Encountered the legendary "Black Lady"
I don't know how many people know about Yunnan, a mysterious, beautiful, rich and remote land, but I know that many people have heard of Yunnan's mystery, beauty, richness and remoteness. Because the media is so powerful now.
But in 1957, when my grandma and grandpa were transferred to work and brought their family from the capital Beijing to Yunnan, they didn't know anything about the city of Kunming, Yunnan.
After settling down, my grandma felt it necessary to go to the streets and alleys of Kunming to get familiar with the local customs and people.
So she set off with great interest, without worrying about the late sky.
You know, although Kunming is not a big city, the streets are also winding and uphill, and there are rows of shops with ethnic minority styles on the roadside, which makes people dazzled. In addition, the roadside is full of green trees and the fragrance of flowers is hazy. My grandma unknowingly forgot the east, south, west and north.
When the sunset gradually darkened, my grandma realized that she was lost.
She was very surprised that she ended up in front of a big temple while walking on the street. The temple door was closed, but she could still smell the strong smell of incense and candles. Under the street light, my grandma saw a person.
It was a woman wearing strange clothes. She wore a black shirt with wide sleeves and a large collar. The cuffs and collar were embroidered with white trumpet-shaped flowers. She wore a black and red skirt with layers of stitching. She also had an apron tied around her waist, which was embroidered with dark and strange patterns.
The clothes were very old, but they were washed clean.
The woman had very dark skin, but bright eyes and a thin face.
When she saw my grandma coming to her to ask for directions, she stared at my grandma with burning eyes. Her expression seemed a little nervous and a little - anxious. Yes, anxious. ("Strange, what is she worried about?" My grandma was thinking as she asked her for directions in Beijing dialect and gestures.)
The language must not be very compatible. My grandma gestured with great effort and looked at the road. She only saw a few lines of English letters p, upp~i_es, trying to find someone who could understand her question.
However, there was no one on the street, as if it was already midnight, and there was no one in sight.I could only see the dim yellow street lights, which made the road hazy..........$BTC $DOGE
