I trembled as I said, "I saw him in Backstreet Alley."
"At that time, the shopfront was a red wooden building."
"A red wooden building?" The Old Mayor was taken aback. "Where is there a red wooden building around here?"
"This entire back street is lined with dark blue tile-roofed houses!"
Hearing this, my emotions became complicated.
Indeed!
This whole back street is filled with dark blue tile-roofed houses. Where did that red wooden building go?
As I pondered this, Wang Zhan suddenly spoke up. "Old Mayor, don't rush to conclusions."
"I want to ask, are the houses in Li Family Dam all Brick-Concrete Structures?"
The Old Mayor nodded. "That's right!"
"All the houses here are Brick-Concrete Structures."
"However, after the great fire seventy years ago, all the buildings were destroyed."
"When they were rebuilt, every house was constructed as a Brick-Concrete Structure."
Upon hearing this, my feelings grew even more complex.
If that's the case,
that red wooden building is very likely a structure from seventy years ago!
No wonder I can't find it here!
If that's true,
the old man I saw at that time really was the late Old Tailor?
Just as I was lost in thought, the Old Mayor spoke again.
"Miss Yang, I want to ask, have you been having nightmares frequently lately?"
I nodded. "Yes."
The Old Mayor sighed. "It's all because you wore that Wedding Dress!"
I was stunned. "Wearing a wedding dress can also lead to nightmares?"
The Old Mayor explained, "If it were an ordinary wedding dress, there would be no problem."
"But the issue is that the wedding dress you wore was made from the clothing of a dead person!"
What?
Clothing of a dead person?
Hearing this, I was completely bewildered.
No wonder that wedding dress was on me!
No wonder I had been having that nightmare every night!
It turned out that everything was because of the clothing of a dead person!
As I pondered this, the Old Mayor spoke again.
"Miss Yang, I want to ask if you could take that wedding dress to the Old Tailor's grave and burn it?"
"As long as it disappears, your nightmares will vanish too."
Upon hearing this, my feelings became complicated.
To be honest, I didn't want to burn that wedding dress.
Because it was simply too beautiful!
But I also didn't want to continue having that nightmare!
At that moment, Wang Zhan suddenly spoke up. "Miss Yang, I think you should listen to the Old Mayor's advice."
"Although this wedding dress is beautiful, after all, it is made from the clothing of a dead person."
"If you continue wearing it, you're bound to attract more trouble."
Hearing this, my emotions were mixed.
Although the wedding dress was indeed very beautiful, I still didn't want to keep having that nightmare.
With that thought in mind, I closed my eyes and took a deep breath.
Finally, I made up my mind.
Burn it!
At the back mountain of the Li Family Dam.
According to the Old Mayor, the grave of the Old Tailor is right here.
But strangely enough, he didn’t lead us directly to the back mountain; instead, he took us to a picturesque spot.
There, the Old Mayor lit three sticks of incense in front of a solitary grave.
Then he pointed out to us that this was the burial site of the Old Tailor!
Looking at the low earthen mound before me, a strange and unsettling feeling surged within me.
Because not long ago, I had seen this Old Tailor!
Yet now, he had been resting here for over seventy years!
Wang Zhan prepared an iron basin in front of the grave.
Meanwhile, I held that exceptionally bright Wedding Dress, filled with hesitation.
