Why does the ghost market in Nanjing open after midnight 12? What does it sell?

Facts are stranger than novels. Even in today's advanced science and technology, there are still many phenomena in the world that people can't explain. Those supernatural mysteries are also attracting people's attention.

Although many places are called taboo places, there are still a large number of explorers going to pilgrimage every year, either to satisfy their curiosity or to find legendary treasures.

The legendary treasure has great power from heaven to earth, bringing back the dead, eternal life and unifying the world ... What our ancestors have been pursuing since ancient times, even if everyone is educated, still has great attraction.

In Nanjing, there is such a mysterious night market that comes and goes without a trace.

Only at midnight will it be bustling and crowded, and at dawn, the previous prosperity will disappear instantly, as if it had never existed. People call it "ghost market" figuratively.

A well-known secret

Ghost market is a well-known secret in Nanjing. The local people are secretive about its existence, but when you ask about the existence of the ghost market, people will tell you a few words.

As a result, the mystery of the "ghost market" has been exaggerated more and more, and more and more people have come to the "ghost market".

It is understood that the "ghost market" is mobile most of the time, but the highest frequency is the East Gate of Chaotian Palace in Qinhuai District.

Some people also say that the "ghost market" is big and small, and the "ghost market" at the east gate of Chaotian Palace is the biggest and most mysterious.

The opening time of Ghost Market is strictly fixed at 12: 30. It is said that this time is the time when the door of Yin and Yang opens, which was called noon in ancient times.

At this moment, the intersection of Yin and Yang is the most cloudy moment in the world. It has also been said that the reason why the "ghost market" chose to open at this time is to hide people's eyes and ears and facilitate transactions.

In any case, the opening time of "Ghost Market" also adds a bit of legend to this mysterious market.

The ghost market must end before sunrise. After the sun comes out, everything will disappear without a trace, just like a ghost can't face the sun, Yin and Yang will no longer meet, and the two worlds will return to normal order.

Unexpected transaction

The "ghost market" is not only mysterious in opening time, but also makes people want to find out about its transactions.

The "ghost market" transaction is different from previous transactions.

First, what you see in Guishi is absolutely not available in the ordinary market. In other words, you can't buy anything in the ghost market without you.

From ancient books to wenwan to copper coins for food stamps, even embroidered needles a hundred years ago, old handkerchiefs used by so-and-so celebrities, and rotten newspapers to read ... "Ghost market" is not an underground antique market in a simple sense. Some people regard what they find in the "ghost market" as a treasure, while others scoff.

Love or not depends on personal preference.

In the "ghost market" transaction, there is an unwritten rule: the source of Mo Wen, the buyer must leave a hand.

In the ghost market, you can only see the mysterious gestures of buyers and sellers behind the weak light source of the flashlight.

Occasionally, I heard a few vague whispers, and all that remained was people's footsteps and gasps.

In an instant, whether it is treasure or scrap iron has already been decided.

Wandering in the ghost market, you won't feel what era you are in. You can see the bronze style of Xia, Shang and Zhou Dynasties. Under the torch light, the three colors of the Tang Dynasty shone brightly, and the blue and white porcelain of the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties made a crisp sound in many utensils ... There were colorful pictorial pictures of celebrities in the Republic of China, white fox shawls of warlords' wives, sewing machines in the 1980s ... and even Nokia at the beginning of 2 1 century ... It seemed like a carnival of the times, and history was intertwined here and now. And you, just one of the passers-by.

Trading is like life is a big gamble.

There are basically two kinds of buyers who linger in the ghost market: one is a man with a walnut wrapped in pulp and an orange cigarette in his mouth. Such people are generally experienced people.

They often haunt the "ghost market" and know exactly when and where there are good goods. A casual look at the things on the booth will tell whether they are genuine antiques or genuine industrial products.

In the transaction, it is even more agile. Within one round, kill the price to the position where you are satisfied and the boss is satisfied.

The other is young backpackers, most of whom are curious young people from all over the world. Rather than coming to Taobao, they came for sightseeing and experienced the mysterious atmosphere of the "ghost market".

Under that kind of atmosphere, go with the flow, looking at that one like an antique, looking at this one is quite charming and generous.

But what is helpless is that after dawn, the "baby" who came back from playing carefully found the shoddy "industrial joint line", and even the mysterious green luminous pearl that emanated in the weak light of the flashlight yesterday became full of plastic feeling.

Trading in the "ghost market" is like a person's life, three points are doomed and seven points are all luck. Between success and failure, it's just a gamble.

Times: "Ghost Market" is different.

Ghost market is not a product of the new era. As early as ancient times. The "ghost market" was originally set up specifically for grave robbers from all over the country. War is the most common thing in the era of war.

The army needs a lot of money to go out to war, and these expenses are far from enough to rely on taxes, so they set up their own official "grave robbery" gang, commonly known as Yin soldiers. Steal gold and silver treasures from ancient tombs around the country to supplement the supply.

In addition to the Yin soldiers, ordinary people are also extremely greedy for the gold and silver treasures in the tombs, but the property they stole cannot be traded blatantly in the market, and can only be resold in hidden places like Shi Gui, which also confirms the unwritten rules of Shi Gui from another angle.

Now, the tomb raiding group no longer exists, and there is no such thing as ghost soldiers. The ghost market has become a mysterious flea market.
