Section 54 Fire at the city gate and the crocodile
He is the Demon King of Killing. The deepest part of his soul is bright red blood, which is the most cold and violent killing. He has never seen blood kill anyone during this period. His murderous intention is vaguely out of control. The Death Sacrifice Star Sword hissed in a low voice, trying to drink blood.
But Yun Luo controlled himself and really watched the excitement. Seeing that the Nine-level man killed another level 6 and two-star level 8 combat power, the last two level 6 peaks ran away without hesitation. This was probably the gentlemanly demeanor of the British. The Nine-level man did not chase him, but just left quietly.
Yun Luo looked at it for a while and did not move. He chuckled about half an hour later. The ninth-level existence had really walked away at this time. Yun Luo returned to the hotel, but was silent. No one found that Yun Luo had ever disappeared.
Koala likes to play and explore the nearby scenery. Yunluo only realized that the lake area is very large. Although there is public transportation connection in the middle, when Yunluo joined the tour group, he found that there were very few buses to connect. He only saw it once during the itinerary for a whole day. Moreover, the entire lake area has undulating mountains, staggered heights and narrow roads.
It's also weekends, so it's hard to see such good weather in the lake area. British people drove themselves to visit. There were cars in both directions on the narrow mountain road. Many times they had to give in to each other to pass. However, they saw many well-equipped cyclists on the road, but the risk factor was self-evident.
More importantly, for those who are new to the Lake District, there are many paths in the Lake District and the area is extremely wide. The height drop between the upper and lower altitudes is absolutely impossible to complete the journey by riding within two days.
The old man’s hotel has many rules and is not allowed to take food to the room. At first glance, the hotel is an old building that is quite clean. Yunluo’s room is very narrow, with a small single bed and an aisle, a very small shower inside the room, followed by half a desk and a washbasin.
The small window in front of the desk can directly see the train station, but it is extremely inconvenient for people to come and go, so the curtains are usually tightly pulled. After a while, Yun Luo carried his bag on his back, followed the little koala princess, carrying a map to start visiting the town. The town is beautiful and quiet. Although the private cars on weekend trips are almost filled with the streets, you can still imagine the quiet scenery on weekdays.
The shop is filled with formatted toys, some exquisitely decorated cafes and simple restaurants, all of whom are leisurely, couples, families, or friends, laughing and cheering, and ordering a bottle of beer, which is so pleasant.
This is a very small town. Following the crowd, Yunluo unknowingly walked out of the town and headed towards Kendall. The road was almost straight. Later, Yunluo tested it and could reach it in about 35 minutes on foot from Kendall. There were all kinds of hotels along the way, some of which were large in size, but they were all residential.
The cutest thing is the various blooming flowers. The British seem to love beautiful gardens wherever they are. No matter how large the land is, they will plant various flowers or cute plants, which will make the clouds colorful and brilliant along the way. Koala also pulled Yunluo to take a lot of beautiful photos.
It is not difficult to find that basically every household in the lake area is engaged in tourism. There are many exquisite small buildings along the way, and the rooms look very beautiful. Most of the doors are full of luxury cars for passengers, and the doors are labeled full. There are all kinds of cars along the way, and sometimes I occasionally see a few supercars.
Unlike in China, domestic supercars are usually young people who are innocent or beautifully dressed women, while in the UK they are all middle-aged men. What is more worth mentioning is that sometimes you will see one or two old-fashioned sports cars with bright colors and very well-maintained sports cars. Their eye-catchingness is far higher than those modern streamlined supercars.
And the British seem to be keen on such classic vintage car styles.
Kendall has more tourists than small towns, and most of the shops are larger. The closer they are to the lake, the more stores selling ice cream, with a wide variety of flavors. Many of them are under the banner of British handmade ice cream. As a domestic tourist, Yunluo couldn't help but tempt to taste one, but he didn't know how to explain it.
Compared with such handmade ice cream, it is actually a bit more delicious. Kendall is on a higher terrain and can already see the blue lake in the distance. The lakeside is crowded with people. Many people just sit on benches, stone steps, or lawns by the lake, gnawing on ice cream.
Some feed swans in the lake, and the flying terns boldly grab food from the swan's mouth. There are families on the lake rowing in groups of three or three, and there are couples walking by hand in front of them. However, most of them are small families. Young couples bring their cute children, and most of them are dressed in personality and run in front of their parents.
British parents are not as worried about their children as in China. Yunluo often sees children who are only two years old playing in the distance, but their parents are still walking slowly behind. Even if the child accidentally falls or runs to the lake to see swans taller than them, their parents will not rush to stop them.
Yunluo thought, maybe the ability of Westerners to think and the concept of independence can be reflected in the family's attitude towards children since childhood. A little sister and sister wearing a green skirt and a cute hat were watching the swan screaming excitedly, and the one who brought them seemed to be their grandfather, but the little girl turned her head and surprised Yunluo.
The sniffle almost overflowed into his mouth. Yun Luo ran up and gave the grandfather a tissue. When his grandfather saw it, he was surprised and immediately wiped off the little sister's mouth and the transparent gelatin around her nose, and then said with a smile that she had just finished eating ice cream.
When he walked to Kendall's residence, Yunluo saw the most unpalatable Chinese cuisine mentioned earlier that the family had eaten in his lifetime. Yunluo also encountered the same situation in France. What disappointed Yunluo was that many Chinese people who had long been rooted overseas did not bring the true culture and real food of China.
Instead, using cheap gimmicks and rough materials to fool foreigners who come in and try it, they are really unwilling to accept that most of the Chinese flavor overseas are just like this.
It was the first time I tried the famous British dish fish and chips in a street-side fast food restaurant in Kendall. At first, there was no sauce like others. When the fish and chips were delivered to my hands, the crispy chips exuded a fragrance, and large pieces of fish were wrapped in fried starch.
After a few days of baptism in the UK, Yunluo has basically gotten used to food that has no taste, used to light and tasteless sandwiches or roasted chicken with barbecue sauce. Sometimes it doesn’t even have a basic saltiness. This was an unbearable thing for Yunluo in the past. No oil or salt makes the food look like chewing wax.
But after walking and eating for several days, Yunluo felt relaxed and happy. It can be imagined that the oil and salt of traditional Chinese diet really brought a lot of burden to daily life. However, Yunluo didn't know that at that time, she dived open the shell of the fried fish and tasted the fish meat.
Yun Luo's face immediately became ugly. The fried fish inside had no moisture or tenderness, and even no saltiness. There was only a fried smell and the fishy smell unique to sea fish. There was no way, so he went into the store and bought a large portion of curry paste. He went all the way and ate it, and felt a little slow.
But even during such a saving trip, Yunluo lost most of this fish and chips. When Yunluo and Koala returned to the hotel, it was still early. It seemed that tourists from Asia would love this hotel in particular. It seemed that the rooms next to Yunluo were filled with Indians, and they could still hear them chatting at night.
Although it was still dark in the lake area, as soon as it was dark, there were almost no pedestrians on the road. Yun Luo also tightened the curtains, and only the barking of dogs from other families could be heard outside.
Most of the time I stayed in bed, Yunluo would listen to music and try to slowly fall asleep. In most cases, Yunluo had no dreams during the journey. He always woke up. The sky was just dawn, but Yunluo could no longer sleep, so he had to wait for dawn.
I got up early and had breakfast in the hotel. Each table in the small restaurant belongs to a different room. Yunluo's table is at the corner of the wall. When I sat down, the shopkeeper asked Yunluo what food he wanted. Of course, Yunluo ordered a more sumptuous full set of English breakfast and white toast. The bacon in British is obviously not the same as the one in China.
The domestic bacon is tender and thin, mostly with a lot of white oil that melts by heating, but the local bacon in the UK is thick, with a high proportion of essence and chewy meat. Of course, it is full of pork flavor. Generally, a piece of bacon has to be chewed for a long time before swallowing it whole.
So Yunluo secretly decided to exchange more bacon for breakfast, but she didn't expect that this also created another small episode in the trip. There are 4 routes provided by the hotel. After a quick look, Line A seemed to pass through more natural attractions such as lakes, waterfalls, etc. Yunluo chose Line A.
Perhaps because the lake area was very busy on the 6th day of the week, when the owner of the hotel told Yun Luo that the driver and tour guide of Line A were the boss's grandfather, Yun Luo couldn't help but sweat. First of all, he was so old that his legs were not flexible, so it was hard to imagine that he had to explain while driving.
At the same time, during the two days of getting along, although the old man was still polite, he could feel the stubbornness and difficulty of communicating with the elderly. Of course, Yunluo also discovered the fundamental cause of these problems during the trip.
Except for Yunluo and Koala, the other passengers on this route were 2 groups of Indians from different places. Coincidentally, a group of Indians, led by them, wearing a sky blue turban, was obviously a Sikh. He worked as a surgeon in London. This time he took his friend who was a doctor in India and his girlfriend to visit the Lake District.
Another group of Indians are from India engaged in health consulting. During the drive, they talked about the old man saying that he was once a military doctor. With Yunluo Koala, the people in this car were almost all people in the pharmaceutical industry. Later, on the way, two fat girls from the United States who joined were actually researchers in the Medical Compounds Research Office.
The old man drove very fast and was obviously a little anxious. While saying that he had never seen the lake area so busy, he was walking through the mountain path.
Taking advantage of his experience in traveling in the Scottish Highlands, Yunluo specifically asked his grandfather to let Yunluo and Koala sit in the front seats, so that Yunluo can enjoy the scenery more widely through the colorless car windows in front, and can take a few photos through the glass from time to time. Later, when organizing the camera, it proved that Yunluo's choice was wise.
The beauty of the Lake District is no less than that of the Scottish Highlands. The stone-stacked roadbed has an extremely long history. Even in the wilderness, the roads are flat and well-built, unlike Yunluo's western region, where the road surface is rugged and there are even roads.
The vehicle passes a high slope and turns. Perhaps there is a blue lake in front of me. It is dotted in the sun, bypassing a small tree ridge and slowly rolling up the mountain. The quiet lake water is right at hand. Do the tall trees block the open view, but there is an elegant beauty of being in the forest.
At the time, it is the open grassland, which is still dotted with cute white black-faced sheep, and the graceful and ancient branches are also particularly beautiful in this colorful world.
Along the way, the old man kept making the same jokes as us, "Look, this area is not allowed to be built after being bought by Miss Porter. Look, there is no boat, no Chinese restaurant, and no Indian food, how great it is." The same statement was made when passing another bend of lake.
Although he didn't care much at that time, because he was old and could see that it was very hard to do this job, and Yun Luo also knew that such an old man had to prepare breakfast for us early in the morning, and then such a hard day was really not easy, so as long as he spoke, Yun Luo always nodded and praised, supported him to continue talking, and put on a focused attitude.
This trip lasted until the afternoon. The old man answered a few calls, which roughly meant that two girls were going to join us halfway through, so the old man put us down in a nearby town and asked us to have a meal. After arranging time, he hurriedly returned to pick up the guests.
The place where we parked was a lovely nursery, with all kinds of flowers and ornaments placed inside, which was very cute. Through the garden and a white restaurant, Yunluo and Koala walked straight to an ancient church. The church was old and very small in scale, but a big figure was buried here. Yunluo walked towards the inside of the church. The towering trees in the garden almost blocked the strong light, and the inside was staggered and many crosses.
The tombstone is not in this garden, but has to climb down the steps and walk down the garden. Under a very tall fir tree, there is a simple tombstone that cannot be simpler. It is engraved with his most famous poem "Narcissus". The tombstone is opposite the shore, and the quiet river flows through him.
He looked up at the church and became a bridge, and rays of sunshine shone on this quiet corner. This is the beautiful and quiet world described by this poem. Even his favorite daffodils are still blooming around him, year after year.
Koala ordered a piece of chocolate Browning and sat at the walkway table in the small cafe, but the beauty around it made people feel that it was a waste to seal yourself in the house and have afternoon tea. Staying in the bright outdoors, the gentle wind and bright sunshine, everything is so cute.
The gathering time was approaching, and Yunluo and Koala returned to the flower garden near the parking lot. The Indian tour was already back in groups of three or three. Until the gathering time, they did not see the tour guide's grandfather's car. While waiting in idle, Yunluo was still not idle. He pulled out his camera to take pictures of the little flowers in the flower garden one by one.
But perhaps because of the strong light, Yunluo found that it was difficult to create a sense of difference between the prospect and the background and depth of field under strong light. The Indian fellow travelers were very enthusiastic. Seeing Yunluo taking photos there alone, waved to Yunluo to signal Yunluo to pass by. The Sikhs with blue heads spoke first. He was curious about how Yunluo knew about this place and came alone.
Another fellow traveler asked Yunluo, traveling was really cool, and he wanted to run like this. Then Yunluo turned to look at his wife, smiled terrifiedly and said, "Oh, no, you can't."
Since Yunluo is an Indian movie fan, Yunluo asked curiously about Indian movies. They were very happy to talk about movie stars with Yunluo, but their love for Indian movies is not as high as Yunluo imagined. I believe they are more willing to watch Hollywood blockbusters now.
Another girl said that she saw a TV show broadcasting a group of Bollywood fans in China. They could sing songs from Indian movies and chase stars crazy. Yun Luo really heard of this, that is, they called the famous movie star Sha Rukh Khan Shasha.
It took half an hour to wait before we saw the old man’s white van appear. We all got on the bus in groups of three or three. The old man’s car was very strict and we were not allowed to touch the door. We had to open the door before we could get on and get off. At that time, a fellow Indian traveler reminded the old man: You are late.
The old man looked very calm and said that he had arrived as soon as possible because the distance was too long. After getting on the bus, we learned why the old man was late. There were two more American girls on the bus. Later, they were all very cute people. Although the tonnage was large, they were all optimistic and cheerful.
The old man seemed to have no guilt for letting a large group of us wait. However, when we visited the stone circle, the old man kindly said sorry to the two American girls, and they had to wait for them for a long time when they went to pick them up.
But what Yunluo couldn't understand was that he used our effective itinerary to take on additional business, but instead had no intention of apologizing for our delays. He felt a lot of apologizing for the passengers who joined the trip, which was really uncomfortable.
All the following things did confirm such a thing, but Yun Luo realized it later. Along the way, Yun Luo was still thinking that the old man would not have lunch when he ran back and forth like this. Every time he announced his free activities, Yun Luo suggested that he eat something earlier. He felt very arrogant and said: I ate very little, don’t eat much, and don’t like to waste my time on eating.
At dusk, we finally returned to the hotel. The Indian travelers also drove their own cars back to the hotel where they lived. The American girls also drove back to their homes. Yunluo was hungry and turned around and ran to the cafe in the center of the town. He ordered a pizza and started to chew.
The experience summarized along the way told Yunluo that in European countries, ordering sandwiches and pizza is the most reliable and economical way to eat. The taste will not be too surprising, and the price will not be too surprising.
Yunluo and Koala were about to leave the lake area the next afternoon. In the morning, Yunluo just used breakfast to prepare to store her luggage, went to the train station to buy a return ticket, and then walked to the lakeside of Bonis to sit for a while until she said goodbye to this lovely place.
The traditional English breakfast includes beans, potato cakes, bacon, eggs, tomato mushrooms and toast. On the last day, Yunluo got up early to serve breakfast. Or the shopkeeper's grandfather came to ask whether Yunluo wanted white toast or black toast. Yunluo ordered white toast, because Yunluo mentioned earlier was unacceptable to the local bacon.
So Yunluo told his grandfather that Yunluo wanted a full set of English breakfast, but he just wanted to change bacon to fried eggs. The grandfather said with a straight face, if you change bacon to fried eggs, it would not be a full set of English breakfast. You have to order one by one, that is, do you want potato cakes? Do you want beans? Tomatoes? Mushrooms?
So Yunluo reported the other things in the British breakfast according to the old man, and just said the bacon as eggs. The old man walked away. However, after Yunluo finished eating the food on the plate, Yunluo's toast did not come up. After a while, the old man ran up and said, "Do you don't want to be toast?" Yunluo thought that these were full enough, so he shook his head, no need."
It seems that four Chinese girls moved in upstairs yesterday and were also having a meal downstairs. The girl who was the leader was responsible for ordering dishes. As a result, she encountered a problem similar to Yunluo. The old man must ask the girls to order the items in the set meal one by one, but they can't say which one is not needed, or which one is replaced. Yunluo could only lower his head and shake his head.
He carried his luggage down from the second floor and placed it at the front desk, and then started walking to the train station. However, what surprised Yunluo was that it was already 9 o'clock, but there was no staff at the train station. The station door was wide open, but he didn't know where to buy tickets. Just when Yunluo was in a state of turmoil, Yunluo saw an old lady wearing a red vest, silver hair, kind-looking and kind-looking old woman, with beautiful light green eyes.
Yunluo stepped forward and asked her why there was no one at the train station. Yunluo wanted to buy a ticket. It was not until she spoke that Yunluo realized how old she was. She was dressed neatly. In addition to the bright red vest, she also had a very delicate pin on her chest, leaning on her crutches. Because she was old, she spoke very slowly and had a hoarse feeling that was unique to the elderly.
The old lady replied: Oh, is there no one in the station? I live in the village next door. Of course, it is not too far from here, but I am not familiar with the train station and want to come here to buy some salads, but it seems that the store has not opened yet.
Yunluo suddenly realized that maybe the person who needed help now was not Yunluo, so Yunluo quickly ran to the supermarket next to him to look at it. Sure enough, the lights in the supermarket were dim, and there was no one, and the door was closed. Yunluo turned back and told the old lady that the supermarket was not open either.
The old lady said: Oh, that's really bad. You can go to the visitor center to ask them, but even if you don't have a ticket, you have to get on the train. Do you understand? Dear? Yunluo was sweating coldly at that time. Yunluo said that Yunluo had just come from the visitor center and there was no one in the visitor center. She thought to herself: Of course you have to take the train, but how can you take it if you don't have a ticket?
British people are generally very polite when driving. When they see someone on the roadside who wants to cross the road, they will stop and wait for passers-by. Sometimes, even if it is a red light that cannot be walked for pedestrians, a vehicle will stop and signal the pedestrians to pass first. When it comes to this matter, we must give the thumbs up for the British humanistic qualities.
However, there will be exceptions for such courtesy, or when it fails. The busiest thing in the lake area is the weekend, which is the holiday time for the British people. If the lake area is a rare and good weather, then the roads in all sizes in the lake area are full of traffic, crowded and anxious, and eager to arrive at the destination.
After waiting for a while, there was still no car willing to give up the car to cross the road. With the energy of stopping a car in China, Yunluo waved the white strategy in his hand, walked out half of the body, stopped the car coming, and gave a thumbs up to express his gratitude to the stopped car, and helped grandma cross the road step by step. After getting off with her, Yunluo turned back and ran all the way to Bonis.
It was still the same as Yun Luo's first time reaching Bonis, the river was full of tourists, and there were boats floating on the lake. Yun Luo found a bench with the sun on his back and sat down next to the swans. After careful observation of Yun Luo, he found that the swans were not as elegant as people always described. It was understandable that the beautiful long necks were always bent in a curve.
The small head and white wings showed a greedy personality in front of tourists from time to time. Yun Luo also saw a few little swans whose gray hair had not yet faded. Although their figure was no longer much smaller than that of adult swans, as long as there was food from tourists and the little swans wanted to peck at them, the adult swans would bite him and drive him away with their mouths.
However, the lethality of the swan's beak is indeed higher than Yun Luo imagined. There was still half a pizza in his handbag that he had not finished yesterday. Yun Luo walked to the swan group and took out the pizza wrapped in plastic wrap from the bag in plastic wrap. However, when the pizza just shook the swans' eyes.
What Yunluo saw was a group of swans standing up one after another, and then grouped up towards Yunluo. Although the speed was not fast, each of the greasy little heads with long necks stared at the greasy pizza in Yunluo's hand. And only when Yunluo was so close to her was that the adult swans stood up and raised their necks were probably as high as their chest.
A large group of people approached Yun Luo in this way was really a little scared. The one closest to Yun Luo was obviously the leader's swans. Before Yun Luo could open the seal, he bit on the plate with his mouth. Yun Luo carefully tore the plastic wrap. He took out the pizza. I wonder if he smelled the smell, but the swan group took a big step forward.
Yun Luo tear off a large piece and was about to feed it to the swan, but unexpectedly, he used his beak to use Yun Luo's fingers as sausages. After repeated strokes, Yun Luo's fingers were rubbed off a large piece. However, the swan who had eaten the food became more and more bold. Before Yun Luo could tear off the food, he was already tilting his head to grab it.
Yun Luo was panicked and swung the pizza out. As a result, the pizza was naturally killed instantly. Yun Luo's actions of running away in a hurry also made everyone laugh. I wonder if this was considered to be robbed by a swan. Koala stood by the side and watched with a smile, but she didn't come to help. Yun Luo looked at the little princess's smile, and she also smiled gently in her heart.
As long as she is happy, it's fine.r1152
