Chapter 19: Sunrise in the East
Going out of the lake to see the sunrise is a traditional local tourism project, so after the two returned to the inn, the innkeeper routinely introduced, and the two found that there was a whiteboard in the front desk of the inn, with prices and routes on it, which was quite affordable, but the price difference between the two routes was not small as usual.
Liu Zichen chose the closer route as usual, according to her experience, no matter what route, the final experience is actually the same, and multiple choices are just a means of profit for merchants. Tourists often have a strange mentality, the more expensive the better, the longer the line must be the better, this may be a misunderstanding.
The proprietress naturally recommended: "The one with the far route can watch the sunrise from the lake, and the one with the closest route can only be seen from the side of the mountain, do you want to think about it again?"
Liu Zichen shook his head and said that it didn't matter, Chen Tianyu was even more silent, and the proprietress had no choice but to give up when she saw this.
Back in the room, the two of them almost fell asleep, today is really tired, although it is interesting, but after all, I can't resist the sleepiness, until four or five o'clock in the morning, the door was suddenly knocked.
Chen Tianyu squinted sleepily and got up to open the door, only to remember that he had made an appointment to watch the sunrise yesterday.
"Uh, pretty early, guys?" he said casually.
The waiter smiled slightly: "We have to take a boat out of the lake, so we have to be so early." ”
"Oh, I see. Chen Tianyu subconsciously thought of the small fishing boat docked by the lake, daring to love that it was not for fishing, but specially prepared for tourists to enter Lugu Lake to watch the sunrise.
Chen Tianyu smiled: "Our route is close, there is no need to get up so early, right?"
The waiter had already turned to leave, and he didn't reply when he heard the words: "No matter how far or near the route is, it is all on board at this time." ”
Chen Tianyu smiled dumbly, he woke up Liu Zichen, and after the two hurriedly washed, they rushed to the lake. The sky is still very dark, the whole scenic spot seems to have no street lights, many tourists can only play the flashlight of their mobile phones, coming from all directions, bustling, the scene is quite spectacular.
Most of them were obviously still in a trance, looking like they hadn't woken up.
The staff did not drag, out of the voice to greet everyone to board the boat, after a brief inquiry of the route, people of different routes each took their own small raft and set off, the beginning of a section of the journey several boats are still parallel, close to look a little dangerous, the roar of the engine into the ears, the cold morning breeze whistling on the face, so that everyone instantly sobered up, there are a few people who are slightly worse, all began to curl up, resist the cold.
Chen Tianyu saw a flickering red dot on the side of the road from a distance. The fishing boats began to diverge, and several of them headed off into the distance, but the boat they were in approached the red dot, which became clearer and clearer, and faint smoke could be seen rising, which turned out to be just a bonfire burning on the shore.
When the fishing boats dock and the sun is gone, the fire becomes a sought-after entertainment, and tourists come to keep warm.
Standing by the fire, a middle-aged woman was wearing a scarf with a visible wrinkle on her forehead, probably in her forties and fifties. She watched all this coldly, almost without squinting, and only by chance did she glance up at everyone.
Chen Tianyu thought: The bonfire should have been lit by her.
Liu Zichen didn't rush to the fire, but subconsciously hugged his arms and said, "It's really a little cold." ”
The middle-aged woman was not far from her, her ears seemed to be quite sensitive, and she took the initiative to glance at her when she heard the words, her eyes were much softer, and even with a hint of inexplicable warmth.
Chen Tianyu's heart moved, and he quietly took back the right hand that had just stretched out and was about to hug Zichen.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
When getting off the boat and landing on the shore, it was about five o'clock, but after an hour, the sun was not visible, many tourists anxiously asked, but the middle-aged woman did not say a word, just silently added some firewood to the fire, the tourists saw this, and thought that she could not speak Mandarin, so she could only give up, but complained without a word.
The shore is very spacious, and there are only a dozen tourists who choose to watch the sunrise here, except for a few crowded around the fire, in fact, everyone is quite far away. Liu Zichen also went to the fire, but Chen Tianyu walked over slowly, consciously getting closer to the middle-aged woman.
Sure enough, the middle-aged woman glanced up at him.
Chen Tianyu wasted no time in asking, "Eldest sister, you should have to wait another hour for the sun to rise, right?"
The middle-aged woman did not answer.
Chen Tianyu continued: "It seems that the other viewpoint is far away, otherwise there is no need to leave so early. Maybe the other boats haven't docked yet......"
"It won't take long, it's going to dawn soon. The middle-aged woman finally spoke, and surprisingly, she not only spoke Mandarin, but also quite standard.
Chen Tianyu looked into the distance, he looked at the big island farther away, and the side of the mountain was quite high.
"I think by the time we can see the sunrise here, it will be very bright. ”
The middle-aged woman seemed to smile: "Young man, you are still quite smart." ”
Chen Tianyu didn't say anything, and the middle-aged woman continued: "How do you know?"
"I can probably figure it out. Chen Tianyu said lightly.
"Heh......" the middle-aged woman said with a smile, "You come to our Lugu Lake, don't you plan to find a young and beautiful girl?" ”
Chen Tianyu was slightly stunned, and said truthfully: "I have a girlfriend, you have also seen it." ”
"What's the matter, our Mosuo tribe is married, and you don't have to be responsible. The middle-aged woman had a rather indifferent expression, "Young man, don't miss the beautiful scenery." ”
Chen Tianyu hesitated, and the middle-aged woman took the initiative to hand over a business card.
She smiled: "Whoever you like, you can call me, and I will let you get your wish." ”
Chen Tianyu took it, didn't even look at it, and immediately hid it in his underwear pocket.
"Uh......" Chen Tianyu said hesitantly, "Last night, I had a lot of fun at your bonfire. There was a girl who impressed me......"
"You're talking about Iroh Kucker?" said the middle-aged woman, raising her eyebrows, "There are too many people who have taken a fancy to her, and there are long queues." ”
Chen Tianyu was surprised: "Knotker?...... Didn't you understand, is she a foreigner?"
The middle-aged woman said happily: "What kind of foreigner, knot is her surname, which means the house by the water." We Huli people, except for a few villages, rarely use Han surnames. ”
Chen Tianyu was stunned, he said: "So that's the case." At the moment, I'm a little interested in this girl named Yiruo, and I don't pay much attention to the rest...... If there's no hope, forget it. ”
"It's not necessarily hopeless. The middle-aged woman was a little embarrassed and said, "Don't look at the many people who pursue Yiruo, but she has always rejected people thousands of miles away, maybe ...... Even if she's waiting for you, I can't tell. ”
Chen Tianyu couldn't help laughing: "I'm afraid it's not very likely." ”
The middle-aged woman shook her head: "Young man, you have to believe in fate. ”
She didn't wait for Chen Tianyu to answer, and said decisively: "I'll help you ask, don't be discouraged, you call me before tonight, and I will give you a clear answer." ”
Chen Tianyu was stunned, he suddenly felt a trace of panic for no reason, but finally held back, and his strong curiosity quickly took over.
"Okay. He concluded.
