Chapter 389, Lucky Gift
Although he didn't continue to shoot videos, Ye Kai walked down the street with a camera, obviously with an oriental face, looking 100% similar to those tourists around him.
So it is natural for Ye Kai to be regarded as a tourist.
On the way towards Toning Lake, Ye Kai met two young Icelanders, a man and a woman, both about twenty years old, wearing the same couple hat.
"Are you a tourist from China?" she asked.
"Yes, I flew from Huaxia to Iceland a week ago and came here, but I'm curious, why do you think I'm a Chinese?"
After traveling for so long, it was the first time that Ye Kai heard a strange foreigner ask him if he was from Huaxia, and he used to ask him what country he was from.
The girl said: "My grandmother is from Huaxia, and she told me a lot of stories about Huaxia, and I felt very kind when I saw you just now, so I guess you must be from Huaxia." β
That's right......
But even if I'm from any other country, you will feel familiar when you see me...... Ye Kai smiled, without the anxiety of being disturbed by the trip, and there was no nervousness about being accosted by strangers.
"I see. β
She smiled and looked at the boy...... Ye Kai felt that the two were likely to be a couple, because looking at their completely different appearances, the facial lines of the girl with Chinese blood were obviously softer.
The boy took out a small box from his backpack and handed it to Ye Kai and said, "This is a handicraft made by our school itself, some of which are basalt pillars, and some are models of snow-capped mountains. β
Ye Kai took the box and looked at it, there was no logo on the box, it was all white, and he wrote the Icelandic name of the Icelandic University with a marker.
So this is a handicraft made by the students, right?
"Give it to me?" Ye Kai asked.
The girl nodded and said, "Yes, every month we pick the ten best models made in the previous month and give them to strangers on the street." β
Ye Kai remembered the residence card in his pocket.
But I'm going to leave Iceland after three months, so I'm probably a tourist, and I don't work or go to school here......
Originally, Ye Kai didn't want to accept things from strangers, but when he thought that this was a handicraft made by Icelandic students, he instantly fell in love with it.
Although they didn't know what was inside, it didn't affect Ye Kai's ability to feel the feelings of the production for them and the friendliness of the students to tourists.
The tourism industry in Iceland is polarized, with those who think good trying to make tourists feel the most welcoming Iceland, and those who feel bad feel that tourists are destroying Iceland's nature and want to get Iceland back to its former state.
In fact, it is not because they don't like strangers, but there are too many tourists who do not obey the local laws, trample on the moss on the seaside stones, camp illegally, defecate in the open, and destroy the scenery.
Ye Kai solemnly put it away and said, "Thank you for the gift, I will definitely treasure it, this will be the most precious gift for my trip." β
Do you see a lot of tourists coming to Iceland every month?
There are too many, especially in August and September, when there are even more tourists than residents of ReykjavΓk.
To be selected by them at this time to become a tourist with only ten quotas...... It's like being kissed on the cheek by Lady Luck, it's amazing.
Luckily, I went out today, and luckily I went to the zoo first...... Ye Kai thought to himself.
Soon they went to find other lucky tourists, it seems that this month's small gifts have not been sent out yet, and after they disappear around the corner, Ye Kai continued to walk towards Toning Lake.
Ye Kai held the small box he had just gotten in his hand.
It looked about the size of a box containing a small cake, but when I opened it, I found it to be an ashtray made of stone...... They carved this stone into a mountain peak, which was supposed to be a spring in front of it, which was changed to a circular concave bottom.
Back...... Well?
Ye Kai lifted the stone carving, put it in front of him and looked at it carefully, the lines on the back of the mountain actually faintly carved the face of a giant.
"A giant of Norse mythology?" he muttered.
Because he didn't know what the production team thought, Ye Kai couldn't guess who this face was, and could only guess whether it was someone who appeared in mythology.
It's just that such a good handicraft is really ...... for soot
Maybe it's not soot, maybe it's something else, but Ye Kai is reluctant to put anything, he wants to take this thing back and put it on the bookcase as a decoration.
Later, when a friend comes to the house and asks curiously where this thing came from, I will slowly tell the story of living in Iceland.
Thinking about it like this, Ye Kai's whole person became comfortable even with his hair.
When they arrived at Toning Lake, the local tyrant tourists still bought expensive bread to feed the swans and ducks, and Ye Kai also went to buy one, tearing it apart little by little and throwing it into the water.
A few ducks quacked towards Ye Kai's feet, and the swan craned his neck to look at it, and when he saw that there was no place for her, he ignored this side.
How can a noble swan grab a loaf of bread with a flock of ducks?
Ye Kai squatted down and chattered while feeding: "One loaf of bread you eat is enough for the ducks of our country to eat for a week, you have to know how to be grateful, do you know?"
"Quack!"
"Hahaha!"
Ye Kai himself laughed, what do you want this group of ducks to be grateful for?
In fact, there are many kinds of animals that can understand their own speech, but they do not include ducks...... If it was said to the dog, maybe the dog would directly start licking Ye Kai's palm to express comfort.
Birth is really important, and in many places, ducks are one of the food for humans, but in Iceland, wildlife is protected just like humans.
The ducks in the lake, born here, grow, fall in love, die......
There will be no worries for the rest of their lives, and even if they are to leave Toning Lake to see other places, no one will try to catch them.
"Gah?"
Ye Kai was in a daze, and after hearing the duck's prompt, he pinched his left hand a few times, and looked down to see that the bread had been fed.
He opened his left hand to the ducks: "No, you go find someone else." β
"Quack!"
Watching them squeeze around, Ye Kai was in a happy mood and sat on a bench by the lake to rest, by the way to see if there were any pictures worth shooting.
The benches at Lake Tonin are well-deserved benches, as if several benches are connected together.
Ye Kai sat on it and watched the swans gather around to grab food, and their huge bodies automatically formed a circle, blocking the black ducks out.
I actually know how to work as a team.
At this time, an old man sitting next to Ye Kai said: "I saw you feeding the ducks, they seem to like you very much, do you have any tricks?"
"The trick?"
"yes, every time I feed them, they just stare at the bread in my hand. β
