Chapter 967: Homecoming
It's winter again, and time is gone in the blink of an eye. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
News came from the JFK console that northern Montana had been enveloped by a cold air mass moving south these days, and it met the southern hot air mass, producing several days of snowfall.
The runways of Billings and Snow Mountain Ranch are covered in snow and cannot land normally, and it is not yet known when the alarm will be lifted.
Unable to make it home that night, the plane took off as usual and landed in Cheyenne, the state capital in the southeast corner of Wyoming.
The captain piloted a Boeing 777 to send Han Xuan and them, and then hurriedly flew away, because a snowfall was coming, and if he didn't leave, the plane would be trapped here and unable to leave......
It's still the mid-90s, and the greenhouse effect isn't that bad.
In the winter in the United States, a single snow in several northern states can pile up to tens of centimeters high.
Twenty years later, it's hard to see a similar scene again, and if you want to see super snow, you have to go further north to Canada.
Today, the only way to get back from Wyoming to Montana is by train and helicopter, and even the road is impassable.
So he contacted Old John overnight and asked him to arrange a helicopter from the ranch tomorrow morning to come and pick him up, because it is not safe to fly at night on a snowy day.
casually found a small hotel next to the airport that was not up to the grade, and made do with it for a night, and Han Xuan also asked people to send Fat Ding, Pooh, and McDull from Los Angeles by Gulfstream plane overnight.
The next day, five helicopters parked in succession in the open space around the airport, filled up their fuel and boarded the plane, and then set off again, heading northwest.
Fat Ding came from warm California, across half of the United States, suddenly exposed to the weather hovering at zero degrees, so cold that he couldn't stand it, and at the moment he shrank in the arms of his master, Meow Meow complained and wanted to go back.
Han Xuan hugged it and ignored it.
The fat man has a lot of fat, and he is not afraid of the cold at all, and he understands that the fat man is just playing petty.
In his heart, he was thinking about the old Labrador pudding, and the happy time of walking the dog and herding sheep when he was a child, all of which came to his mind, and he didn't forget even the smallest details......
I never thought I would be separated from the animals, as if they were supposed to be there all along.
But what species can truly be immortal?
Even the ancient spruce tree in Norway's Furugalette Mountains, which has a lifespan of more than 9,500 years and took root at the end of the last glacial period, will eventually fall.
In the distant future, humanity may live longer and may be able to truly find a way to be resurrected and reborn, but not now.
The average life expectancy of modern humans exceeds that of most animals and plants, and Han Xuan lives longer than Fat Ding.
If it weren't for the slow growth of the fat ding, it would have spent about a third of its life by now.
I heard that if the male cat is castrated, he can live for two more years, but if he really does that, Fat Ding will now jump off the building to die.
At the moment, he was worried about whether one day in the future, they would leave like pudding.
The mood suddenly became depressed.
Last winter's weather was a bit extreme.
This year's snowfall is significantly lower than last year's, there is still a lot of vegetation exposed, and the fast-flowing Mori River is still flowing.
After flying for about two hours in a row, it reached the sky over the snow-capped mountain pasture.
The middle of Lake Rota is not completely frozen, and you can see some small black dots on the frozen surface of the lake, presumably tourists who have come to fish.
The small snowflakes flying all over the sky are still falling.
Hot air balloons couldn't take off, and the good news was that after a few months of closure, the ski resort was open to the public again.
The temperature was about minus seven degrees, and when Han Xuan stepped out of the helicopter, he came into contact with the cold wind brought out by the spiral wings, and immediately shivered.
Treading on a snowflake less than 30 centimeters thick, I came to the door of my house.
The heating was turned on in the house, and the leaves of the rosewood tree in the center of the living room were still there, but a little yellow.
This tree, which is native to the tropics and subtropics, is really unbearable to the cold weather in Montana.
Hearing people's laughter, Han Xuan turned his head to look out.
When the giant panda Little Barry saw the snow, he was crazy with joy, lying in the snowdrift and rolling, while Snoopy, Black Panther, and Pooh were also playing in the snow.
The painful memories left by last winter are too deep, and when they heard that they were coming back in the morning, they were not happy, and now they have swept away their complaints, and they have played so fast that even the fat ding is moved to run out.
The home has hardly changed, what it looked like when I left at the beginning of the year, and what it still looks like now, compared to what I remember, only the TV and carpet have been replaced.
As soon as Han Xuan entered the door, Joanna walked over and said with a smile on her face: "I haven't seen you for a few months, you've grown a lot taller, the last time I watched "Who Can Be a Millionaire Show", I thought you had become taller.
I wanted to participate before, but when I was on the phone, I was asked a question, and I didn't get the first question right, who knows how many bars there are on the American flag?"
Han Xuan thought speechlessly, he couldn't answer such a simple question, and he still wanted to participate in the competition, so let's wash and sleep early, how could the prize money be so easy to get.
I heard Joanna ask if I wanted to drink something, and said, "Bring me a cup of black coffee, I woke up too early in the morning, I'm a little tired."
Also, the American flag has a total of thirteen stripes, and the next time you participate in it, answer them like this. ”
"Forget it, if I can't answer a simple question, it will be very embarrassing, I still feel at ease to be my nanny.
Your parents are not at home, why did you choose to come back at this time?"
"What, where do you want to be lazy and don't go to work?"
Han Xuan took off his coat and sat lazily on the sofa, looking at Joanna.
"No. ”
Seeing that her careful thoughts were instantly seen, Joanna quickly denied it and said embarrassedly: "I just think the scenery in Australia is very beautiful, and it's still summer, you should go there to play." ”
"I'll talk about it when I have time, maybe I'll actually go there in the near future.
Old John told me last night that the pudding was dying, and that I was coming back to see it......"
Joanna couldn't understand.
I had read in the newspapers before that Han Xuan's private jet trip cost more than $100,000.
This time I hurried back in a hurry, but it was just to see the dog that Old Patton raised?
She has only been working for a few years, and she doesn't know that Pudding was a "bodyguard" all day long, taking Xiao Han Xuan around, and she couldn't understand the emotions between him and it.
Not knowing what to say, he went to the kitchen coffee machine and picked up a small cup of black coffee, according to his habit, without sugar or milk.
It will taste bitter in the mouth, but it can be refreshing.
After Joanna put it on the coffee table, she told Han Xuan, "It seems to be gone." ”
Han Xuan's expression was shocked: "It's dead?!"
Joanna hurriedly shook her head: "No, no, no!"
I'm not saying it's dead, it's just gone.
Old John had come to look for the dog just now, and said that the pudding had suddenly disappeared in the morning, and asked if he was ...... here." )
