The lake scenery is pleasant, and naturally attracts many tourists to enjoy it. The old man sat leisurely on some benches by the lake, looking at the children playing with a kind face. As for the young men and women, they were busy taking pictures.

Of course, there are also some caring people, scattering all kinds of feed to feed the birds, as well as some cute animals. For a while, humans and animals lived in peace, full of harmony.

Seeing this, Wang Guan was also interested in paying for some bread crumbs, and then attracted some pigeons to come and peck at them. Looking at the fat and white pigeons, he was also a little distracted.

With so many delicious ingredients, I don't know if it's better to steam or braised it?

"Fluttering!"

At this moment, a flock of pigeons flapped their wings and flew away. It was not that the animal was sensitive and noticed that Wang Guan was suspicious, but that he had already eaten the bread crumbs, and under the lure of other tourists, he naturally flew to other places.

Man dies for money, and birds die for food. For a while, Wang Guan sighed that these pigeons would definitely not live long. It was not hunted and killed by someone, but killed by the habit of being raised.

These pigeons must have lost their ability to hunt for food every day, and the presence of a pigeon house in the middle of the jungle shows that they are being carefully cared for. But countless examples of cruelty have shown us that it is not only human beings who are born in sorrow and die in peace, but animals are also more or less the same.

These pigeons eat and drink like this every day, and live more comfortably than humans, and their bodies are very fat, and their physiology must have deteriorated, and it is strange that they can live a long life.

"It's a waste."

Thinking of this, Wang Guan couldn't help but shake his head. The best destination for such fat pigeons should be in the pot, and now they are euthanized in vain. It's a terrible thing.

Of course, as a civilized person, there are some things that are good to think about, and there is no need to promote them everywhere. Why is there a distinction between noble and vulgar? It's because there are some things that you can think about, but you can't do.

So now Wang Guan can only look at the white pigeons, no matter how much he drools in his heart, he shows a kind and warm smile on the surface, and even asks Fang Mingsheng to help take a few photos, which can be regarded as a souvenir.

"Is there anything else in the grove?" Meanwhile. Wang Guan was a little curious: "It seems that many people have gone inside. ”

"There's a chapel in there." Fang Mingsheng said casually: "It is said that it was built by some ascetics a long, long time ago, and it has a history of thousands of years. ”

The so-called ascetics are actually perverts.

Well, this word should be a kind of disrespect to ascetics, but in the eyes of ordinary people, ascetics are indeed worthy of admiration, but they certainly cannot accept their practices. To show faith in the Lord, he is willing to give up a superior life. He did not accept everyone's offerings, and went to the deep mountains and old forests, poor countryside and lived a hard and simple life.

The legendary ascetic eats only one meal a day, and that is a piece of black bread. And a little water only. It is through this kind of starvation that one's body is sharpened in order to achieve spiritual sublimation.

Whether it is the ascetics of the West or the ascetics of the East, for their practices. Although everyone can't understand it very much, they definitely admire it very much. After all, compared to a priest or bishop who lived a luxurious life in a luxurious monastery, what an ascetic did was a reincarnation of a saint. There's no reason to be unconvinced.

Even now, Westerners still believe in God and are very religious. But they are mere believers, and they don't necessarily treat religious people very favorably. Perhaps for the sake of God's face, people have more respect for religious people, but it is absolutely wishful thinking to want them to pay for religious people to spend their days and drinks like in the Middle Ages.

However, for the ascetic who has sublimated the spirit, ordinary people still respect and respect, otherwise, it is impossible to come here to visit and admire.

Everyone went to visit, and Wang Guan was naturally a little curious, wanting to see if the place where the ascetics practiced back then was as difficult as described in literary works.

Thinking of this, Wang Guan greeted him and walked towards the interior of the grove. Fang Mingsheng would definitely not stop him, so he naturally followed. A moment later, the two of them came to the grove and immediately saw a very rudimentary building.

On closer inspection, it is not so much a building as a scaffolding, a shed made of wood and thatch. The scaffolding looks fairly sturdy, but it's barely enough to keep out the wind and rain, and it's definitely not comfortable. To put it mildly, such a simple shed is not even comparable to the nearby pigeon house.

Seeing this situation, the two of them couldn't help but sigh, especially Fang Mingsheng, although his religious beliefs were relatively mixed, basically he believed in them as long as they were among the top few religions on the earth. Now when I saw the abode of the ascetic, I was in awe. For a while, the depression in my heart also dissipated in two, and if there was an incense candle next to it, maybe I would immediately burn incense and salute it.

But then again, Fang Mingsheng really dared to burn incense here, and it was estimated that he would be blown away as soon as possible. People's religions do not have the habit of burning incense, and such chaos must be infidels. It was light to blow it away, and if it was in the Middle Ages, it might have been directly dispatched to the Inquisition.

"Wang ......"

Just as the two of them were quite touched to watch the broken shed, a person's call suddenly came from nearby. Hearing the sound as if it was a little familiar, Wang Guan hurriedly looked over and was immediately stunned.

"Mr. Anderson?" Wang Guan was very surprised.

At this time, accompanied by several people, Mr. Anderson walked over with a smile on his face, also with an expression of surprise and surprise: "Wang, why are you here?" ”

Wang Guan hadn't answered yet, but he saw Fang Mingsheng's expression change next to him, and he shouted in surprise: "Hill......"

"What?" Wang Guan was stunned, and hurriedly glanced away, only to see that behind Mr. Anderson, there was a middle-aged man with slightly curly hair and a beautiful beard on his lips.

At this moment, there was a slight embarrassment on this person's face, but he instantly became calm, and then showed a friendly smile, greeted Fang Mingsheng warmly, and even hugged him.

At this moment, Wang Guan thought that Fang Mingsheng would turn his face and push the person away. However, unexpectedly, Fang Mingsheng did resist a little at first, but Wang Guan also noticed a detail, that person seemed to say something in Fang Mingsheng's ear, which made him immediately become obedient.

Or the word "obedience" was used inappropriately, but Wang Guan could also see clearly beside him that Fang Mingsheng's attitude had indeed changed, and his face, which should have been gloomy, now showed a polite smile.

"What is the reason why Fang Mingsheng is not angry?" Wang Guan was a little puzzled.

There is no doubt that this person should be the owner of the castle, Mr. Hill, the object of Fang Mingsheng's visit. Especially when he appeared here, the doorman said that he was not in the castle......

Although, strictly speaking, it is true that Mr. Hill is out and not in the castle. However, upon closer examination, we know that this is an excuse for misunderstanding. And then continue to speculate, a doorman, without the host's signal, how can he casually send the guests away?

Therefore, Mr. Hill is behind the closed-door incident.

With such a simple truth, Wang Guan didn't believe that Fang Mingsheng couldn't guess it, so he was very surprised now, how easily he "forgiven" Mr. Hill......

Just when Wang Guan was surprised, Mr. Anderson was also a little confused: "Wang, you also know Mr. Hill, have you come to visit him now?" ”

“…… Sort of. ”

Seeing that Fang Mingsheng and Mr. Hill were "reconciled as before", Wang Guan did not plan to dismantle the stage, and nodded after hesitation: "Mr. Anderson is the same?" Yesterday was there. ”

"No, no, no......"

Mr. Anderson shook his head and smiled, "This is the first time I've come to visit Mr. Hill, and I'm here with a friend. ”

"Friends?" Wang Guan was stunned, then looked over, and saw that among several people, there was one person who stood out from the crowd, and his temperament was extraordinary and very eye-catching. The man looked like he was about thirty or forty years old, dressed in a proper suit, and exuded the charm of a mature man all over his body......

Of course, that's not the point, the point is that this person doesn't look like a white Westerner. Thick eyebrows, a very neatly trimmed beard, a high nose bridge, and yellowish skin made him feel inexplicably familiar.

"Wang, introduce you."

At this time, Mr. Anderson smiled and said, "This is Prince Abdul from Saudi Arabia......"

"Prince Saudi?"

For a moment, Wang Guan was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized a little. finally understood how Fang Mingsheng and Mr. Hill suddenly "reconciled", obviously because they didn't want to turn their faces in front of the Saudi prince.

Saudi Arabia is a country that is truly rich. As the world's largest oil exporter, in the context of high oil prices, the identity of a Saudi prince must be able to eat anywhere.

Although, in the eyes of outsiders, the Saudi royal family has always been shrouded in a veil of mystery. But it is well known that members of the royal family are in charge of the cabinet and occupy key positions in the oil, military and police departments. The degree of wealth must be far greater than that of the Queen of England.

After all, the Queen of England is only a nominal monarch and has no real power at all, but the Saudi royal family is different, adept at using wealth and royal blood to build a network of relationships between the world's political and business elites.

On this point, Yu Feibai can testify.

During a small talk, he once boasted to Wang Guan that he had met many Saudi princes and princesses. Although Wang Guan expressed disbelief at that time, he also knew in his heart that Yu Feibai should not be lying. You must know that China's oil demand is already the second largest in the world, second only to the United States. With a growing thirst for oil, how is it possible not to have good relations with Saudi Arabia?

As Yu Feibai, it is not a strange thing to know one or two Saudi princes at some banquets. Besides, Saudi Arabia's princes are also notoriously numerous, according to incomplete statistics, there are more than 3,000 people, and it is normal to know a few.

After all, knowing and being familiar are two different things...... (To be continued......)
