The dark night sky suddenly became brilliant because of the aurora. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Wang Bo hugged Eva and Little Lori, leaned on the sleigh and looked at the aurora in a daze.

This time he wanted to surprise Eva, but he was also shocked, and I don't know if this is a gift of roses.

However, the aurora was shocking at first glance, and although I still felt beautiful after watching it for a long time, I didn't have the feeling I had at the beginning.

Just then, someone came up and said, "Hi sir, hello." ”

Wang Bo turned his head to see a thin middle-aged man and asked, "Hey, excuse me?" ”

The middle-aged man smiled and said, "I'm sorry to disturb you watching the aurora, it's beautiful, isn't it?" ”

Wang Bo felt inexplicable, what was this person looking for himself?

However, after all, he Lao Wang is a high-quality talent, so he kept smiling and said patiently: "Yes, yes, I never thought that the sky could be so beautiful, it is simply shocking." ”

The middle-aged man asked again: "Are you traveling from Rovaniemi?" ”

Wang Bo nodded, and he said: "I understand your feelings, when I saw the aurora for the first time, I was shocked and trembled, and at that time I thought that my soul had broken out of its shell and become a part of the aurora. ”

Speaking of this, he extended his hand in a friendly manner: "Tony Jackson, from Texas, USA, but has settled in this beautiful city. ”

Wang Bo shook hands with him: "I am Wang, Chinese, an immigrant like you, but I immigrated to New Zealand." Did you immigrate here because of the Northern Lights? ”

Jackson smiled and shook his head, "No, the more important reason is that I am a dog sled instructor, which is very popular in Finland, and I think I can develop better here." ”

Wang Bo understood this, he looked at the strong man and the queen beside him and said, "Are you here because of the two of them?" ”

Jackson nodded and said, "Although today's game is far from over, I bet that you have won, and the championship is yours." ”

Wang Bo shrugged and said, "It seems that my two children have achieved great results. ”

"Of course, a great result, 155 seconds, that's an impressive statistic." "What's even more amazing is that it's the work of two dogs, which is to say, they're as explosive as cheetahs." ”

Wang Bo said angrily: "Yes, but I don't think they are necessarily champions, as you said, the competition is far from over. ”

"They're definitely champions, it's the record for this event, no dog has ever run 160 seconds," Jackson said. ”

Wang Bo vaguely guessed his plan and said, "Even so, what can it mean?" It's not a serious race, maybe it has something to do with the low weight of my dog's sled. ”

Because of Christmas, the competition is not very competitive, and everyone participates in this event for fun.

So, instead of trying to make the results better, the racers were enjoying the festive atmosphere, where the owners were basically driving the sleds.

In this way, the weight of the sled pulled by them is naturally much smaller than that of the strong men, and it is much easier to run.

After a break in the game, it started again, and a new group of dogs ran over, and Eva went to the stats table to look at it, and came back and whispered, "The first place in this group is 182 seconds." ”

Only then did Wang Bo understand how powerful Zhuang Ding and the Queen were, they did not win the opponent, but crushed the opponent!

So, he looked at Jackson and said, "So, you didn't just come to us to say hello or congratulate us, did you?" You want to buy these two children from me? ”

Little Lori was anxious when she heard this, and hurriedly hugged Zhuang Ding and the queen: "No, no, no, no!" Don't sell the strong man and the queen, otherwise I will cry every day! I'm never going to school again! ”

Zhuang Ding also whined, his head drilled into the arms of little Lori, the queen blinked, it didn't understand the current situation, and continued to sit calmly aside.

Jackson said, "If you're willing to make a bid, I think I'd definitely like to talk about it in good faith." ”

Wang Bo smiled and said, "No, we don't bid." ”

Jackson interrupted him and said, "I guessed, these two dogs are not professional sled dogs, you are just tourists, they are so good, you usually treat them as relatives, right?" ”

Wang Bodao: "That's right, this is our relatives, we love each other. ”

Jackson nodded in understanding, and said, "This is probably the best dog I've ever seen, and the fact that a kid can go so fast on a sled shows that they're not doing their best." ”

"What do you mean?"

"In sledding races, dogs don't just have to drag the car to run, they also have to pay attention to the balance of the car. That's why the lead dog is so important, it should pay attention to choosing the route and protecting the owner behind, and part of the dog's energy is used to avoid overturning. ”

"I came to you with no idea that I could buy these two dogs, because I knew it was unlikely, and my primary purpose was to invite them to the Edita Rod Dog Sled Race!" ”

The Editarod Dog Sled Race, which is the World Cup in the industry, is a marathon in dog races, and only the best racing dogs can enter this race.

According to the rules, if you compete, each team has a sled driver and sixteen dogs, and then sets off from near Anchorage and hauls the sled to Nome, which is 1,161 miles, or 1,868 kilometers!

The event originated in the winter of 1925 when Nome was plagued by diphtheria, an acute infectious disease that raged in the city and needed a serum to save lives.

A shipment of diphtheria serum was transported by train from Anchorage to Ninana, where it was hit by an ice and snow storm that damaged roads and blocked traffic.

In this situation, some brave locals stepped forward, they took the serum, and in the way of a dog sled relay, they ran 1,125 kilometers without sleep, and transported it to Nome as fast as possible, saving at least five hundred lives.

At the time, it was front-page news around the world, but later outside of Alaska, most people outside of Alaska forgot how those 20 brave men and their dogs saved hundreds of lives.

In the 70s of the last century, the International Dog Racing Association dug up this incident, in order to commemorate the brave behavior of the beginning, but also to commemorate the earth-shattering dog sled relay action.

In 1973, the event was launched and is the most popular and high-profile event in Alaska.

Unlike today's competition, the Editarod Dog Sled Race was a fully professional event with a huge prize pool, with the winner receiving more than $1 million.

"The record for this race is eight days, 22 hours, 46 minutes and 02 seconds, set in 2002 by Mr. Martin Bass, and it has been frozen for more than 10 years, and I think if your dog participates, this record can be broken!" (To be continued.) )
