Chapter 49: The Poet

"Shoko, you should have only been a backpacker for a short time, right? Is this time going to the Great Smoky Mountains? ”

Qin Longxiang was not shy, and knew everything, "Well, I'm still a college student." This time, I took advantage of the fact that my studies were relatively small, so I took a leave of absence to try it, and I usually walk around the city. The destination of this trip was planned by a few classmates for me, saying that the scenery there was good, and the distance was moderate, which was more suitable for novices like me. ”

"And you also learned these from them?"

"Of course, I mainly experienced this time, and I didn't have a lot of budget like spending my parents' money. If you can take a ride all the way, you can save a lot of money and it will be more pure. Unfortunately, even in the United States, where backpackers are most prevalent, many federal states have begun to impose legal restrictions. Some local governments would also sue for obstructing traffic and things like that, and I remember the arrest and imprisonment of a hitchhiker in New Jersey in 1946 that led to the intervention of the American Civil Liberties Union. ”

"Well, I've heard of that too." Ji Xin chatted while driving: "Many places prohibit hitchhiking, and safety is an important consideration, because the case of a small number of hitchhikers being killed is too high-profile, coupled with the negative media coverage, planting seeds of distrust in the hearts of the people."

Even in states and cities where the law permits, today's drivers are more afraid of hitchhikers than before, and some personal opinions are that they are afraid that something will happen to them, which should be for those developed countries, they started early, and there are many reports of danger, while for China, China has only started to become popular in recent years, and basically the cars I have taken are not dangerous. This is also a common delusion of many people who come to the United States to travel, thinking that it is easy for Lao Mei to take a ride. ”

"Also, the United States is flooded with guns, and the danger factor is much higher than that in China. But along the way I recorded what I saw and heard, at least I experienced the real world, I experienced, if you only encounter beauty, nature is good, we should travel with good thoughts, but the world is varied, real stories, let me have a right to know before choosing. In fact, travel is the same as life, how can it always be happy and smooth sailing? Qin Longxiang seemed to be a little touched, and moved closer to the poet as he spoke.

"I'm also enjoying being on the road and planning to find some time to do a road trip. I like a sentence very much: Even if you are sad and sad, don't be sad, because you don't know who will fall in love with your smile" Ji Xin envied the other party's youthful impulse, and bravely chased his dreams.

……

There is always a happy time to talk about, and in the second half of the journey, Ji Xin almost didn't feel like he had returned to his own territory, and he could almost be sure that he had arrived at the door.

"Shoko, the town has arrived. This is the most complete market nearby, if you continue to travel, just follow those tour guides, pay a fare or something, they won't mind" Ji Xin is a good person to the end, all the way to the place where the tourists gather.

Bidding farewell to Xiangzi, who wanted to have a meal, and changed his contact information to invite him to visit his ranch by the way when he came back, Ji Xin hit the steering wheel and finally returned to the familiar road.

"Hey, Thomas, how's it going?" Within a few minutes of driving, he saw the supervisor who was driving the herd on horseback, and he was obviously in a good mood when he kept shouting and shouting to the cowboy next to him.

"Boss, you're finally back. Tomorrow the Ministry of Agriculture will send someone down, and the nearby farmers are almost negotiating, just waiting for you to sign? ”

"Well, I know, so I deliberately rushed back early" Ji Xin quickly brought himself into the role of a great character who sacrificed his leisure time for ranch work. Of course, others don't know that the ranch is actually his, such as Thomas, who has a more playful look.

Boss Ji, who originally planned to cordially comfort the employees, finally couldn't resist the pressure and hastily moved amid the good-natured laughter of everyone. "This is what I want" Ji Xin muttered as he looked at the cowboys who were busy again in the rearview mirror.

The aristocratic life is only suitable for vacation or experiential living, and if you want to maintain your demeanor all year round, I am afraid that people who have not been trained since childhood will go crazy. This is also the reason why the proportion of people with depression in the UK is far higher than in other countries, and every gentleman actually pays a lot for grace and praise.

Thinking of this, Ji Xin's impulse to agree to George's request was reduced a little, after all, it was a lifelong event, and young people's psychology would inevitably loosen. Lisa wouldn't have said yes even if she was here, right?

When I got home, the roaring engine resounded in the sky, this is the modified vehicle as for what muffler will be installed in its exhaust pipe, don't think about it at all, the most primitive engine roar comes out, when the car is running at high speed, it will reach about 130 decibels, comparable to the loud sound of a cannonball, close listening, enough to deaf the ears!

All the people who didn't go out frowned when they heard this, Nancy covered her ears and ran over and knocked on the window, angry "Xin, what are you doing?" Turn off the car, those little ones are going to rebel! ”

Looking from Nancy's fingers, the horses in the stables were irritating, and they were barking incessantly, and the hooves of the bowl-sized horses were raised from time to time as if they wanted to come to a duel with the noise-trembling ones. I didn't expect to lose my mind for a while, causing such a continental mess.

Ji Xin hurriedly pulled out the key and walked out of the car door under Nancy's silent reprimand. There's no way, the horses in the family are usually taken care of by her, and they look like their own children. He saw with his own eyes the woman whispering while bathing the horses.

"Children, don't be afraid. Mother is coming......" Watching Nancy soothe the frightened horse, the man also squatted next to him with great interest to study. No wonder animals are spiritual, these guys don't have a good face when they see themselves, but they slowly quiet down when they see Nancy.

"This is too discriminatory" Ji Xin, who felt injured, hurriedly ran to the other end of the stable, and his own Jack didn't know what to do? When I looked at it, I was worried about it. This guy was not frightened by the loud noise at all, but leisurely ate the forage, and from time to time stretched out his big head to rub the mare next to him, and when he saw the master coming, he snorted unhappily. It looks like that, it's about getting ready for a love affair across the stables.

When she ran back to tell her about the situation, Nancy was also surprised. He frowned and thought for a while before he came to the conclusion, "I should have smelled your scent and knew that it was the master who had returned." That's why you're not as scared as other horses, and besides, if you usually ride an all-terrain vehicle and run around with it, you probably have long been used to it. ”

Ji Xin happily accepted the difference of his mount, and as for the ridicule in Nancy's tone, he deserved to praise it. Anyway, I expect Lao Mei to learn to pat on the back, and probably wait until the flowers are gone.
