Chapter 130: The World of the Poor
Jack continues to try his love. That night, he borrowed a neat suit and went to a nobleman's dinner. This dinner was of a very high grade. Almost all the nobles on the ship will go.
Before the dinner, Carl sent someone to inform Lin Yang and the Demon Girl. For this wizard, Karl still hopes to win it over.
Lin Yang only replied with one word: not interested! He didn't like that kind of pretending to be flirtatious, maybe it was noble, but Lin Yang knew that he and the Demon Girl didn't belong there. This is not to belittle the aristocracy, the nobility has good qualities, though. What is the saying? Whoever watches a movie in the upper class is so vulgar, he--everyone plays it really! So, Lin Yang doesn't like to be around some people who are too hypocritical, that's it!
Where will they go at night? That's the question the Shapeshifter asked him. Today, the demon girl is as happy as a child.,Unrestrained play.。
At night? Lin Yang told her that in the last class at the bottom of the ship, there was another world. A world for the poor!
They came into the world at this moment.
It's less than a third of the space here. The air was filled with the smell of tobacco, alcohol and sweat, a group of poor strong men and young women were laughing and playing, some were singing, some were playing the accordion, and the beds were cramped and sloppy. However, the atmosphere here is very casual, with a mix of blacks, whites, Latinos, and Indians.
When Lin Yang and the Demon Girl walked in, the noise stopped all of a sudden.
Everyone's eyes turned to the two of them.
Everyone saw a Chinese wearing a long trench coat carrying a beautiful white noblewoman, and immediately froze. The Demon Girl and Lin Yang glanced at each other with a smile and walked in directly.
It's getting quiet here.
Lin Yang smiled and shook his head, he looked at everyone's eyes, and didn't care, but walked to a place where cards were played, where there were a few strong men, bearded, and on the table in front of them, there were beers, a little banknotes, and a bunch of coins. One of them looked at Lin Yang and took a deep puff of his cigarette.
"The kind of play?" Lin Yang reached out and picked up a coin, rolling it in his hand.
"Blackjack." Said with a smoke ring. He paused for a moment and said, "Want to have some fun?" ”
Lin Yang looked at him, shook his head with a smile, and said, "I can't play cards, but" he said as he played with the coin, "However, I can do magic, I can make this coin float in the air." ”
"Haha." Everyone who heard Lin Yang's words laughed.
"Magician?" The strong man looked Lin Yang up and down again, and said with a smile: "Then why don't you show it." Let's take a look. ”
Lin Yang looked around, and everyone was looking at him. Maybe in this era, people are still more interested in magic.
Lin Yang threw the coin in his hand upward, and just as the coin fell rapidly, Lin Yang's index finger stretched out. "Brush!" The coin was like a brake in the air, and it froze all at once!
Then it hovered in front of the crowd and drifted back and forth.
"Oh my God," exclaimed the crowd. If it's magic, it's also very NB close-up magic, where all the magic happens right in front of people's eyes.
The audience was silent, and the strong man with a cigarette in his mouth swallowed and spitted at the mouth, and snuffed out the cigarette in his hand.
The coin suspended in the air, drifting in the air, slowly floated past everyone's eyes, everyone. It went in a big circle.
Finally, he came to a little girl not far from Lin Yang. The little girl was a white man, who looked like she was four or five years old, with brown hair and big blue eyes. She was now clinging to her mother's arms. Keep an eye on this floating coin.
Take the coin right in front of the little girl's eyes. A strong curiosity drove her to reach for the coin.
"Lucy," Mom shouted softly behind her, then grabbed her hand back.
The coin was still floating in front of her, Lin Yang walked over, squatted in front of the little girl, and asked softly, "What's your name?" ”
"Lucy, Lucy. Jona. The little girl said in a childish voice. What a cute little Lori.
"Do you like this magic?" Lin Yang asked.
Lucy nodded vigorously. Lin Yang reached out and touched her head. Smiled and turned around, and the coin suddenly flew around Lin Yang's body.
"Wow!" Everyone was amazed again!
"Bang Bang!" I don't know who took the lead in applauding, starting from this applause, soon there were more and more applause, and after a while, the audience was thunderous.
Lin Yang smiled and looked at the Demon Girl, then he looked at the coin, which gently returned to the table.
"This magic trick isn't bad, right?" Lin Yang asked the strong man in front of him. The man stroked his stubble, nodded vigorously, and said excitedly, "God, this is incredible, who are you?" ”
At this time, Lin Yang turned to the entire cabin and said, "I am a magician from the East. Come here today and hope to dance and drink with everyone."
"Great, let's be lively~~~"
A voice came out. Instantly, everyone began to laugh and sing. Lin Yang and the Demon Girl also enjoyed it. Although this is the world of the poor, it is a world of joy, a world of unrestrained!
For a while, the sound of collisions, fights, dancing, and singing was practiced aside. Many people gathered in front of Lin Yang and asked him how the magic trick had changed. Lin Yang said: "This is the secret of the magician. "Some people say that if you perform this magic trick in New York, you can make a lot of money. Lin Yang smiled but said nothing.
In the middle of the cabin, someone danced a traditional Scottish country dance, which was very lively! The Demonic Girl happily ran to the middle and jumped with everyone. Scottish country dances can be divided into pas de deux (including horn flutes), gigs and strasbeys based on the accompanying music. The first two of these (also known as fast-step dances) have fast tempo, light movements, and cheerful feelings.
"Come on, let's jump!" After a while, the demon girl ran back and grabbed Lin Yang.
"I won't" When Lin Yang was in college, he refused to dance. This may also be one of the reasons why he couldn't find a girlfriend in college.
"Jumping blindly." The Shapeshifter smiled and said, "Neither will I. ”
Since the demon girl was happy, Lin Yang had no choice but to follow the music and jump up! Scottish country dance is a social dance that requires frequent interaction with your partner and other dancers, such as smiling and holding hands. The dance is said to have been around for 300 years, but the emergence of new forms has made it difficult to summarize their characteristics.
Lin Yang danced for a while, he was really difficult to control this kind of dance step, his learning ability was much worse than that of the Demon Girl. The dancing demon girl memorized it once she saw it, and was soon able to jump with ease.
Looking at Lin Yang's messy steps, the demon girl laughed out loud. He said to Lin Yang: "It seems that the 'King of Ten Thousand Controls' also can't control it. ”
Lin Yang shrugged helplessly and said: "I don't want to 'show my eyes' anymore, this time I ruined the image of my magic just now, you jump, I'll have a glass of wine next to me!" ”
The Shapeshifter was in a good mood today, she danced for a long time and drank a lot of wine. The two of them have been playing late at night. They also became acquainted with the crowd and mingled.
Late at night, Lin Yang saw the demon girl's figure shaking, and knew that she had drunk too much. So he picked her up and walked out of the cabin at the bottom. Helped her all the way back to her room.
"You, why do you drink so much?" Lin Yang directly picked up the demon girl. Shaking his head, he asked. In his impression, whether it is a movie or a child who follows him, he has never seen the demon girl drink too much.
"Happy" Demonic Girl's tongue is a little big.
"Hehe, okay, just be happy." Lin Yang said as he walked.
"I think I'm the happiest girl right now."
"You will be happier in the future." Lin Yang said softly.
"I'm going to be with you all the time"
"That's for sure."
The two of them spoke and returned to their room. Lin Yang put the demon girl on the bed. She whispered a few words, rolled over a few times, and gradually fell asleep.
Looking at the charming sleeping demon girl, Lin Yang smiled and said to himself: "In Chinese mythology, those who can change will show their original form if they drink too much, but you are fine."
He walked over and covered the Shapeshifter with a quilt. After that, he turned and left the room and locked the door. Lin Yang is not sleepy now, he wants to go to the bow of the boat to see the night view.
As soon as he went out, he ran into Jack. It is estimated that he has just finished attending that luxurious aristocratic party. Jack looked a little listless, and he didn't think he was in a good mood today.
"Lin~~" After Jack saw Lin Yang, he smiled and said hello.
"Go, accompany me to the bow of the ship, and blow the sea breeze." Lin Yang patted Jack on the shoulder. Jack nodded and followed Lin Yang.
Prow. The icy sea breeze of the Atlantic Ocean blew on the faces of the two of them.
"I don't think your face is good. How? That aristocratic party isn't happy? Lin Yang asked.
"Alas~~" Jack sighed, shook his head and said, "I don't want to hide it from you either, I think Ruth and I are people from two worlds really." ”
"Then you now answer the question I asked you yesterday, do you like her very much?" Lin Yang turned his head and asked.
This time Jack didn't deny it, he nodded affirmatively.
"That's good." Lin Yang said: "Then what you have to do now is to pull her out of that nobleman's cage." Ruth is a bird that longs for freedom, and even if the bird is beautiful, if it is kept in a cage for a long time, it will slowly lose its vitality and eventually die. ”
"But," Jack wanted to say. He didn't want to do that. It's just that his identity is too far away from Ruth's identity to that he doesn't have the courage.
At this time, Lin Yang interrupted him and continued: "You don't always take it for granted what you get? What should you do for yourself? If you don't work hard, you won't get results, will you? ”
Jack stopped talking, and he looked up at the dark sea level
"I'll leave here tomorrow," Lin Yang continued, "I hope you can use tomorrow to win Ruth"
After saying this, Lin Yang turned around and left.
"Hey Lin, this ship is still a few days away from reaching New York, where are you going?" Jack asked, puzzled.
Lin Yang's back just waved his hand in the air
