Chapter 120: Set Sail
The Oman Sawar plane is located in the territory of the largest country in the South Asian subcontinent, India, in the state of Khalinakham.
Located only 200 kilometers away from New Delhi, the capital of India, it is hidden deep in the mountains and mountains, and it was only in modern times that it was accidentally discovered by a shepherd boy while grazing his sheep, because the local valley was covered with Omani grass, which goats love to eat, and was named Oman Sahua.
A hundred years ago, less than a week after the discovery of this new plane, the first group of plane pioneers organized by the Indian government to explore deep into Oman Sawa, only to be surprised to find that the other end of the original plane passage was also hidden in the dense mountain forest.
Therefore, without any armed conflict, the expedition team easily obtained hundreds of kinds of exotopic native plant seeds, ore specimens, biological genetic sampling and other precious resources.
The Indian government then quietly began a predatory exploitation of Oman's Sawa and eventually alarmed the indigenous regime of the Elephant State a few years later, leading to the outbreak of full-scale wars.
However, after the two sides were at war for a long time and gradually got to know each other, they were surprised to find that the social structures of the two countries were strikingly similar.
For example, in India from ancient times to the present, from slavery to elected government, in thousands of years of historical evolution, Brahmins, Kshatriyas, Vaishyas, Shudras, and the lowest Dalits, who are called untouchables, the five caste systems have never changed;
Even though 'equality of all people' has been written into the constitution for hundreds of years, it still happens from time to time that high-class women are lynched by family members and have their heads cut off because they elope with men of the landed caste;
And Oman Sahua through the plane channel to the Indian border of the Elephant Country. In the civilization that has been inherited for thousands of years, the people are also strictly divided into four classes: many emperors, many nobles, many ministers, and withered people. Intermarriage between castes is not permitted;
And like in ancient India, there were many emperors who served the gods by law. Duofan can be a general, Duofan can be a soldier or engage in secular scholarly work, and Kufan can only be a farmer and a slave.
For another example, the Indian belief worships multiple gods, from the three main gods Brahma, Vishnu, Shiva and their various incarnations, spouses, child gods and guardian gods, to various personified nature gods such as Indra, the god of thunder, and Vayu, the god of wind.
From the god Ganesha, the god of animals and plants, such as the monkey Hanuman, to the deified ancestors, heroes, and elves such as Manu, the ancestor of mankind, and Kupila, the god of wealth, there are hundreds of gods, and each state, province, city, village and town has different beliefs.
And the Treasure Elephant Kingdom is known as tens of thousands of gods in the heavenly realm, and it is also a cumbersome god system with many beliefs. According to legend, it is not uncommon for dozens of different temples to be built in a single city.
What's more wonderful is that although the national emblem of India is the three golden lion stone carvings on the top of the Ashoka stone pillar of the Mauryan Dynasty, it is known to the whole world, but the animal that can best represent India is the elephant.
And the reason why the Treasure Elephant Country was named the Treasure Elephant by the earthlings. It is precisely because the banner that symbolizes royal power is painted on a huge beast with a long nose and terrifying fangs, which looks almost the same as an elephant on earth.
All of these coincidences make the Elephant Kingdom look like a replica of India's ancient times, and India may well be what the Elephant Kingdom will look like in the future. Such a strange scene that can be regarded as a historical corridor is the first and only case in the world, and it is also the source of the legend of the Oman Sahua plane.
I don't know how many times I read Aman Sahua's information carefully. Zhang Longchu put down the tablet and groaned for a while, then touched the phone again. I asked for the phone number of Kuching Airport from the information desk, dialed it,
When the phone was connected, he asked directly, "Excuse me." What time does the fastest direct flight to New Delhi depart? ”
"Sir, please wait a moment, let me check..."On the other end of the phone, a pleasant female voice paused slightly, and replied politely: "There are only three direct flights to New Delhi every week, but there are flights to New Delhi in exactly two hours, you..."
"That's it, there should still be a ticket now, I'll pass on my identity information and money to you right away, okay?" A little impatient with the slow and logical attitude of the female voice, Zhang Longchu interrupted her.
"Of course you can, but now there are only first class and business class and air tickets..."Hearing this, the female voice on the mobile phone replied softly, and after receiving the information and ticket payment transmitted by Zhang Longchu through the Internet, she thanked and said: "Mr. Zhang, thank you for using the service of Kuching Airport.
Your e-ticket will be sent to your phone in 5 to 10 minutes...", and then hung up.
After putting down the mobile phone, Zhang Longchu, who finally decided to end his dormancy and planning, and made up his mind to open up a new dimensional battlefield, suddenly felt an inexplicable sense of ease and impulse to try, and couldn't help but stand up and move his muscles, and was about to jump into the pool to swim two laps to have lunch, and then rush to the airport, when he suddenly heard his phone 'Ding Ding Ding...' ringing.
Bending down and touching the mobile phone and looking at the screen, seeing that it was a familiar name, Zhang Longchu immediately answered the phone: "Good afternoon, sister, is there something wrong with me?" ”
"It's nothing, I just want that today is Saturday, and my tutor in the afternoon was canceled because of the main grandmother's birthday, so I want to ask if you are free, let me satisfy my desire to teach." On the other end of the phone, Li Xian'er replied with a smile.
Hearing this, Zhang Longchu hesitated for a moment and said in a low voice: "I'm sorry, Sister, I just booked a plane ticket and left for New Delhi, India in 2 hours." In recent months, he has been staying in the suburbs of Kuching with nothing to do, and he has seen Li Xian'er almost every 3 or 4 years, which is really not like the relaxation that a farmer who works hard for life should have.
In addition, as the saying goes, the dwelling and qi nourishment and transfer body, a person who is worth hundreds of millions of dollars in the open, secretly holds a strange thing that can be called a treasure, and has evolved into a silver life, even if he does not like to show off, but there must still be many subtle differences between the tenant farmers at the bottom of the society.
If you spend less time together, this difference may be ignored by unintentional people, but if you meet three or twice a week, it will definitely leave all kinds of flaws.
It is precisely because of this realization that Zhang Longchu wants to take the opportunity of going to India to take the initiative to reveal that he is not a farmer, so as not to be directly questioned by Li Xian in the future, which will be more embarrassing.
And things were exactly as he thought, after Li Xian'er heard the answer, she was silent for a while, and did not question why Zhang Longchu, a poor tenant farmer, suddenly took a plane abroad, but asked astringently: "Then when will you come back?" ”
"In one or two months, I'm going to explore the Sava plane in Aman, India," Zhang Longchu said in a low voice: "Sister, I'm sorry, in fact, I'm not a tenant farmer, but a plane pioneer..."
"Actually, I've already guessed some," Li Xian'er interrupted Zhang Longchu's words, sighed and said: "Haven't you heard this joke, in Kalimantan, there are only three ways for children from poor families to get ahead, win lottery tickets, go to college, and go to the heterotopic plane to work hard..."
Hearing this, Zhang Longchu opened his mouth, and didn't know how to answer for a while, so he heard Li Xian'er say again: "But although plane exploration has always been the hottest topic in society, I wasn't too interested in it before, what kind of Mansha plane in India you are going to is dangerous, why don't you let the Osadin plane on the island go, and travel thousands of miles abroad to explore the plane?" ”
"Sister, plane exploration, plane exploration, what is it called exploration if there is no danger," Zhang Longchu replied softly, both true and false: "But I am also a very experienced and powerful plane pioneer now, so nine out of ten are sure that the danger will be turned into a disaster."
As for why you want to go to the Indian plane to explore, sister, didn't you say that your ideal is to develop a set of education models that are most suitable for poor children to work and study, and promote and popularize high school and even university education throughout Malaysia, my ideal is not as great as yours, but it is also very ambitious..."
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Li Xian'er and said, "Long Chu, in the future, you don't want to travel around all the different planes connected to the earth and explore, right?" ”
"Hmm." Zhang Longchu first replied with a heavy word, and then said with a smile: "Sister is worthy of being a college student, she is really smart, and she guessed my mind at once." ”
"You're really amazing," Hearing Zhang Longchu's joking admiration, Li Xian'er said in a strange tone: "The children of poor families who go to the heterotopic plane to work are said to have tens of thousands of them every day, but I'm afraid there are very few people with such ambition as you...
Forget it, if you have anything to say when you come back safely, in short, take care of everything, if you really encounter any danger, don't be strong, you know? ”
"I will, Sister," Zhang Longchu nodded and said, "Then I'll contact you when I come back from India." He hung up the phone, stood for a while holding the phone and didn't know what he was thinking, then silently turned around and walked back to the villa.
In the afternoon, he rushed to Kuching Airport to board the plane, and when the sun set, he was already in the capital of the Indian subcontinent, one of the four ancient countries in the world, along with his mother country Huaxia.
New Delhi has a subtropical monsoon climate, and the weather in May is not much different from that of Kuching.
With the flow of people getting off the plane, Zhang Longchu simply straddled his strange backpack diagonally, walked out of Gandhi International Airport, and immediately smelled a hot wind mixed with a strange smell of spices.
The smell was not unpleasant, but it was not good, it gave people a very subtle feeling, he rubbed his nose, frowned, and strolled down the marble steps that connected the airport to the parking plaza with a little discomfort.
Suddenly, a crowd of people hugged people, people crowded people, and the dense human heads were like ants attracted by honey, and the scene of surging in the airport square like a tide broke into Zhang Longchu's eyes, making his eyes widen and he was stupid. (To be continued.) )
