Chapter Forty-Eight: The Blind Man Lights the Lamp
Navigating the universe is extremely dangerous, and navigators must not only resist the powerful forces of the universe itself, but also watch out for other ships sailing in space. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 There are constant disputes between info forces and forces, countries and countries, and alliances and alliances, and maybe they will be blown up for inexplicable reasons.
This means that countless men have thrown their lives into that sea of stars, and the ratio of men to women is seriously imbalanced no matter what country they are in, and there are too few men. According to the relationship between supply and demand, if there are fewer men, their status will naturally rise, so most of the housework is done by women, especially cooking, aside from those chefs who make money by their skills, men who can cook for women are really a rare breed in this era.
Jessica also picked up the cup and took a sip gently, "Actually, I don't quite understand what you mean, it's really easy to cooperate with me, but there are a lot of problems, no matter how you look at it, I feel that you are a person who is afraid of trouble, don't let me tell me, how can you take the initiative to find trouble." ”
"The reason is simple, because I hate loneliness more than trouble." Li Ang unconsciously used the ancient dragon body, he vaguely remembered that this seemed to be some of Li's lines for fun, some people would look very pretentious when they used it, but some people used it extremely realistically.
Jessica smiled helplessly, men are always like this, every time they are asked a question that they can't answer, they start to pretend to be profound, her father is like this, and Li Ang who is sitting in front of her at this moment is also like this, "You really like to joke, there are more than 10,000 people like Yunmen, there are two big beauties around you, and there are two other outside, so do you also feel lonely?" ”
"It depends on how you define the word 'lonely', I just want to ask you, who are surrounded by thousands of people, are you lonely?" Leon stared straight into Jessica's eyes, as if he wanted to shoot his gaze into the other person's soul, to peek into the deepest secrets of the other party.
Everyone is a lonely and lonely walker, but some people know their own loneliness, and some people don't know that they are lonely, Jessica belongs to the former, so she understands what Leon wants to express in his words, "So, do you think we belong to the same kind of people?" ”
"Yes, I'm pretty sure." Li Ang felt very magical, there was no basis, just a mysterious and mysterious feeling, but it could make people insist on their ideas extremely firmly, whether it was cause and effect or fate, he couldn't guess and wouldn't guess, just follow his heart to approach, that's all.
There was a long silence, and Leon and Jessica stared at each other like this, without saying a word.
Outside the window is a brilliant lamplight, a gorgeous night scene more colorful than day, a man and a woman sit opposite each other, the air is filled with the sweet smell of champagne, and the candle flame gently shakes, scattering the shadows of people. Everything is familiar, and it is true for both of them.
"People can have no ideals and no dreams, but there must be a reason, and it is the reason that supports all our actions." Leon broke the silence, they couldn't have been silent like this forever, "And what about your reason, the reason for standing on that stage." ”
"Me? As long as you stand on that stage and listen to your own song attentively, how can you not stand at the end. Jessica turned her head to look at the neon lights of the city, the light and fire in this world have always represented life, and under the cover of night, where is there no one under the lights, if you look for it, it will be too painful.
Sometimes standing on a high place is like a blind man carrying a lantern, not to see the person, but to let the person see himself. Jessica doesn't know why, but she has always firmly believed that there will be such a person, who has gone through a lot of hardships to break the boundaries of time and space just to find her, and all she wants to do is to stand in a conspicuous place, so that the parting is short, and the reunion is long.
Only V.S is always there by Leon's side, Lei Teng, Ma Jun and Nana are going to enjoy their nightlife, Long Baixing is a bitterly cold frozen planet, even if there are a few prosperous cities, it is impossible to have such a mature and developed cultural life system as Xuandu, it is understandable that they want to seize this time before leaving to enjoy life.
"You two uncles, you just drink and drink all day long, don't you have any other pursuits?" Nana also likes to go to nightclubs to drink, and she also likes to tease ordinary white-collar workers who are stereotyped and depressed during the day and indulgent at night, but she is a woman after all, a woman with a normal orientation, and she can't play the second half.
"Otherwise, will you go to the car? This is the capital of the city, not Andong, and the Grand Arena only has ordinary official events, as well as entertainment for ordinary lovers, neither of which is your cup of tea. Ma Jun rolled his eyes, this woman is beautiful, but she has a very bad habit of flying in a car if she doesn't agree.
The Grand Arena in the Grand Arena is of high standard, and the facilities are far from being comparable to Liang Yue's Light Road Arena, but the standard formula races held in the Grand Arena are only open to ordinary people on weekends, allowing them to experience a limited speed and passion, both activities are indeed not Nana's love, what she likes is the free and debauched hurricane. Reaching out and patting her car, Nana pouted, "I wouldn't have dragged it out if I knew it, and it would take a lot of effort to maintain it once." ”
Lei Teng always treats Nana as a daughter, and sometimes he feels that if he really has a daughter like Nana, he will definitely have a headache, and now seeing Nana's unhappy appearance, he patted her on the shoulder dotingly, "I know a good place, there are unofficial competitions over there, but you have to invest a little money." ”
"Really?" Nana's eyes lit up, of course she understood the meaning of "unofficial", it was an underground competition for gambling money, this kind of competition was very exciting, correspondingly, and dangerous. Bookmakers sometimes make money in order to manipulate the outcome of the game, and any kind of bad behavior can be resorted to. But Nana is not worried, the ground snake will never be able to fight the strong dragon, its own strength is not weak, there are two ruthless people by her side, Lei Teng and Ma Jun, plus Li Ang covers her, no matter who provokes her, she will kick the steel plate, "But Uncle Lei, how do you know that there is an underground competition here?" ”
"Brother Lei used to be a person from the capital, you don't even know this?" Ma Jun glanced at Lei Teng's face, he was actually similar to Lei Teng, he couldn't stay in the original place before leaving, and Lei Teng was a person from the capital before he did things with Li Ang. Lei Teng's personality is very good, and he always likes to make jokes about his uncle, and his mouth is still a little broken, but Ma Jun is from himself to others, and those who have to leave their hometown have a past that they don't want to recall.
Lei Teng drove Ma Jun in the car, unusually silent, staring at the road ahead with a cigarette in his mouth, but his thoughts seemed to drift far away. There are many things that people always think they have let go, but it is really so easy to let go, and not thinking about it does not mean that they can't remember.
Nana drove her own car behind Lei Teng, and soon came to a remote hill, and the parking lot in front of the mountain was already crowded with cars and people, and it looked like a big party from a distance, obviously such an event had protection from above, otherwise such a large scale and such a lively scene would have been seized a long time ago.
"It's a very old mine, and the main access road is dug by a large TBM, which is large enough for four cars to run in parallel, and it is relatively safe to pass through the main road if you want to be stable, and then there are all kinds of small passages in the mountain, and one car can pass through the narrowest point. The race is usually a four-car hill climb, enter from the entrance in front of us, the first one to come out of the top of the mountain is the win, no one knows what the shortest distance is, only a few more popular routes, you go buy a map later, and then run it twice. "Nana's skills are here, Lei Teng is still more assured, just run two laps and it's no problem, they just came to have some fun this time, and they don't have to sweep the field.
"Mining mines, you can still mine to the top of the mountain, this is really not a children's paradise?" It's not that Nana hasn't seen what a real mine looks like, and this one in front of her looks more like a roller coaster rockery in an amusement park, "Or has the Guangchen Republic developed a special mining technology?" ”
"There are things that are good to know, but not to say." Lei Teng can only spread his hands, who can tell the things in the system. This titular mine, which was stopped and abandoned after only half a year of mining, was transferred to the name of an entertainment company, and was indeed intended to be built into a large roller coaster, but it has never started. Everyone knows the truth, it was a certain bigwig who took a fancy to the benefits of the underground car race and deliberately made such a venue.
As an informal race, there is actually only one race per night, and each faction will put out their own competitors to compete here, usually three drivers pushed by them, and the remaining one is selected from the outsiders who come to "play". The drivers who come on behalf of one side are the money-making machines of their respective bosses, and it is impossible to have a chance to play without two brushes, and the slightest performance in their line of work will almost be disposed of. Before the final match begins, the fans who come to play and the second and third players from all parties will also play a contest and play with a little money to stir up the atmosphere.
This kind of game is all bets can be bet on, and it seems that there are not too many people involved, but because there is no interference from the regulators, they often play very big, and the bookmakers can make a lot of money every night. Ma Jun roughly counted that there were at least thousands of people gathered in this parking lot at the foot of the mountain, and the combined value of various luxury cars was also staggering, "Although it looks like that, these guys can't play yin." ”
