Chapter 41: Misfortune

Xiao Xiao and Lakshin strolled through the streets of New Alexandria. There are two types of streets: one is the ordinary citizen street. The other is antique streets. Not only ordinary streets, but also in every city. The antique streets were redesigned and built based on the documents that have survived from the old era. This is the tradition of the republic, and most of the ancient cultural cities have been in ruins after the baptism of the "end war", and restoring their former glory and glory is the most haode tribute to human civilization.

New Alexandria is different from Venice, although it is an ancient city famous for its port, but in terms of cultural heritage, Alexandria contains the excellent culture of Asia, Africa and Europe, and its majestic momentum is incomparable to Venice. If the two cities were to be compared to a delicacy, Venice would be a delicate French dessert after dinner, while New Alexandria would be a feast for a VIP dinner.

Of course, for Xiao Xiao, there is no essential difference between the two cities. She has never left her hometown to travel around Shijie, so she has a curiosity about everything she has not been exposed to. Whether it is Venice or New Alexandria, these place names appear for the first time in Xiao Xiao's life, and they are just good memories of this girl's journey. As for culture, science and the like, she doesn't care.

However, although Xiao Xiao's heart was full of curiosity, she also knew that the purpose of going out this time was not only to open her eyes, but also to find that Brother Mo. In her heart, although Mo Zhitian had only spent a few days with her, the natural and affectionate feeling made her think that this stranger from the Republic was already an indispensable part of her life.

In the days when Mo was gone, he would always think of him in his dreams, and Xiao Xiao had never had such a strange feeling. This kind of longing is suffocating and intoxicating. Every time this longing intensified, she would feel an inexplicable blushing and heartbeat. The longing for Mo Zhitian drove him to be freed from his original cage.

In the past, I also fantasized about being able to get out of the misty mountains and go to the place where the sunset sank, but I didn't have the courage to do so. Her father is old, and she knows that although the owner of the village looks radiant and dominates the villagers of the original village, Xiao Xiao knows in her heart what her father is like when no one is around. All his life, he fought for his people. At first, he fought for the fact that his people could not get the food and clothing they deserved, and then after being betrayed by the Republic, he fought for the freedom of his people. His life was not happy, maybe for a short time, he was happy. That was when he was with Xiao Xiao's mother-in-law Bi Ru, and when this relationship disappeared with Bi Ru's life, the heart of the owner of the village was closed forever.

Xiao Xiao is not qualified to evaluate her father. He is great, and he braved the rain of bullets to bring himself into the world. He was reluctant for Xiao Xiao to leave the original village for the happiness of his daughter. Xiao Xiao kept these things in mind. She now wonders every night if she's worthy of her father by doing this. Later, she gradually stopped thinking about this, not because Xiao Xiao was not filial and ruthless, but because she knew that she had grown up. What my father gave me was what he thought was happiness, but his own happiness was not what my father expected. If you want to really grow up, you have to go through this. When one day she can get her own true happiness, her father will definitely be happy for her.

The innocent Xiao Xiao is thinking about these things all the time. As for her, Lakshin is in the eyes. Even if this bold man with the blood of the Golden Family (referring to the blood of Genghis Khan, in this case referring to the Mongolian bloodline) was not good at words, he could see the little sister's thoughts. Laxin is not stupid, he just doesn't want to talk, and he always holds a lot of things in his heart. He understands what kind of person he is and knows what he should do, although he is a little unwilling, but he is willing to bear this unwillingness, and he sincerely hopes that Xiao Xiao can get the happiness she wants. In order to realize her dream, Lakshin is willing to do anything, and now what he can really do is to protect Xiao Xiao's safety. Therefore, from the moment he left the original village, Lakshen was energetic along the way, and he always tensed his nerves to prevent accidents.

These two men came to the city with their own ideas. They were a little tired from the day's journey. Rakshen thanked the locals for their warm invitation, and took Xiao Xiao off the road to find a remote place to stay. In his opinion, the hotels near the main road are too unsafe. Neither he nor Xiao Xiao are from the Republic, although they got fake identity documents with the help of Xiaoyu, but if someone really finds fault, their identities are easily exposed. Only finding a place to stay in the middle of nowhere will not be too noticeable.

Rakshen pulled Xiao Xiao to turn left and right, and finally found a hotel that suited his heart very well - the Ptolemaic Hotel. The outside of the hotel is very clean and there are few pedestrians around, so it is a secluded place. It's just that there is an old man in tattered clothes squatting at the door of this hotel, which makes him very uncomfortable. He couldn't get used to seeing people in rags and living a depressed life. If you are in the original village, as long as someone is in difficulty, other neighbors and friends will help, so no one there goes out to beg for food because they can't get by. This republic that claims to be happy for everyone, but there are beggars, it can be seen that the owner of the village is right, this country is extremely hypocritical and unsympathetic!

Thinking of this, Lakshin walked up to the old man and asked, "What is the problem with the old man?" Weishenme is going to beg here? ”

The old man did not look at the young man in front of him, but lowered his head and muttered with half-closed eyes: "My daughter is gone, my daughter is gone!" ”

Seeing that the old man was in trouble, Rakshen continued to ask, "Where is your daughter?" ”

Only then did the old man raise his head and say with a smile: "My daughter has become a god!" She's a god! Hee-hee, "The old beggar suddenly jumped up and ran away, and disappeared into the street after a while.

Rakshen didn't expect him to do this, and he didn't come to his senses until the old man had already run away. He wanted to chase after this old beggar, who seemed to be foolish, but after thinking about it, he forgot it. Don't be too ostentatious, if you get into trouble, I'm afraid it will hurt Xiao Xiao.

Xiao Xiao naturally saw the old beggar's behavior, she just felt that the old man was a little pitiful. For this uninformed girl, the beggar only exists in the story. Although she knew that Shijie was not perfect, she still couldn't accept it when she saw this living example.

Lakshen glanced at Xiao Xiao and knew that this sister was being compassionate again, so he pulled her and whispered: "We can't help him, don't stay at the door for too long, don't attract attention." ”

Xiao Xiao nodded and followed Lakshen into the hotel. There was a middle-aged woman sitting at the front desk, she looked up at Lakshen and Xiao Xiao and asked, "Are you two staying in the hotel?" Instead of speaking, Laxin simply nodded.

The middle-aged woman smiled and said, "You two are outsiders, right?" It's the peak season for us here, and there are a lot of tourists from other places, so if you're lucky, there's only one room left today, and the rest are booked. ”

Laxin was not surprised, and said lightly: "Then I want that one." We pay cash. ”

"Haode, this is the key, room 1102, I wish you all a pleasant trip!" The middle-aged woman took the money and handed the key to Lakshin.

Xiao Xiao didn't say anything and walked inside, and Lakshen followed her closely. The two of them went straight to the elevator number one on the side of the hall. When the elevator door closes, the door of the second elevator on the opposite side also opens. Mo Bantian, who had a serious face, hurriedly left the hotel.
