(Thank you for the reward of "The Little Boy Who Sells the Bustard", the third more 3600-word chapter, today I completed the 10,000-word update, and I still owe more 28 chapters, ask for all kinds of votes)

Li Jiting did not go to the Kremlin and Red Square with Cheng Mo and Xie Minyun, but casually found a reason that he was too tired to play last night and had to rest during the day, and sent Cheng Mo and Xie Minyun to experience the immortality of this great city alone.

Xie Minyun and Cheng Mo have long been accustomed to Li Jiting's irresponsibility, so they rejected Li Jiting's arrangement to call a taxi and set off for the Kremlin and Red Square.

The two of them walked out of the hotel, summer is the most beautiful season in Moscow, the sky is as clear as vodka in a bottle, handsome Russian boys and beautiful East Slavic girls can be seen everywhere, gorgeous palace-like buildings can be seen when you look up, and the streets full of green are inlaid with fairy tale buildings - Orthodox churches.

It's just that the beauty of Moscow, no matter how you look at it, carries a little wordless sadness.

Just like the great Russian classical music, whether it is Tchaikovsky or Rachmaninov, their melodies are free and broad, with a unique vastness and vastness, and in this vast expanse there is a strong bloom of romantic beauty, like an elk galloping through the endless snowfield, like a flash bursting in the dark night.....

Vivid and pale, eternal and ephemeral.

Russia is a little different from what any foreigner imagines, and this fierce country is actually quite delicate and soft.

Cheng Mo and Xie Minyun did not take a taxi to their destination, but chose to take the subway.

Moscow's subway is recognized as the scenery, known as the most beautiful subway in the world, and because of the Cold War, the subway is particularly deep, although the elevator is fast, but it still takes a long time, but it is still worth seeing, because there are countless exquisite murals and reliefs.

Because of the intricacy of the route, even many Russians can't figure it out, Cheng Mo and Xie Minyun took Google Maps to ask people after entering the subway station, and they could get several completely different answers, Cheng Mo could clearly see the hesitation in the expressions of these enthusiastic Russians, and a sturdy aunt even took out her mobile phone to ask a subway attendant friend, and then talked a lot.

It's just that Cheng Mo was still confused, but in order not to delay the other party's time, he could only pretend to understand, then bowed, and said sincerely: "Bassiba..." (thank you in Russian) After saying that he was done, he took Xie Minyun to buy a subway ticket.

"Do you understand?" Xie Minyun asked suspiciously, both of them are at the level of being able to communicate, looking up the dictionary and stumbling to read famous books, it is still a bit difficult to overly complex and colloquial dialogue, the aunt just said quickly and urgently, Xie Minyun didn't understand, Cheng Mo's Russian was a little worse than her, she didn't believe that Cheng Mo understood.

"Nope. Cheng Mo replied as a matter of course, the more enthusiastic people are, the more Cheng Mo wants to keep his distance, so Cheng Mo didn't continue to disturb the kind-hearted Russian aunt just now.

"Then do you know how to buy a ticket?" At this moment, Xie Minyun didn't mind and asked shamelessly, for her, the labyrinthine subway station is one of the most terrifying existences, assuming that she is alone and no one leads her, she can be lost in the subway station all day, this is still the kind of small subway station in Star City, which is not complicated, if it is in a subway station with intricate routes like Beijing or Moscow, it is estimated that she can live for a month.

"The Russian metro is a one-ticket system..... So it doesn't matter what ticket you buy!" Cheng Mo said, pointing to the sign hanging on the ticket window in the distance.

Xie Minyun followed Cheng Mo's hand to see the ticket office like a café, which was quite far away from the entrance and the ticket vending machine, in terms of planning, it was really unscientific, and the red TICKET OFFICE on the glass window was almost invisible, so Xie Minyun completely ignored it.

Of course, if she is sensitive to these details, she will not be a road idiot.

Xie Minyun followed Cheng Mo wordlessly, and then queued up to buy a ticket, a red card, because he was afraid of trouble, Cheng Mo also specially bought a pass that could be used 20 times, and then Cheng Mo asked the conductor a little, and began to study the huge cobweb-like subway route map next to him.

It's a pity that the ontology doesn't have as much memory and computing ability as the carrier, Cheng Mo watched it for a long time before he understood how to take the Moscow subway correctly, as for Xie Minyun, she could understand most of the Russian station names marked on it, and those criss-crossing red and green lines made her dizzy.

After Cheng Mo finally knew how to transfer, he turned his head to Xie Minyun and said, "Okay, let's go!" After speaking, he walked towards the entrance of the station.

Xie Minyun hurriedly followed, but his tone was not polite at all, "Hey, don't look like you can read and understand the map, you have a criminal record in my hands, it's better to be respectful to the victim....."

"I don't mind if you make my crimes public!" Cheng Mo slapped his subway ticket on the ticket gate, and then walked in.

The maps that Xie Minyun took in Star City were all blue round plastic sheets, which were input-type, but Cheng Mo bought a ticket just now, but he didn't give her a ticket, so Xie Minyun was a little confused, looking at the interception door that had popped open, and he didn't know whether to enter or not.

Cheng Mo turned around and saw Xie Minyun's embarrassed appearance, he was in a happier mood, and pretended to know nothing and said: "Come in! I bought a couple ticket, and you can enter two people at a time..."

Xie Minyun immediately walked in and glanced at Cheng Mo viciously, "Who wants to buy a couple ticket with you....."

"It's a good deal. Cheng Mo said lightly, the reason why he said it was a couple ticket was purely to disgust Xie Minyun, because her attitude towards him was too bad, but he accidentally saw her body, and actually teased him three or four times, and he didn't speak in the room, and he was really unhappy if he didn't retaliate.

"Please pay attention to your attitude .... How can you make a mistake and not feel guilty at all?" Xie Minyun raised his eyebrows slightly.

"I said I didn't mean it, and besides, I slept in the hall as you told me last night, what else are you going to do?" Cheng Mo felt that Xie Minyun was a little too careful, and said dissatisfiedly.

"Is that the reason why you told the security guard and the front desk that I was my girlfriend, that I was vicious, that I beat people, and that I didn't give you food?" Xie Minyun sneered.

Cheng Mo didn't expect Xie Minyun to know this, his expression froze suddenly, like stealing something and being caught on the scene, he was a little speechless and embarrassed, so he could only bow his head and remain silent.

"Don't speak, do you know you're doing something wrong?" Xie Minyun continued to sneer.

"Isn't there anything I can't help it? You let me sit in the hall all night, I have to at least give the staff a proper reason, right?" Cheng Mo explained weakly, he knew that he was in big trouble now.

"How can you be so smart, how can you not do it? I think you did it on purpose! You also buy a couple ticket? You want me to be your girlfriend so much? There is a kind of confession you confess to me! I promise not to refuse you....." Xie Minyun said sarcastically.

"I'm sorry, senior sister, don't get me wrong! Cheng Mo said helplessly.

"Next time, if you make a mistake, you have to admit it, and if you are beaten, you should first tell me what to do this time, and solve it with me!"

Cheng Mo is not the kind of person who has to deny it when he is caught, so he can only say: "You can do what you say..."

"Well, that's what you said, and you're going to have to do what I tell you all these days. ”

"It's too much forgiveness for me to obey. ”

"Do you think I'll have you too much?"

Fortunately, the subway came at this time, and Cheng Mo hurriedly said: "Let's get on the train first!"

The two of them got on the subway one after the other, Xie Minyun was like a proud queen, Cheng Mo was a little depressed, the subway was relatively empty, Cheng Mo sat on the edge of the bench, Xie Minyun didn't sit, grabbed the handrail and stood next to him, looked at the flashing road map on the subway door and asked, "How can you know how to take the subway?" has the upper hand, she did not continue to mock Cheng Mo.

Cheng Mo gently explained: "The subway in Moscow is different from the Chinese one, they do not use the station and left and right to indicate the direction, but use platform 1 and platform 2 to distinguish the different directions on the left and right. Another point is that the reason why the Moscow metro is complicated is that the same station and different lines will have different station names, and the reason why we asked different people just now will have different answers is because Mayakovsky station is a 4-line transfer, so there are 4 station names, so even the Russians themselves can't figure it out.... Therefore, we Chinese people are even more confused...."

The subway rumbled forward, and Xie Minyun didn't continue to talk about Cheng Mo's mistakes, but chatted with Cheng Mo about other things, but Cheng Mo knew that things wouldn't end so easily.

For the matter of traveling with Xie Minyun, Cheng Mo is painful and happy, happiness is to have a beautiful girl to accompany him, it is naturally a great blessing in life, and the pain is that Xie Minyun's personality really makes Cheng Mo a little grateful and insensitive, of course, he hasn't said "pain" yet, it's just an exaggerated rhetoric, in fact, it's far from being that bad.

In fact, after getting along with Xie Minyun for so many days, Cheng Mo felt that she was a very good girl in general, but the worldview and outlook on life of the two people were completely different, which made Cheng Mo feel that sometimes he could understand her very clearly, and sometimes he was like seeing flowers in the fog, so that he couldn't guess what she was thinking.

He didn't understand why she was helping a stranger chase a gypsy thief, but after catching the little kid, she just asked the stranger for his wallet back, but gave him more money to buy something to eat, obviously the gypsy kid just told some miserable and pitiful lies to deceive her, and she was still going to be fooled, is this the reason why she wants to learn micro-expressions?

HE ALSO DIDN'T UNDERSTAND WHY THEY WERE IN SALZBURG, AND THAT XIE MINYUN WOULD ASK LI TO DRIVE FOR HOURS TO THE TOWN CALLED ANIF, AND THEN TAKE THEM TO AN OBSCURE CHAPEL.

On that day, she deliberately put on a serious black, and even wore a black veil, and went to lay flowers on Karajan's cold tombstone with a solemn expression. In Cheng Mo's view, death does not need to be sacrificed with those deliberately hypocritical rituals, you really have to like it, keep it in your heart, and listen to his music more.

He even thought maliciously that perhaps Xie Minyun liked Karayang because Karajan expressed the feelings of those rich and elegant intellectuals at the end of their lives, elegant and romantic to the point of impeccable. Unlike Muravinsky, which expresses the feelings of the poor and the soldiers at the end of their lives, there is a huge tension in the roughness.

He didn't understand why she could still insist on playing chess with herself under her own destruction, and even after every game, she would reminisce about the process of being abused without distraction, sitting on the sofa like an old monk in a settled place, resuming the game over and over again. In his opinion, Go and Xie Minyun are just an inconsequential game, she can't gain anything valuable from it, there is no need to insist on climbing the peak she can't climb at all, and she doesn't know it at all.

Although she also had a lot of cute moments, when the two of them were eating Italian food in Fei Lengcui, because she was slaughtered, she fought hard to fight for baht, not at all like a red second generation, and helped a bearded artist who no one listened to play "Death and the Maiden" on the streets of Vienna, attracting countless onlookers and then retired, leaving a lot of money in the violin box.

For Cheng Mo, Xie Minyun is like a half-understood mystery.

Unknown means dangerous.

Of course, it's also a temptation.
