Chapter 80—Myths and Legends
"You stink."
Meng Xing'er glanced at the junior with her eyes.
"Huh? ~Am I not handsome? Personally, I think I'm pretty handsome. ”
Gu Zelin touched his cheek, when he got up in the morning and looked in the mirror before, he saw that he might not be very handsome, but he was not ugly.
"Okay, where are we going in a moment?"
Meng Xing'er watched her junior pick up her mobile phone and take a camera to look at herself, and she wanted to laugh.
"Let's go to the top of the mountain and have a look."
Gu Zelin looked up at the sky, and he could already faintly see some starlight here.
"Okay!"
Mengxing'er walked in front, Gu Zelin looked at her in front with a smile on her face, which one to buy in front.
"Nah!! Brother, I'll invite you to drink! ”
Meng Xing'er handed two cups of drinks with straws to Gu Zelin.
Gu Zelin looked at the two drink cups, there was a little bit of lipstick on the straws, but the drinks in them did not drop significantly, good guy, they all drank a little.
"Senior sister, why is the milk tea plugged in with a straw?"
Meng Xing'er coughed lightly, looked at the junior brother with a serious face, and said, "Senior brother, I'm here to taste it for you, and ah, what if someone poisons you?" ”
Gu Zelin looked at Meng Xing'er's serious nonsense, took the cup of milk tea in his right hand, and then bit into the position of the senior sister who had a little lipstick.
"Let's go."
Gu Zelin took his senior sister to the mountain with his other hand, and was stopped by a foreigner when he walked halfway up the mountain to the stairs.
"Hello, can I ask you to do us a favor?"
Meng Xing'er and Gu Zelin heard the voice and then glanced at each other, and turned around at the same time.
I saw two foreigners with very white skin greeting them warmly.
Mengxing'er quietly hid behind Gu Zelin, and then leaked out a pair of eyes that looked at the other side with some curiosity.
They may also feel that they have scared the little girl, so they come up apologetically and say, "I'm sorry, I... It's not without the slightest intention to offend you. ”
That white-skinned Chinese was a little lame, but it was still barely understood.
"It's okay, my senior sister is a little timid, hello, my name is Gu Zelin."
Gu Zelin stretched out his hand to the white-skinned man.
"Hello, my name is Davis, this is my good friend who came with me, his name is Garcia!"
Davis stretched out his hand and shook it with Gu Zelin's outstretched hand, and then introduced it to the people around him.
"Are you here for a tourist? How do you feel about Jishan? ”
Gu Zelin asked with a smile.
Garcia took a step forward and said, "It's very good, the people here are very welcoming, the mountains are good, and I took a water boat ride before coming up, which was very interesting." ”
The more Garcia spoke, the more energetic she became, and she picked up the camera hanging around her neck to show Gu Zelin.
Meng Xing'er was also a little curious, and leaned out to look at the camera.
Inside there are pictures of various scenes, and it is beautiful.
"I've been listening to people in my own country say that China is not good here and there, we have been in China for about three months, far from the scene that our country people say, on the contrary, it is so good here, we all don't want to go back, and the payment here is also very convenient."
"Jishan is so beautiful here, if we could, Garcia and I would like to live here forever."
After speaking, he laughed and looked at Gu Zelin, and then continued to praise China.
..................
Davis said this and that to Gu Zelin, and Gu Zelin smiled and listened very seriously from beginning to end.
In fact, sometimes it is useless to say that you are good, and only when you get the approval of others is the best.
Knowing that Davis stopped and was not speaking, Gu Zelin spoke.
"First of all, thank you for being able to love my motherland so much, and secondly, you don't have to spend too much time in one place, China is very big, you can go around and see the loveliness of each region."
Garcia nodded.
"We will, thank you."
"You're welcome."
Just when Gu Zelin was about to pull Meng Xing'er away, he was stopped.
"By the way, Mr. Gu, can you please take a video with us?"
Garcia stopped Gu Zelin and asked.
"What video? Is it going to be sent to your family? ”
"No, it's an outdoor live broadcast."
Garcia instantly became excited, and then picked up her selfie stick and held it high in motion.
"China is a country that has refreshed my understanding a lot, and Outdoor live broadcasting can be said to be basically nothing in our country."
Well...... Gu Zelin thought that this kind of combination of Chinese and Western way of speaking, only some people in their own country would use it, it turned out that these foreign netizens also followed the local customs, this has been learned, if the time is a little longer, some Internet words have been learned.
Just as Gu Zelin was thinking, Garcia asked again.
"Mr. Gu, is it okay?"
Gu Zelin came back to his senses and nodded: "Of course you can." ”
Garcia's face was happy, and then after clicking on the phone for a few minutes, she put the phone on the selfie stick, adjusted the length and angle, and grabbed Gu Zelin's shoulder with one hand.
“Hello everyone,I am your tour guide,Garcia。 This handsome guy friend next to me is a new friend I just met, and he's a local. His name is Gu Zelin, and his girlfriend is next to him called ......"
Garcia was momentarily embarrassed, because he didn't know what the little girl's name was.
Gu Zelin feels quite fresh, it's not that he hasn't seen it before, but it's all with a flat face, this Garcia is more interesting than those, and he was inexplicably pulled into the live broadcast room by the outdoor anchor.
Garcia moved the camera slightly, so that she could see Gu Zelin more clearly.
Gu Zelin said to the screen: "Hello everyone, my name is Gu Zelin, and this one next to me is my senior sister and also my girlfriend." ”
Meng Xing'er was a little squirming at first, but she still mustered up the courage to walk out of Gu Zelin and waved a little at the camera.
Gu Zelin looked at the mobile phone screen, and the comments below appeared in English, and occasionally some Chinese barrages would float by.
"If you want to get to know a city, it's not enough to just look at the introduction and walk around on your own, and you have some special feelings about this place. Can we ask our friend Mr. Gu to tell us about Jizhou? ”
Gu Zelin thought about it, and didn't feel anything bad about promoting his hometown, so he nodded and agreed.
Gu Zelin watched the gifts on the mobile phone screen fly by, and Gu Zelin couldn't help but be surprised in his heart.
These foreigners are really rich, these gifts are not some small gifts, converted into RMB are all 100 yuan to 500 yuan, this scene has lasted for five minutes.
Looking at this money, I can't help but sigh that it is really profitable to do live broadcasts.
Although Gu Zelin was a little surprised in his heart, the expression on his face was still a relaxed smile, and he began to introduce the history of Jizhou to people from other countries.
"Let me tell you the story of the drunken golden turtle."
"Legend has it that in ancient times, the Qianqing depression in the northeast of Jizhou City was the hometown of Ao Guang, the dragon king of the East China Sea, and later became a low-lying land due to the siltation of the Yellow River."
Ao Guang also moved, but the Dragon Palace where he lived is still buried in this underground. At that time, there were two brothers farming here, the eldest learned from his parents how to do good crops, and the daughter-in-law was smart and capable; ”
"The second child is lazy and lazy, and the daughter-in-law is ruthless and greedy."
"The eldest brother grows well with hard work, and the little days are getting more and more popular;"
"The second child is greedy for comfort, nothing grows in the field, and the days are getting worse and worse, and when he can't get along, he steals crops to make a living. One summer, the boss planted two acres of watermelons, and when hoeing the ground, he dug out the golden key to open the gate of the Dragon Palace, and returned the little dragon king who guarded the Dragon Palace. ”
In order to repay the boss, the little dragon king invited the boss and the second to the dragon palace to get treasures. When the agreed time came, the eldest and second followed the little dragon king to the lowest part of Donghaizi. ”
The little dragon king pointed down three times with his fingers, and the earth cracked a crack more than two feet wide. When the three of them approached the Dragon Palace after drilling into the crack in the ground, the little dragon king divided his hands again, and the golden gate of the Dragon Palace immediately opened. I saw that the inside was full of mountains of gold and jade. ”
The eldest only took a few pieces of broken gold and silver, but the second put a lot of them in his pocket and put them in his bag. The little dragon king and the eldest walked out of the golden gate, but the second child died of excessive weight and vomiting blood from his mouth. ”
The elder brother cried bitterly and went up to the ground with the little dragon king, and the cracks in the earth immediately snapped and closed again. In the future, the old family relied on labor and the help of the little dragon king, and life got better and better. ”
...........
This story is that Gu Zelin accidentally read a mythical story about Jizhou, fortunately, his memory is strong, and there may be some places that are not sufficient, but he still finished it without danger.
Looking at the various expressions and comments on the mobile phone screen, it seems that international friends of philosophy like Chinese stories very much.
After all, it's a myth and legend, and maybe there may have been this thing before, but now it's a word-of-mouth version.
“So inspirationa!”
Garcia said: "It's so inspirational, this story tells us that sometimes insatiable greed costs us our lives, and we have to do what we can, is that what it means? Mr. Gu. ”
Gu Zelin nodded.
"It's like this, when everyone sees a huge wealth, the first thing they want to take is to take it for themselves, but they never think that they didn't swallow this wealth so much."
