Chapter Ninety-Nine: Other Countries Meet Native Voices

As if sensing that both eyes were staring at him, the old man raised his head helplessly and replied in Slavic: "I don't understand Mandarin, and I don't know what you're talking about......"

Li Jing and the monkey looked at the old man speechlessly, I believe you are a ghost, you are a bad old man, and the bad drops are very ......

The old man also seemed to realize that he had said the wrong thing, and he held it for a long time, so he had to reply in broken Chinese: "Can you understand a little bit...... But it's not good to say, it's too hard......"

Finally someone could communicate, Li Jing and the monkey breathed a sigh of relief, thought about it, Li Jing curiously asked the old man in Chinese: "Who did you learn your Chinese with?" ”

"Uh...... A few years ago, I knew a friend in China, he was a diplomat, but with the outbreak of war in China, he went to work elsewhere, and I don't know if there will be a chance to see him again......"

Well, this question is quite boring, if you chat like this in China, it is possible to climb a relative or something, and at this time, this place ......

Li Jing had no choice but to ask what he urgently needed to know: "Who is the leader of your group?" ”

"Boss, what's it?" The old man looked at Li Jing with innocent eyes.

Li Jing almost choked to death by his own saliva: "Cough! 

 Cough! Cough! 

 That's what the leader means! ”

The old man with a strange accent mocked Li Jing: "Chief? Haha, what do you think...... Will we have a leader? ”

The monkey was a little impatient next to him: "It's the leader of your beggar gang......"

"Helper? What is it? ”

"I'll ...... It's just that the words count, who has the final say here? ”

"No one has the final say here, it's just shelter from the wind and rain in this place, a group of people who have lost hope, can survive one day is a day, and no one knows if they can survive until tomorrow!"

What else can a group of people who accept their fate say!

Maybe they have struggled, worked hard, and were unwilling, but when they were trampled into the mud pit by fate again and again, some people gave up and accepted their fate.

The numb life of broken jars and broken pieces, since then the sky is full of dark clouds, and the sun behind the dark clouds can never be seen again.

"Fate" is a big proposition, Li Jing and the monkey don't have time to lament the fate of some people, because they are still fighting against fate.

Li Jing and the monkey exited the house and discussed the "fate" of these people. Undoubtedly, these people were lucky, and after discussion, the monkey entered the house in a few steps.

The monkey said to the cunning old man in Mandarin: "This city has just been occupied by us, we just came to search it, and there will definitely be some changes in the city in the next period of time." ”

"Therefore, our request to you is that you do not go out of this house and forget what you see until dawn tomorrow. Otherwise, there may be something that people don't want to see! This thing, as a help, I hope you will heed the advice......"

A coin appeared in the monkey's hand, a silver dinar, and slowly placed it on the ground in front of the door.

Closing the door, the monkey shouted in Slavic voice: "You won't die of hunger for a day, but you may die when you come out, think about it!" ”

After speaking, the monkey turned around and nodded at Li Jing, and the two quickly got on the tank and drove the tank into a factory they had been optimistic about.

What the two didn't notice was that behind a hole in the wall, I don't know when an extra pair of eyes appeared, watching the tank drive into the factory until Li Jing and the monkey left empty-handed!

On the streets of the city, most of the shops are not open, and only a few are open, but there are long queues in front of the doors, and everyone is trembling in a long line to buy food or daily necessities.

Fortunately, the German soldiers did not embarrass them, and in some places there were gendarmes to help maintain order, and ordinary citizens of Sarajevo found that the order of the city had become better.

It was almost noon, Li Jing and the monkey walked around the street for a while, and now the most important thing is to have a good meal and then a good night's sleep!

Walking legs sore, after asking several people, finally found a small restaurant with an open door, opened the curtain and walked in, and found that the restaurant was not big, only less than ten tables, at this time, there were not many people eating in it, most of the tables were empty, and the two tables with people were middle-aged people who looked like ordinary citizens, chatting quietly with their heads down.

Li Jing and the monkey found a table in the corner, took off their hats and put them on the table, and then shouted loudly: "Waiter......"

Behind the counter, the curtain of the back kitchen was opened, and a person hurriedly walked out of it, smiling but tired, with a trace of sorrow in his slightly sunken eyes.

The person who came out was about fifty or sixty years old, not tall, with a thin face but a relatively strong body, wearing an apron, a slightly curved back, but the hair was combed very seriously, without a trace of messiness, and more importantly, the silver white hair was still clearly visible in the black hair.

It seems that one person wears many hats, a chef and a waiter, and maybe a part-time boss cashier or something.

As the people who came out came to the table, Li Jing and the monkey were dumbfounded, and the people who came had yellow skin, black hair, and black eyes, and they were like an old cook in the countryside in China!

"Sir? Sir! What do you need? The restaurant owner looked at the stunned two, and was a little confused for a while, so he could only tremble and try to wake up the two.

"I'll go ......," the monkey finally regained his composure and shouted in Mandarin.

This shout woke up Li Jing, who was still in shock, and also stunned the owner of the restaurant.

"Sir...... Where are you going? Wrong...... You...... You...... You...... How can you speak Mandarin? ”

"Oops...... I'll go ...... "This is what Li Jing shouted."

The restaurant owner was even more confused: "This sir...... Where are you going? ”

This image, this temperament, and this tone of speech, I haven't run away, I am definitely a Chinese!

"Steady! Steady! "......The monkey sits on a stool, gesturing with his hands on his chest and making pranayama movements.

Li Jing had already reacted, looking at the restaurant owner with straight eyes, but his heart was still "plopping!" Thump! "The dance keeps going.

"Poof!" The restaurant owner was happy when he looked at the monkey, and then he felt that something was wrong, so he hurriedly restrained the smile on his face, and explained: "Sir, you are quite like ...... learning."

Seeing that the old man was scared, Li Jing felt that it was best to confirm it, so he asked in Chinese: "Uncle, are you from China?" ”

Hearing Li Jing's question, the restaurant owner looked at Li Jing, a typical image of a Western devil, how could he speak authentic Chinese? I can't help but be a little curious.

(Many people don't know the origin of the word "devil", in fact, there is a saying that it is the transliteration of "turtle", and the real pronunciation is "qiƫ cí", which refers to the Western race in general)

"Well, it's really Chinese, it's been many years, how can you speak Chinese? Listen to the accent and we are a little bit like that! ”

The monkey spoke up on the side: "The two of us are Chinese!" ”
