Chapter 686: It's Too Cold What Foreign Tourists See
In just two days, tens of thousands of tourists poured into Xingchenling, Grandpa Fu, Mei'er, and the owners of major restaurants were smiling. Heavy snow in the north closed the road, the journey was not easy, and now the arrival should be all imperial tourists, and there are more foreign tourists behind, which is expected to reach more than 30,000 people.
After the Ice and Snow Festival, there is also a winter fishing, which means that such a popularity will last for a month or more.
Those tourists who have rushed to the Star Leader Empire, many of them are already familiar with the road, where to eat, what to eat, and where to play, they are quite clear.
"It's comfortable!" After taking a hot shower and sleeping on a warm ondol, people sighed when they woke up and the fatigue of the journey was swept away.
"This year, we have made a lot of trouble in this flood, but we are so embarrassed! Obviously, we don't have any water there, but we are not allowed to come out to play!"
"But no, it's the same in my family, the old man stuck all the money to death, and he didn't come to escape the heat this summer!"
"Don't talk about that, you must have a good time when you come out this time, first go to Cuiyuan Building to eat roast lamb shank, and walk ......"
A large part of the population went straight to the food street and the major restaurants, while the other part went to the amusement park to try skiing and extreme ice sledding......
By the beginning of December, as expected, more foreign tourists arrived.
As supporters of Xingchen Ling tourism, He Yong and Li Feng of the Great Qin Kingdom decided to participate in the Ice and Snow Festival immediately after seeing the Xingchen Monthly. Wolves pull sleds, fire kangs. Skiing, these are unheard of and full of curiosity. There is also an ice lantern that is said to be miraculous in the monthly magazine.
And that's not all. The two also dragged four friends who usually have a very good relationship with them.
A few friends knew that they had been here in the summer, and they had heard them say how good the star collar was, and they all felt that it was a pity that they didn't go. This time, an exaggerated advertisement was published in the Xingchen Monthly, and as soon as He Yong and the two flickered, these people all followed them.
When they first entered the north, several people were very excited, and the heavens and the earth were covered in silver. When they saw snow for the first time, they thought it was beautiful. A few of the old men even had a bit of a fight in the snow.
But when the excitement passed, they regretted it, it was so cold that those of them who were used to living in warm places were really not used to it. It is enough for Daqin to wear a leather coat now, but it feels cold with two cotton clothes here.
When they came to the east of the three collars, their whole bodies were wrapped in zongzi, and they all felt too cold.
"He Yong. This time you've been fooled. It's such a cold day, and you're still playing with!" one of them said, looking around. Surrounded by tourists waiting for the sleigh, all from the Four Kingdoms, they were dressed exactly like them, and they were all wrapped in themselves so that only their eyes were exposed.
He was not the only one who had this idea, and after hearing him speak, a few unknown people around him nodded in agreement: "It's really cold here." We're still wearing a single coat over there!"
Although He Yong and Li Feng were also cold, they were the ones who called them. Seeing that you are at your destination, how can you give up halfway.
"Haven't you read the Xingchen Monthly, they all said that it is cold and snowy outside, and sleeping on the kang in the house is the real enjoyment, what are you afraid of now, it will definitely be comfortable when you get to the Xingchen Collar!" He Yong said.
"This was the case when we came this summer, when the sun was shining, and we all wanted to go back......" Li Feng also talked about the summer heat, when they almost went home!
"The question is how to play in such cold, you can't dress like this, I have a hard time lifting my arms now!" said the other helplessly.
At this time, the person in charge of the sled ticket sales spoke: "It's not as cold as you think." You feel cold because you are tired from the journey...... When you get to the star collar, eat something and drink some hot water, you can recover immediately...... As long as you are full of food and drink, you will never feel cold when you go to the amusement park!"
"Hear me, why do you feel cold, we're still hungry!" He Yong reached out and patted the shoulder of the man who spoke. The other people nodded when they heard this, they did have food on them, but it was cold and hard, and it was really hard to swallow.
Before He Yong's hand could be withdrawn, a grunting sound sounded, Li Feng almost didn't laugh out loud, and the big group of tourists waiting for the wolf sled didn't eat.
At that moment, a whining roar sounded, and a huge wolf sled came running from a distance and stopped beside the group.
"Oh~" The scene exclaimed, and all eyes widened. The first time they saw a wolf sled, more than thirty sturdy wild wolves barked low, and the oppressive force was still very strong.
Immediately after, the leading wind wolf roared, and the wolves immediately lost their voice. People's eyes are also drawn to it.
"This is the Wind Wolf, it's so beautiful!" said one of them with envy. Needless to say, the god of the wind wolf is not to men, and there is probably no one who doesn't like it when a man sees it.
"If only I had one of those pets!"
"Don't dream, this is a demon beast, no one in the world can raise it except Jiang Xingchen......"
After the exclamation, the people began to whisper, commenting on the Wind Wolf.
"Alright, the tourists who just got their tickets should board the sleigh!" the sleigh driver greeted everyone.
When the people heard this, they stopped talking, and all 50 people who got the tickets boarded the sleigh. At this time, they were excited again, ready to feel the feeling of speeding through the snow.
On the road to the Star Leader, wolves pull sleds and run fast. Inside the sleigh, everyone stood up straight, huddled on the edge of the sleigh, clutching to the guardrails, shouting with excitement.
"Wow~ It's so fast, definitely much faster than the carriage, this feels awesome!"
"It's fast, it's smooth, and you don't feel any bumps......
"If you look at the distance, the farther away the better, it's really like running on a snowy field, it feels very enjoyable!"
"Don't you feel cold now? It's still winding......
"It's strange, I really don't feel cold, is it because of the excitement of ......."
"Attention, please sit back in your seat, we're coming!" reminded the man in charge of driving the sled in front.
"It's been here so soon, it's not even a month......!
A group of people muttered discontentedly, and the speed of the sleigh gradually slowed down, and finally slowly stopped.
Walking down the sleigh, He Yong and Li Feng took the lead and strode towards the new town.
"It's so clean here!" Entering the new town, people looked around curiously, and saw that the streets were clean and tidy, and there were tall trees planted on both sides. Now the leaves have fallen and the branches are still covered with residual snow, which is very beautiful. The blue brick courtyard wall behind it is neatly aligned, and even the style of the façade is the same, which makes people feel comfortable when they look at it.
"Of course it's clean, people Xingchen has a special cleaner to clean the street every day...... Do you see those cylinders on the side of the road, the garbage in the hands of tourists must be thrown there, and spitting is not allowed, let alone defecating in the open......" He Yong began to explain the rules of the star collar to a few buddies.
In fact, not only them, but also those who come to Xingchen for the first time will be surprised by the cleanliness and hygiene here. Elsewhere, even the capitals of the countries are not so tidy.
While talking, while walking, it didn't take long to arrive at a hotel, where He Yong and the others had stayed.
A few people asked for a small courtyard, and after registering, they entered the house, and a wave of heating hit their faces, and several people all hummed comfortably.
"That's right, it's cold and snowy outside, and it's warm like spring inside the house!" Li Feng said, took off his coat, and jumped directly onto the fire. It's also their first time with this thing.
Soon, several people recovered from the zongzi to their original shape, and all of them sat cross-legged on the earthen kang, feeling warm under their buttocks. It was a great pleasure to enter such a warm environment from the harsh winter of ice and snow.
"See, the windows are all pasted with paper here!" Li Feng pointed to the window, and then pointed to the door: "The small door there is a toilet, there is a hot shower in it, and soap, if you relieve your hands, you can enjoy the feeling of wiping your butt with paper." Haha......"
In the end, Li Feng couldn't help laughing, he came to escape the heat this summer, but he took a lot of butt wiping paper.
When the two of them came over and heard the words, they all came to the window, reached out and touched the window paper outside the window lattice, and muttered, "It's really paper, it's too extravagant!"
Then, several people jumped off the kang and ran to the toilet to take a look, and sure enough, they were all the same as Li Feng said.
"Don't take a bath yet, fill your stomach, you're hungry enough to choke on this way!" Li Feng called a few people back, and then beckoned the guys to serve some hot wine and food.
Soon after, a square table was set up on the ondol, filled with dishes and two jugs of spirits.
Several people raised their glasses to invite each other, and a glass of strong wine was in their stomachs, and a layer of fine beads of sweat suddenly appeared on their foreheads, and the cold in their bodies was dispelled.
"How about it, don't regret it now!" He Yong took a bite of food and asked a few people.
"I don't regret it!" Several people immediately shook their heads and laughed, and said: "In such weather, sitting on the kang and drinking wine is so beautiful! ”
He Yong smiled: "Wait for a while, eat and drink enough, take a bath and sleep comfortably, it will be more beautiful!"
Li Feng also smiled: "Tomorrow we will go to Kaihuang for a big dinner, and then go straight to the amusement park...... Come on, it!"
A group of people raised their glasses at the same time, and the atmosphere was extremely hot......
At the same time, the foreign tourists who came to Xingchenling almost all sat on the kang to eat and drink wine as He Yong and their choice. The slight remorse that arose in the cold and freezing when I came has long since disappeared at this moment.
In the next two days, more and more tourists arrived, and none of those who stayed in the hotel were not satisfied. Some people have figured out how to show off to those who didn't show up when they go back.
Fast forward to December 5th, and the number of visitors to Xingchen Collar has reached 35,000. The Snow Festival will also start tonight! (To be continued......)
