After watching the soldiers' changing of the guard, the two of them continued to search for clues around the square. After two or three laps, they still found nothing. Seeing that it was almost noon, and the task card had not been found, they couldn't help but feel anxious.
At this time, the uncle who sold the feed came to harass him again. Xia Xiai refused in broken English, but the other party didn't give up until he succeeded in selling, and he pointed at "3" with his fingers.
Xia Xiai looked at the big sun above her head, thinking that it is not easy for an uncle to make money, she sighed, and had to take out 3 euros from her wallet and hand it over. This money can buy five or six catties of feed in his hometown, but here he can only buy a bag of feed as small as half a palm.
Unexpectedly, the uncle shook his hand and continued to compare "3", repeating: "Thirty!"
Xia Xiai finally understood this time, her eyes widened in disbelief: "Excuse me? Thirty??"
"Yes "
Are you, treat me as... as a stupid!" He was so angry that he took the money back, "Sister Su Zhi, let's ignore him, he treats us as fools, who would spend 30 euros on feed."
Su Zhi nodded in agreement, and when she was about to leave, Xia Xiai suddenly stopped and held her back.
"Wait... It's not quite right, who would spend 30 euros for feed... This uncle should also know that it is too expensive and no one will buy it. Why should
he set such a high price?" Surrounding: "And have you noticed that he seems to have only been pestering us from the beginning? There are so many tourists around, why don't you go and sell to them?"
Su Zhi also responded: "You mean...?"
Xia Xiai nodded . , immediately decided to take a gamble, took out a huge sum of 30 euros, and solemnly handed it to the uncle, his eyes full of trust and expectation.
The uncle smiled knowingly, and then, mysteriously took something out of his pocket, clenched it tightly in his hand, and handed it to him with a solemn face.
Xia Xiai was overjoyed, and slowly opened her palm—
Really... a bag of pigeon feed.
"..."
Su Zhi: "...Brother, you may think too much, he just treats you as a stupid."
Xia Xiai completely accepted her fate, and her head drooped down in frustration: "I'm sorry, Sister Su Zhi..."
"It's okay, since I bought it. Now, let's feed the pigeons."
With a long sigh, he had to squat down, took out a few grains of fodder that was as expensive as gold from the small bag, and sprinkled it at his feet, and immediately a group of pigeons cooed around him. Come up and peck the ground.
This scene is really like when I used to feed chickens and ducks in the countryside.
There are not many entertainment facilities in the beautiful countryside. For the young man, the biggest entertainment is playing in the fields and streams, and doing farm work. When he came home from school, the first thing he did was to leave his schoolbag and go to feed the chickens, ducks and fish. After feeding, he went to the field to help his grandfather weed and plough the ground. Occasionally, he would compete with the neighbors' children for who can finish the fastest.
Each family grows different things. Their family mainly relies on wormwood for a living, which is how he got his name.
Xiai, the little wormwood that brings hope.
He and wormwood are the hope that grandpa relies on to survive.
Although the life in the countryside is not very rich, it is not poor. Grandpa always leaves the best for him. He has been sewing and mending his clothes for three years, but he rides a bicycle for three hours to the city every New Year. buy him new clothes at the mall.
He was already good-looking, and when he wore fashionable clothes, he looked like a doll carved from pink and jade. He was often mistaken for a girl, and every adult would pinch his face when they saw him. In addition to his good grades, he always helps other children to solve problems and questions, and has always been the king of children with the most popular friends in the village.
At that time, he still liked to laugh very much, and he hardly ever felt sad. He was carefree and innocent all day long. Now that I think about it, it was actually Grandpa who protected him too well, covering his first eleven years of life with an airtight protective cover, which did not let him experience any hardships and dangers.
But it is precisely because of this that after the protective cover collapsed and shattered, he was instantly exposed to a variety of human states that made him panic and uneasy.
The hand that spread the feed paused for a moment in trance, and a pigeon flew up, the nails on its paws pierced into the skin. Xia Xiai recovered from the pain and was about to drive away when she suddenly found a small note tied to the pigeon's foot.
He was stunned for a while, then carefully untied it, and slowly unfolded it.
[Task: Go all the way west. ]
30 euros no white flowers!
He jumped up excitedly: "Sister Su Zhi! Look! I've found a clue!"
"Huh? Let's see, all the way to the west... Isn't this the name of the show? What does it mean?"
"It should be to let us go west. , there may be other clues." Xia Xiai turned around happily and scattered all the feed, all of a sudden the pigeons crowded around and blocked the way, but he didn't feel troubled at all, and he laughed extraordinarily. clear.
"Let's go, let's go to dinner first, then complete the task and get the charity fund!"
Su Zhi was dazzled by the bright young man bathed in the sun, and was stunned for a while, until Xia Xiai called her again before she came back to her senses , open the map to see the route.
In the store on the third floor not far from the square, a person was leaning against the window frame and looking down, his eyes fell on the figure surrounded by pigeons in the center of the square.
"Brother Shen! The lady boss said that we have completed the task! This is a puzzle... Hey, what are you looking at?"
You Qing came over curiously to find out, thinking it was some interesting street activity, but instead saw Xia Xiai and Su Zhi two people.
"...Why are they here..." The
photographer heard that carrying the camera and wanted to follow along, but was persuaded by Jiang Liushen's oppressive eyes.
"It should be doing a mission." Jiang Liushen turned his head and continued to look at the square, unconsciously hooking his lips into a smile, "Looking at how happy he is, he is stupid."
You Qing also laughed: "He's not stupid, Xi Ai is smart." Jiang Liushen was rarely
interested in answering him: "Huh?
His character, but he can smile so happily and naturally in front of the camera, shows that he understands what the audience and fans want to see, and is so good at gaining focus and goodwill, isn't it smart?"
Jiang Liu laughed deeply, but his voice was a little cold: "No, I think he's still far worse than you." You Qing thought that he
was complimenting himself, and scratched his head embarrassedly: "Brother Shen has won the prize."
Jiang Liushen was too lazy to talk to him anymore, Still looking downstairs, I saw the tall and handsome young man on the square stretched his long legs and headed west, with the bright Mediterranean sunshine on his face, and the holy flock of pigeons flying up behind him, just like the ancient Greek mythology. The Son of God, a stunning picture like an oil painting.
Does this kind of Xia Xiai need to win the spotlight?
He is clearly the focus itself.
