sunny!
When I walked out of Guangxi Beihai Airport, my first impression was that the air here is really good!
There was some uncontrollable excitement in my heart. Especially when I walked out of the customs, I saw people with yellow skin and black hair coming and going...
Listening to familiar Chinese words... Of course, many of them are dialects.
But even so, the excitement in my heart was quickly revealed on my face.
We first flew to Shanghai, and then transferred from Shanghai to Beihai City, Guangxi.
This is a seaside city, but because there is no industry, the air in the whole city is very good. The sun is plentiful, which makes people feel lazy. Although I have been flying for nearly twenty hours, I still don't seem to feel too tired.
As a group of us walked out of the airport, we all felt relieved. After a long journey, the first thing we do is take out our cigarettes... For those who are addicted to cigarettes, being unable to smoke for more than 20 hours in a row is really a kind of torture.
The exit pick-up area at the airport was crowded with many people. Beihai City's airport is very small, and the pick-up exit is not big, and it is crowded with many people. I also saw people from a tour group walking by. Coincidentally, I seemed to hear some of them speaking Nanjing dialect...
To say something ashamed... Suddenly I heard the local accent, and I really had the urge to cry on the spot!
I stood there in a daze, and there was only one voice in my heart:
I'm back home! I'm finally back home! !
My first reaction was to look up at the flight schedule at the airport... At this moment, I had an impulse! Just buy a ticket back to Nanjing immediately! Fly home!
It’s been so long since I’ve been out, it’s the first time I feel so close to home…
"Tiger!" Just when I was in a daze, I felt Tiger pat me, and then there was such a shout from a distance.
I saw a lean man standing at the exit of the airport. He was wearing a baseball cap and a very casual jacket. He was very short, only about 160 centimeters tall, with high cheekbones. , typical characteristics of southerners. But it can be seen that his body is very strong, although he is thin, he is not weak.
Tiger walked over, hugged him warmly, and then pulled us aside.
"This is Xiao Wu, Xi Luo. The good brother who came with me this time." Tiger introduced, and then pointed to the man in front of him: "Ponytail, stallion's horse, tail's tail, haha! "
Ponytail didn't seem to care about the joke, he looked at Shiro and me seriously, and then hugged us. His arms are very strong, I can feel his arms hidden under the clothes when hugging, the muscles are very strong!
"Let's go, my car is parked outside." Mawei enthusiastically led us out of the airport.
This is a very old red Inger car with a displacement of only 1.4, but this ponytail is like a lunatic when driving!
Have you ever seen a 1.4 car speeding down a city road at a speed of 100 yards? And it was still broad daylight!
I listened to the sound of the engine, and I was really worried that he would blow the cylinder while driving like this! But Mawei looked like he didn't care. He even chatted with us when he was driving. But our topic is limited to the weather or some gossip. He never asked us a personal question, never said a word.
The city of Guangxi is not big, but a small city naturally has the benefits of a small city... It's very clean here! The air in the seaside city is filled with a faint salty smell. And the climate here is very warm, which is very different from Vancouver.
We had already taken off our coats and only wore a shirt. Mawei was a very enthusiastic landlord. He drove us around Beihai City, and then parked the car at the mouth of a sandy beach in Beihai.
"This is the No. 1 beach in the world." He smiled and pointed to an inscription on a boulder, which was left by a certain country leader. However, I always feel that this beach is very dilapidated and the scenery is very ordinary. The gravel on the beach is very rough, and there are even some pebbles, which seems to be far from the title of "No. 1 in the world".
During dinner, he took us to a seafood stall near the sea. This immediately aroused my great interest!
For me, since I went abroad, this domestic roadside food stall scene is already a precious picture that only exists in my memory.
Ordered a dozen Tsingtao beers, ordered some barbecue snacks, and some seafood like scallops and squid, and we all sat around a dirty round table.
Xi Luo is obviously very new to this kind of scene... This is the first time he has returned to China, such a scene, eating in such a dirty place like the road, is probably unbelievable to him...
He is a child who grew up in Canada. In his concept, such a dining place may not even get a license abroad! Watching us bite off the cap of the beer bottle in one bite, then take a bite of beer, then a bite of barbecue, and then throw the bamboo sticks all over the floor, this kid is somewhat uncomfortable.
"Our ship is at night." There was no one around, Mawei took out an envelope from his arms and handed it over, "Here are the tickets, four in total. I will go to Vietnam with you. There is also our travel visa inside and a pass for transit. Also…”
He glanced at Tiger: "Our target is also on the same boat as us. There are two of them. Now I let my brother keep an eye on them. Don't worry! They are at the pier now, eating just like us. Mawei smiled and said, "I'll take care of things, don't worry."
Tiger nodded, collected the boat ticket, and said with a smile: "Yes, I can rest assured that you are doing business! We have been brothers for so many years!"
Then Tiger and Mawei talked for a few words. They used the local dialect, and Xi Luo and I couldn't understand a word. But seeing them laughing and chatting, I am sure of a few points: Tiger seems to be from Guangxi! It might even be from the North Sea!
Tiger seems to come back often! At least it's not the first time he's had contact with a ponytail!
Probably after drinking a few glasses of beer, the atmosphere became more harmonious. Mawei let go of his words a little, and he touched me with a glass: "Brother, is this your first time returning to China?"
I smiled and didn't speak, but simply drank the wine in the glass. Tiger frowned slightly, and glanced at the ponytail. He immediately realized that he had lost his composure, and quickly smiled: "Sorry, I drink too much and talk too much, well, according to the discipline, I shouldn't ask these questions, I will punish myself with a drink!"
After drinking a few glasses of beer, my body was sweating a little. The sea breeze was blowing, and it felt really refreshing on my body. I couldn't help but stood up, left my seat, and walked slowly towards the beach.
I close my eyes, I really have an impulse in my heart...
He touched the phone in his pocket... Do you want to call home
This rush, this moment is really stronger than ever! My fingers were trembling, and I had already touched the phone in my pocket, but it was too late, and my fingers didn't press down...
Behind me, Tiger approached me wordlessly, and he patted my shoulder lightly. When I turned around, I saw Tiger looking at me with deep eyes. Then he pulled me back to the table, and we toasted together and drank it down!
…
At eleven o'clock in the evening, we drove to the port of Beihai City.
Here is the exit. Mawei parked the car, then took out his own backpack from the trunk, and made another phone call. He spoke the local dialect on the phone. After speaking a few words, he smiled at us: "Okay Yes, they've gone through customs and boarded the ship. We can go too."
I silently followed the three of them at the end and checked the time.
Ten past eleven.
I smiled wryly, from this morning to now, I have only stood on domestic land for more than ten hours...
From Beihai to Vietnam, there is a very convenient way to take a cruise ship!
Beihai City has a direct cruise ship to Vietnam. You can go to Vietnam by boat and arrive there in one night. And here, the tourism industry is very developed, especially several famous Southeast Asian cruise ships stop in Beihai, the most famous of which is the "Princess Minghui".
This is a luxury cruise ship registered in Panama that can carry thousands of people! There are entertainment centers, large restaurants, bathing centers, nightclubs, and... casinos on the cruise ship! !
It is also very easy to go to Vietnam from Beihai Customs. There is a Vietnam Customs office here, and you can directly apply for a tourist pass. When we got out of the customs, we checked our luggage, and took the ticket, we went to the deck!
"Xiao Wu, you and Xi Luo live in 307, the second-class cabin, and we are in 310... Pay attention to our next door! That's the goal this time."
The cabin is very small, but very clean, and there is a separate bathroom and toilet! For a luxury cruise ship, these hardware facilities are quite good!
Because the boat departed at twelve o'clock, after we entered the cabin and sat for a while, we heard a dull whistle, and then I could feel the hull start to move...
Shiro and I exchanged glances, put down our things and walked out of the cabin at the same time. In the corridor, we saw Tiger and Ponytail also came to open the door. And their eyes looked at the end of the corridor ahead.
Two men had just come up the stairs at the end.
There is a staircase leading to the deck on the left side of our second class cabin, and then there is a door turning in, which is the entertainment center. The four of us walked into the entertainment center one after another.
A recreational ball game is going on here.
My eyes fell on the two men who were buying chips over the counter.
One of them is my goal!
