Lake Louise is located 35 miles east of Banff Mountain in Alberta, Canada.
This tranquil lake is home to one of the best ski resorts in the world. The mountains on both sides of the lake are covered with dense green coniferous forests, and on the opposite bank is the majestic and huge Victoria Glacier. The fine sand brought by the glacier across the surface dissolves into the lake, making the lake water a wonderful emerald green.
Alpine, cross-country skiing, heli-skiing and snowboarding are some of the most popular activities here. Ice fishing, ice skating, sledding and ice climbing also attract large numbers of tourists.
Even in summer, there are definitely many people who come here just to enjoy the beautiful scenery.
Xiangyi's move can basically be described as heroic. It directly chartered three large passenger planes and spent three days communicating with the Canadian government. The other side's airport had already sent dozens of tourist buses on standby. The teachers and students got off the plane. Direct to Chateau Lake Louise.
In this way, Wang Xu's school trip began. Of course, in our stories, there are often no smooth sailing and good things happening...
In 1882, in the depths of Banff National Park in Canada, a 40-minute drive from the small town of Banff, an explorer was walking in the mountains and forests. Suddenly, he heard a loud noise, and his Indian guide told him that the sound was Huge chunks of ice rolled off a mountain into a "lake without many fish".
Under the guidance of the Indians, people from the outside world discovered this emerald lake for the first time. From this day on, it has been named "Emerald Lake".
The beauty of this place seemed to be magical, and soon attracted many people. Even the then Governor of Canada came here admiringly. He reported the existence of the lake to Queen Victoria and asked to rename the lake after his wife. (This man's wife is actually Victoria's daughter), from which Lake Louise got its name.
Every year in May, the ice on the lake will melt, and the color of the lake will become less pure due to the snow water from the mountains flowing into the lake with silt, and in October, the lake will be frozen again, so, only in the annual In summer and autumn, the emerald lake will appear here.
With more and more tourists coming for sightseeing, a castle hotel was built by the lake, and Louis’s photo is still hung in the hotel. The luxurious decoration and star service, coupled with the beautiful scenery outside the window, make people who have been to The tourists there are all lingering.
However, in the more than 100-year history of this castle hotel, there are not only brilliance, but also an unusual disaster there...
On July 3, 1924, a sudden fire left a terrible memory for everyone. Coincidentally on this day, the old Chinese calendar reads: Taboo—going to mourning, logging, making beams, and making stoves.
No one may have noticed that on the same day, another unbelievable event is happening on the North American continent...
Bozite Town, an unremarkable town in Texas, USA, many years later, people called it a "ghost town". On that day, the entire town disappeared from the map forever...
"Hey, wake up, this classmate." An uncle in his forties gently rocked Wang Xu who was sleeping in the last row of the bus.
Wang Xu opened his eyes with difficulty, yawned, and finally saw the person in front of him clearly. He had a zigzag face, and his facial features were not prominent. He didn't think he was handsome or ugly.
"Who are you?" Wang Xu's attitude was quite bad. The so-called waking up is three points angry. His jet lag has not reversed, and he slept uncomfortably in the back of the car, so he naturally became more angry.
"I'm Professor Hao."
"I don't know you, do I?"
"I've been teaching you for almost a year..."
"Hmm..." Only then did Wang Xu feel that this guy looked familiar, probably because he had glimpsed this guy a few times every day when he was going to sleep in class.
"Forget it, I think it's jet lag... In short, Wang Xu, you should get off the car. Everyone has already entered the hotel. The driver is going to drive to refuel now."
Only then did Wang Xu notice that he and Professor Hao were the only ones left in the car. He nodded and said, "Oh." Then he got out of the car with the professor.
The air in the mountains is very fresh. After Wang Xu got off the car, he took a deep breath and felt refreshed and full of energy. In this place surrounded by nature, his perception ability made him feel comfortable instinctively. At that second, He seemed to have a kind of understanding, the world is so big, he is just a drop in the ocean, and he explored his feelings like tentacles to his heart's content, as if he had merged with this infinite world, he probably didn't even stand here after inhaling pure oxygen in the hospital It's cool in a while.
However, in the eyes of Professor Hao, his actions were just stretching his waist...
Half an hour later, Wang Xu, Qi Bing and Master Mao were already sitting in the dining room, eating and stuffing themselves. Originally, Qi Bing really didn't want to have dinner with these two, so he deliberately came to the restaurant in advance, hoping to solve the problem of dinner quickly and quietly by himself.
But things turned out to be contrary to expectations, Master Cat came earlier than him, and Wang Xu happened to pass by in the lobby and saw them from a very far away...
"I said, Lao Qi, you are too mean, and you don't call me when you get off the car." Wang Xu chewed a piece of fish that he didn't know what it was.
Qi Bing replied blankly: "Why don't you just leave with the bus... Hey..."
"Damn! You are so inhuman, and you." He grabbed Master Cat's wrist, preventing him from taking more things from his plate: "What are you doing here? There is a pregnant wife at home, you Are you still traveling?"
Master Cat kept stuffing things into his mouth, and he could still talk: "Xiao Gu also moved to S City a few days ago, and it seems that he received an order from Old Fox Yu to monitor the soulless members, and asked him to take care of his old man for me. It's not a big problem for a few days.
Hey... No way, the school is worried about these young masters and ladies, so there are a few places for accompanying medical staff, and I just got one. "
"Wait..." Wang Xu's expression suddenly became extremely wretched: "If I'm not mistaken, one of your 'bosses' has reserved a spot for you, and...she herself has undoubtedly come..."
Before Mr. Cat could speak, Qi Bing interjected: "Although Mr. Cat and we are not on the same bus, when I got off the bus at the entrance of the hotel, I overheard someone say to him, 'Remember to play in my room, the door is always open. Keep it for you' or something."
"Qi Bing, I thought you were a good young man at first, but I didn't expect you to have been assimilated by Wang Xu, and you have become this kind of person..." After all, Master Mao said, naturally he doesn't care about those gossip.
Qi Bing stopped talking, because Wang Xu was the first to complain: "What do you call me this kind of person? How dare you call me? Who was it a few days ago? Ah? The principal ran to him in person and said, 'Please don't be in school. grow marijuana here'. Is this meant for you? Is it not my hallucination?"
"Tch... I just recently got interested in gardening..."
The shameless people are just so brazen, eating and drinking, and wanton. Anyway, foreigners can't understand what they are talking about.
An entire hour passed, and dinner turned into supper. Qi Bing had already found an opportunity to escape, but Wang Xu and Master Mao still persisted in fighting, with the awareness that even death is a hero.
After another moment, finally, they were full...
"Ah..." The two hiccupped in unison, their expressions as ecstasy as possible.
At this time, the waiter brought a plate with a small piece of paper on it, and there was a shocking number on the piece of paper.
"What? Didn't the school cover board, lodging and round-trip air tickets? Why did this guy bring a bill..." Wang Xu asked.
Master Cat shrugged: "Obviously, what we ate was not the standard meal, but we ordered it ourselves, which is an extra cost. It is impossible for the school to pay for all the activities you entertain here, so we have to pay the bill."
Wang Xu looked at him: "Hey... I don't have any money... I thought it was free to come here, I didn't change Canadian dollars at all, I didn't even bring RMB..."
Master Mao's expression was still very calm: "That's it... that's okay, I'll pay it, and I will make some changes to your and my debts..."
After Wang Xu heard this sentence, he instantly felt that he had fallen into an abyss... In this world, even if it is money owed to usury, even though the interest will double continuously, you at least know an exact number, but the one owed to Master Cat This black account, I am afraid no one can tell.
After paying the bill, Wang Xu walked towards the room with heavy steps. The good mood of the trip was ruined by Master Cat after the first meal, but soon, another guy would come to vent his anger.
"Hmph... Wang Xu, I didn't expect you to come too." A tall figure stood in front of him.
Wang Xu looked up: "Chu...Chu..." He seemed to be thinking of the other party's name very hard: "Chu Yunfei!"
I still have Li Yunlong! Naturally, it was impossible for Chu Fan to answer him like this. After all, he was gracious, and it was too much of a shame to complain to a guy like Wang Xu: "It's Chu Fan!"
"oh, I see… "
"What? Don't remember me?"
"I remember, how could I forget? You tried to kiss my girlfriend forcefully in public, but you ended up stealing the chicken and losing money. You didn't even touch her, and you were so scared by the power of domination that you almost peed your pants."
Chu Fan didn't understand the second half of Wang Xu's sentence. The reason why he said it without any scruples was because he was sure that the other party would not understand. He was almost furious, and didn't listen to the words that followed.
"Hmph... Shang Lingxue is your girlfriend? Can you be a poor bastard?"
Wang Xu looked at the other party listlessly, as if she didn't bother to pay attention to him: "It's not your turn to meddle in our affairs... She was not cruel enough at the time, it seems that she should just drive you crazy. "
Chu Fan glared at him fiercely, but was speechless.
"Okay, okay, I'm very busy, don't get in the way." Wang Xu yawned and passed by him, muttering in a low voice: "I really don't know what this guy wants to do..."
What does Chu Fan want to do? Of course he was picking on you, he is the president of the student union, he was publicly humiliated by a little guy like you, and the good thing about forcibly kissing the school belle fell through, where do you want him to put his face? You must be punished by evil before graduation, so that you will never stand up again.
On weekdays, Wang Xu either stays in the dormitory, or plays tricks in the drama club. The drama club is covered by Yanli, the president is definitely not easy to mess with, Chu Fan really dare not offend.
But now, I heard that you and Yan Li are in a deadlock, and you are abroad. According to our young master Chu Fan's usual style, after leaving school, you have the guts to kill and abandon corpses. If you don't act now, when will you wait
Perhaps it is just like Master Cat’s theory, a person who is honest and responsible in his hometown will act unrestrainedly once he arrives in a strange land...
Wang Xu didn't know this, of course he didn't care even if he knew, he just wanted to go back to his room and sleep, but when he opened the door, he met another acquaintance.
Brother William actually lives next door to Wang Xu. At this time, it was getting dark, and he was about to go out and hook up with some beauties so as not to be alone. But when he just left the room, he found that Wang Xu was using a key to unlock his left hand. side door.
"Well...you...you..."
"Ah... What a coincidence... All-in-one card."
"me… "
"I said... where are you going?"
"Wine... bar."
"Oh, goodbye then, good luck." Wang Xu yawned and entered the room.
William's whole body seemed to be falling apart, and he had to lean against the wall to stand firm, "This guy actually lives so close to me... It's not good, and nothing good will happen if I have anything to do with him... Eh? How did he change his sex? It stands to reason Said it should…”
A scene appeared in William's mind. In a bar, Wang Xu was drunk, holding a beautiful woman in his left and right hands. He stuffed large denomination bills into the shirts of the beautiful women with an extremely obscene expression. is their own...
Shaking his head and driving these thoughts out of his mind, brother William shivered, obediently returned to his room, and joined the ranks of the right-hand club...
Night came, and in the darkness, a vague figure moved in the mountains and forests at a strange speed beyond ordinary people.
It is the most terrifying killer lurking in the shadows, a terrifying specter that makes people talk of color. Skimming across the smooth mirror-like lake without causing any waves, it approached the hotel by the lake, staring at the feasting cage with bloodshot eyeballs, all the people in the cage will is its good meal…
