Chapter 248 An Old Man and a Young Man
As a tourist resort, Lijiang has attracted a lot of tourists, which facilitates the local economic development over the past years.
Although a lot of negative news about this place has been exposed recently, it doesn’t affect the local tourist volume. Known as a romantic city, it is a place of great attraction to young people. Its most popular feature is the bar street, which becomes a heaven at night.
When you come to Lijiang with a packsack to appreciate the beautiful scenery, a wonderful romantic affair will add value to your trip. In fact, many single people come here with this purpose. Generally, the majority are male. After all, if they can find a fling in the trip without shouldering any responsibility, they are more than willing to. Even Master Wen, who comes to Lijiang with Gao Ge, feels like taking a shot. He never considers himself old at all.
Long time ago, Gao Ge used to have a dream–to open an inn in Lijiang after making enough money and spend the rest of his life in this place where each season seems like spring. It is an enjoyment for him.
However, now this idea is gone.
Compared with living here, Gao Ge feels like killing people here more.
After he arrives in Lijiang, it has been dark.
Led by Master Wen, Gao Ge arrives at the inn in the bar street.
“Is this it?” Gao Ge asks.
Master Wen nods his head.
“Can you confirm the basic direction?” Gao Ge asks further.
Master Wen looks at Gao Ge and says with a bitter smile, “You are making difficulties for me. I can only say, they are no more than 100 meters away from us but I cannot make it any clearer.”
It is quite simple. It’s like when Gao Ge uses the GPS on his phone, errors may occur at too close a distance.
“How can I find them accurately?” Gao Ge asks.
Master Wen grins and says, “We don’t need to worry about that. After all, we are here. We can settle down first. Moreover, since the apprentices of the Ghost Sect come here, they must not be here for travelling. As long as they take action, it will be easy for us to catch them.”
After saying that, Master Wen walks into an inn.
Gao Ge is speechless.
Looking at the carefree appearance of Master Wen, Gao Ge starts to doubt increasingly that whether this old man really can’t find the specific location or pretend that he cannot in order to have fun in this place.
Generally, when you come to take a tour in Lijiang, you need to book the inn in advance. Of course, Gao Ge and Master Wen haven’t made the preparation. Hence, they go to three inns before they can get a single-bed room. Luckily, there is a tatami of Island country style on the ground. Out of his virtue of respecting the old and cherishing the young, Gao Ge immediately gives the tatami to Master Wen while he himself lies in bed. He claims that Master Wen is old so he had better stay on the ground rather than climb onto the bed.
Regarding this arrangement, Master Wen feels unhappy and tries to demonstrate that the half-meter-high bed is not a big deal for him but Gao Ge doesn’t give him the chance and worries that he may get hurt if falling off the bed.
“Gao Ge, since we are here, shouldn’t we go out for a tour?” Master Wen asks.
Gao Ge says nothing.
“Moreover, it is still early. We cannot do anything in the inn. Maybe we will find something when we are out for a walk.” Master Wen continues saying.
Gao Ge nods his head after considering it for a while, “Okay, let’s go out then.”
Out of the inn is the bar street. You can find relatively more sober bars here, where you can listen to a song and have a drink.
After Gao Ge and Master Wen sit down, a girl with few clothes on sits beside them.
“Handsome, you are quite special.”
Gao Ge is a bit confused. Is he so handsome that even girls will come to hit on him?
“How special am I?”
“It is my first time that I have seen a man coming to the bar with his dad.”
Gao Ge feels embarrassed.
Master Wen is smirking next to him.
It is nice to take advantage of Gao Ge for once.
