Morris: They sat in a scattered manner in the bar, leaving the owner and the hostess at the bar.After the bar owner asked the bartender to bring the wine ordered by Morris, he was satisfied and poured two glasses of wine for Yang Jing and Gege, pushed them to the two of them, and then grabbed a bottle of cold beer and poured himself a glass, and asked with a smile: "You are Chinese, right?"
”Yang Jing smiled and gave a thumbs up to the bar owner, "Your eyesight is really good, we are indeed from Huaxia."
But along the way, you are still the first person who can tell at a glance that we are Chinese. ”The bar owner shrugged his shoulders, "It's nothing.Our place is a relatively remote place, although few Chinese people came in the past, but in recent years, we can still see more than ten Chinese people every year.In fact, there are still many differences between you Chinese and Koreans.For example, you Chinese people are usually more atmospheric, and your eyes are usually very positive, which makes people feel very comfortable at first glance.He said that he always dodged when he saw people, and he couldn't help but bow when he saw people, as if everyone in the world was their elders.As for the Koreans, it's even more recognizable, all of them are single eyelids" Although the bar owner didn't speak English fluently, he still made Yang Jing and Gege laugh.The owner of this bar is really a wonderful person, and he said it so brilliantly.Seeing the little two laughing, the bar owner also happily poured a big sip of beer and said with a smile: "I'm Schroedersteder, it's nice to meet you."
Oh, you can call me Schroeder. ”"We are also very happy to meet you, I am Albert Young and this is my new wife, Sophia White.Schroeder, I have to say that your wine here is really delicious. ”Yang Jing's praise made the bar owner even happier.Gege asked curiously: "Schroeder, listening to your name, you don't seem to be Italian." ”"Yes, I'm not Italian, I'm Austrian from the north.This used to be Austrian territory, and my ancestors lived here, but after World War II, countries redrew their borders, and it somehow became the territory of the Italians.It's a very infuriating thing.In fact, not only Venosta, but also Lesia to the north has always been an Austrian place, and most of the inhabitants living here are Austrians. ”Yang Jing shrugged his shoulders and said: "There is really no way to do this, in front of those damn politics, we ordinary people can only bow our heads."
Come on, Schroeder, let's have a drink for that damn politics. ”"Well, to those damn politics!"
A large glass of beer with a liter of beer was consumed by Schroeder in two sips, and it was obvious that this guy had a good amount of alcohol.After Schroeder poured more wine for Yang Jing and Gege respectively, he poured himself full again, and said with a smile: "My wife went out to her aunt's house early this morning, so I can drink two glasses secretly." ”Ge Ge Waner, Yang Jing smiled bitterly."
Schroeder, your scenery here is very good, but why aren't there many tourists?"
Schroeder shook his head helplessly and said, "Isn't it all because of those damn Italians?"
There are so many reasons for this kind of thing, I don't know how to explain it to you.All in all, it's what you just said that can sum up all the reasons, and it's all done by those damn politics. ”Seeing that the bar owner was about to tilt the building, Gege immediately changed the topic with a very good look, "Schroeder, we saw that there is a church bell tower in this lake before, this is really a very puzzling thing, can you tell us about it?"
”"Ha, so you don't know where this lake comes from."
Schroeder naturally took the initiative to change the topic along with Gege's question, "In fact, this lake also has a name, called Bell Tower Lake, because when the reservoir was impounded, the Venosta was completely submerged, but at that time, a church in Venosta was located relatively high, and the height of the bell tower was not short, so the water surface submerged all the other buildings in the village, except for the bell tower of this church, which was still half exposed above the water, and then formed this unique scenery in the world."
However, thanks to this half-jutting bell tower, it attracts a lot of tourists every year, and we in Venosta and the people of Lesia in the north can rely on these tourists to survive. ”After a pause, Schroeder sighed a little helplessly, and then continued: "This has to be said to be a sadness.I've heard my grandfather talk about the past, well, before the reservoir was filled.At that time, Venosta was a quiet and peaceful village, and the Adige River, which had just flowed down from the snowy mountains to the east, was not large enough to provide enough water for the inhabitants of this valley, who had been farming here in the days of our ancestors, and although they were not rich, they were peaceful and quiet. ”"Later, the Germans occupied all of Austria, and the gorge where we were located was the easiest mountain pass to Italy, so it was occupied by the Germans for a long time, but even then the Germans did not make a big deal about us."
Yang Jing pretended to be surprised and interjected at the right time and asked, "This place was occupied by the Germans before?"
”"Of course, during World War II, the whole of Austria was occupied by the Germans, so how could we escape here?
And as I said earlier, this is the most important passage from Austria to Italy in the Alps, how could the Germans let it go?
”Schroeder shook his head and said, "We Austrians don't have the determination of the Swiss next door, so Austria was annexed by the Germans.Although Austria and Switzerland have never dealt with each other, we have to say that the Swiss did really well back then.In order to prevent the German invasion of Switzerland, Switzerland, which had only four million people at the time, actually mobilized an army of up to 850,000 people, and the terrain in Switzerland was indeed not suitable for the Germans to deploy mechanized troops. ”Finally, Schroeder sighed again, "Why didn't we have such a tough leader at that time?"
”"If you had rebelled as much as the Swiss did, maybe this place wouldn't exist."
When I was reading history, I remembered that when Hitler was about to annex Austria, Mozlini seemed to have sent several divisions to hoard on the Italian-Austrian border. ”Schroeder nodded helplessly, and finally could only curse in a low voice: "Damn Sitler, damn Mozlini" Yang Jing continued to pretend to be curious and asked: "Then were the Germans good to you locals here back then?"
”Schroeder shook his head, then nodded, "What so?"
I wasn't born yet.But I've heard my grandfather talk about that time countless times.My grandfather once told me that because of its location, the Germans used to set up a huge transit station here in order to better connect with the Italians, and at that time, this valley more than ten kilometers long was full of German military camps, and thousands of German soldiers were stationed here, and our Venosta used to be the location of the German army headquarters of this transit station. ”Then, Schroeder smiled and said: "It's also helpless to say, my grandfather was a chef, so at that time he had to cook for the hateful Germans, but what can be done?"
In order to survive, people had to bow their heads under the pressure of knives and guns.According to my grandfather, during those years, we could not live in the house that belonged to us, so we had to build our own wooden houses outside, and our own houses were all occupied by German officers. ”Yang Jing scolded at the right time: "Damn it." ”"yes, that's a bunch of scum!"
Schroeder raised his glass a little depressed and took a big sip of his own."
Isn't Venosta where it is now?""
Of course, according to my grandfather and my father, Venosta was still about 300 meters west of here.At that time, although our village was not large, there were more than 200 people.At that time, the houses in our village were all made of stone, and they were very strong.Well, it's a bit of a bad time for you to come at this time, if you had been here a few months earlier, you could have dived down and seen the small village of Venosta, instead of looking at the lone bell tower on the lake, as you do now. ”"What if we dive down now?"
Gege asked."
Now?"
Schroeder's eyes widened in surprise, "What a joke!"
Don't you want to live?
Don't look at the current lake water is not frozen, but the current lake water temperature is very low, and if you dive in it, it is easy to die due to body hypothermia. ”"And what if we use a drysuit?"
Yang Jing asked with a smile.Schroeder was stunned for a moment, and then said helplessly: "I don't know your plans, but my advice is that it is best not to enter the water at this time, even if you use a dry wetsuit." ”Yang Jing whistled at Clark, and Clark, who was tall and tall, immediately stood up and made a bodybuilding movement with bent arms.Yang Jing smiled and said, "Do you see it?"
This guy is my bodyguard, he's a retired soldier of the Delta Force, and the lake water at this temperature is nothing to him.And the others, almost all of them.Schroeder, the main thing is that I have a big hobby, which is dive photography.As soon as I saw the lake, I knew I had to dive in and take a few pictures, and if I didn't take pictures of the clear water, I would definitely not be able to sleep for many nights. ”Schroeder looked at the group of big men, and finally gave Yang Jing a thumbs up, "Man, in fact, I knew you were not simple from the first time I saw you.Since you're going to be diving, I suggest you rent a wetsuit from the scuba shop in Old Waltz on the west side of the village.His wetsuit was the best of his generation, and the old Walz guy had a nice yacht. ”ps: Bow and thank "Dandanlong" for the tip of 500, and "xiaozhu000" for the tip of 100.
