The arrogance of the city

Chapter 710 Journey on which the sun never sets (2)

After the two walked out of the Parliament building, they looked up and saw Big Ben.

Although today's Big Ben cannot hear its bell temporarily due to repairs, it still does not prevent people from admiring its magnificence.

The golden coat, no matter it is under the tower or high in the sky, has its unique charm in 360 degrees. Together with the Palace of Westminster, the two are like Siamese twins, and they are the most heroic sights beside the Thames. Landscape.

Unlike the Parliament Building, the interior of Big Ben is only open to the local people of England.

After taking photos with He Caiwei under Big Ben, Li Futu led her across Westminster Bridge to the other side.

Because there stands another city card of London, the London Eye.

He Caiwei is now honestly acting as a marionette, almost wherever Li Futu takes her, she will go there, without expressing opinions at all.One is because she is completely unfamiliar with foreign countries, and the other is that she has fully understood how knowledgeable this man is.

In front of her mother's hospital bed, this man mentioned the customs and customs of various countries with ease. She thought it was a bit exaggerated at first, but now she finally realized that he might have been to all the places he mentioned at the beginning.

But they are all the same age in their 20s.

He Caiwei smiled bitterly in her heart, but she didn't feel any jealousy.

Who would be jealous of their own man.

"I seem to have seen it somewhere before."

Boarding the London Eye, as the car gradually climbed to the highest point, with a panoramic view of London, a sense of familiarity also hit He Caiwei's heart.

"This is the London Eye. Many domestic film and television dramas have been filmed here. The last time you watched the movie with Aunt Xiao, some scenes were filmed here."

Li Futu explained.

He Caiwei suddenly realized.

Looking down on the city of London from a high altitude is indeed very different. The originally tall Big Ben shrunk into a small rectangle, but it still couldn't hide its gleaming by the Thames River.

"London Eye? That's a good name."

He Caiwei smiled and said, to put it bluntly, this place is similar to the Ferris wheel in China, at best it is larger in scale, but because of a name, the style has suddenly risen several levels.

It took about half an hour to circle the London Eye. After getting off the London Eye, the two walked slowly and melodiously north along the Thames River.

"It would be nice if time could stop at this moment forever."

He Caiwei took Li Futu's hand and leaned her head on his shoulder.

"You even know the Goddess of Wisdom, so do you know the God of Time?"

Seeing the sly look in the girl's eyes, Li Futu couldn't help but smile.

At this time, He Caiwei is obviously very different from the one he first met.

He is very pleased with this change.

Who said that life is just like seeing it at first sight?
"Do you have money?"

He Caiwei said suddenly, turning her head to look to the left.

Li Futu also looked up and took out his wallet.

On the square over there, stands a 'bronze statue'.It was said to be a bronze statue, but in fact it was just a person covered in bronze paint all over his body. He stood there motionless with his hands hanging in front of his chest. At first glance, he really looked like a lifeless sculpture.

He Caiwei took the pound from Li Futu and ran over, bent down and placed it gently at the foot of the bronze statue.

Just when she straightened up and was about to turn around and leave.The bronze statue moved suddenly.

It was as if the sculpture was suddenly endowed with a soul. His movements were extremely slow, and he gently grabbed He Caiwei's hand, and stroked He Caiwei's face with one hand. His eyes were peaceful and kind, as if the Lord was blessing him.

For some reason, this peaceful scene seems to have a huge power that directly hits people's hearts, making people feel moved to the point of tears.

A lot of people around picked up their cameras.

"Street performers like them are really great."

Sitting in a restaurant, He Caiwei looked out the window and whispered.

There, the bronze statue resumed its still posture.

She doesn't believe in ghosts and gods, and doesn't follow religion, but just now that hand gently caressed her face, and from the fingertips, it seemed that there was a power that penetrated the soul.

This is the charm of culture.

This is Covent Garden. Although it is called a park, don't think it is really a park.This is actually an old market in London. The typical ancient Roman market has become more down-to-earth because of people and beer.There are so many restaurants and souvenir shops here, enough to break the saying that there is no food in England.

"I think it's more appropriate to call them masters of art."

Li Futu commented in this way.

There is no shortage of such people in the country, but they are called beggars.

It's not to blame for the belittling of outsiders, it's just because the two sides have different perceptions of themselves.

After eating, the two got on the ferry and went down the river.

"Do you know where this is?"

Li Futu looked at a suspension bridge in front of him and asked with a smile.

He Caiwei shook her head.

"Haven't you seen Harry Potter?"

"I saw it, what's the matter?"

Naturally, He Caiwei has seen this kind of world-renowned blockbuster.

"Then you don't think this place is familiar?"

Li Futu is like a competent tour guide.

"There is a crumbling scene at the beginning of one of the parts. The Death Eaters invaded the Muggle world and made a big fuss. The bridge destroyed in the scene is the Millennium Bridge in front of us."

Connecting the south bank to the city, this reinforced steel suspension bridge is only for pedestrians, and its light and slender shape is like a silver belt on the Thames.

Because the two communicated in Chinese, the tourists around couldn't understand them, otherwise they would probably be surprised by Li Futu's erudition.

"In front of you, I really feel like an ignorant fool."

He Caiwei smiled wryly, even though she knew that this was her man, she still couldn't restrain the frustration in her heart.

"If you compare with me, then you are asking for a blow."

The corners of Li Futu's mouth curled up slightly.

"Hate!"

He Caiwei patted him, and threw herself on him.

When the ferry passed the Millennium Bridge, Li Futu took her off the ferry.

"Here I know, this is St. Paul, the place where Princess Diana was married."

He Caiwei said immediately, her voice was a little high, as if she wanted to regain a little confidence.

That's right, St. Paul's Church is indeed in front of the two of them.

The Baroque-style dome church is like a phoenix in flames, and its gorgeous dome can be glimpsed from the Thames River. When you approach it, you will be awed by this magnificent spectacle.

People at the foot of the cathedral held up their cameras, trying to record the whole picture of the church.No matter how noisy the surrounding traffic is, the plants and trees accompanying here seem to be calmly recalling the grand wedding ceremony of Princess Diana here.

Sao Paulo is still unchanged, but the beauties who once put on wedding dresses here have disappeared.

"Go in and have a look."

Li Futu said softly.

Diana.

The most acclaimed princess in the world died in a car accident, leaving behind a son and a daughter.

The boy's name is Harry.

The girl's name was Louise Windsor.
