Chapter 7 Smokey Porter, the Girl with Short Hair

In the eyes of Lin Shenlu at this moment, the ancient city of Dali in front of him is like a castle hidden in the mountains in a fairy tale.

Looking far outside the ancient city, the tall city gate is marked with the word Dali.

The thick walls and the dignified colors convey its vicissitudes and long-standing stories.

A momentary dream back to ancient times.

Standing outside this thick city wall gate, it is a transparent fantasy of one's past and present lives.

How can people who have stayed in a bustling big city for a long time imagine that there will be such thick walls and gates in the world, and such a dreamy sense of sight?

There are no tall buildings, no feasting, no bustling and busy traffic.

There is only one point of comfort and quiet.

Thick and magnanimous.

Several tall cherry trees are distributed on both sides of the city gate, which is very beautiful.

It is said that Dali University does not allow outsiders to enter now. The closed learning environment has reasons to prevent and control the impact of the epidemic. Otherwise, the cherry blossom trees all over the campus must be the most beautiful scenery.

Lin Shenlu took a deep breath and strolled along the streets of this ancient city with a history of 200 years.

The heavy historical accumulation makes Lin Shenlu constantly want to look for the imprints left by history on this ancient city.

Dali is really famous for its beautiful natural scenery, rich cultural relics and historic sites, and beautiful ethnic customs. It can be said that it has attracted Chinese and foreign tourists for so many years. Lin Shenlu walked through the city gate together with the rhythm of tourists. gallery.

The boulders with a heavy sense of history are smooth and warm.

Lin Shenlu gently stretched out his fingers across the stones, stroking the cold and hot stones.

It was an empathy for history and culture.

Walking through the promenade and entering the ancient city, it really makes people feel even cute here.

On this ancient street that catches your eyes, those lovely people live here freely.

Beside Lin Shenlu, on the side of the street, a bay of streams ran through the entire old road paved with bluestones, and the stone slabs were mottled in color.

But the water was still very cold.

Such a poem instantly appeared in Lin Shenlu's mind.

Water flows around the front of every house, and willows hang down behind every house.

This kind of poetry and painting can be regarded as a perfect presentation.

Lin Shenlu was somewhat pious at this moment.

It's like the bluestone bricks on the wall that I touched just now.

Feel the centuries-old history of the ancient city.

How magnificent and magnificent the former Dali Dynasty was, how magnificent and magnificent the mood at this moment is.

Especially after coming to this ancient city.

There are streets and alleys everywhere, and people of the Bai nationality can be seen talking and laughing everywhere.

The surrounding houses only have two colors, blue and white, presumably because the ancestors of the Bai people hoped that their descendants would be innocent.

It is said that the finest marble is produced here.

At this moment, Lin Shenlu suddenly discovered a fact that he hadn't paid attention to for so many years.

Is marble called marble because it is produced in Dali?

Rather than just a stone name like other stones?

……

Lin Shenlu, who was walking along the way, happened to pass by a shop selling Bai costumes and shawls.

Among other things, Lin Shenlu instantly fell in love with a pair of dark blue cloth shoes with Bai patterns.

Once you try it on, you don't want to take it off.

It is matched with a pair of dark red loose pants with a large plaid pattern.

Lin Shenlu didn't know if this was a local specialty costume, but he bought it and put it on because of his good mood.

Does this make me feel more like a local?

After walking around for a few laps, Lin Shenlu finally heard the voice of the song.

In the small bar not far away, the wooden windows are surrounded by bright flowers.

A girl leaning against the window frame and playing the guitar was singing affectionately with her hoarse voice.

From Lin Shenlu's gaze, there were no guests in the room through the window.

There are indeed no tourists during this afternoon.

After all, midnight belongs to the bar.

But there is a small bridge across the flowing water, separated by a distance of a few meters.

Lin Shenlu's stop and watch attracted the female singer's attention.

Lin Shenlu also smiled at the moment when they looked at each other.

The female singer's dreadlocks are combed behind her head, and her dark eye shadow and lip color reveal a sense of seduction all over her face.

"I can wait at this intersection..."

"Whether you will pass or not..."

"Whenever I lift my head for you..."

"Even tears feel free..."

"Some loves are like heavy rain, but they still believe in rainbows..."

The female singer looked at Lin Shenlu and sang...

Do you feel lonely or lonely in your eyes?

Lin Shenlu couldn't tell.

Still, she should need herself.

Lin Shenlu smiled and stepped onto the small stone bridge, crossed the flowing creek, and walked along the door on the side of the window to enter the small bar.

Pirate's song.

This is the name of this bar.

Sure enough, the decoration style, the surrounding furnishings and even the female singer who just sang are all in line with the name.

Entering the room, the female singer continued to sing, just as Lin Shenlu saw before.

There are more than a dozen tables, chairs and sofas in the room, except for the singer with smoky makeup sitting by the window and the bartender at the counter.

The characteristic of this bar is that there is no wine list, and dozens of wines on sale are written in chalk on the blackboard behind it.

The bartender in the cabinet is wearing a dark green vest like a director, with a red turban on his head.

"Hey, buddy, what do you want to drink?" the bartender said with a smile, wiping the tall beer glass in his hand.

Lin Shenlu nodded and smiled, looking at the content on the blackboard behind the bartender.

Jungle catcher 40 yuan 8.4 degrees.

Turbidity 42 yuan 6.9 degrees

Ghost Warrior 45 yuan 12 degrees.

Smoked porter 42 yuan 6.4 degrees.

……

All I saw were craft beers, and they were all of high alcohol content.

One bottle of beer of this height is always worth three bottles.

In the early years, Lin Shenlu drank an IPA of Skull Knight. It was so bitter that he felt dizzy after drinking two bottles.

After looking around, Lin Shenlu chose the smokey porter among the imperial sea salt and the smokey porter, probably because there was a female singer with a smoky makeup behind him singing all the time.

When Lin Shenlu returned to her seat, the female singer had already started singing another song.

"Find a girlfriend..."

"It must be a girl with short hair..."

"The girl is patient and kind..."

"It's a pity that the fierce boy is flawed..."

……

This song... I have never heard of it.

From the melody to the lyrics, I don't know anything.

But it is catchy.

The female singer returned to the chair on the stage, holding the guitar handsomely and playing and singing.

But his eyes kept on looking at Lin Shenlu.

Lin Shenlu raised the beer and shook it as a toast to the singer.

"One day I will go out with her on a date..."

"I saw a fierce girl..."

"Dangling in front of my eyes..."

"I was caught off guard by a slap in the face..."

Lin Shenlu almost spit out the beer, what lyrics are these?
