Chapter 1103: Suddenly Seeing an Acquaintance
"His mother's! Why is the curry chicken rice at home so delicious, when you get to India, you get sick when you smell curry!" Lu Fei cursed as soon as he got off the plane.
Looking at the airport in Mumbai, Lu Fei couldn't help but sigh secretly, it was so dilapidated ten years ago, and it is still like this ten years later, where has India's proud economic growth gone?
When he arrived at the taxi location at the airport, Lu Fei smiled bitterly: "It's still like this, anything can be driven into the airport!"
Public transportation in India is rather bizarre, taking airports as an example, except for motorcycles, as long as you have four wheels and a motor, you can basically drive in.
Lu Fei has been to India before, but he just thinks that India is a country with poor facilities. But after so many years and seeing so many things, Lu Fei suddenly felt that this country was very funny.
In order to discredit China, the Western media always sing praises to India, saying that they are a model of democracy.
Lu Fei looked at the destitute people wandering around on the street, a large number of poor people lying on the side of the road everywhere, and the man who took out the guy in the alley to release water, and couldn't help but look sarcastic, what a real grandma's democracy, you can sleep wherever you want, you can pee wherever you want.
The comparison between China and India has been a hot topic lately, especially after China's GDP has exceeded $10 trillion, and if the news does not carry China, it will definitely not make headlines.
There are also a lot of comments about China and India, because the two countries have large populations, and they are also bordering countries, and there seems to be a bit of a contradiction in the demarcation of borders.
The views of the Western media are seldom objective, and more sowing discord, and they are eager for another war between these two populous countries.
Lu Fei found these comments funny, India's GDP is only one-fifth of that of China, and they do not have a complete military industrial system at all.
Indian fighter planes, some French, some Russian, some Indian ships, some of the equipment is Russian, some are also English or French. Their army is still wonderful, and the most typical weapon is a self-propelled gun. A Russian-made chassis was used, with French electronics, and then an Israeli gun was welded.
Lu Fei has always wondered how the Indian officers commanded this universal equipment. Take airplanes as an example, their AWACS aircraft are Israel's, but their fighters are French and Russian. The communication interfaces of these three countries are completely different, so how exactly do they fight?
The current situation of this country is like this, but there are many strange remarks, clamoring at every turn that it is militarily stronger than China.
Lu Fei has always wondered where India got the courage to be a country that can't even launch satellites, clamoring for a stronger military force than a country like Huaxia with a complete skyline military system?
was thinking wildly, and suddenly a three-wheeled motorcycle stopped next to Lu Fei, seemingly pulling business.
Lu Fei looked at the dilapidated tricycle, smiled wryly, took out a dollar, handed it to the driver, and then pointed in one direction at random.
The driver was frightened by the dollar bill, and took it and looked at it again and again, for fear that it was fake. Lu Fei sighed, took out a few more Huaxia renminbi from his wallet, and the driver's eyes immediately lit up, and he asked in awkward English, "Are you from Huaxia?"
Lu Fei nodded and said, "Yes, what I gave you is genuine, and the dollar bills are also real." ”
The swarthy driver thought about it, returned the dollar bill to Lu Fei, put away the yuan, and said, "I want this, keep it as a souvenir, and use it in China in the future." ”
Lu Fei was stunned for a moment, and said suspiciously: "Have you been to Huaxia?"
The driver shook his head and said, "I've only watched Huaxia's TV series on the Internet, and I want to go to Huaxia to see it." ”
"TV series?" Lu Fei was puzzled: "Can you see Huaxia's TV series here?"
The driver nodded and said, "Yes, you can see it on a Doudou network, but there are too few subtitles! I want to learn the Chinese language, but it's too difficult!"
Lu Fei laughed, his heart turned out to be like this, and Huaxia is now also playing cultural expansion. Nowadays, on some internationally renowned video websites, there are more and more Chinese TV series, which are basically shot in modern times, showing the life of modern Chinese people. Among them, many TV series that have no good reviews in Huaxia have actually scored high on video websites, which is really fragrant inside the wall.
Riding on a bumpy tricycle, Lu Fei began his journey through the streets of Mumbai.
Compared with the traffic in Mumbai, the traffic in any part of China can be said to be "orderly"!
Lu Fei looked at the cars on the street and smiled secretly, Mumbai is still like this!
Cars with mirrors are new, and those that are a bit old have either had their mirrors removed or never seemed to have been fitted before! Mirrors are completely useless on Mumbai's roads!
Take this tricycle driver as an example, when he wants to change lanes when he wants to drive, someone behind him honks the horn and changes back, and no one presses it!
Lu Fei counted the traffic on the road, and now these two lanes have become 6 lanes, and he can take off the hat of the driver next to him as soon as he stretches out his hand.
Finally out of the city of Mumbai, just on the way to the suburbs, the driver stopped the car, and the road was occupied by a group of monkeys.
I don't know which car dropped a lot of bananas, and a large group of monkeys are having dinner on the road. It's interesting to see this in India, both in the city and in the suburbs, where it's easy to come across wildlife as you walk. These animals are wary of humans and not fearful, and if you have food in your hand, they will come together, otherwise they will go their own way without interfering with each other.
Lu Fei didn't bother to wait any longer, patted the driver's shoulder, and then jumped out of the car and ran towards a side road.
Mumbai is located on the west coast of India, and Lu Fei is going to the north of India, through the country of Nepal and on the Himalayas in China. Although, according to the map, you have to go to the Himalayas at the end of the day, looking for a lake guarded by five mountains.
According to Sharon, the Iron Cross Empire's trip to Tibet failed, and they did not find anything of value at all.
Lu Fei weighed it again and again, and then decided to act exactly according to the record in the picture, so as to find anything suspicious on the way.
According to historical records, the Iron Cross Empire's team, in order to ensure their whereabouts are secretive, appeared as travelers or local merchants all the way, and the means of transportation they used were also environmentally friendly mules.
Lu Fei followed the route they had taken, all the way north, passing through villages in India.
India is a country with a magical caste system, which is the most typical and strict hierarchy in the ancient world.
This system divides people into four classes, namely Brahmins, Kshatriyas, Vaishyas, and Shudras. Brahmins, or the monk class, are the first caste with the highest status, engaged in cultural education and sacrifices. The Kshatriyas, or warrior class, were the second caste, second only to the Brahmins, and were responsible for administration and warfare. Vaishyas are commoners, a third caste, who trade in commerce. The Shudras are the fourth caste and have the lowest status, and are engaged in agriculture and various manual and handicraft labors.
At the same time, many sub-castes, or sub-castes, sub-castes, and more branches were derived. In addition to the four castes, there is also a group of people who are excluded from the caste, the so-called "unacceptable untouchables", also known as "Dalits". They have the lowest social status and are the most discriminated against.
In India, intermarriage between different castes is absolutely not allowed, and the "untouchable" class, which accounts for the vast majority of India's population, is basically equivalent to the destitute slaves, only poorer, not the poorest. Not only that, but they don't get education at all, as well as all kinds of opportunities for advancement.
Under this system, there is no equality between people at all, and the people of the higher castes have almost the power of life and death over the people of the lower castes.
Lu Fei has never been able to figure out whether the Western media should be ashamed when they say that "India is a model of democracy".
Such a system is called "democracy"? Then the people of China are simply living in heaven.
Seeing the landowners in the Indian villages, who treat slaves as non-human beings, Lu Fei couldn't help but sigh a little, in China, those who regard "foreign media" as a golden rule, do they really only have half a bowl of stewed stew in their heads?
Lu Fei walked while studying the map, and found that the places where the map passed, except for the remote paths, were some ordinary villages, avoiding all the cities, thinking that this was for secrecy and convenience at the same time.
Finally leaving the magical country of India, I am about to enter Nepal, a mountainous country with a land area of less than 150,000 square kilometers, surrounded by India on three sides, except for China in the north.
The route on the map shows a straight north through Nepal with little supplies before entering the Himalayas.
Nepal is a mountaineering mecca where you can see mountaineers from all over the world, alone or in groups, who come here to challenge the mountains and achieve their goal of overcoming themselves and nature.
After just walking in Nepal for more than half a day, Lu Fei encountered no less than ten mountaineering teams.
Suddenly, Lu Fei raised his eyebrows, tapped his toes, and jumped onto a boulder on the side of the path.
He looked into the distance, where a group of climbers dressed as tall backpacks, thick hiking suits, and thick-soled hiking boots looked like they were going to challenge a very steep mountain.
Judging from the back, there are men and women in this team of seven people, and the second one in the front is a woman who is not tall. The huge backpack completely blocked her back.
Lu Fei stared at the woman for a moment, his face was first happy, and then he showed a puzzled look, why did this girl come to the Himalayas without any trouble? Could it be that she is on a mission?
