As Christmas approaches, many natural fir or artificial fir Christmas trees, as well as scenes of the birth of Jesus, can be seen on the streets and in the windows of the small town of Ronda.

The light rain had just stopped, and the lukewarm air was sweet and humid. They strolled through the empty streets comfortably.The stone steps paved with cobblestones, the simple and exquisite lanterns, and the ancient songs of the Moors seem to be lingering in the ears.

When we walked to the new bridge, the sun peeked out from behind the thin clouds, and the sun shone on the rolling hills in the distance.On the vast land, there are large shadows swimming slowly, which are clouds in the sky.

A series of white huts stand on the top of the cliffs lined with strange rocks. The outer edge of the houses is almost flush with the cliffs cut by knives and axes, as if growing naturally from the high mountains.

People call this small town born in the Roman Empire era countless exciting titles: the city of white sky, the small town on the cliff, the most suitable place for elopement in the world...

The town is divided into old and new urban areas, with a 90-meter-wide canyon across the middle. The old city is built on a cliff.Looking down from the new bridge connecting the two districts, there is a thrilling magnificence.

They checked in at the castle hotel by the cliff, and after a short rest, they took a walk to the bullring—Ronda is the birthplace of the Spanish national sport bullfighting, and the bullring here was built in 1785.The yellow stands and the golden sand field reflect each other. I don’t know how many ferocious bulls run wildly with short knives in their backs, splashing the yellow sand with blood.

Sitting in the stands, Yue Xiaochuan almost remembered how he knew about Longda.

"Baby, do you want to come here because you read Hemingway?" Chu Tianchang put down the camera, sat beside him and asked casually.

"Hemingway? Didn't read much, only learned it in texts."

"He liked it very much and said that Longda is the most suitable place to elope, so this place has become a holy place for literary youth."

When he pointed the camera at himself with a smile on his lips, Yue Xiaochuan suddenly remembered that it was Xiao Quanzi.The diary expert Xiao Quanzi once wrote about this place.

At least a year ago... He lowered his head and rummaged through his phone, and found it.

Xiao Quanzi's nth secret (one year ago):

"If you want to honeymoon in Spain or elope with someone, Ronda is the most suitable... If you don't succeed in Ronda, then go to Paris, part ways, and find a new love. Hemingway said in "Dead in the Afternoon" Write, it can be seen that this place is very romantic. Of course, if you are a bachelor, when I didn't say...

We were on a business trip in France and took time out of our busy schedule to drive to Spain.Longda, bullfighting originated here. With the continuous improvement of human morality, such cruel and bloody performances have become less and less.

Walking around the bullring, he mentioned that Big Boss likes bullfighting very much, and even went to the countryside to watch dogfights many times.Every time I go to the United States, I must watch a boxing match.If it was born thousands of years ago, it must be a customer of the arena.

Ronda is most famous for the city in the sky on the cliff.The mountain wind is strong but comfortable, and there are faint sounds when passing through the empty valley.As the night fell, the sky seemed to fall into a drop of dark red ink, the rose-colored sunset dyed the sky, and a group of birds circled under the new moon...

We stood on the New Bridge watching the twilight. Suddenly, he brushed his hair that was blown by the mountain wind, bent his eyes and said to me: Teach me a sentence in Spanish, any sentence.

I said without thinking: tea

He repeated it, and I said, this means I love you, it's very nasty, and it's generally said teiero

He said that it was difficult to learn, so I taught him this sentence: Sinososeldoloresdulce If we eat each other, then even the pain is sweet, said an Argentine writer.

He smiled, obviously enjoying it.

I said: When I was taking Spanish in college, the teacher taught it to remind us not to fall into such an extreme love.

He said that when he was in college, there was a winter vacation. The middle-class brother wanted to go skiing in the Pyrenees, but he was not interested. He just wanted to stay in the warm room and play "Plants vs. Zombies".Soon after, the young and energetic middle-class brother flew away alone.

When the other party came back, although he hadn't cleared the game (because he was really not good at playing games), he felt that the happiness he gained was no less than traveling to Europe.

I said: You can take the computer with you, you play games in the hotel, and he skis on the mountain.

He lowered his eyes, then smiled: You are right, but neither of us thought about each other at the time.

The next day, we went to the olive farm to pick fruit during the day, and drank coffee in the evening to wander around the new area.Passing a secluded place, probably the outer wall of a private kindergarten, it is full of childish graffiti, and there are a few chalk stubs in the corner.I took a picture here, and he laughed at my childishness.

Walking to a more prosperous area, I saw street artists singing.I took 10 Euros and asked the other party to sing "besaucho" for us.He listened to it for a while and said he knew it was a classic old song, but he couldn't remember the name.

He asked: What is it called?

I said: Kiss me.

He looked around, blushing and quickly touched my lips.I smiled and told him that this song is called "Kiss Me Deep". "

In the evening, they ate stewed oxtail, garlic rabbit, and rabbit stewed mushrooms at a restaurant in the new district—Yue Xiaochuan ate a lot of mushrooms, while Chu Tianchang ate all the meat under his resentful gaze, and even complained about him It's the guy picking mushrooms.

Then I didn't know what to think of, and an evil smile appeared on his lips. Under Yue Xiaochuan's questioning, he said: "Have you ever heard a very old joke, the protagonist of the story is a little bear who picks mushrooms."

Then he stopped talking, saying that it was against his aloof temperament, and asked him to check it with his mobile phone.

The boss is very enthusiastic. He heard that they came from a long distance to participate in the film festival, and specially sent a can of tomato sauce made from crushed fresh tomatoes. He said that it is very delicious to spread on the bread with Spanish olive oil.

They accepted it happily, and were discussing to buy olive oil later, when the boss took out two bottles with a smile and began to sell them.

"There is an olive manor nearby, and a Smurf village... Besides the black cat sheriff, is there any Smurfs for your first love?" After buying the olive oil, Chu Tianchang teased.

"No, because they are too strange a color to interest me."

When checking out, the boss warmly recommended other local restaurants to Chu Tianchang, while Yue Xiaochuan showed his mobile phone to the waiter, and there was a sentence he had translated on it: Is there a kindergarten nearby?Although his face was puzzled, the waiter still answered in a jerk.

Strolling in the streets, Ronda is more lively at night, many shops are closed in the afternoon, and then open until late.The pace of life is still slow, and the soft yellow street lamps are sprinkled on the stone road, which is indeed a suitable place for elopement.

Every time he passed by a small wine shop, Chu Tianchang's eyes glowed like a hungry traveler in the desert seeing an oasis.

"Spanish wines are also very delicious, and the taste is not inferior to French ones. Have you ever drank Tempranillo?"

Yue Xiaochuan shook his head, thinking of some martial arts inexplicably from this word, "Do you know Mr. Chu, when I was young, I thought Portugal was a country that supplies grapes to the whole world."

"Don't be cute, I can't help but put you to death on the spot."

"Director Huang Bao."

"In the 19th century, one year French grape plantations suffered from phylloxera, and almost no crops were harvested. Then, the owners and winemakers bought wine from Spain and sold it under the OEM label. The wine here gradually became famous..."

Chu Tianchang introduced the history of Spanish wine in a different way. While listening, Yue Xiaochuan followed the guide translated from the waiter's voice and found the graffiti-covered kindergarten exterior wall.

"Honey, I've become a man again, and I can completely control my drinking." Chu Tianchang stopped, leaned over suddenly, and there was a wall thump outside the kindergarten, "I think I can drink a little wine. It can prevent heart disease." Cerebrovascular disease, beauty, don't you want your husband to be more handsome?"

"You're almost middle-aged, you're pretty." Yue Xiaochuan was shrouded in shadow, and retorted with a smile, "If you drink one cup today, you'll want to drink two cups tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow you'll turn into one bottle, and then start again. Tons of lives."

"Absolutely not, I swear."

"Let me think about it." Lingdong's eyes turned slightly, and they landed on the beverage shop in the distance. "Go and buy me a cup of coffee. I'll wait for you here."

After Chu Tianchang walked away, he immediately faced the fence, and searched for it like a mystery under the cover of the dim street lights, and a strange excitement surged all over his body.

Soon, he found Xiao Quanzi's souvenir.The traces of chalk are already light and mottled, but it can still be barely discerned that Xiao Quanzi's real name is Gu Quan.

It sounds familiar, where have you heard it...

He paced along the walls, admiring the rustic and lovely graffiti.Suddenly, on the wall a few steps away, he caught a glimpse of a familiar name and could hardly believe his eyes.

Xinchi.

Next to it, there is also a small rocket that shoots a heart in the direction of "Gu Quan".

He straightened his back suddenly and looked around vigilantly, like a pirate who was the first to discover a treasure.He just got a glimpse of what might be the biggest gossip of the century.Two more rains and the marks will be completely unrecognizable, integrated into the town's history.

Getting closer again, he noticed that Xin Chi wrote his name very small.Despite the risk of being discovered, even though he laughed at "Xiao Quanzi" for being childish, he still left traces.

The footsteps gradually approached, and it was the middle-class brother in the story who came back with two cups of coffee.

"What about studying murals?" Chu Tianchang casually glanced at the graffiti all over the wall.

Yue Xiaochuan took a cup and sipped it on his lips, hesitating whether to share this shocking secret.If not, let it be buried in the secret forest forever.

"Hey, do you know what this sentence means?" Yue Xiaochuan copied a string of letters into the translation software, listened to the voice several times, and then repeated, "Catch and touch."

"I don't know." Chu Tianchang smiled and shook his head.Of course he understands such simple Spanish, just like every foreigner can yell "Hello, thank you".

"Hey, I won't tell you." Yue Xiaochuan walked a few quick steps and looked back with a smug smile.
