Vienna, the music capital of the world, has attracted countless top musicians to come here for centuries, and many of them settled in this city surrounded by rivers, mountains and trees.

As the city of Ledu, this is a city shrouded in music atmosphere. Amidst the flowing stream, the sound of leaves swaying in the wind, and the crisp chirping of birds, musicians are improvising the instruments in their hands, which is wonderful. The music is integrated with nature, making it impossible not to stop and enjoy this moment of nostalgia.

It is such a city that has given endless inspiration to countless musicians over the past century, and has continuously forged a magnificent and incomparable musical soul, shocking the world.

As soon as Xiaobo stepped into Vienna, he was extremely excited.

He is usually well-behaved and obedient, but here, it is as if he has felt the call of music and returned to his second hometown.

Bonnie is also very happy. The pervasive music here is intoxicating. Compared with Paris, it is more elegant and unique, and it is another scenery.

However, because the impact of cholera has not yet disappeared, Reid is not willing to let them go out at will.

Several children can only walk around the place where they live in the company of Rhett and Scarlett.

Even so, Xiaobo was also elated.He was still wandering around with the newly bought violin that Scarlett bought him when he was still unfamiliar with fingering.

Bonnie teased Xiaobo and asked him to sign his violin if he wanted to meet some music master on the road.

Xiao Bo thought about it seriously, and then signed his name on his violin.

Bonnie giggled, "When you become famous in the future, this violin will definitely make a lot of money."

Xiao Bo touched Bonnie's head: "I'll give it to you later."

Rhett did not own property in Vienna like in Paris, and the house they lived in was arranged by him in Paris.

He didn't want to live in a hotel with other people. If a guest in the hotel was unfortunately infected with cholera, then the whole family would have the chance to be infected.

Bonnie was not very sensitive to cholera, which was not a terminal illness in her day.

But Bonnie soon heard that cholera was extremely contagious in this era, and there was no effective vaccine, so many people died because of it, which also made everyone feel like an enemy.

But to take a step back, if one of them is infected, she can also use the sporadic healing ability to instill in that person. Whether it can be cured is another matter, but life-saving is still enough.

Because of the emergence of cholera, Vienna, which should have been overcrowded, began to be empty.

Of course, there are still a lot of people who come to visit every day, but it is far from the number expected by the organizer.

The Vienna International Exposition in 1873, in history, was bumpy like the trip of the Reid family to Europe.

The theme of this World Expo is to commemorate the 1866th anniversary of the reign of Joseph I. However, the reason why the Austro-Hungarian Empire decided to host this World Expo is to dispel the haze that has been hanging over the people of the country due to the failure of the Austro-Prussian War in [-].

In fact, since this era, people have consciously admitted that holding international conferences can improve their country's international status and influence, just like the Olympic Games in later generations to demonstrate national power.

Obviously, the Austro-Hungarian Empire also hopes to use this opportunity to revive its international reputation.

Vienna has made great efforts to this end.

Various preparatory projects, including dredging and dredging of the Danube River, renovation of the old city and suburbs, improvement of city appearance, widening of roads and improvement of various municipal projects.

However, no matter how much the Austro-Hungarian Empire attached importance to this event, it was of no use.

You must know that later generations described this as an international event with "troublesome disasters".

Floods before the opening led to project delays. Nine days after the opening, Austrian stocks collapsed across the board. The financial crisis broke out, and many people lost their money. One month after the opening, cholera appeared in the hotel of the World Expo. In nearly five months, more than 2000 people died of cholera.

It can't be blamed for Reid's cautiousness. Looking at such a terrible number, no matter how thoughtful the organizer is to arrange all the venues, who would dare to risk their lives to step into the World Expo.

Because of such a natural disaster*, Vienna has also become a classic case in the history of the World Expo. The number of people admitted is too small, the investment and profit are completely out of proportion, and the loss is huge.

Therefore, when recalling this World Expo, people may only remember the melodious and unrestrained "Blue Danube" created by Johann Strauss, as well as the "Blue Danube" that was born because of an oolong and opened the electrical age. electric motor.

It has been three days since the Reid family came to Vienna, but they have not visited the World Expo exhibition area yet. The reason is that there are constant rumors about cholera in the city, which makes people panic.

Fortunately, the place where they lived was not very far from the place where the musicians gathered, and the music was faintly coming from all directions, dispelling the haze brought by a lot of cholera.

Some musicians will even play ensembles or duel in the air, and the notes full of passion and enthusiasm collide with each other, inspiring endless inspiration and imagination.

It was a sunny day, and the sky was like Bonnie and Bo just happened to come around the corner and ran into an air ensemble.

The music came from their southeast and north, and the distance between the two should not be too far.

But this is all Xiaobo heard, otherwise the others would be blind, thinking that two people are playing together in the same place.

The two sides first tentatively tried each other, like two people who have a crush on each other but don't know each other's intentions, gradually touching each other as their hearts blend.

On one side is a gentle and elegant nobleman, and on the other side is a passionate Roman warrior. The two styles that don’t match seem to merge into one when the music alternates. The creek ran to the distant river together.

Both of them had no intention of meeting each other, so they just said goodbye, and returned to the original life track after comforting each other with the two lonely souls.

For the audience, they may not understand the subtle emotions flowing between the music, but the wonderful collision brings them into an ingenious musical feast.

Music is the language of the world.

In fact, they were not very far from one of the musicians, who was actually just around the corner.

Wade and Ella were very excited and wanted to go and have a look noisily.

Bonnie saw that Xiaobo really wanted to go, so she took Xiaobo and ran all the way.

Xiao Bo was a little shy inside, he was afraid of disturbing these talented musicians.

But it was still a bit late when they went, it was just a short delay, the fiery and heroic Roman fighter had already left with his violin.

Looking at his back, Xiao Bo couldn't help but whispered: "Ah, John."

John?Isn't the musician "John" they met recently the one who taught Xiaobo how to play the piano on the ship?

Seeing Xiao Bo stunned, Bonnie took his hand and continued to run wildly, trying to catch up with the musician.

Scarlett's voice came from behind: "Bonnie, Xiaobo, don't run away, come back quickly."

However, Bonnie is small, and her short legs are a drag. The musician walked farther and farther, and finally both of them stopped panting.

"Are you sure that's John?" Bonnie gasped, her little body still needed exercise. "Is he here too?" But it's right to think about it, this is a musician's palace, and any musician is willing to stay.

Although Xiao Bo was still panting, he helped her breathe: "It doesn't matter, if maybe we can meet again next time."

Scarlett who caught up immediately held Bonnie's hand, "Don't run around, this is not Peachtree Street."

After such a small episode, Scarlett was unwilling to stay here anymore, and took a few children back together.

"I still don't like this place," Scarlett said after returning home from the street, she moved to Reid's side, and took his arm specially. Even though she had just heard a wonderful performance, for Scarlett Said that it was nothing compared to what she wanted to do, "We can't even do such actions outside."

In traditional Austrian culture, husbands are not even allowed to touch their wives on the street.

This makes Scarlett quite dissatisfied with Rhett who is still in a state of love.

"And this," Scarlett pointed to a portrait of Joseph I in the corridor, after all, she still remembered that she was in the country that belonged to Joseph I, and lowered her volume: "I really don't know what kind of hobbies people here have. , There are portraits of him all over the place, and each of them shows him condescendingly staring down at us, which is simply terrifying."

Rhett couldn't help but burst out laughing, "You can just talk at home, don't go outside to talk nonsense, be careful that the moralists here will push you into the Danube."

Scarlett laughed angrily at his words.

But the depressed mood also drifted away.

A woman in love, her lover's best remedy.

Two days later, the wind in the city was not so tight, and Rhett also confirmed that they would visit on the weekend.

The site of the World Expo is located in the beautiful Prater Park on the banks of the Danube River. The pavilion is surrounded by lush trees, forming a natural green landscape. Visitors can choose to go there by horse-drawn carriage or by boat.

After the unification of all the people, Reid chose to take a boat to enjoy the scenery along the Danube and head to Prater Park.

In fact, she refused to let Scarlett take the boat at the beginning.

Even if she vowed to get seasick all the way in order to go to Paris, it was worth it, but this does not mean that she is willing to faint again for this World Expo.

Reid couldn't help laughing at her: "Actually, you don't have to worry. This is not a sea with huge waves. The little waves of the Danube will definitely not make your seasickness relapse."

Scarlett finally agreed to Rhett and decided to pretend to be seasick again when she was on the boat.

Regardless of his public place, the husband cannot touch his wife.

Who made Rhett choose to go by boat?
