But after getting on the bus, the old ghost kept Luo Lian Zhai by his side, and gave the remaining bunk to the senior brother Zhao Daxin.

Needless to say, Luo Liean and Zhai were moved again.

After entering the cabin, the feeling was similar to the one on the ship, but the train was driving more smoothly, unlike the ship, which always swayed left and right.

The freshness passed, and there was nothing to be rare about the train. Seeing the master and the senior brother lying on the bed with their eyes closed, Luo Lie and An Zhai did not dare to disturb them, nor did they dare to walk out of the cabin door alone, so they could only lie on the bed like the master and senior brother lying on the bed with their eyes closed. However, the adults might just be just pretending to sleep, but the boy closed his eyes and soon fell asleep.

When I woke up, it was almost dusk.

Looking around me again, the master and the senior brother were missing. This gave the two brothers the opportunity to chat and talk alone.

"Luo Lie, Master is such a good person, right?"

"Well, seniors, seniors are also good people. An Zhai, we must learn the skills in the future."

When it comes to learning skills, An Zhai couldn't help but become proud: "Luo Lie, Master wants to teach me how to do tricks myself!"

Luo Lie disagreed and said, "What's so cool about it? How can you play with flying knives in a trick? "

An Zhai smiled kindly and said, "I'm not going to learn anything more fun than you. What I said is that I can follow my master, but you can only follow my senior brother's butt, hahaha."

Somehow, Luo Lie suddenly remembered the changing cripple he met on the ship. The cripple showed off his trick of the Three Immortals Returning Cave on the ship. His technique was proficient and had no flaws. I wonder who could be better than him.

"Of course it's the master!" Luo Lie couldn't help but mutter.

An Zhai, who had just jumped off the bunk, raised his face, looked at Luo Lie who was still lying on the bunk, and said suspiciously: "What did you say? Luo Lie, oh, I understand, you must be envious of me, right?"

As they were talking, the master and the senior brother were back, and the senior brother was still carrying a few packages in his hand. As soon as he entered the cabin door, Luo Lie and An Zhai smelled a smell of meat.

"What? Are you a sheep or an ox? Why are you so numb to the aroma of meat?" Zhao Daxin placed the package in his hand on the table between the two bunks, and joked at Luo Lie who was still lying on the upper bunk. Although it was a joke, Zhao Daxin's tone was not very friendly.

Luo Lie quickly got out of bed and sat next to the master and senior brother with An Zhai.

There were no chopsticks, nor did the knife and fork that foreigners used to. Seeing the master and the eldest brother tearing the flesh directly, An Zhai also stretched out his hand, but the eldest brother slapped it and beat him up. An Zhaigang was stunned and heard the master say, "Forget it, if you don't wash your hands, don't wash it. The old man said it's fine, it's not clean, and you won't get sick after eating."

Zhao Daxin quickly explained: "No, Master, I have no rules to beat him. Luo Lie is a senior brother. He should have waited for Luo Lie to come."

… An Zhai’s sense of superiority towards Luo Lie that had been accumulated for a long time was slapped by the eldest brother. What about following his master? So what about being taught by his master? The junior brother is the junior brother, and he will never become a senior brother!

Luo Lie can finally return An Zhai's proud look.

As soon as he tore a piece of meat and was about to stuff it into his mouth, the train suddenly shook. Fortunately, the elder brother reacted very quickly. He first protected the packs of meat on the table so that they would not scatter on the ground. The train slid violently backward for a while, and then rushed forward for dozens of feet. As if he encountered obstacles, he slid backward again, and finally stopped slowly. The master and old ghost leaned up, looked out the window, and shouted softly: "No! There are robbers."

Luo Lie couldn't help but follow his master to look out the car window. Under the setting sun, dozens of fierce bandits riding fierce horses were running towards the train.

The old ghost said anxiously: "Go and call your junior brother and sister here." Zhao Daxin immediately got up and walked out. As soon as he arrived at the door of the cabin, he was stopped by the old ghost: "Tell your junior brother and sister to walk with your waist and stop eating stray bullets." As soon as he finished speaking, messy gunshots sounded outside the carriage.

"Let's go down!" The old ghost gave the order, Luo Lie immediately leaned on the lower bunk bed, and An Zhai hugged his head and hugged on the floor of the car. The old ghost hugged and went to the door of the cabin, took out a piece of colored paper the size of a palm from his arms, spitted on it, and stuck it outside the door of the cabin.

The senior brothers and sisters returned one after another, and everyone was extremely nervous. Even the old master lost the calmness and calmness he had on his usual days.

The robbers mainly aim to rob money, and naturally the sleeper carriage on the train has a lot of money, so it has become the robbers' primary target. Without much time, the noisy sounds of the robbers came from the carriage where Luo Lie and theirs were.

Hearing the robbers' shouts, the senior brothers and sisters all knew the rules of robbers' shooting. Anyone who opens the door can leave after robbing money. However, when they encounter someone who closes the door, they shoot two shots inside without saying a word.

The eldest brother asked Lao Gui with his eyes whether to go over and open the cabin door so that he would not get a few bullets. However, Lao Gui shook his head and signaled everyone to lie down.

It was strange that when the robbers passed by this cabin, they burst into laughter. After the laughter, they heard a sentence from outside: "Okay, let's go to the next carriage to try their luck."

The old ghost only breathed a sigh of relief.

More than half an hour later, the robbers finally got off the train, rode on a fierce horse, and whistled away in the setting sun.

The old ghost went to the door, took off the colored piece of paper, and put it in his arms, explaining to the disciples: "Mr. Andrei is really amazing. Unexpectedly, even the robbers had to give him three points of thinness."

Only then did all the seniors realize that the robbers let them go were not lucky, but because of the face of Mr. Andre, the owner of the Global Circus. The seniors believed it, so Luo Lianzhai had nothing to doubt.

"What a pity my beef!" After the danger, the second senior brother Wang Tao couldn't help but sigh when he thought about the meat he had not had time to eat.

Gan He covered his mouth and smiled, "I asked you to eat, but you insisted on waiting, what happened? Didn't the robbers be attracted?"

Senior brother Zhao Daxin said with concern: "Have you eaten all of you?"

Except for the second senior brother Wang Tao, everyone else said that they had eaten it.

Foreigners are different. Even the robbery is so particular. After destroying the rails, they forced the train to stop and completed the robbery, they also left enough maintenance equipment for the repairmen on the train. The rails were quickly repaired, the train restarted, and after confirming safety, the old ghost kept the second senior brother, and the other senior brothers returned to their respective shops.

The train stopped at the next station for a long time, and many people were injured on the train and needed treatment urgently. Although medicines and treatment materials were also prepared on the train, it was simple after all. Some seriously injured people still need to be sent to the hospital for regular treatment. The dead people also have to be carried out. A not-small corpse was built at the station. After verifying the identity of the deceased, the family will be notified to come and retrieve the corpse.

After the old ghost said the reason why it took so long, Luo Lie was thinking that everyone said how good the United States of America was, but from this point of view, there was nothing good. It was almost the same as our Qing Dynasty!

Fortunately, such an accident happened along the way, and the next six nights and six days were all the way smoothly.

On the seventh day, the train finally arrived in New York, the largest and most prosperous city in North America.

After settling on the land of New York, the United States of America, which had just been formed for a few days, was completely overturned. Looking around, the skyscrapers that were rising from the ground looked like towering giants under the brilliant afterglow.

The shops, restaurants, and cafes are lined up on both sides of the street, neat and bright, and vehicles of all kinds are flying on the asphalt road as mirror-flat. On the sidewalks on both sides of the road, men are wearing suits and ties, and women are rosy and vigorous in their faces. They are not comparable to those of the Qing Dynasty.

The New York Railway Station is at the northern end of New York City, while the Universal Circus is located in the Brooklyn area at the southern end of New York City, and you must pass the Brooklyn Bridge in the middle.

Perhaps it was to better appreciate the prosperity of New York, or perhaps to save money, and it was more likely that even the old ghost didn't know what to take from the train station to the Brooklyn area. In short, the nine masters and apprentices finally chose to walk, asked while walking, and finally arrived at the north end of the Brooklyn Bridge when the sun sank into the sea.

The Brooklyn Bridge, built twenty years ago, was the longest suspension bridge in the world at that time. There were hundreds of steel cables as thick as arms hanging from the granite towers of dozens of meters high. There were only two piers under the bridge that could not be seen at first sight. The main body of the bridge was more than ten meters above the ground. It was necessary to climb nearly a hundred steps to reach the bridge deck, and the bridge deck was dozens of meters away from the sea water below.

Magnificent and spectacular, it could no longer express the shock in Luo Lie's heart. What was even more shocked was how the bridge had no piers, so how could it withstand such a heavy bridge body and the endless stream of vehicles and pedestrians on it.

Luo Lie's heart suddenly trembled when he stepped on the bridge deck for the first step. But then, this worry was wiped out. So many people walked leisurely on the bridge deck. What's the point of worrying about him, a penniless little kid!

After passing the bridge and entering the Brooklyn area, New York's prosperity fell to a level. The Manhattan area at the north end of the bridge is a symbol of wealth and status. The goal of people in the Brooklyn area to work hard every day is to cross the bridge one day earlier and enter Manhattan at the other end.

Although the Global Circus is a leader in the industry, its artistic status quo lies in music, opera or even drama, and its special performance requirements for venues, it is difficult to enter a top art hall such as the Broadway Grand Theater.

Therefore, the Universal Circus, which was committed to the Brooklyn area, was dreaming of one day crossing the bridge, holding its head and chest out to enter Broadway Street for a performance.

The boss Mr. Anderson has not returned yet. His son, Mr. Anderson, general manager of the Global Circus, personally received the old ghost and his apprentice in his office.

"I received a telegram from my father. I expected you to arrive in New York with me in the past two days. I have arranged someone to pick up the station, but I didn't follow up." Mr. Anderson was only about thirty years old, not as blonde and blue as other foreigners. Anderson had black curly hair, and his eyes did not flash blue, but his facial features on his face looked like a foreigner.

Speaking of the people he sent to not receive the old ghost and his party, Anderson couldn't help but shrugging his shoulders and letting everyone sit on the sofa in his office.

Luo Lie has sat on a bench, a bench or even a chair, but he has never seen it before, nor has he sat on a sofa. When he sat down next to Senior Brother Six, he never expected that the bottom of his butt would be soft and he was suddenly shaken and almost made a mistake.

"Thanks Mr. Anderson, it's so late, you're still waiting for us, otherwise we'll sleep on the streets tonight." Luo Lie heard the English spoken by his master Lao Gui for the first time. Although his pronunciation is not very standard, it is still fluent.

Little Anderson ordered the secretary to bring coffee to everyone, then sat up in his boss's chair, picked up a cigar on the table leaning against the ashtray, and started smoking without igniting the fire.

It was strange that the cigar that seemed to have been extinguished actually reignited the light of the fire and sprayed a sip of cigarette comfortably.

Anderson Jr. explained: "I'm really sorry, Mr. Old Ghost, I'm not staying in the office because I'm waiting for you. My habit is to work until nine o'clock every night. If you're ten minutes late, I'm afraid you won't see me anymore. Oh, it doesn't matter. I've already greeted the staff on duty. As long as you arrive, I will arrange food and accommodation for you."

The coffee is hot, which is somewhat similar to the tea in the Qing Dynasty. The smell of coffee is very strange and fragrant, but the fragrance is mixed with an indescribable smell. I saw the old ghost pick it up and take a sip.

An Zhai couldn't help but be curious, and then picked it up and took a sip. As a result, he wanted to vomit but didn't dare to vomit. He wanted to swallow but couldn't swallow it. He held it in his mouth. It was really hard. Anderson saw it and couldn't help laughing.

Master Lao Gui said: "The little disciple has just come from China across the ocean and has never seen the world before, which makes Mr. Anderson laugh."

Anderson was kind and even knew some Mandarin. He said to An Zhai: "This is coffee. At the beginning, it doesn't matter if you can't get used to it. If you get used to it, it will taste good."

The elder brother on the other side picked up the coffee for An Zhai and delivered it to An Zhai's mouth, ordering: "Take another sip, then swallow it, and slowly taste the aroma of the coffee."

An Zhai did not dare to disobey, so he took another sip, closed his eyes, and swallowed it. Luo Lie saw An Zhai's extremely painful look and felt a little disbelief, so he picked it up and took a sip.

It is bitter and astringent, but after it is bitter, it reveals a scent that has never been eaten before.

It's a delicious thing! Luo Lie couldn't help but take another sip.

When the little Anderson saw it, he asked happily in Mandarin: "How is it? Is it delicious?"

Luo Lie raised his head and saw the look that little Anderson was throwing at him. Only then did he know that he was asking him, so he answered in English: "As Mr. Anderson said, it was bitter at first, but it was sweet afterwards."

Luo Lie, who has some English background in China, studied English with Celena for a few days. Although his level has improved by leaps and bounds, his vocabulary is not enough. He can't speak fragrant English and can only use sweet to replace it.

However, Anderson, Little Anderson could still clearly understand what Luo Lie wanted to express, and a smile suddenly appeared on his face: "Mr. Old Ghost, your apprentice is very popular. I think the guys in Manhattan should have the same taste as mine. In time, your apprentice will definitely be on the stage of Broadway and will shine."

Lao Gui said: "Thank you for your praise from Mr. Anderson. The little disciple is still young and needs to study hard and practice hard. It is not advisable to go on stage too early."

Anderson nodded in agreement, then opened the drawer under the office, took out a contract, left his boss' chair, and came to the old ghost.

"I think my father has had sufficient communication with Mr. Lao Gui, but we still need to implement it one by one in the form of words. In your Mandarin, it means 'empty words are free, and the words are established as the basis'. In the words of foreigners, it means signing a contract. I have already drafted a copy, and ask Mr. Lao Gui to take a look and have different opinions, so we can communicate at any time."

Mr. Anderson Little is very meticulous in his work. Even though the Chinese who came to the United States stayed for a long time, most of them could speak but could not write about English. Therefore, Mr. Anderson Little prepared two versions of this contract.

The old ghost picked up the Chinese version of the contract and read it roughly, then said, "No problem, Mr. Anderson, you have considered it more meticulously than your father. I think under your leadership, the new Global Circus will definitely make a name for itself."

Mr. Anderson, a young man, didn't seem to catch a cold for such compliments. He shrugged his shoulders and said, "Since there is no problem, then, does it mean that he can sign a contract?"

While speaking, Mr. Anderson snapped his fingers, and the female secretary at the door immediately brought a pen to the old ghost in high heels.

The old ghost quickly signed the name on the two-fold contract. He was hesitating whether to press another handprint. Mr. Anderson had already bent down with a smile and took away the four contracts.

Back at the front of the main table, Anderson picked up the gold pen on the table, signed the contract, and then divided the Chinese and English contracts, got up and walked over, handed it to Lao Gui's hand. At the same time, he stretched out his hand to shake hands with Lao Gui.

"From now on, we are colleagues. I hope we can work together and stand on the Broadway stage one day as soon as possible."

After signing the contract, it was getting late. Little Anderson called the administrator of the staff dormitory and told him to take the old ghost and his party to the dormitory to rest.

The old ghost once again expressed his gratitude to Anderson, representing eight apprentices, and then followed the dormitory administrator.
Chapter completed!
