Chapter 770: Old photos in the phonograph

Winslow is a standard western town: there are cars, houses and no people. Xiao Peng drove down the street. He thought he was in a ghost town. He finally saw a person leaning on a telephone pole. Xiao Peng leaned over and wanted Asked for directions, but found that it was a statue of Don Henry, the home of the Eagles.
The people of Star Stripe people are especially fond of building statues for people. You introduced us to our town by writing a song? Okay, I will erect a statue for you; you have done a good job as the mayor in our city, okay, I will erect a statue for you; even the outer wall of the Supreme Court of the Federal Supreme Court of the Stars and Stripes is engraved with a statue of Confucius, I don't know how they connected Confucius with the court.
A few days ago, there was a joke about the statue. An ingenious artist directly launched the Apgu body statue in the main bustling streets of the five major cities of the Star-Strong Nation: San Francisco, New York, Los Angeles, Seattle, and Cleveland. The exhibition also gave the statue a name, "The Emperor Has No Eggs", which is called a hot one. It even went to auction in the end, and the price was pretty good.
It’s very interesting in Xingtiao. Let’s take the media as an example: the Xingtiao country’s media is absolutely non-verbal, free, and can’t joke about religion, women, or disabled people, or even about it. Fatty is joking. In short, it is dangerous for you to scold anyone and all civil organizations, but it is safe for you to scold the president only. Scolding the government of the Stars and Stripes will not cause trouble. This is why the talk show performances of Star Stripe Nation are always criticizing the president and the government.
It also caused a lot of trouble here because of the statue, just like the racial conflict that occurred in Virginia. The cause was precisely because the statue of Robert Lee was to be overthrown. There are similar statues or monuments in almost all parts of the Star-Spangled Nation, so now the entire Star-Spangled Nation has launched a campaign to demolish and anti-dismantle the public image of Robert Lee.
As for the overthrow of the statue of Robert Lee, this is a complicated problem, which is similar to the image brought by the statue of President Jiang Jian Jiang in China.
Isn't this adding chaos?
In the end, it was so serious that Xiao Peng just wanted to say to them heartbroken: Deserve it!
Xiao Peng followed the guidance of Google Maps and finally found the "LAPOSADA" hotel. This inn-style hotel is very famous on the 66th highway.
They all say that this place is beautiful, but Xiao Peng is here. From the outside, I really don’t think it looks good. It is a small two-story building, but it is full of cars and there is a special charging device for Tesla. Stake, it seems that there is a lot of content inside.
The three of them also wanted to open a room enthusiastically, but they were told that the place was full and they needed to be booked. The front desk suggested several people to live in MOTOL6 in the town. Xiao Peng saw that it was still early, so he simply left this town and continued on his way, leaving Arizona first.
To tell the truth, Xiao Peng is almost driving Arizona crazy, and going to Arizona in the summer is simply self-abuse! Most of the time here belongs to the stove. The temperature here can reach more than 40 degrees during the day, which is simply painful for Xiao Peng. He really wants to leave here now.
Since there is no room, hurry. It's still early anyway. After discussing with the two women, the three set out on the journey again. Finally before dark, I came to a small town called Holbrook, where several white pointed tents attracted Xiao Peng's attention.
"Wigwam Hotel? What the is this?" Xiao Peng asked, pointing to the white tents, "Are we here at Lawyer Sally's house in "Cars 2"?"
"Hahahaha." Alesi laughed after hearing Xiao Peng's words: "I didn't expect you to watch cartoons."
Xiao Peng was speechless: "Is there anything weird in watching cartoons?"
Alessi smiled and nodded: "I begin to understand why you don't know Sasha Gray."
Xiao Peng: "..."
Amisia said: "But you are right about one thing. The tent hotel opened by Lawyer Lisa in "Cars" is indeed based on this hotel. Don't underestimate this hotel. It has a history of 70 to 80 years. Up."
"Let's live here today!" Hearing that Xiao Peng was also interested, he drove the car and took a closer look. Xiao Peng was deeply disappointed at first. Although this tent is in Indian style, it is not made of fabric, but made of concrete and steel. There were fifteen in total. Near the side of the road were the gas station and the office. Xiao Peng parked the car and walked to the office. The so-called office is an old-fashioned wooden house. The decoration inside is quite distinctive. There are various Indian-style decorations hanging on the wall. There is also a piece of petrified wood, which is more than one meter long, on the window table. This is a valuable collection, just put there casually.
But this is not surprising, the Petrified Forest National Park of the Star Stripe Country is here, and it is also the largest petrified forest in the world.
Although Arizona is a barren desert, in ancient times, this was not the case. Scientists believe that in ancient times, there were groups of dinosaurs and a large number of fish in the nearby rivers. What age do these huge petrified woods come from? So here, all kinds of fossils are very common. Although it has been listed as a national protection by the Star-Stripe Nation since 1906, it is forbidden to destroy various fossils here, but it is normal for locals to occasionally engage in fossils. There are many shops in Holbrook that sell them Fossil souvenir shop.
There was a middle-aged white woman sitting in the office. Seeing Xiao Peng and several people coming, she got up and greeted everyone.
"Ms. Eleanor-Lewis, hello." Emilia greeted the woman.
Xiao Peng looked at Emilia in confusion: "Do you know the boss here?"
Emilia explained: "This tent motel was identified as tent motel number six by the Stars and Stripes National Historical Register in 2002. At that time, the motel was closed because of the decline of Route 66. After the death of old Lewis, it was renovated and re-operated by his sons and daughters. I saw a documentary about it a few years ago."
"Beautiful lady, you have a good memory, yes, I am Eleanor Lewis." Eleanor responded with a smile.
"Ms. Lewis, is there a room?" Emilia said politely.
"Of course!" Eleanor looked at the three of Xiao Peng: "Is it a room?"
Xiao Peng is speechless, don't you think people are a bit so?
It seems that people have already taken offense.
Emilia smiled and waved her hand: "We need two rooms."
When Eleanor saw it, she knew she had misunderstood, and explained with a smile: "Well, I actually mean, we have a room with two beds."
Xiao Peng's eyes widened: "You mean there can be two beds in the tent?"
Ms. Lewis explained with a smile: "When you go in, you will find what it means to have a different world. Although it looks like it is a tent, it has air conditioning and everything."
Xiao Peng felt relieved when he heard that there was an air conditioner. He was really afraid that a ceiling fan would spin around in the room like this office. Are Arizonans not afraid of heat?
Xiao Peng took the key and entered the room. Under the tent-shaped exterior, the room was a circular internal space with a TV, air conditioner, toilet and shower. It felt like a small room in Huaxia Rujia. In order to maintain the earliest look here, the furniture in the house is refurbished walnut furniture.
Xiao Peng and others put their luggage in the room, and they didn't even have the mood to go shopping in the town. Xiao Peng was almost dried out when driving along the way. After taking a shower, Xiao Peng threw himself on the bed. Emilia played with Alesi for a while, and when she came back she saw Xiao Peng sitting cross-legged on the bed holding his gramophone.
"My dear, what are you doing." Emilia asked.
Xiao Peng replied: "I have committed an obsessive-compulsive disorder. I heard it rattle and rattle along the way, but it annoys me to death. I want to fix it."
In fact, Xiao Peng could use his mind to go in and see what parts had fallen, but after repairing the wheel for Neil, Xiao Peng's desire to do things was unprecedentedly high. It is the most fulfilling feeling to fix things by himself.
Emilia said: "Well, my dear, then I will take a shower first, and you will fix it slowly first."
Xiao Peng waved his hand at Emilia, and he began to study how to disassemble the phonograph. In fact, this phonograph is not difficult to disassemble, it can be done with a flat-blade screwdriver, but after all, this phonograph has been around for too long, and the screws have long been rusty. This made Xiao Peng more difficult, and he began to disassemble it carefully. .
After Emilia came out of the shower, she saw Xiao Peng holding a photo and a small box in a daze.
"My dear, what are you looking at?" Emilia asked.
Xiao Peng showed what was in his hand to Emilia: "Isn't there any parts missing in this phonograph, there are these two things inside. Now, look at this photo, how do I think these people are familiar?"
After hearing Xiao Peng's words, Emilia took the photo. This is an old black and white photo. The photo shows a group photo of two white men and a yellow woman. The background is the Kremlin.
Emilia recognized it: "Isn't this Gorky? I know him out of these three people, and the other two don't."
"Gorky?" Xiao Peng questioned.
"Don't you know? Great writer." Emilia pointed to Xiao Peng at the big beard in the photo.
Xiao Peng nodded: "Of course I know, the one who wrote "Haiyan"? We were all asked to memorize that article when we were in school."
Emilia puzzled: "Why memorize it?"
Xiao Peng shook his head: "How do I know, maybe I hope we will all be poets in the future."
After talking, Xiao Peng stared at the photo and looked at the woman inside, always familiar.
Where have you seen it?
