In October, when, to a Port Arthur. Before, I did not understand very well this little town, just remember the history books say, there was a Sino-Japanese War, Russo-Japanese War battlefield.
A long distance from Dalian to Lushun car down, buying a map. Map with 70% of the text and pictures depicting the Port Arthur is a scenic port city.
We went to the North East Jiguanshan bastion Lookout Russo-Japanese War fort and some other sites. After visiting, down time, only to find a taxi, where very few, mostly chartered; if walking down the mountain, then, it is estimated to be 1 hour or so, and our trip also brings to bear. No alternative but to go along, while hailed. Lucky, 10 minutes after experiencing an empty car. Sit down car, can not help but long Shulekouqi, then the next, and peer discussions with the dialect arrangements.
Suddenly, the car-flying stopped. I said to myself "Ko Deng" in Taiwan, accelerated heartbeat right away. Over, approached this mountain village of Bu Zhao, after Buzhuo shop to see if we have two little girl, wanted to prepare why? My companions on the subject a bit, I saw her eyes hint of panic.
Driver to turn around, with a strong north-east accent, asked: "You two are Japanese?"
I think, probably want to blackmail foreigners Boyd, quickly replied: "No, no, we are Chinese people."
"Really not? Hear you say the words as the Japanese!"
"You see, we say so fluent in Mandarin, how could the Japanese?"
"Mandarin is also very good students. You really are not Japanese students?" Is still very much doubt the driver looked at us.
"Really not, really not!" We quickly took out their identity cards, to prove our "innocence."
The driver leaned, carefully read what was going on.
Car, and finally to continue to move forward.
Opened the driver said to myself: "just listen to you speak, it is similar to Japanese. In our Port Arthur, taxis are not allowed to set out the Japanese, or else something to say to a fine of 2,000 yuan. You are not Japanese, so much the better."
We long to spit the tone, possession of a good identity. And need in this city perhaps.
History has passed, but fortunately, there are a lot of people do not forget history.
