North American Passengers
by Liu Qun
About This Novel
On a hot summer day in 2016, after a 14-hour flight with slight hypoxia, I was surrounded by the pungent smell of coffee, beer, food, the smell of sweaty feet, and the smell of "ouch" thrown to the sky by my neighbor after eating beef brisket. , I arrived in Washington, entered the United States as a "good citizen" identified by a police dog, and began my 9,387-kilometer journey across North America, where I attended two universities, Berkeley and Harvard, for four consecutive summers. I wrote down the interesting, optimistic and warm people I met along the way, as well as the cities and wilderness I walked through. In addition to tracing the trajectories of some celebrities, I met more ordinary people who were either embarrassing or hilarious. They included policemen, captains, jailers, professors, sex workers, Chinese, liars, landlords, shop owners, homosexuals, rich people, homeless people, new immigrants, and prisoners. Everyone in this land has unsatisfactory life, but also has a bright life.

I found that comparing people to Mo Lv is somewhat similar. After all, some people are just like Mo Lv, trapping themselves in a small place. Not willing to go out, only to find out after going out that the outside world is not what I imagined.
Maybe in Mo Donkey's eyes, the mill may be his heaven to him. The biggest thing in Mo Donkey's mind is the mill, so when he mustered up the courage to go see the sea, he found that the sea was far beyond his imagination. That's why he was like this!
Maybe it's because Mo Donkey has grown up in a mill since he was a child, and his understanding of living things can only be compared with mills. That's why he keeps asking the wild donkey, "Is it half as big as my mill?" However, the ocean and the mill are not comparable to each other.
