Chapter 159: Yunnan Tour (I)

In the early morning of 13 July, Geng Zhiyuan and Su Qing rushed to Ningcheng Airport early and boarded a flight to Kunming. More than three hours later, the plane landed at Kunming's Wujiaba Airport. After getting their checked luggage, the two walked out of the airport hall together and found the beautiful local female tour guide who was in charge of receiving them.

The tour group that Geng Zhiyuan and Su Qing participated in was a ground group composed of individual passengers from various travel agencies in Ningcheng, and the passengers departed from Ningcheng and were reorganized into groups after being gathered by the ground travel agencies at Kunming Airport.

The unit price of the six-day tour from Ningcheng to Yunnan is more than 3,600 yuan, and the two people spent a total of more than 7,000 yuan, most of which is used for air tickets.

In the afternoon of the same day, the tour guide Xiao Luo took a group of 20 people to the Kunming Expo Park. The Expo Park covers a huge area, and after the tour guide led them to take a rough tour of the landmark buildings on the central axis, they let the group members move freely separately.

As a student of an art academy, Su Qing yearns for Vienna, the capital of music. The first choice to go to the scenic spot is the international scenic spot, Geng Zhiyuan took her left and right, and finally found the Austrian exhibition area. In front of the statue of Strauss, Su Qing posed and took many precious group photos.

"Zhiyuan, I want to ask you for something. After taking a photo under the big windmill in the Dutch exhibition area, Su Qing suddenly begged him.

Geng Zhiyuan looked around, admired the exotic scenery nearby, and said casually: "Say, what's the matter?"

Su Qing bit her lip and said, "When we get married and travel, can you take me to the real Vienna for a while?"

Geng Zhiyuan turned his head to look at his girlfriend and smiled: "Okay, why not?"

Su Qing didn't expect her boyfriend to agree so quickly, and happily threw herself into his arms and said happily: "Thank you, Zhiyuan! ”

"Isn't it just going to Vienna, why are you so excited?" Geng Zhiyuan hugged her and comforted: "If we don't have money, let's talk about Vienna, we won't even be able to come to Kunming." But since we have the money, is it hard to go to Vienna? As long as we don't go to the moon, we can go anywhere in the world. ”

"I don't want to go to the moon, I just want to go to Vienna. Su Qing shrank into his arms and said quietly.

"Okay, let's go to Vienna. Geng Zhiyuan imagined: "If the time is right, let's get to the golden hall and listen to the New Year's concert." ”

"New Year's concert!?" Su Qing's eyes lit up, and then he dimmed and said, "I don't have high requirements, just go to Vienna." It doesn't matter if you listen to the New Year's concert or not. ”

"Okay! I promise to let you go to Vienna, okay?" Geng Zhiyuan coaxed and deceived, and finally coaxed his girlfriend to be happy.

After a night's rest in Kunming, the tourists got up early the next day for breakfast, and then took the bus to the famous Stone Forest Scenic Area.

In the Stone Forest Scenic Area, there are strange shapes, rocky and large and small stones, and all of them are natural carvings, and it is easy to get lost without knowing the direction when you walk into it. Enjoying the strange rocks and strange scenery all the way, Geng Zhiyuan sighed: "The magic of nature is breathtaking, and I think the scenery of the stone forest is better than the man-made landscape of the Expo Park." ”

Su Qing pouted and said: "That's the Expo Park you went to first, if you went to the Stone Forest yesterday, maybe you think the Expo Park is good today." ”

Geng Zhiyuan was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "You have a certain truth, there is a way to see the newcomer laugh, and not the old person crying." It is human nature to like the new and hate the old, and it is beyond reproach. ”

Su Qing saw him pick up Wen Yanwen, and said angrily: "According to what you say, if you meet a beautiful woman again, will you also get tired of me?"

Geng Zhiyuan laughed and said, "Well, it's possible." ”

Although Su Qing knew that Geng Zhiyuan was talking like this in order to deliberately tease her, there was still jealousy and hatred in her ears when she heard it, so she pounced on it and punched it. Geng Zhiyuan's body is much more flexible than her, dodging left and right, and his fists missed, making Su Qing tired and panting, but he still didn't even touch his clothes.

"You know how to bully me!" Su Qing was annoyed and ashamed, squatting on the ground and hugging her head and crying. When Geng Zhiyuan was thinking about how to coax, the beautiful tour guide Xiao Luo smiled and said: "Don't cry, Ashima can wear the unique ethnic clothes of the Yi nationality to take pictures, how can you take pictures if you cry like this?"

"Ashima?" As soon as she heard that there was a national costume to wear, Su Qing instantly turned sad to joy: "Where?"

Xiao Luo pointed to the front and said, "The stone forest sign has passed in front." ”

Geng Zhiyuan smiled and pulled Su Qing up and said, "Let's go, my little Ashima." ”

Su Qing took the opportunity to pinch him and said, "I'll let you hide?" ”

Young couples' emotions change quickly, one second they are still tense, and the next second they are already very good with you and me. Xiao Luo looked at the happy appearance of the two of them holding hands, and secretly felt funny. The twenty-person ground group she is responsible for has six young couples and four old couples, and the pairing is very sweet, which is much easier to manage than a single group.

Among the six young couples, except for Geng Zhiyuan and Su Qing, the remaining five couples are all newlyweds who came out to travel, and four of them are also from Ningcheng. Su Qing has a lively temperament, she is beautiful and sweet-mouthed, and she got acquainted with the other five young couples in just one day, and she and Geng Zhiyuan became the leaders of the six couples.

Geng Zhiyuan suddenly had an idea when he took pictures of his girlfriend, and beckoned the other five Ashima and said, "Come, you six Ashima take a group photo together." ”

Young people like to join in the fun, six Ashima of different heights and appearances stand in a row, and the shutter is pressed to freeze into a rare group of beautiful photos.

After lunch, the tour guide took them to a complex of ethnic buildings, Geng Zhiyuan thought it was also a scenic spot, and after getting off the bus, he knew that it was a large shopping plaza at this time.

The tour guide's income comes from the rebates of the group's shopping, and Xiao Luo also has to earn money to support his family, so this move is understandable. Besides, Xiao Luo made it clear to them that shopping is voluntary and not forced.

Su Qing is a girl, so she naturally likes to go shopping. She dragged Geng Zhiyuan along the shop to take a closer look, and successively bought a pair of Ashima and Brother Ahei, a monkey cloth doll and a cowhide painting of the peacock princess.

The most common in Yunnan are jade and jade shops, which offer everything from cheap C goods to expensive A goods. Su Qing didn't like extravagant gold and jade, nor did he like expensive gold and jade jewelry, which saved Geng Zhiyuan a lot of money.

However, Su Qing took a fancy to a tiger-shaped jade waist card, which is said to have the effect of protecting the gods and cowardice. At her insistence, Geng Zhiyuan spent more than 3,000 yuan to buy it and wear it on his belt as his talisman.

When he got on the bus again, Geng Zhiyuan noticed that Xiao Luo was smiling and bright, it seemed that the group members spent a lot of money on shopping this afternoon, and the income brought to her was also considerable.

After dinner, Xiao Luo put them on the train to Dali, and after arriving in Dali, they were received by a local guide.

The travel agency ordered a hard sleeper for them, and lying on the familiar sleeper seemed to return to the old days of business trips. Geng Zhiyuan looked at Su Qing opposite, and his girlfriend seemed to recall the difficult road to study, and the two of them had a good heart, and stretched out their hands to each other and held them tightly. Su Qing smiled at him, and suddenly he was coquettish and beautiful.

In the early morning of the third day, the train arrived at Dali Station, Geng Zhiyuan and others reminded each other to get off the train, and met the local tour guide at the exit of the station. The ground tour guide is also a young and beautiful girl, who introduces herself as Yang and is still a Bai girl.

After a brief breakfast, Xiao Yang took them to the pier and boarded a white double-decker luxury cruise ship. Standing on the side of the boat and looking out from the railing, the Cangshan Mountain in the distance is shrouded in mist, and the Erhai Lake at your feet is extremely clear, and you can even vaguely see the lush aquatic plants at the bottom of the lake from the boat.

In anticipation of everyone, the boat finally set sail and slowly sailed towards the depths of the lake.

Boating on the lake, the scenery is very pleasant, and there is a bit of romantic atmosphere. The tour guide invited them to taste the unique three-course tea of the Bai nationality in Dali in the cabin. The so-called three teas, one tea bitter, two tea sweet, and three tea light, symbolize the triple realm of human life. Only when you are young and go through the hardships of youth for entrepreneurship can you win the sweetness of middle age and the lightness of old age.

Tasting three courses of tea, Geng Zhiyuan couldn't help but recall a sentence he had read: Life is like a cup of tea, plain is its true color, bitterness is its process, and fragrance is its gift.

The tea is drunk in the mouth, bitter and sweet, just like life after the vicissitudes of life, and the aftertaste is always more interesting than smooth sailing.

At the foot of the towering Cangshan Mountain stands the three towers of Chongsheng Temple, and their beautiful shadows are in the geography textbooks of junior high school. Now that I have got what I wanted, I realized that the saying that seeing the scenery is not as good as listening to the scenery is not unreasonable.

The three towers standing majestically in the picture are nothing more than the real scene in reality, far less majestic than in the photo.

Back on the boat, they turned around a few more small islands in the Erhai Lake, and then they got off the boat and went to lunch. After lunch, the tour guide took them to the famous scenic spot Butterfly Spring in Dali.

The Butterfly Spring is known for the movie "Five Golden Flowers", and it is said that thousands of butterflies come from all over the world and flutter around the spring every year during the butterfly festival on the 15th day of the fourth lunar month.

However, the butterfly spring that Geng Zhiyuan saw was nothing more than a pool of clear water enclosed by the pool, and there was an outlet under the pool, and clear spring water flowed out of the outlet. Legend has it that washing your hands and face with the water from the spring will bring good luck, so tourists gather around and take turns washing their hands to get some joy.

Coming out of the Butterfly Spring, the tour guide took them to the ancient city of Dali for a turn. The ancient city where the Dali Duan family is located in Mr. Jin's novel has long been destroyed, and the only existing ancient city south gate was originally built in the early years of the Ming Dynasty, and it was also demolished after liberation, and it was rebuilt in the early eighties, so it is a young monument.

After dinner, the tour guide arranged the accommodation and suggested that the group members could play in the ancient city at night and go to the foreigner street and other scenic spots.

Finally ended the day's trip, physically and mentally exhausted after days of traveling, Geng Zhiyuan and Su Qing decided to stay in the room to rest, save up energy, and prepare energy for tomorrow's trip to Lijiang.
