Chapter 246, Ye Sang

The view became wider.

The river meandered, and the road was on this side of the river, and Ye Kai and the others drove on this road to the wetlands, and on the right was a large forest, and the fragrance of unknown wildflowers came from the trees.

On the other side of the river, there is also a road to the wetlands, but this is a railway.

The old-fashioned tin train shouted Kuangci Kuangci's horn, and smoke wafted out of the train's chimney.

This kind of train is rarely seen in China, but I didn't expect to see it in an island country, and you can open the windows around you unscrupulously by taking such a train.

Sometimes it's to make a deal with the vendors at the train station, selling snacks or something. But here, the biggest benefit of opening the windows is that you can breathe in the pure fresh air here.

The train is slow, just enough to experience the beauty of the national park on a long journey.

Ye Kai remembered that there was a similar railway line in China.

Hokkaido is one of the four major islands of the island nation, but accounts for only five percent of the country's total population, and is known for its nature and wildlife.

After following the island for a long time, the river was hidden in the surrounding woods and was out of sight.

On the road, you can see the broken ice formed by the rainwater, which makes a clicking sound when it is crushed by the car, and the ice on the edge of the road cannot be crushed by the car.

It looks thick.

The surrounding trees have turned bald in such a cold weather, leaving bare, extremely tall trunks, and some of the canopies are covered with snow, but this is summer.

Does it snow a lot?

Forget the seasons, there's a magical atmosphere to it.

Ye Kai felt like he was traveling through the world of Narnia.

Ami Kojima's car is parked in an open area in the middle of the forest, and there is a house here, and the architectural style of the house is not Japanese, but European, a forest hut often seen in American dramas.

There are some tools for daily use outside the house and two cars are parked right inside the yard.

When he got out of the car, he saw the snow on the roof, and remembered the snow on the canopy of the trees he saw on the road before, so he asked, "Does it snow often here?"

Ami Kojima probably didn't expect Ye Kai to ask this.

"Yes, the weather here is like this, there is snow all year round, and there are only two seasons, winter and summer, and the summer is very short. ”

"Is it summer or winter?"

"Now summer is taking over from winter, there was a light snow the other day, and the air is just right. Ami Kojima took a few steps into the room, "This is where I work." ”

In fact, it is no different from a home, let alone work, and there is no problem in living here for the rest of your life.

If Ye Kai is ready to find a place to live permanently one day, the picture he wants to see at that time will be no different from here, but it is best to have better weather.

Spring, summer, autumn and winter are the most important, in spring you can see the grass and trees send out green shoots, in summer you can listen to the birds and cicadas chirping, in autumn you can see the red leaves falling, and in winter you can see the snow covering the branches.

Summer cicadas and winter snow are all excellent scenery.

There is a bridge not far away, and under the bridge is a stream, or are there two lakes, and the place where the two lakes are connected is where the bridge is, because it is the narrowest.

Like an hourglass.

"I look around. ”

Kojima Ami nodded, originally invited Ye Kai to come over to play, naturally he would not restrict Ye Kai's actions, but he still reminded: "This is a wetland swamp, there are more wild animals, please pay more attention." ”

"It's okay. Ye Kai said.

He is not afraid of wild animals, but afraid of insects such as leeches, mosquitoes, and spiders, these animals have no brains, and Ye Kai's plug-in does not work for them.

It's best not to play any role, Ye Kai didn't dare to imagine the picture of a large group of mosquitoes surrounding him.

Ant-Man or something is just something that only exists in movies, Ye Kai doesn't want to be an Ant-Man, as for 'Mosquito Man'...... , which is even more terrifying.

Ye Kai walked towards the bridge, and Ami Kojima's voice came from behind him: "Ye San, do you have anything you can't eat? I'm going to make dinner!"

Turning around, Ye Kai said loudly: "No!"

He is a person who can eat African snacks, and the food of the island country is better than the food of Africa, right? After coming to the island country for a day, the food he eats is very suitable for the taste of Ye Kai.

The wind was strong by the bridge, and Ye Kai pulled his collar.

There are many trees here, most of which are cherry blossom trees, which are hardy and suitable for planting in Hokkaido, but the leaves bloomed a few months late, and I didn't see the cherry blossoms in full bloom.

The two waterholes here are not lakes and are shallow.

Some grass emerged from the water, most of them were no more than fifty centimeters, and in the distance were some birds, to be precise, cranes, which were the targets that Ye Kai wanted to see on this trip.

Right here?

Ye Kai thought that he had to go to the deep mountains and old forests to see the red-crowned cranes, but he didn't expect that there were so many red-crowned cranes in front of the door of the small island Yami, and they stepped on the water and foraged around gracefully.

Why did people in ancient China have so many fantasies about red-crowned cranes, and even associated this bird with immortals?

It is because of this elegant posture of the bird.

The body of a bird has always had little to do with straightness, and it is always the buttocks that are raised high behind the tail, such as an ostrich. Or no neck, like a sparrow.

But when the red-crowned crane stands upright, it feels upright.

The head is held high like a proud person, and the look in his sharp eyes is comparable to that of a human being, shining with wisdom.

Most of their bodies are white, with black tail feathers and neck in some places, and a small patch above the head that is red, which is where the name of the red-crowned crane comes from.

In Western countries, the name of the red-crowned crane is Grusjaponensis.

This word translated into Chinese means island crane.

In China, the red-crowned crane is a kind of top totem, the officials of the Ming and Qing dynasties wore the official tattoo of 'birds and beasts', among which the birds are the red-crowned cranes, and the status is only under the royal dragon and phoenix.

When the West named this bird, China was still implementing a policy of closing the country to the outside world, and Westerners could only know Huaxia from Guangzhou and the island country from Nagasaki.

Red-crowned cranes migrate south from northeastern China and do not pass through southern China, but use Kyushu and Honshu as their winter places in the island countries. As a result, Westerners can only see this animal through the window of the island nation.

It was named "Island Crane".

I have to say that this is a very regrettable thing, this is the Chinese 'crane' but the most widely circulated name in the West, but it has nothing to do with China.

Ye Kai groped up and down for a while, only to find that the mobile phone and camera were all in the car, so he hurriedly turned back to find the camera.

Ami Kojima came out with a basin to pour water, and when she saw Ye Kai's hurried figure, she asked suspiciously, "Ye Sang, what's wrong?"

"There are a lot of red-crowned cranes over there, I'll go get the camera......"

"Searching for the Dead...... I was thrilled to see these birds for the first time. Ye Sang is really the same person as me, but don't worry, it's best to shoot tomorrow morning. ”

Ami Kojima has lived here for a long time, and her understanding of red-crowned cranes is definitely stronger than Ye Kai's.

She said that the morning is the best time to shoot, Ye Kai believes.

But it doesn't affect me at all to take a few photos today, if you don't use it then, then save it, anyway, photography is a photographer's game alone.

Just play the game and have fun.
