When it was almost dark, a huge bonfire lit up in the grassland.

But at this time, there are only a small number of Inner Mongolians and a large number of tourists, which shows that this event is still being managed. Probably the owner of this horse farm.

Let these tourists be happy and go back to publicize, maybe more people will come next year.

Ye Kai wanted to participate, but he couldn't.

Follow Battle to a hotel in the town for dinner to celebrate the victory. But what Ye Kai didn't expect was that when he entered the private room, he didn't see a few people he knew.

The large round table that can seat 20 people is full, and the ingredients on the table are obviously not cheap, such as expensive abalone and sea cucumber, lobster and sea crab in Inner Mongolia......

In the middle of the table is a large plate covered with tin foil, which may be shaped like a roast suckling pig.

Seeing Battle bring Ye Kai in, everyone hurriedly welcomed Ye Kai, in Battle's circle, Ye Kai was really a new face that he had never met.

But it's not unfamiliar, many people have seen Ye Kai's figure on the racetrack.

With a horse randomly selected in the horse farm to run the third, such riding strength is enough to gain respect in Inner Mongolia, even if people who have not watched Ye Kai's competition, after hearing his friend's explanation, they are also in awe of Ye Kai.

It's nothing to be thin, and if someone rides a horse better than you, you should be respected.

Ye Kai's own affinity also made everyone accept him quickly, and at this time, two waiters came up with the last dish, and after setting it on the table, one person poured white wine on the dish.

The long lighter was pointed into the dish, and a flash of forty or fifty centimeters appeared on the dish.

"Please take your time. The waiter, speaking standard Mandarin, exited the private room.

The glass is filled with wine first.

Battle stood and spoke for a while, and then everyone shouted, and they all drained the wine from their glasses.

Ye Kai was about to drink when he was stopped by Battle, and said: "Ye Kai, you can drink as much as you want, you can drink as much as you like when we toast, you don't have to drink it all." ”

It's a shame to be like that......

However, Ye Kai still nodded and drank a small half cup.

This wine is not as strong as the wine in the mainland, so there will be no heartburn in a small half glass after a sip, but it is still not very comfortable, after all, it is not a low-alcohol beer.

The dish wrapped in tin foil in the middle of the table is indeed roast suckling pig.

It's a bit cruel to eat like this.

But it tastes really good.

It's so fragrant.

Ye Kai has no taboos about what to eat, and the creed of protecting wild animals is to protect the environment, save and cherish wild animals, not to stop eating meat from now on.

As for the group of teammates Ye Kai met in Africa, almost every meal had meat.

With Ye Kai, they sometimes use Chinese when chatting, such as asking Ye Kai about some things in the mainland or Ye Kai's work, riding horses for several years......

Ye Kai casually fictitiously said: "It's been about ten years." ”

If Ye Kai really insisted that it hadn't been long since he learned to ride a horse, maybe not a year later, then the atmosphere at this wine table would not be as warm as it is now.

Sometimes white lies can also pull into the relationship.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of food, a pair of orchestras with musical instruments came in from outside the door.

The first time Ye Kai came here, Battle explained to Ye Kai: "After the consumption here reaches a certain point, the boss will invite the band to perform music. ”

Someone smiled and said to the band: "We are all people who live nearby, and the little brother over there is from the mainland, and it is the first time to come to our Mongolian ......."

The people in the band looked at Ye Kai one after another, smiled and nodded.

Someone took out the hata and wine from the basket with the musical instrument and walked towards Ye Kai, is this going to give me the hata? This is the first time.

I have traveled so far in Tibetan areas and made some friends, but I have never encountered anything like this.

"Catch the glass first. Someone reminded Ye Kai.

Ye Kai took the wine glass.

The appearance of the wine glass is a black bowl, about the size of a bowl cake bowl, Ye Kai dragged the bottom of the bowl with the five fingers of his left hand, and the clear wine inside reflected the bright lamp on the ceiling and Ye Kai's face.

The members of the band put Hada on Ye Kai's neck.

When he raised his head, Ye Kai saw that the band began to slowly offer Hada to the other people here. Because I'm a guest from afar, I'll give myself first, right?

The boys' hatas are blue, and the girls' hatas are white, which distinguishes between genders.

As soon as you drink the wine, put down the glass and continue eating.

And the band began to sing Mongolian music, Ye Kai didn't understand the content of the lyrics, but the melody of the song and the emotions contained in it were very simple, and he didn't need to understand the lyrics.

The band has a horse-head fiddle, a hoomai, and of course, a hoomai cannot be called an instrument, but a unique vocal technique. There are also two musical instruments that Ye Kai does not recognize.

Take Humai out of the song alone, and no one will be able to understand Humai if you listen to it for the first time.

But after integrating Humai into the music, Ye Kai can feel the power brought by Humai from the music, as if all kinds of sounds in nature are gathered together.

The things of the ancients had to think more and discover the beauty of a traditional thing from the obscurity.

For example, Peking Opera, the experience is not to a certain extent, and it is difficult to immerse yourself in listening to a single opera.

The aesthetics of modern society have been deviated by the Internet, and many people, especially the new netizens and children who have increased rapidly in recent years, like some Internet songs.

These traditional things, not even the singers and songs that the previous generation liked in the previous decade, have been regarded as outdated songs.

Therefore, Ye Kai cherished this opportunity to enjoy the performance of Mongolian singers at close range.

After the band sang two songs, at the wine table, a thirty or forty-year-old brother banged on the table with his hand to beat a song, and the band understood in seconds and played a song.

He let out a few rhythmic vocalizations of unknown meaning, and then slowly, almost everyone at the table beat together.

Ye Kai didn't care about eating, and applauded with his hands.

He can't sing.

How can I start singing awkwardly when I don't agree with each other.

When singing, this group of people even terrifyingly divided the high and low voices, like a well-trained choir, but Ye Kai knew that they were definitely not a choir.

At most, it's just a group of friends who often get together.

Although I don't know what to sing, but the song is inexplicably good, what does this mean in Mongolian?

Well, Ye Kai turned into a sincere applause.

It's really nice.

Everyone will know a song, but they won't, and it will be a little embarrassing at this time. But you're just an out-of-town tourist, do you need to know this song?

Maybe they would be surprised if they could sing.

After singing for about two and a half minutes, the song stopped, and Ye Kai applauded and said, "It's good, what is this song called." ”

Someone said: "Folk songs, our local folk songs in Ordos, roughly meaning, the wine glass has been filled with mellow wine, brothers and friends gather together to have a drink." ”

"Here, cheers. ”

Ye Kai involuntarily stood up and drank a glass of wine with them.

The nightmare began.

In Mongolia, guests need to be treated with great honor, and here Ye Kai is their Mongolian guest. The so-called grand treatment is to toast you.

Everyone said that Ye Kai could drink as much as he wanted.

But other people's female friends all took a sip of the wine glass, and Ye Kai was embarrassed to only take a small sip?

The food on the table was eaten at first, and now few people moved their chopsticks into the dishes, holding wine glasses and starting to sing, singing a song alone, and soon it was Ye Kai's turn.

He was dizzy, but there should be no problem with singing, and said: "I can't speak Mongolian, I'll sing a song in Chinese." ”

"It's okay, just sing. ”

"Understand, sing. ”

This song was heard by Ye Kai a long time ago, and its name is also called a toast song.

Everyone quieted down and prepared to listen to Ye Kai sing, and the band also stopped, they didn't know what Ye Kai was going to sing, and Ye Kai didn't tell them.

Knocking on the wine glass with chopsticks, he sang: "The wine is fragrant~ The song is flying, friends, please have a drink, a drink." The victorious October will never be forgotten, and the cup is full of tears of happiness......"

This is not a modern song, and it is likely that this song is older than Ye Kai.

But it's very appropriate to sing this song here, and the style they sing is actually not a modern pop song, but all Inner Mongolian folk songs. Ye Kai's song should also belong to folk songs.

Even if they can't speak Chinese proficiently, they have no problem understanding Ye Kai's singing.

The band also began to play, this song may not have been heard by some young people, but it is still a relatively popular Chinese song in the grassland.

“...... Comfort wine, thick and beautiful. Thousands of cups and thousands of lamps are not drunk......"

Someone applauded and said, "That's a good song." ”

"yes, very professional. ”

"The breath is very good, it is worthy of a man who has been riding a horse for more than ten years, and he sings so beautifully. ”

If someone shoots a Douyin or other short video at this time, it may exceed one million views per minute, after all, Ye Kai has always been a celebrity who is active in other people's Douyin.

What happened to me in XXX, do you look at Ye Kai?

Or take a photo with Ye Kai somewhere.

There were so many mainland tourists during the previous competition, maybe Ye Kai's third-person video of riding a horse has appeared on the short video platform, but it is not necessarily.

But they didn't record it.

Ye Kai sang this song for a long time, and he was also very serious.

Everyone could see that Ye Kai was already drunk, and his standing body was a little crooked, but the breath of singing was not messed up at all.

When Ye Kai finished singing, even the band was a little curious, and asked, "Little brother, what the hell are you doing, singing so well, you can't be a singer, right?"

"Singing is a singer? No, I'm not, I have a Weibo, Weibo says I'm a traveler, a writer, a singer...... But I'm not a singer. ”

Battle said, "Forget it, this little brother is drunk, let's go ahead and let him sleep." ”

Drinking in Mongolia is generally not poured.

When Ye Kai met Battle, he told Ye Kai that the Mongols would not pour wine to guests, as long as they drank the first glass, and then they were free to do so.

Compared with the business wine table, the wine table here is a veritable 'drink pleasure'.

But Mongolians are very fond of toasting, and if there are guests, then at least a glass of wine must be toasted? So how many are more than a dozen people here, and one person toasts a leaf?

Although the wine glass was small, Ye Kai didn't wipe out every glass, but he was still drunk quickly.

It's interesting that Ye Kai is drunk, he won't fall asleep quickly, but will be refreshed for a while. It doesn't go crazy, it's not much like normal.

It's just that the next day I don't have any memory of this time.

For example, this part of the song.

Ye Kai couldn't remember clearly.

late at night

Ye Kai was a little thirsty, sat up from the bed lazily, picked up a pot of tea poured by others on the side of the bed and drank it bitterly, the tea was gurgling and drinking, Ye Kai pursed his lips and looked at the surrounding environment.

Sure enough, I got drunk again.

This is the hotel room, filled with the smell of disinfectant water, and the air conditioner above the TV is blowing warm air, so that the indoor temperature has been around twenty.

Ye Kai picked up the remote control Didi Di Di and lowered the temperature again, covered the quilt and continued to sleep.

He didn't notice that the latest reward in the upper right corner of his gaze had changed from a horse racing reward to another one, and was now slowly fading.

It was what he wanted the most, and the amount of alcohol went up.

At about ten o'clock the next day, someone knocked on the door and woke Ye Kai up.

Brother Battle left in the morning if he still had something to do, and the person in front of him wanted to send Ye Kai back to Jungar Banner, and all of Ye Kai's belongings were in the car, of course, he wanted to go back early.

I called and talked to Big Brother Battle, and got into the car with this person.

There was another bump in the road.

Hikers on the grassland, desert, Qinghai-Tibet line.

In the past two years, there have been fewer and fewer people riding in Tibet, but there have been more and more people on foot, some dragging small cars forward, and some only carrying a bag and holding a selfie stick in the live broadcast.

On the way, Ye Kai also saw that someone couldn't go down, so he sat on the side of the road and hugged the tree and cried bitterly.

Tsk, if you don't want to leave, take the car home.

If you want to continue, put away your tears and continue walking, the more desert you are, the more useless your tears are.

The driver drove very fast, and sent Ye Kai to Jungar Banner in more than an hour, and the car that was parked two days ago was still in its original position, and it was not towed away or ticketed.

This is not a paid parking lot, so Ye Kai does not have to pay parking fees.

Seeing Ye Kai getting into the car, the person who saw Ye Kai said, "Welcome to Ordos next time, friend." ”

"Definitely. ”

Ye Kai also gave him a salute and watched him drive away before returning to his car.

Wrangler's beautiful car interior.

After two days, he finally returned to his nest in Inner Mongolia, Ye Kai felt very calm and comfortable, lowered the window a little, and continued to sleep in the back seat.

I can't say that I got up early today, but I am still a little sleepy, and I will sleep for a while to see the situation and then choose whether to go to Hulunbuir today.

In fact, Ye Kai's imagination of the Hulunbuir prairie has been divided a lot by Ordos, Inner Mongolia is not only Hulunbuir, he has many cities, many tribes with unique traditions.

Each place has a unique story, these stories are not monotonous than the Hulunbuir grassland, in fact, they echo the Hulunbuir grassland, and together write the beautiful legend of Inner Mongolia's thousand-year-old nomadism.
