0449 Top of the Snowy Mountains
Kunlun Mountain, also known as Kunlun Xu, China's first sacred mountain, has been known as the ancestor of ten thousand mountains and the ancestor of immortal mountains since ancient times.
Tang Ding plans to walk the Kunlun Mountains in this month to see if he can find some traces left by his parents.
However, after all, so many years have passed, even if there are traces, who can remember the events of almost thirty years?
The legendary Queen Mother of the West, who lives on the top of Kunlun.
Since it is the top of Kunlun, it should refer to the highest peak, and the highest peak of Kunlun Mountain is Gonger Peak, with an altitude of 7,700 meters.
Tangding transferred trains from Korla to Ucha County in Kizilsu Kirgiz. This Gonger Peak is located in Wucha County.
He prepared some local baked naan as dry food, and in addition, Tang Ding also brought a small pot, salt, lighter, single sleeping bag, and a tent, which was probably the biggest piece of equipment.
However, compared with the equipment of professional mountaineers, Tang Ding can be regarded as a light car.
You don't need to bring too much fresh water, because there are snow-capped mountains on the mountains, and the melting snow water of the snow-capped mountains moistens the entire mountain range, so there is basically no shortage of water.
Tang Ding only needs to bring some emergency fresh water.
With these ready, Don Ding began to climb.
On the first day, Tang Ding walked very fast, and the step gang tread bucket under his feet was used for mountaineering, which was ingenious and labor-saving.
In the mountains, there are all kinds of wild animals, Tibetan antelope, rock sheep, rhinos, as well as brown bears, wolves and other fierce beasts, these can still be seen below the snow line, once on the snow line, there is no food for the growth of these animals, and the animals are basically extinct.
On the first day, Tang Ding climbed nearly two kilometers to the snow line, and he planned to stay here for one night in the evening.
I found a relatively flat place and set up a tent. Tang Ding went out to hunt a rock sheep, and picked up some dead branches along the way to start a fire, and made a good fire, Tang Ding began to skin the sheep, sprinkle salt and other condiments, and roast it on the fire.
Roasted until the nourishing oil, golden and attractive, Tang Ding gulped the meat, Tang Ding knew that this delicacy could only be eaten now, and when he got to the snow mountain, even if there were animals to hunt, he could not find a branch to ignite the fire.
But even so, Don Ding still kept two roasted leg of mutton. For this meal, Tang Ding ate two legs of mutton, as well as a small half of the sheep's body, and the most of the sheep's body is his breakfast tomorrow.
After eating a full meal, even if you don't have to exercise, you feel a lot warmer.
After eating enough the next day, Tang Ding began to climb the snow-capped mountain.
The snow-capped mountains are much more difficult to climb than without snow, and it took Tang Ding four days to reach the summit of Gonger Peak.
The top of this mountain is empty, and all you can see is snow. The place is not small, and the wind is very strong.
Raise your eyes to look around, but you can't see the mountains at a glance, because the clouds and mist are shrouded, as if you are in a fairyland.
If this is really the place where the Queen Mother of the West lives, it is in line with the characteristics of fairyland.
In fact, Tang Ding also knew that there must be nothing here, but he always hoped for it, hoping for a miracle. I hope to see a piece of Qionglou Yuyu after reaching the top of the mountain, and see a song and dance of warblers surrounded by buildings.
Is this supposed to be the case with the legendary Queen Mother of the West?
Tang Ding fantasized about this scene in his mind, but after thinking about it carefully, the scene in his mind was from the CCTV version of "Journey to the West".
Tang Ding set up a tent on the top of Gonger Peak and slept for the night.
Tang Ding wants to see if he lives on the top of Kunlun this night, can his parents give him a dream and tell him their direction?
Perhaps, Tang Ding hopes that a miracle can appear on the top of this mountain, and the scene he imagined can appear in front of him.
However, after sleeping and getting up, the wind is still there, the mountains are still there, and Qionglou Yuyu is still a dream.
Tang Ding ate a frozen Bangbang hard baked naan in the snow water, and began to pack up the sleeping bag, tent, and go down the mountain.
After descending the mountain, Tang Ding turned to climb another peak.
Under the snow line, Tang Ding will catch a game to quench his cravings.
In Tang Ding's eyes, there is no protection of animals, and he is not a pedantic animal protectionist. In Tang Ding's understanding, this world is a society full of the jungle, and those who are engaged in politics have no ability, and they will be reduced to prisoners. If you don't have the ability to do business, you will go bankrupt. If you don't have the ability, it's not uncommon to be eaten alive by life.
If someone tells Tang Ding to protect animals and love animals, then Tang Ding will ask: I am going to starve to death, will the animals pity me?
The animal world is a world of the jungle.
In the following half month, Tang Ding climbed six peaks in a row. Every mountain peak is covered with snow, and none of them have their own imaginary Qionglou Yuyu, let alone the legendary Queen Mother of the West.
In the past 20 days, Tang Ding was unkempt, his beard was unkempt, and he looked like a lone traveler.
Although this appearance is getting farther and farther away from the handsome boy, it is more in line with the image of a tough guy in the western region, and he is a lot more heroic.
In the past 20 days, when Tang Ding was climbing the mountain, he also had time to sort out the process of looking for his parents, but the more he thought about it, the more confused he became, and he didn't know where to start looking for it.
Tang Ding remembered what his father's master, that is, his master, told him, and the master said that if he understood the "Seven Techniques of Yin Fu of the Benjing", it was possible to know the whereabouts of his parents.
However, Tang Ding is also familiar with the "Seven Techniques of Yin Fu in this Sutra", although he can't talk about it, but he has a considerable understanding of the physiognomy, feng shui, and vertical and horizontal techniques in it, but Tang Ding didn't get much news about his parents from it. Except for the formation inside that was a bit broad and profound, and Tang Ding couldn't use all of them, the other Tang Ding didn't feel too much difficulty.
And what the master said is that you can only know the whereabouts of your parents after you have learned everything, but in fact, you really already know the whereabouts of your parents, isn't it Kunlun Mountain, where the Queen Mother of the West is located?
But how do you want to find them? Will you tell yourself in this book "The Seven Techniques of Yin Fu"?
It's okay on the road, Tang Ding will also silently experience the "Seven Techniques of the Yin Fu of the Benjing", thinking about the physiognomy, feng shui, and the formations inside.
The physiognomy inside can know the blessings and misfortunes, the feng shui in it can be used to the extreme to change the life and transfer, and the formation inside can be used to the extreme to change the heavens and the earth.
However, these are what Tang Ding needs most, and what Tang Ding needs most is that after physiognomy, feng shui, and formations are integrated, he can deduce the way of heaven and change his life against the sky.
At that time, I could change my parents' lives against the sky.
However, changing one's life against the sky is not only the highest level of physiognomy, but also requires Taoist cultivation to the extreme.
But even a person like my father, who can cultivate the primordial spirit, can't change my mother's life against the sky, can I really do it?
Maybe I really should devote myself to meditating on the Seven Techniques of the Yin Fu of the Benjing, but will I be able to cultivate to the extreme in my lifetime? Even if I have cultivated to the extreme, are my parents still alive? If my parents are gone, what is the use of cultivating the Tao and physiognomy to the extreme?
Tang Ding took a bite of the leg of mutton in his hand, and suddenly heard the sound of "pop, pop" in the distance.
