Chapter 15: Sunrise and Pilgrimage
"Xiujing, what are you doing. ”
In the evening, after dinner, Lin Xi came to the balcony of the suite with a bottle of drink, but happened to see the balcony next to him, Krystal was also sitting there, quietly looking into the distance, as if thinking about something.
Krystal, who heard Lin Xi's voice, glanced sideways, then turned back to look at the building in the center of the city, "We're going there tomorrow." ”
"Well, tomorrow morning we're going there to see the majesty of the day during the day, and then we're going to visit some of the city's landscapes, and then we'll come back in the evening to admire its magnificence at night. Lin Xi leaned on the railing sideways, his eyes looked at the building standing on the red mountain in the distance, not only did the night not plunge it into complete darkness, but because of the light that illuminated it very magnificently.
When Krystal heard Lin Xi's words, his face did not react very excitedly, but became a little darker. At this time, his eyes looked in the direction of the night sky when they came, "Is this journey coming to an end?"
"Well, I've already booked my ticket for the night after tomorrow. ”
Lin Xi saw Krystal's face, and roughly understood why she was like this. So it was only after a long silence that he whispered this answer. Maybe it was to comfort Krystal, Lin Xi also laughed immediately after speaking, "Xiujing, it's enough to play for so long this time." Next time, if you still want to play, you can still come, right?"
"The mood of the first time is different from the mood of the second time. Krystal, who has traveled to many places, knows the mood of travel very well, so even if she understands that this trip is indeed coming to an end, she is still a little sad when she hears Lin Xi really say it.
"There are still many beautiful and interesting places in the world, Xiujing, even if you spend all your time traveling, you can't see the whole world's scenery. Lin Xi's comfort was a bit freak, but it was very correct, "It's good to have seen the treasure." Remembrance and remembrance are sometimes a good situation, aren't they?"
Looking up at the starry sky, the starry sky of the grassland is very spectacular, even if you are in the ancient city at this time, the starry sky is still full of stars. It's a pity that you can't see the grandeur of the Milky Way that some travelers say. Looking at the starry sky, Krystal's dim little face gradually revealed a smile, "Linxi, you said that after returning to Seoul, can we still see such a starry sky?"
"Only you want to. You can see the starry sky everywhere. "Because from this moment on, it has been engraved in your heart forever. The last sentence, I don't know why Lin Xi didn't say it. Although the relationship between the two has heated up dramatically during this journey, and Lin Xi has become closer and closer to Krystal, he still knows very well what to do and what not to do, what can and can't be said.
Proportion, Lin Xi was very precise from the beginning. But as time and relationship progressed step by step, Lin Xi at this time was gradually unsure of his situation, so he didn't dare to say some words. At the same time, a figure appeared in his mind standing beside Krystal. That picture made Lin Xi's heartbeat accelerate sharply, and he came to him with a full sense of incredulity.
"It depends on where and who is watching. Krystal laughed softly, tilting his head sideways to look at Lin Xi on the balcony next to him, his eyes were tender like water.
Although he didn't look directly into Krystal's eyes, Lin Xi could feel the heat. But it was this heat that made Lin Xi's mood even more chaotic, and finally quickly cast his eyes into the distance and looked at it a few times, and said, "It's all about the same, okay." Xiujing: It's not too early, I have to get up early tomorrow to see the sunrise. Then after watching the sunrise and descending from the mountain, you can go directly to see the Potala Palace, the place of pilgrimage, and see the pilgrimage pictures of the residents here, so rest early. ”
After saying that, he hurriedly walked back to the room. Leaving Krystal alone, he sat on the balcony next to him, looking at the already empty balcony, pursed his lips, and snorted coldly, "Hmph, Stinky Forest Creek." The stinky stone is really like a stone in the water, stubborn. ”
Good guys, in less than half a month, Krystal's cultural achievements have risen sharply.
Early the next morning, before dawn, Lin Xi had already gotten up from the bed. Krystal's side was already up because Lin Xi told her last night.
At 6 o'clock in the morning, the two of them set off from where they were staying. At 6 o'clock, the sun was already rising in some mainland areas or Seoul. But this is Tibet, it's Lhasa, and the sun doesn't come out until after 7 o'clock.
Then I drove to the foot of a mountain, and then I climbed carefully without a road. However, this kind of mountaineering journey is very arduous and requires great care. The climb took nearly an hour, and when Lin Xi and Krystal stood at the top of the mountain, the top of the mountains in the distance finally ushered in the first rays of dawn.
Taking advantage of the sunrise, Lin Xi seized the time to adjust the camera a few times, and then helped Krystal take a few photos. The background is naturally the ancient city of Lhasa and the Potala Palace at the foot of the mountain, and after taking a lot of photos, the two also chose a very good position to sit down and rest and wait for the sunrise. The wind was chilling, and it was a little cold.
As time went on, some of the tourists who came to watch the sunrise gradually climbed to the top of the mountain. At this time, the sunset in the distance finally appeared, this was not the first time Lin Xi and Krystal had seen the sunrise, but the excitement in their hearts was indescribable. Because this time, the sunrise is probably the sunrise they watched from the highest place. Because at this time, their altitude is above 4000.
The sunshine wakes up the sleeping people, and the busy day has officially arrived. At this time, several vultures also flew out from afar, but the vultures that could soar high in the sky on weekdays were gliding under the feet of Lin Xi and Krystal at this time, and the sense of satisfaction and excitement made Krystal feel that this climb had been completed.
Don't say I don't know, just at the moment when the two of them were still sighing at the vulture. The sun in the distance finally climbed the top of the mountain, and suddenly appeared in the sky, the cold gradually subsided, and the glow also hit Lin Xi and Krystal's faces at this time, the warmth that seemed untouchable on weekdays seemed to be able to become a substance at this time, touching the glow, Lin Xi and Krystal's faces were full of satisfied and happy smiles.
The sun has risen, and the view of the sunrise has been watched. Next, Lin Xi and Krystal simply took a group photo with the glow again, recording this journey.
After watching the sunrise, Lin Xi and Krystal also slowly walked down the mountain, but this time the way down the mountain was with many more companions.
After going down the mountain, it is natural to taste the special breakfast here, and I have to say that some of the delicacies here are delicious, because even Lin Xi, a guy with a food spirit and cleanliness, is very satisfied.
After breakfast, it was close to nine o'clock. Lin Xi and Krystal, who had walked out of their residence again, had just walked to the avenue when they saw a pilgrim not far away.
It was a middle-aged man, wearing the national costumes of the Tibetan area, and the style was a little shabby. But they still bowed three steps and one bow, prostrate on the ground, and there was a resolute and persistent look on their swarthy faces, and neither sweat nor the scorching sun above their heads could affect their pace and spiritual progress.
Looking at the road behind it, a long main road continued to the invisible range, and then turned his head sideways to look in the direction of progress, the beautiful and majestic Potala Palace was particularly brilliant and even spectacular against the background of the blue sky and white clouds.
"Let's go. "A soft sigh, this time an exclamation.
When he went to the Potala Palace, Lin Xi felt for the first time that his steps were so heavy and slow. Krystal behind him seemed to be shocked by the scene just now, and he followed behind Lin Xi without asking why, such a pilgrimage method and that atmosphere should be borderless.
Along the way, Lynch and Krystal gradually encountered more and more devout pilgrims. In groups of three or five, or alone, with old men with rickety backs, and women with bronze skin, in the most ancient, simplest, and most sacred way, with a solemn face and a resolute expression, in the embracing of the body and the earth again and again, three steps and one pilgrimage close to the holy place.
There is no tidal traffic here, there is no bustling street scene, but it is like a magnet for believers from all over the world to come here to measure this magical and sacred land with their bodies, and listen to the voice of the Buddha in their hearts with their pure and ethereal hearts.
Three steps and one prostration, for these pilgrims, no one can know how many steps they have walked and how many thresholds they have crossed, because it is impossible to calculate at all.
The closer he got to the Potala Palace, the deeper Lin Xi's expectations for it became.
When Lin Xi and Krystal came to the front of the Potala Palace, they saw many pious people quietly kowtowing to the Potala Palace on the top of you. Some old men holding prayer wheels in their hands, silently reciting the six-character mantra, hurriedly walked along the streets paved with bluestone.
Standing beside these pilgrims, Lin Xi and Krystal seemed to feel their kind of piety, so pure, so pure. (To be continued.) )
