It is said to be riding around the lake, in fact, it takes more than 130 kilometers to go down around the lake in Erhai Lake, and if you really want to ride around the lake, it will take at least two days. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
The so-called cycling around the lake that Ye Wei shouted was just to ride along the Erhai Lake and enjoy the beautiful scenery along the Erhai Lake.
There are just a few mountain bikes in the inn, and there is actually a road bike that Lin Feng loves, when he was a child, he was very envious of the classmates in the class who had this kind of curved handlebar, and felt that it was cool to lie down and ride the bike!
He didn't hesitate to choose this blue Giant road bike, and Ye Weiyu picked a yellow Giant mountain bike.
The sun on the plateau was strong, Ye Weiyu smeared sunscreen, and forced Lin Feng to also wipe a layer on his face and neck.
The two put on sunglasses and hats and set off in high spirits.
The two came out of Shuanglang and rode slowly south along the east shore of Erhai Lake.
Their destination is the Little Putuo attraction 18 km away. This section of the road can be said to be the most beautiful place on the east coast of Erhai Lake, especially when the weather is so windy and sunny, there are still a large number of water birds inhabiting in Xiaoputuo, which is the best place for bird watching.
Cycling is another on the road.
Riding is not like driving, there is no mechanical and metal barrier, people and the earth through the wheels, intimately connected together, stepping on the bicycle, with the speed of not missing the scenery, to feel the wind resistance and sunshine, the distance will be infinitely spread, wonderful will appear in every turn, uphill or the top of the mountain you are exhausted.
When riding, every inch of the road surface, undulating slope, will be reflected to your body, at the moment of pedaling, feel the thrill of conquering the road with your strength, especially after rushing up a slope, galloping down the slope, is no less than any exercise of pleasure!
Another pleasure of cycling is that you can discover a lot from time to time, and you will inadvertently ignore the beautiful scenery on the roadside in the past.
Therefore, it is often said that riding is not about the destination, but about the scenery along the way and the mood of seeing the scenery.
In particular, when there is someone riding with you, maybe you are the most beautiful scenery in each other's eyes.
Ye Weiyu rode a bicycle by herself when she was still in middle school, and after she went to college, Lin Feng took her on the second-hand mountain bike she bought on the black market outside the school. At this moment, he and Lin Feng are one by one, facing the breeze blowing from Erhai Lake, and they are excited to compete with Lin Feng.
As a result, after only sprinting for a while, my tired legs were sore,
I had to ride side by side with Lin Feng and Lin Feng, chatting and talking.
Lin Feng remembered a paragraph about bicycles that he had seen in his previous life, and said to Ye Wei: "Ye Zi, let me tell you a romantic sentence about bicycles." One day, the back wheel fell in love with the front wheel, but knew that he would never be with her, so he kissed every inch of the ground she rolled on. ā
Ye Wei pondered carefully, but felt a little stupid.
"This story is so sad......."
"It's okay, at least they're always together!" Lin Feng said with relief.
"Lin Feng, do you know when I liked you?" Ye Weiyu was silent for a while, and suddenly asked a question that Lin Feng hadn't expected.
"......, when?" Lin Feng thought about it seriously, only to find that it seemed that the two had never talked about this topic before, he really didn't know when Ye Weiyu was attracted to him, the two of them were more like good friends, and they naturally came together.
"In the first semester of my freshman year, not long after I first entered the school, didn't I just pass eleven? On the night of the eleventh, Shujie and I passed by the small square in front of the three canteens, and happened to see you and Zhang Xuan speeding past on bicycles. At that time, both of you had long hair and wore black t-shirts, which was very handsome! At that time, I was a little unhappy because I had just arrived at school and was homesick and had the 11th holiday, and when I saw your free and flying appearance, I suddenly felt that college was also a good ....... ā
"Since then, I have often seen you on a mountain bike on campus, and although I didn't know you at the time, I already remember you!" Ye Weiyu recalled with some obsession, and her face showed a strange radiance.
Lin Feng secretly screamed ashamed, in the past and present lives combined, for 20 years, he had never heard Ye Weiyu mention such a paragraph.
He stabilized his mind and said with a smile: "Okay, Ye Zi, it turns out that you have already coveted me, no wonder you agreed immediately as soon as I confessed, didn't you have to wait at that time?" ā
Ye Weiyu glared at him angrily: "What do you still say, the two of us were already inseparable from each other at that time, you never confessed, and the girlfriends in our dormitory advised me to be careful, thinking that you were a playboy, but fortunately you confessed later." Otherwise, I wouldn't have the face to see anyone. ā
Lin Feng's heart was slightly gloomy, recalling that time back then, he was stuck in missing Wen Xin and couldn't reply, and he and Ye Weiyu unconsciously came to an intimate point, struggling with the difficulty of how to choose.
Suddenly realized that this emotion was wrong, and hurriedly shook his head to change his thoughts, and said with a smile: "Speaking of which, Ye Zi, I also coveted you early, at that time, I had just entered the freshman party, and the hula dance of your College of Humanities surprised me. Then you were presiding over the freshman debate, and when I looked at your picture on the billboard, I recognized you as my favorite person in the dance that day. Unexpectedly, I actually followed Zhang Xuan's friendship activities in the Department of Architecture and met you. This is fate! ā
When the two talked about the past of falling in love in college, they didn't feel a little warmth and tenderness in their hearts.
For a section of uphill, Lin Feng pulled Ye Weiyu's handlebar with one hand and helped her rush uphill together.
A turn in front of me, suddenly opened, the vast blue Erhai Lake is like a huge blue mirror, and the clear blue sky, the sea and the sky are the same color, and the line meets in the distance.
"It's so beautiful!" Ye Weiyu stopped the car, took out her camera, and took pictures of the beautiful scenery in front of her.
The scenery along the east shore of Erhai Lake is beautiful, and there are many viewing platforms, rocks and steps that extend into the sea along the way.
Ye Weiyu excitedly took off her shoes and socks, walked into the lake barefoot, felt the cool lake water, and naughtily raised her feet to splash water on Lin Feng who helped her take pictures, and had a lot of fun.
Playing and riding all the way, I came to the small Putuo scenic spot in Digging Color Town.
In the Erhai Lake, Xiaoputuo can be said to be a "pocket island", with a circumference of only more than 200 meters, and is composed of limestone.
Its shape resembles a round seal, hence the name "sea seal". Legend has it that there are many dragons in Erhai Lake, often setting off storms and waves, and this reef is the big seal that Guanyin Bodhisattva used to suppress the dragon.
The small Putuo shore is relatively close, there is a Guanyin Pavilion on it, it looks like a magnified microscopic bonsai from a distance, the white wall and black tiles, the construction is elegant, the solitary sea surface hangs, and the majestic momentum of the Cangshan and Erhai Sea in front of you complement each other.
In fact, the best time to visit Little Putuo should be early in the morning. At this time, the fog on the sea surface curls, and the small Putuo appears and disappears from time to time, just like the Moon Palace, and when you board the small Putuo, you can see the fog surging around, like a white light veil. This is one of the eight views of Erhai Lake, "Lanai Putuo".
However, for Lin Feng and Ye Weiyu, the most anticipated and surprising thing is the seagulls here.
Because of the special ecological environment of the Erhai Plateau wetland, from November every year, the red-headed gulls flying from Siberia gather in Xiaoputuo, and flocks of birds fly on the shore of Erhai Lake, chasing and chirping with the blue water. According to incomplete statistics, there are hundreds to tens of thousands of red-headed gulls that fly to Xiaoputuo every year, and there is a tendency to increase year by year.
Although it is the beginning of July, which is not the winter season for migratory birds, because of the perennial custom of feeding seagulls by the fishermen of Haiyin Village next to Xiaoputuo, there are nearly 2,000 seagulls that no longer migrate and live here. So when Lin Feng and Ye Weiyu came to Xiaoputuo, the scene they saw was so beautiful that Ye Weiyu couldn't help but exclaim.
Countless white red-headed gulls frolic in the water not far from the shore, from time to time there are seagulls spread their wings and fly, drawing a graceful arc on the sea surface, like the elves in the Erhai Lake, they are not afraid of people, some stand on the reef exposed to the water, and look at the people on the shore elegantly.
Lin Feng bought Ye Weiyu some bird food and shrimp to feed the seagulls, only to see Ye Weiyu stretch out his hand to spill the food, countless seagulls flew up, flying all over the sky, as if dancing with Ye Weiyu's people and birds.
Ye Weiyu laughed in surprise: "Lin Feng, Lin Feng, look at it!" They're so cute! ā
Lin Feng squatted there with a camera, capturing wonderful moments: "Yezi, go back and look at the camera!" ā
After feeding the seagulls for a while, the two stood side by side on the shore, looking at the small bonsai-like Putuo Island in the blue sky and blue sea, and the seagulls flying.
