"Come out and see, it's time to Lake Baikal." Xiao Liu shouted excitedly in the corridor, and I immediately got out of the box and looked out the window, wow! Where is this lake, it is simply the sea, only to see the smoke and waves of the vast water and sky, the waves gently lap the shore, from time to time fly a few seagulls, look at the front of the train, the lake shore is surrounded by mountains, the primeval forest is lush and dense, the lake and mountains reflect each other, the scenery is beautiful. Maybe it's not strange to see it, the fat brother Lao Chen didn't come out, and sat in the box and continued to drink tea with Bayir and them.

"Xiao Liu, Brother Peng is early!" At this time, Meizi came from another carriage, "Meizi, morning!" I said hello to Meizi, "Miss, what time is it, it's still early?" Xiao Liu teased Meizi, "I didn't sleep well last night, and I got up late." Meizi explained, "I heard that your carriage came up last night to rob the robbers?" Meizi asked Xiao Liu, "This news spread so fast?" You know that, Miss. Xiao Liu then teased Meizi, "Go, where is the little fart boy cool and staying, it's not serious." Meizi slapped Xiao Liu, "Hurry up and talk about what's going on." So Xiao Liu told Meizi what happened in the middle of the night again, "Wow! It's so scary, I really let you meet, God bless fortunately, it's nothing, I used to sit on the international train and really encountered a knock in the middle of the night, but I didn't open the door, knocked a few times and left. Meizi clutched her chest and said, "Huh! How are there so many packages? Who is getting off? Meizi pointed to a few big bags piled up in the corridor and asked, "Just now, a Buryats came to receive the goods, and the fat brother and the Zhejiang brother next door just sold the goods, they got off the train when they arrived at the station after a while, and now they are drinking tea with the fat brother and them in the box." I pointed to the box and said to Meizi, "That's good, we also had an aunt over there just now to buy goods, but I didn't buy so much, I sold two fur coats and ten leather jackets." "That's not bad, do you have a lot of people in the carriage to sell goods?" I asked Meizi, Meizi replied to me: "Not much, plus I seem to be just three or four people, there are a few boxes are Russians, although they have big bags but do not sell goods, our car is a Russian car, so China is less Russian than the Russian master, China generally takes 3/4 international trains, that car is a Chinese car, that car is called lively, the station along the way is crowded, Russians buy goods as if they don't spend money to grab it, this car is a little worse, I didn't buy a ticket for that train to buy a ticket for this train, It seems that the fat brother is more familiar with this line. "Yes, yes, look at the fat brother, they are so familiar with the flight attendant, they are all familiar with the road." Xiao Liu followed Meizi's words, and Meizi pointed out the window to me and said, "You guys enjoy the beautiful scenery of Lake Baikal, I'll go say hello to the fat brother and them, and I want to see the Buryats." Xiao Liu opened the door of the box: "Miss, please come in." ”

Meizi and the fat brother Lao Chen Bayer greeted each other one by one, and then gave a thumbs up to the fat brother, "Fat brother is mighty." The fat brother just heard us chatting outside, and knew what Meizi meant, so he smiled: "Little meaning, it's not the first time I've met it." Meizi chatted with Bayir in fluent Russian, and Bayil looked at his watch and said to Meizi: "There is still an hour to go until the station where I got off the train, and I will tell you about the beautiful Baikal Lake, and please help me translate." Meizi nodded and said, "Hala Shao, we will all be very interested." ”

Baikal comes from the Mongolian word for "rich lake" and is named after the abundance of fish in the lake. According to the legend of our Buryats, Baikal is called "Baikal Daray", which means "natural sea", because the shape of the lake is like the moon, so we also call it the moon sea, you see it is the sea. As he spoke, Bayil pointed to Lake Baikal outside the window, "Four hundred years ago, our ancestors lived on this land, and our ancestors were the real masters of this land, and later it became Russian territory when it was occupied by the tsar." Lake Baikal is the largest and deepest freshwater lake in the world, it is said that the fresh water of Lake Baikal is enough for humans to drink for a hundred years, and it is also the purest water source in the world. There are hundreds of species of fish living in Lake Baikal, many of which are unique to Baikal, salmon and sturgeon are famous all over the world, and I will buy you the most famous smoked fish here, which are freshly caught and smoked by the lake, and with Baikal beer, it is the most delicious delicacy in the world. Speaking of this, Bayil also deliberately made a swallowing motion, which made several of us drool, and Bayil laughed when he saw us like this, and then he said proudly: "Baikal is a pearl given to us by God, and there are many beautiful legends about Baikal, let me tell you one of the most famous, according to legend, a long time ago, there lived a warrior named Baikal, and there was a beautiful only daughter Angara under his knees. Baikal was very fond of his daughter and was very strict. One day, when the seagulls flew to Angara and told Angara that a young man named Yenisei was very industrious and brave, and Angara's love for him was spontaneous, but Baikal refused to allow it, and Angara had to quietly leave while his father was asleep. When Baikal woke up, he couldn't catch up, so he threw a boulder, thinking that he would block his daughter's way, but her daughter was far away and threw herself into the arms of the Yenisei. The boulder has been standing in the middle of the lake ever since. This boulder does have, it is called the Holy Stone by our locals, and there are the Angara and Yenisei rivers, and this holy stone is located at the outlet of the lake flowing north into the Angara River. At this point, Bayil poured a glass of wine for each of us, and he and his companion dipped their fingers in the wine and flicked it three times in the air (Buryats mean reverence for God and earth): "Friends, please raise your glasses and give a glass to our ancestors and to the beautiful Baikal Lake." "Cheers to your wonderful story, too." Mei Zi held up her glass and said, "Cheers, for the beautiful Baikal, for friendship!" "We drained the glass together.

"It's almost time to get to Baikal station, you should hurry up and move your things to the door of the bus, the car will stop for a few minutes, you don't get off the bus to sell goods, but there are very few people coming to buy goods at this station." Lena came over to inform us and we carried a couple of big bags to the door of the car. It didn't take long for the car to stop at a small station by the lake, and there was really no crowd of people like Chita Black pressing to buy goods at the station, but there was a large group of women carrying baskets to peddle smoked fish from Lake Baikal, and as soon as they saw the bus stop, they immediately surrounded it, and we quickly helped Bayil to get a few big bags off the bus, and Bayil looked at a few copies of the smoked fish sold at the door, and after choosing one, he said to the aunt who sold the smoked fish: "Take ten of them, and they should be freshly smoked and hot, and I will tie the account with you." ”

The car started slowly, we waved goodbye to Bayil, goodbye to the beautiful Baikal, goodbye to the warm and simple Buryats, maybe one day I will come here as a guest.
