Chapter 8: A Few Days Ago
The last rays of light between heaven and earth fell silent.
The Lasa River also dimmed, leaving only the sporadic flickering of the stars and the moon.
The holy city by the river, also on this pillar of heaven, is deep, and its light and splendor are no more.
Zhou Yi asked for a single room in the inn so that he could do some things, such as entering and exiting the space.
Instead of packing, he put everything into the space, leaving only a few necessities and things that need to be carried with him.
There was a change in front of me, the cramped room disappeared in front of me, and the first thing that escaped into my nose was the extremely clean air - even the pure land of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau was far from such pure air.
The warm breath made Zhou Yi tremble, as before, he closed his eyes, took a few deep breaths, and after a long time, he exhaled a breath of turbid air and slowly opened his eyes.
Bishu Qionghua is the meaning it should be; The bees flying all over the sky have been alienated more than twice as big as the original, and the whole body is golden yellow, with a bit of clarity and transparency, it is simply a natural elf! Thousands of flowers and trees, on a branch, there are not yet open flower bones, there are blooming to the extreme blooming flowers, there are green fruits, more ripe fresh fruits, rich floral fragrance, faint fruit fragrance, clear grass and wood fragrance, to create a piece of natural wonder.
A few rabbits, a few sheep, a few cows, and a few birds have become the best embellishment and vitality of this static landscape.
The clear fog came out from the blue spring, slowly enveloping the whole world, and every time at this time, all the animals were excited, swallowing the clouds and spitting out the fog; The trees also seem to come to life, the branches and leaves are spreading, dancing, and jumping, and the fresh fruits and flowers that bloom on the branches have become the most wonderful gestation in the world, and they are the wonders of life!
The flowers and bones, in this piece of clear mist, visible to the naked eye, bloomed, and danced out of a gorgeous movement in the dance of the bees.
Zhou Yi was a little dissatisfied.
All the vitality and vitality, all the life and greenery, are gathered in a small piece in the center of the whole land, and outside, there is a large area of hundreds of acres of dry and wilted land, there is no clamor of life in full bloom, there is no peace and emotion of the beginning of life, everything is lifeless, compared with the middle piece of land, it is really an eyesore.
It's not that Zhou Yi is lazy and doesn't plant something, it's just that this space has expanded too suddenly and too surprised, and on this plateau, the scarce species can't let him add too much color to this land.
Time goes back a few days ago.
When Zhou Yi first came out of the "Feilai-Temple", he tasted the snow-top coffee given by Meili Snow Mountain, and Zhou Yi continued to move forward.
The road ahead is not easy to walk, all the way down steeply, followed by a slightly calm ups and downs - under the cave, high sharp stones, hanging overhead, next to a golden river, the water is surging, there is no trace of life, it is really "goose feathers can not float, reed flowers sink at the bottom!" If a person falls, there is little need to think about the consequences.
On the other side of the river, there is a yellow-brown ** soil mountain, I don't know if it is soil erosion or other reasons, anyway, on the mountain wall that rises hundreds of kilometers high, it is all reddish-brown and yellow-brown, and there is hardly a little bit of green, a little bit of vitality and the breath of life, and the same as the river, lifeless.
Zhou Yi looked up along the straight earthen wall, his head raised high, his eyes moved up little by little, and finally, he saw the place where the light flowed, saw the blue sky, saw a trance of the sun, and saw the green covered by the mountaintop, like a giant with naked red muscles, wearing a hat made of bright green grass on his headโall of a sudden, amiable and interesting.
Zhou Yi finally breathed a sigh of relief.
He didn't dare to stay under the hanging rock for too long, so he picked up his speed and rode all the way.
A car slowed down beside Zhou Yi, and a bald face wearing a gold necklace full of fat was revealed, and asked with a smile: "Friend, how far are you going to ride this day!" โ
Zhou Yi thought that if he said that he rode two or three hundred kilometers a day, this person would not believe it, so he followed the distance of other riders and said, "More than 100 kilometers." โ
The middle-aged man with a fat head and big ears thought it was incredible. He thought, what is the concept of riding more than 100 kilometers a day?
As soon as he thought about it, his big head began to swing, and with the sound of a thick gold chain, he said with a smile: "Can you ride a bicycle so far?" I've only driven so far in a day......" Although he was smiling, he didn't believe it underneath the smile.
As soon as he finished speaking, he stepped on the accelerator, and a sudden puff of light smoke came out, and the car drove off proudly.
"More than a hundred kilometers, really far?" Zhou Yi listened to what the middle-aged man said, and he really felt that it was far away, but then he thought about it, according to the speed of the slower point, ten kilometers per hour, he could ride a hundred kilometers in ten hours, but if the road conditions are a little better, the speed is faster, and it is normal to walk in seven or eight hours - thinking about it, it is really not far - but why does this person refuse to believe it?
Continuing on, it seems that all the downhills are finished on the road ahead, and all the way up the mountain, up the cliffs, from one mountain fold to another, through and through the light and dark......
The sun was getting stronger and stronger, and it was two o'clock in the afternoon, when it was the most sunny.
Zhou Yi wore a headscarf on his head, a scarf on his face, long sleeves and pants, blocking all the light out.
Don't look at it as summer, on this plateau, the sun is so scorching, shining on the back of the hot panic, but all the way up, the mountain wind is getting colder and colder, the back is hot, the cold wind is paved in front, the sweat has not flowed down, it is blown clean by the cold wind!
Zhou Yi finally saw the top of the maroon mountain, and saw the straw hat on the top shining brightly under the sun.
I saw the homes and pastures on the top of the mountain.
At the same time, on the top of the hill, on a raised rooftop in front of a cliff, a small town fell from the sky and landed on it.
Salt-well, a strange place name, is salt produced here? Zhou Yi didn't know if he had produced before, but he walked through the streets, but he didn't see the place where the salt was produced, but he just felt the gusts of wind, blowing the leaves loudly!
A middle-aged man with a fat head and big ears was holding a big bowl, standing on the side of the road and pulling, and when he saw Zhou Yi riding over, he couldn't help but be surprised, his chopsticks trembled, and his face fell to the ground.
"Friend, it's fast...... Come over for a bowl of noodles? โ
"I've eaten - one more walk." Zhou Yi said.
Looking at it from afar, above the zenith, a small town, shining brightly, is simply a miracle descending from the sky. But when I really entered the town, I found that it was a simple street, and most of it was filled with hostels and hotels that received tourists, and I couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
He wasn't going to stay longer.
As we continued to move forward, the road became steeper and straighter, spiraling up the mountain, and the roadside became more and more deserted, with only a few Tibetan houses, or extremely simple wooden houses.
The sun was sinking faster and faster, and Zhou Yi chased it, but it seemed that he would never be able to catch up......
