Chapter 61: The Yellow Sparrow Follows

Out of the county, a group of people along the 109 National Highway all the way south, through Naqu to the beautiful and picturesque Namco, at a glance can not see the edge of the lake has waves like the sea, the low blue sky and white clouds are reflected on the clear lake surface, people have an illusion, can not distinguish where is the sky and where is the earth.

Not far from the shore of the lake are herds of grazing sheep and yaks, and there are many believers shaking prayer wheels and pilgrims performing the five-body ritual, and they circle the lake day after day and year after year, saying that it will bring health to their families and drive away evil. Luo Daxi came to the lake, looked at the beautiful and magnificent lake, took a sip of the clear lake water, swallowed it and raised his head to meditate, Zhou Yuanhang thought that he was doing some kind of ritual, and he also learned from him, and after a while, he didn't feel anything and asked, "What are you doing?" Feel the scent of holiness? Luo Daxi still closed his eyes, and only said in a half-loud voice: "Why is this lake water salty, it is so cold that my entire esophagus is frozen." ”

As for why Namtso is a saltwater lake, some say that it is because the sea water receded in the past, and some say that it was formed by the geological structure of Nianqing Tangla Mountain, because the lake water is formed after the snow melts on the iceberg, so the water temperature is very low. The local Tibetans believe that water is the source of life, so the lakes are holy, and all the water comes from the snow-capped mountains, and of course the snow-capped mountains are sacred.

There is a tent set up by the Tibetans grazing by the lake, and from the inside you can see the outside through the fine holes, just like the black shade net in the city, and after careful questioning, I know that this is the hair of the yak weaving, although it can pass through the light, but it can play a good role in keeping warm in this Tibetan area where the temperature difference changes drastically, Li Hao really can't believe that these thick blankets can withstand the cold.

A few people did not stay long, continued to hurry, through the majestic and continuous Nianqing Tanggula Mountains, and then went south I don't know how far to finally arrived at Lsa, come here, immediately have the feeling of entering the city again, all kinds of people shuttle through the streets and alleys, especially in the square in front of the Potala Palace, the flow of people is more dense, people from all over the world in the north and south of the world have come to see its honor, the Potala Palace built near the mountain is majestic and solemn, you can feel the changes of history when you see it, feel the greatness of Tibetan civilization, The building built by the ruler with an unknown amount of money and manpower has now become history in the eyes of ordinary people, as long as you are willing to spend a little money, you can enter and visit it, and I believe that if Songtsen Gampo had known about this day, he would never have built this palace back then.

A few people rested for a day in Lsa, and the next day the interest was very high, this time out for so long and did not encounter any danger, it was simply a self-driving trip, especially Luo Daxi, which was equivalent to fulfilling one of his wishes, the most hilarious on the road was him, he would not think about it in a few days, there would be danger, there was no danger in his eyes at all, and he never thought about tomorrow, just hand over these troublesome things to Li Hao.

Li Hao did stop all the troublesome things, every time he went to a town, he would turn on the transmitter to search for a signal, but every time it was empty, it was impossible to find it, it stands to reason that someone should have arrived, but until he arrived at Lsa, he still didn't receive the signal, didn't they take the Qinghai-Tibet line?

The next day, everyone continued to hurry, and Li Hao told Zhou Yuanhang to keep the transmitter on, keep an eye on the monitor at any time, and it was very likely that he could run into the convoy of the old man who was going through the mountain at any time. Zhou Yuanhang's mental state in the past few days is quite good, he has no altitude sickness and is far away from home for the first time, all the way is full of novelties, and he doesn't think about what he will face next.

It is about 300 kilometers away from Lsa to Rihaze, but the road is full of dangers, and it takes nearly eight hours to reach Rihaze and arrive at the meeting point of eavesdropping.

Rihe is located in the southwest of Tibet, is the confluence of the Brahmaputra River and the Chu River, since ancient times there is a fertile manor, is the second largest city in Tibet after Lsa, is the political, religious and cultural center of the post-Tibetan period, many ** living Buddhas are stationed in Xi, and the sunshine time is even longer than Lsa. With plenty of sunshine and a mild climate, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery at any time of the year. Rihe is not only full of mysterious religious temples, but also beautiful primeval forests, and sacred mountains, sacred lakes, and grasslands. Whether it is the beauty of nature and the famous temples and ancient temples, they attract pilgrims and tourists from all over the world, and Li Hao and his entourage can come to such a place.

But everyone's heart fight was not put on the tour, but first went around the city, but there was still no signal, Li Hao began to beat the drum in his heart, was his decision wrong?

Just when Li Hao hesitated, Zhou Yuanhang suddenly slapped his thigh and said, "I know where they are going!" Several people, including the little wolf, looked at Zhou Yuanhang in surprise, and couldn't understand what he meant for a while, Zhou Yuanhang didn't pay attention to these people, but continued: "Ali, it's Ali, that's right, their final destination is Ali, we made a mistake, we made a mistake, this time it's right, it's absolutely right." ”

Luo Daxi patted Zhou Yuanhang on the back of the car and said, "Wait a minute, what did I say about the fat man?" What's wrong and what's right, brother, I can't turn my head. ”

Zhou Yuanhang happily turned around and looked at Li Hao and Luo Daxi and said: "The place we got wrong is that Sun Bin and they went to later was not Hoh Xili, but Ali, I took the word Ali as Ke Li, and naturally thought that they went to Hoh Xili later, but no, just now I found this place Ali when I was looking at the map, and I suddenly remembered a previous archaeological discovery." ”

Li Hao asked, "Archaeological discoveries?" ”

"That's right, I don't know exactly when, but I vaguely remember that a group of burial tombs was also found there, and the style of the burial place is definitely not owned by X Zang itself. Plus our route this time. Zhou Yuanhang said and spread out the map on the car, pointed to their current location and said, "The position we are in now is here, and the day is here." And the whole Tibetan area except for Lsa and Nyingchi, the relatively large cities are here, and when they converge here, then the place they want to go to is definitely not the area east of Rihaze, but only to the west, along the Himalayan mountain range, and the only place that can be worthy of these people's attack is Ali. Zhou Yuanhang said his analysis, Li Hao and Qiangzi nodded when they heard it, Luo Daxi was expressionless, as if it had nothing to do with him at all, he didn't listen to Zhou Yuanhang's words, but what he was thinking about now was the Himalayas that Zhou Yuanhang said just now, so he had already thought of climbing Mount Everest, the world's highest peak.

Li Hao thought about it for a while, and thought of a question, which could just be circumstantial evidence for the fat man's theory: "What you said makes sense, Ali is the center of the original Tibet and belongs to the Zhangzhung Kingdom, the Zhangzhung Kingdom has strong national strength, brave soldiers, and dominates the entire Tibetan area. It is the birthplace of Bon, more than 2,000 years ago there was no Indian Buddhism in X-Tibet, everyone believes in Bon, and the leader of Bon is also the real king of Tibet, and later in the seventh century Songtsen Gampo in the park in order to dominate X-Tibet, not only assassinated the king of the Zhangzhung Kingdom, but also introduced Indian Buddhism, combined with the absorption of some beliefs and rituals of Bon to form the unique Tibetan Buddhism now, in any case, Ali is a secret place, maybe the goal of the old man is really Ali, more than 2,000 years ago can have his own religion, And become the king of Tibet, I really dare not say whether there is the intervention of the Central Plains civilization in this?"

"Okay, next stop, Ali, let's go." Luo Daxi shouted excitedly next to him, what he wanted was to finish the matter quickly and go to the mountain in order.

Li Hao ignored him, Zhou Yuanhang didn't know Luo Daxi, but said seriously: "No, you still have to wait here, what if the other party doesn't go to Ali?" After all, Ali is just my speculation. ”

Qiangzi also said on the side: "I think the fat man is right, we will wait for him here for a few days, we can't just leave." Li Hao and Zhou Yuanhang both nodded in agreement, and then the three of them looked at Luo Daxi, and when they saw him, they smiled and said, "Everyone, just let me not exist." After speaking, Luo Daxi hugged the little wolf and shrank back, never making a sound again.

A few people waited for the signal in Riheze, and waited for three days, and walked around the whole Rihe a few times Luo Daxi really couldn't help it, clamoring to go mountaineering, just when everyone had no idea, Zhou Yuanhang shouted violently: "There is a signal, there is a signal!" ”

Li Hao jumped on the bed and looked at the signal on the display, a flickering white dot was approaching them, Zhou Yuanhang said: "It should be only more than twenty kilometers away from us, and the mountain height here is an obstacle to the signal." ”

Li Hao and the others saw the flashing signal, and a smile appeared on their faces, finally waiting, although there was only one, it proved that their actions did not deviate from the direction.

When everyone was happy, Qiangzi stared at the car's reflector and said, "It's a pity that it's not only the old people who came to the mountain, but also friends who followed us all the way." ”

Everyone heard Qiangzi say this, all looked back at the back of the car, they now park at the foot of a mountain called Tashillunbu Temple, which belongs to the largest temple in the local area, since the fourth ** was canonized, here has become the place where the past dynasties ** are stationed, in the eyes of the Tibetans, Tashillunbu Temple is comparable to the Potala Palace, so there are a lot of people coming and going, and it is impossible to see who is following them.

Qiangzi did not turn around, stared at the mirror and said: "Behind the left side of our car, there is a girl in a fur coat with Hada, the car parked next to her has been following us since Lsa, and when we arrived, I didn't go to visit, just wandered around like us, there were two people in the car, by no means good, they rarely came down, and they would never be tourists." ”

Luo Daxi turned around and saw the car according to what Qiangzi said, and said to Li Hao: "Wait, I'll ask." After speaking, he pushed open the door and was about to get out of the car, but was grabbed by Li Hao and asked: "What are you going to do, don't pay attention to it first, the most important thing for us at present is to keep an eye on the old people who are going through the mountain, they should be there in the next two days, and try not to make any more extraneous branches." If the sun is out, then dare to follow and talk about it. ”
