Chapter 213: Mongolian Style (Seeking Flowers)
When the car drove into the grassland, it was fresh and quiet, and it was refreshing to be in the beautiful grassland.
As the car gradually deepened, the scenery was different from the outside, and there was no longer the current house construction here, but white yurts gradually appeared. Crystal clear rivers can also be seen everywhere, and the grass at the water's edge is rippling, which can be described as abundant and beautiful.
Zhang Taiping and Sun Qingshan sat in front of the car, and Sun Qingshan introduced the scenery and humanities of this place to Zhang Taiping while driving.
Zhao Qingsi sat in the back canopy, and there were two men and two women and four young people sitting together.
"Sister, where are you going?" After getting into the car, regardless of men and women, the four of them frequently secretly stayed on Zhao Qingsi's body, but they didn't dare to face it, and after a while, a girl mustered up the courage to ask.
Zhao Qingsi smiled, the shallow smile on the beam turned away the momentum of rejecting people thousands of miles away, and the four of them suddenly felt that the atmosphere in the car was light: "We are going to go to Hulunbuir Lake to have a look." ”
"Hulun Lake and Bear Lake." The girl said happily, "We are also going to play there, see the lake there, and see the beautiful scenery 'sun and rain' there." ”
"Is Hulunbuir two lakes?" Zhao Qingsi and Zhang Taiping are similar, they are people who are not prepared, and they have not checked the customs and human geography here in detail before.
The girl was a little strange: "Sister doesn't know?" ”
Zhao Qingsi smiled and shook his head.
"There's a beautiful legend here." The girl still told Zhao Qingsi the legend of Hulunbuir Lake, "According to legend, a long, long time ago, there was a couple in a brave Mongolian tribe on the grassland, the girl can sing and dance, and she is both talented and beautiful, called Hulun; The boy is very powerful, can ride and shoot, and is called Bell. In order to save the grassland, they pursued love, and fought bravely with the demons on the grassland, the girls turned into lakes and drowned the demons, and the boys bravely threw themselves into the lake to find the women, so they both turned into Hulun and Bell Lakes that have nourished the grassland for generations. ”
This is to link the two lakes and beautiful love, Zhao Qingsi smiled and nodded. When she calmed down, although she was like a woman of poetry and books strolling in her words, she gave people a feeling that she could not be played with from a distance, but after laughing, her temperament changed suddenly, giving people the feeling of a spring breeze.
Sun Qingshan, who was in front of the car, introduced to Zhang Taiping: "If you want to visit Hulunbuir Lake, one day is definitely not enough, you need to find a place to settle there, and on the bank of the Molgrad River, there is a "Golden Horde Mongolian Tribe", which is the best place for people to settle down, and you can enjoy various customs and activities in Mongolia. ”
Zhang Taiping didn't have a specific place to go in his heart, and the fairy Sun Qingshan recommended it, so it must not be wrong, so he said: "Then go there." ”
Sun Qingshan turned his head slightly and shouted to the back car, "Where are the guests going?" Speaking is much more polite than Zhang Taiping and the two.
It was the girl who could speak who replied: "We are going to go to Hulunbuir Lake with this sister." ”
Hearing such words, Sun Qingshan stopped asking, so he went the same way, and pulled to the bank of the Molgrad River together, the "Golden Horde Mongol Tribe".
Along the way, you can see the clear rivers crisscrossing the country, you can see the small lakes dotted on the grassland like pearls, you can see the yurts that look like white spots from a distance, you can see the famous grazing herds driving a large herd of cattle and sheep, and even see people riding horses galloping, heroic and outstanding. It wasn't until noon that we arrived at our destination.
This is a well-known natural pasture at home and abroad, where many northern nomads have been nomadic in history, growing up and multiplying. Genghis Khan, a generation of Tianjiao, once fought here, and finally occupied the Hulunbuir grassland, where he used the resources and countless brave knights to complete the great cause of unification. The layout of the Golden Horde tribe is the epitome and reproduction of Genghis Khan's tent.
When summer is approaching, herders begin to graze in this place with abundant water and grass, forming a beautiful picture of nomadic tribes as the main body. Blue sky and white clouds, bent rivers, green grass, herds of cattle and sheep, little yurts, curling smoke, Hulunbuir is a rare green pure land and a paradise for living beings in the world.
When Zhang Taiping and the others came, there were already a lot of cars parked here. The full name of this tribe is called the Golden Horde Tourist Tribe of Chenbal Tiger Banner, and it is a major place to visit Mongolian customs and taste Mongolian food.
"Su Yule Hoke." As soon as Zhang Taiping's group of people came over, a Mongolian man came forward to greet Sun Qingshan, and then the two had a mumbling Mongolian conversation, and Zhang Taiping couldn't understand a word.
After finishing speaking, the Mongolian man came over and leaned over to Zhang Taiping and the others with one hand on his chest, leaned over slightly, and said in Chinese with a strange sound: "Welcome to the tribe, my name is Galdi, and I will greet everyone in the future." ”
Zhang Taiping and the others also returned the salute in the same way. Several people followed Gardi into a yurt, and Sun Qingshan also stayed with him.
The Mongolian people have their own set of regulations, and first of all, they sent mare's milk wine, which is also called "dismount wine" here, which is to wash the dust for several people.
At noon, Gardi greeted everyone directly with the most famous "hand-grilled meat" here. At first, everyone was still a little restrained, and they were embarrassed to start directly, but Zhang Taiping and Sun Qingshan didn't have so many worries, and they happily ate the meat with their hands. Zhao Qingsi also threw away her reserve, as if she had returned to the era of the perverse surname in junior high school, and she also reached out to grab the meat boldly, and under her leadership, everyone at the table began to feast on the delicious food on the grassland.
In the afternoon, we visited the festival Ao Bao. Sacrificing Ao Bao is one of the grand sacrificial activities of the Mongolian nation. Usually located on a high mountain or hill, the Ao Bao is piled up with stones to form a conical solid tower, with a long pole inserted at the top, the head of which is tied with animal hair horns and scripture cloth, and on all sides are placed cypress incense padstones; There are also branches planted next to the Ao Bao for whole sheep, mare's milk wine, butter and cheese, etc.
What made several people most excited was the horse racing, horse seting, and horse training performances that started in the afternoon. Change into a mask and follow the crowd of tourists around a meadow to watch the wonderful performance on the field.
First of all, horse racing, each time the three of them ride their own horses on the grass with obstacles, there are all kinds of interesting performances, in fact, their competition is not very good, mainly performances, to show visitors superb equestrianism. The second is the horse race, which requires higher skills than horse racing, not only to have skilled horse skills, but also to have a common mind with their own horses, so that they can let go of their hands to set horses, this activity is the embodiment of real horse skills. Finally, there is a horse taming activity, which was supposed to find a few wild horses to tame, but there are very few modern wild horses, not that you can find them, so this activity has become a performance surname.
After watching these three activities about horses, Gardi also found a horse and asked everyone to sit on it one by one, and he trotted twice to take a photo as a souvenir. It's just that when Zhang Taiping arrived, there was an accident, as soon as Zhang Taiping approached, the horse began to anxiously dig the ground with four hooves, spinning around, saying that he would not let Zhang Taiping get close, as if he was a lion and a tiger. There was no way, Zhang Taiping had to keep a distance, and after Gardi calmed down the horse, he changed a few horses, and finally found an old horse that had no fear of Zhang Taiping. It's just that after Zhang Taiping sat up, the old horse's body was a little shorter, and it was difficult to walk, Zhang Taiping hurriedly turned over and jumped down, if he directly crushed the horse to the ground later, it would be a joke.
There were many people and Mongolians watching from the side, and they were all amazed by Zhang Taiping's figure and weight.
The last old Mongolian said: "It seems that ordinary horses are not suitable for distinguished guests, and only the legendary bloody horses or Pegasus horses or the head horses leading the herd can hold up the distinguished guests." ”
Zhang Taiping had to give up the idea of taking pictures, but he was interested in the old Mongolian people's statement.
Not to mention the sweat and blood, Zhang Taiping asked the old man: "I don't know where to find this Tianma and the head horse?" ”
The old man was also happy to tell Zhang Taiping about these things about horses: "It is said that Tianma lives on the snow Tianchi on the border of the grassland, and it is not sure whether it is really rare, and its rarity is no less than that of a bloody horse." The head horse is on the Hulunbuir grassland, but its whereabouts are uncertain, with a group of wild horses galloping on the inaccessible grassland, only by fate can we meet. The old man was fortunate enough to see it once, and the magnificent scene of ten thousand horses galloping will never be forgotten," said the old man, squinting his eyes and falling into memory.
Zhang Taiping didn't interrupt and waited quietly beside him. After a while, the old man came back to his senses and felt his faux pas, and apologized to Zhang Taiping: "The most expensive guest, I was distracted again just now." ”
Zhang Taiping shook his head and asked, "I don't know where they saw the horses?" ”
"Next to Hulun Lake, I was fishing on Hulun Lake that time, and I saw an unforgettable scene." The old man knew what Zhang Taiping wanted to do, "It was more than ten years ago, and now because there are more people going to Hulunbuir Lake, I have never seen a herd of wild horses again." Maybe you can't see it in the depths of the sparsely populated grasslands. ”
Zhang Taiping was tall and had a rough face, and he looked more like a Mongolian than a Mongolian in a Mongolian robe, and thanked the old man with one arm on his chest.
Then Gardi led everyone into the bag and tasted a variety of local snacks. There are many kinds of dairy products alone: milk tea, dried milk, milk skin, cheese, and fried rice and white melon seeds, which are different from other places.
Then Gardi let everyone rest in the bag, and there was a wonderful program in the evening!
