Kanas Lake is a mountain lake formed by glaciation in the Quaternary period, and was named "the most beautiful lake in China" by National Geographic magazine in 2009.

Gu Hongyu's first stop on their honeymoon was Kanas, and they were also attracted by many legends of Kanas Lake.

Landing at Altay Airport by plane, looking at the blue sky of the plateau, and feeling the unique climate of the plateau, all of which make people feel refreshed, as if their minds have suddenly opened up.

It was already past noon after getting off the plane, and Mei Ning had a simple meal near the airport, and Gu Hongyu found a tourist bus to Kanas Lake.

Seeing Gu Hongyu and Mei Ning, two handsome men and beautiful women, many tour guides knew their destination and were very eager to recruit them to join the tour group.

In the face of this situation, Gu Hongyu all refused, and the tour group may be arranged in terms of food and accommodation much faster, that is, to visit various scenic spots, they are also familiar with the road, but with the group is also subject to a lot of restrictions, many attractions may not be satisfied with the tour guide is already urging, how can there be such freedom to travel alone.

Especially if you encounter some black-hearted tour guides, the attractions don't play much and directly bring people to some consumption centers of the attractions, then there is no bitterness to say, this kind of thing has been seen on TV and the Internet for a long time, it has relatively formed a routine, and there is no sign of eradication at all.

All refused the tour guide's solicitation, some people saw Gu Hongyu and they didn't care, but some people scolded their backs with swear words, Gu Hongyu shook his head helplessly, you can meet such people everywhere in Huaxia, and now Gu Hongyu is rare to be angry with them.

bought a ticket and found the corresponding bus, Gu Hongyu took Mei Ning on the bus, and just waited for the departure time to go to the destination.

After tossing and turning around like this, when Gu Hongyu and they arrived at Kanas Lake, it was already close to three o'clock in the afternoon, and the Kanas scenic spot was quite large, and they couldn't go out to play today.

Find the hotel and put the luggage inside, Gu Hongyu took Mei Ning and walked out again, although you can't go to those famous attractions, but to be honest, Kanas has a beautiful environment, as long as you get here, you can enjoy the beautiful scenery.

The lake area is not far from the hotel, strolling in the scenic area to feel the breath of nature, after passing through a forest, Kanas Lake is presented in front of Gu Hongyu and Mei Ning.

Kanas Lake is the core essence of Kanas National Nature Reserve.

It is strongly eroded by glaciers, and the ice-stone surface is blocked in the valley, forming a final ridge to form a lake.

The lake is surrounded by verdant mixed coniferous and broad-leaved forests, connected to the vast mountain grasslands. In spring, the grassland is full of flowers and grass. Nearby, the clouds and mist are like white streamers, wrapping around the mountains.

In the distance, there are snowy ice peaks, layers of forests, and ravines dripping green.

In July and August, climb the 2030-meter-high fish pavilion at an altitude overlooking the Kanas Lake and mountains, you will be amazed by the colorful wonders of the lake, under the blue sky and white clouds, the huge lake surface is like a huge palette, the color of the lake is a deep, a shallow, a blue, a green, it is really changeable, beautiful, enjoy the neon beauty of "Baoguang" in Kanas, especially charming.

"Baoguang" is commonly known as "Buddha light". It blends with the world's unique Kanas Lake, the glacier with the mountain dance silver snake, the green grassy grassland, the vast forest, and the light and fluttering mountain mist, which complements each other and makes you feel like you are in a fairyland.

When the sun rises in the east or night falls, take a boat or stand on the platform of the fourth bay to explore the secrets of the lake, and if you are lucky, you can see the mysterious "lake monster" that looks like a small boat from time to time.

Speaking of this lake monster, I have to talk about the allusions that have been handed down.

According to legend, a long time ago, Genghis Khan went west on an expedition to the west, passing through Kanas Lake, saw such a beautiful place, and decided to stay here for a while to rest and recuperate.

Genghis Khan drank the water from the lake, which quenched his thirst, and asked his generals what kind of water it was. A wise general replied: "This is Kanaeus (Mongolian means water of khan)." All the soldiers replied in unison, "This is the water of the Khan." ”

Genghis Khan said: "Then call this lake Kanaeus." So in the legend of the Tuvans, they are the descendants of Genghis Khan. After Genghis Khan's death, his body sank in Kanas Lake, and the Tuvans, as Genghis Khan's personal soldiers, stayed in Kanas Lake and guarded the royal tomb for generations. The "Lake Monster" is the "Lake Saint" who defended the undead of Genghis Khan from being violated.

But these are all ethereal legends and stories, but there is no clear statement on whether there are real lake monsters in Kanas Lake.

Standing on the edge of the crystal clear lake, caressed by a breeze, Gu Hongyu was about to spread out his consciousness to see if he could find other creatures with consciousness in Kanas Lake, and at this moment, Mei Ning beside him trembled.

"Xiao Ning, what's wrong?"

"The temperature here is so low that we all wore thick clothes, and it turned out to be unexpectedly cold." Mei Ning hugged Gu Hongyu's arm tightly and said delicately.

Gu Hongyu didn't feel cold about the temperature here, it was because of his body, and the immortal arts had been cultivated to the innate realm, which can be said to be that as long as it was not an extreme temperature, it was no different for him, and when he got here, he put on a cold-proof suit or Mei Ning forcibly gave it to him, but he still didn't expect that it didn't take long for Mei Ning to be unbearable.

I complained very much in my heart that I didn't think it through, and Gu Hongyu, who took off my cold-proof clothes and put them on Mei Ning, said softly: "Anyway, today is just a casual stroll, in that case, let's go back to the hotel first!" ”

From Honghu Village in the scorching summer to Kanas, many ice and snow in the surrounding mountains here have not completely melted, this kind of climate Gu Hongyu really did not expect before they came.

On the way back, Gu Hongyu and Mei Ning hugged each other and walked slowly, and suddenly at this time, a person in a hurry behind them stumbled towards them, Gu Hongyu quickly pulled Mei Ning, and the person who came took advantage of the situation to come to a four-up.

This person is a middle-aged man who is at least forty years old, Gu Hongyu is very angry with him in his heart, but this person is also strange, he stood up and immediately apologized to Gu Hongyu: "I'm sorry, I mixed garlic with my feet just now." ”

Stretch out your hand not to hit the smiling person, and besides, Gu Hongyu and Mei Ning didn't fight to win this time, "Forget it, we're fine, you don't have to apologize." ”

"Thank you, thank you......" The middle-aged uncle was very grateful, but when he saw Gu Hongyu and Mei Ning's outfits, he immediately said, "Hey, you're new here, right?" ”

"yes, what's the matter?" Gu Hongyu didn't know why.

The middle-aged uncle smiled: "It seems that you didn't know the situation here before you came here, the average temperature in Kanas is only -0.2 Β°C, the extreme maximum temperature is 29.3 Β°C, the lowest temperature is -37 Β°C, and the monthly average temperature is below 0 Β°C for 6 months throughout the year, and the winter is as long as 7 months." The average temperature in the coldest month is -16 Β°C, the average temperature in the hottest July is 15.9 Β°C, and the noon is only 20 Β°C. ”

Looking at Gu Hongyu and the two listening attentively, this middle-aged uncle who was familiar with him explained patiently: "The annual precipitation here is about 1,000 mm, and the maximum precipitation zone is 2,100 meters above sea level. Winters are long, with abundant snowfall, and frosts generally begin in early August. At an altitude of more than 1,400 meters, snow begins to fall in late August; At an altitude of more than 3,000 meters, snowfall begins in early August and lasts until late May or early June of the following year, the snowfall period lasts for about 8 months, the snow depth can reach 1-2 meters, the number of snowfall days is generally more than 73 days, and the stable snow cover period is about 200 days. The snow line is spread at an altitude of about 2,850 meters. Annual evaporation is about 1,000 mm, which is roughly the same as precipitation. The water conditions in Kanas Nature Reserve are good, the air humidity is large, the relative humidity is generally 59-90, the humidity increases with the increase of altitude, and the humidity in the forest can generally reach more than 90. ”

"Fortunately, you came here this time and chose a more suitable time by mistake, the weather here in May began to rise, but it is also very limited, the temperature is no more than ten degrees today, and it will drop below 0 degrees at night, the young man is in good health, but you have to take care of your female companion!"

Facing this self-acquainted middle-aged uncle Gu Hongyu, he was speechless, and thanks to such a person, he became more familiar with Kanas: "Thank you, uncle, I didn't know your name after telling us for a long time!" ”

"Hehe, everyone else calls me Lao Qin, you can call me Uncle Qin or Lao Qin." Uncle Qin said with a smile.

Walking all the way back to the hotel, Uncle Qin actually followed them: "Uncle Qin also lives in this hotel?" ”

"Ah, you too?" After speaking, both sides looked at each other and smiled.

"This hotel is not bad, I won't talk about the living environment, but the signature dishes of this hotel are famous." Uncle Qin continued to introduce the situation here.

Gu Hongyu and Mei Ning were stunned, this Uncle Qin is really well-informed, can't everyone live here for a long time, otherwise how can they know everything about this place.

But before Gu Hongyu and the others could ask the doubts in their hearts, Uncle Qin began his tirade again: "Don't look at me like this, I have only been here for a few days, but as a person who likes food, of course I have to do some research here, huh...... That's it, you should get the idea, right? ”

From the information revealed between the lines of Uncle Qin's words, Gu Hongyu is very sure that he is an authentic foodie, this person is in his forties and runs around in order to covet food, and it seems that his family background is also very solid, otherwise how can he have spare money and go around chic.

"Hehe, I understand." Gu Hongyu smiled dryly: "I don't know what the signature dish of this hotel is, it can actually attract Uncle Qin's attention." ”

Uncle Qin mimi: "Speaking of which, there are many species produced around Kanas Lake, such as Altailin frogs, arctic vipers, viviparous lizards, rock ptarmigans, common grouse, salmon (commonly known as big red fish), fine salmon, burbot, arctic catfish, Siberian livel, as well as pike, five black, flat flower, red perch, small white stripe and other species, these things you can't see in other places, and many hotels here have food made with them as raw materials, In particular, red sea bass is so scarce, and many local hotels do not have a share. ”

"What? Could it be that this hotel has red perch, and Uncle Qin is here for red perch? Gu Hongyu asked.

Uncle Qin smiled embarrassedly: "No, I was going to go to Wolong Bay in the afternoon, who would have thought that a guy who had just arrived at the Ditou Hotel would call me and say that a fisherman had just caught a red bass in the lake, so I hurried back and almost bumped into you......"

I see, Uncle Qin is really hard enough for food, Gu Hongyu is a self-proclaimed food lover, and he can't reach his crazy Cheng DΓΉ.

"What does red bass taste like?" Obviously, Uncle Qin's words aroused Gu Hongyu's curiosity.

Speaking of Uncle Qin's strengths, he immediately introduced Gu Hongyu and Mei Ning with great interest: "This kind of fish is very peculiar, suitable for various cooking techniques, and the taste of various different methods is different, but it is undoubtedly very delicious." ”

"When I was young, I came here, at that time the number of red bass in Kanas Lake was quite large, I ate it once and still have an aftertaste, but I haven't been here for more than ten or twenty years, I can't imagine that this fish is going to be extinct now......" Uncle Qin has an indescribable sigh of remembrance.

"Oh, by the way, I told the hotel manager to let him keep the fish for me, now I'm going to have to go and have a look." Speaking of this, Uncle Qin hurriedly ran towards the hotel again.

This person ......, this character is ......, Gu Hongyu saw his back that disappeared quickly, and his heart was also drunk.

Mei Ning chuckled: "Brother Yu, this Uncle Qin is really ......"

Seeing that the time was almost five o'clock, when she returned to the hotel, Mei Ning didn't feel cold, Gu Hongyu said: "Xiao Ning, we didn't have a good meal at noon, now why don't we eat first, and then go back to the room to do what we love to do." ”

"I hate it......" Mei Ningjiao said.

"Hehe, let's go, go to the catering department." Gu Hongyu took the lead in the front, but before they could take a few steps, a familiar voice came from behind him: "Brother, don't go, I'm coming down with red perch, the whole fish is still relatively big, I'll invite you to taste the deliciousness of this fish later." ”

"Really ......"

"It's true!" R1152
