In less than two hours, I arrived at Hohhot Airport, which is the provincial capital of Inner Mongolia, because it was an afternoon plane, and it was already more than 7 o'clock in the afternoon when I arrived in Hoh.

In summer, the sunset in Inner Mongolia is relatively late, and even at 8 o'clock, the sun has not yet set. However, the weather here is not as hot and dry as the imperial capital, and the breeze is slightly cool, which is very comfortable.

When Yan Muqing and Hao Sijia were waiting in line for a taxi, Lu Anming's message came

[Qingqing, have you arrived]

[Well, when I arrived, I just turned it on, and I saw your message]

[What's the weather like over there, is it cold or not]

[It's almost the same as the imperial capital, it's cooler than the imperial capital, what are you doing]

[Oh, I'm fine, I'm fine, I had some dinner after work, I just sat on the sofa at this time, I guess you should get off the plane, so I'll send you a message]

[Really calculated, Zhuge Kongming is alive] Yan Muqing teased

[Have you eaten or not, are you hungry? 】

[I ate a little on the plane, and I wasn't hungry]

[I will eat some more at the hotel in a while, the roast mutton over there is very delicious, and the restaurant will close when it is late] Lu Anming thoughtfully instructed her

[Okay, I know, the car is coming, I'll talk to you at the hotel]

【Oku, okay】

After that, Yan Muqing didn't reply anymore, and was busy carrying luggage with Hao Sijia to get into the car.

Out of the airport, there is still some distance from the city, surrounded by rolling mountains, there are very few cars on the road, not even a quarter of the imperial capital. Scarlett is a close-knit person, and she has already chatted with the driver at this time.

Yan Muqing picked up his mobile phone and typed a few words [Landing, peace], and the recipient was Li Haoyong.

Subsequently, he sent another one to Lu Anming, with the same content.

After a while, the other party also replied with a message [Pay attention to safety, I have arrived in the imperial capital], it was Li Haoyong.

It wasn't until he arrived at the hotel that Lu Anming replied to the message. [Have a good rest and look forward to returning]

Yan Muqing looked at the information and smiled, I am also looking forward to the return.

Nothing was said all night. A night of trimming made Yan Muqing and the others feel refreshed, breathed fresh air, and embarked on the journey to the grassland.

————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————

The land is vast and sparsely populated, and there are few cars to be seen along the way. Today's accompanying car is arranged in advance by the company, an SUV with excellent climbing performance, the driver is a young man, very talkative, very funny, chatting about some local customs along the way, and the long journey does not seem so boring.

When you get off the highway, the terrain becomes uneven. The wide asphalt road has also been turned into a potholed gravel road. Occasionally passing through the villages, the distance between the houses is also very long, one by one, and there are few people. Occasionally, you will encounter a speeding vehicle, leaving a trail of dust behind the rear of the car.

On both sides of the gravel road, there are either patches of wheat fields or sparse dwarf trees.

The wheat field near the roadside is sparse and sparse, and the leaves are covered with a thick layer of dust, drooping downward, because of the lack of water, the leaves are a little curled, and the whole wheat field does not see the vitality of the green, but the sickly yellow. Connecting with the sky in the distance, the sky is blue, the leaves are yellow, the breeze blows, the wheat waves are pressed layer by layer, and the "rustle" sound of rubbing between the leaves can be heard when you open the car window, which is very spectacular.

There is very little fertile land here, and all you can see is gravel. On both sides of the highway are planted poplars, the leaves are not very lush, the trunks are straight, slightly bare, like guards standing guard, the posture is upright.

Some wastelands are planted with Pinus tabuliformis, juniper, and sandy cypress, all of which are drought-resistant, stocky and stocky plants that are easy to survive.

Perennial ultraviolet radiation and strong wind blowing, the faces of the people here are almost uniform, black and red, the tone of the mouth is a little close to the accent of Shanxi and Shaanxi, but the tone of the thin sound is stronger than the tone of these two provinces, and it can be heard that Mu Qing's ears are like stuffed with cotton, and you must listen carefully to distinguish its meaning.

At noon, the three of them had lunch at a very famous noodle shop, and a small waterway was artificially repaired in the courtyard, surrounding the entire courtyard, and the water was very clear and cool. The corner of the wall is a fence less than two meters high with wood, and there are pheasants newly caught by the shopkeeper in it, with long tail feathers, red and black, very afraid of people, and has been hiding under the shack, no matter how everyone lures them with food, they will never show their heads.

Further inside are two little lambs, curly hair, different from pheasants' subtle and fearful of life, they quite have a kind of birth calf is not afraid of the tiger's momentum, when the diners are watching, they will also take the initiative to come over to ask for food to eat, and they will not be stingy with their "bleating" sound after being satisfied, and the milk is milky.

The innermost are two peacocks, pacing in their own territory arbitrarily, not afraid of life, and will not please anyone, a few children, teasing them with colorful flowers, the peacock just paused slightly, and then continued to pace the square steps, very arrogant. Obviously, the stimulation failed to open the screen, and after a while, a few little guys returned in disappointment.

The waiter at the door was dressed in Tibetan clothes and enthusiastically guided the position of Yan Muqing and the others.

Of course, if you try the specialty of this place, the noodles.

Noodles, as the name suggests, are flour made from ground wheat, and the taste is spicy, salty, and sour.

Its practice is also varied, such as noodle fish, noodle nest, noodle dundun, noodle dumpling, noodle puppet...... There are no less than 20 kinds of steamed noodles alone.

Yan Muqing ordered fried noodles and fish, kneaded dough kneaded into thin strips, cut into small agents, kneaded into two sharp ends, small fish bulging in the middle, steamed in the pot, and then fried, Yan Muqing likes to eat spicy, and specially instructed to put more chili peppers.

Hao Sijia's noodle nest, it is said that this is also called the noodle of the noodles, boiling water and noodles, after waking up, pull a piece and put it on a smooth panel, rub it into a small round ball, push it into a cow's tongue shape, lift it and roll it on the index finger, roll it into the shape of a cat's ear, long inch, thin as a leaf, and light yellow in color. After rolling, put it on a steamer to steam. The finished nests stand next to each other in the steamer, like honeycombs. It is also delicious with dipping sauce.

Because the young chef is a local, he didn't order any special food, and a simple bowl of lo mein was done.

This meal seems simple, but it is actually the most comfortable meal that Yan Muqing has eaten in Inner Mongolia, and Hao Sijia is also unsatisfied.

No wonder there is a saying that "Yin Mountain is the world".

After they were full of wine and food, well, there was no wine, and the three of them continued to hurry.

The further you go, the fewer cars there are, and the large grasslands on both sides of the road, herds of cattle and sheep, crossing the rivers of the grassland, shine in the sun. The mountains in the distance are gradually becoming clearer, connecting with the sky, undulating, as if there is no boundary, and the place where the sun shines can still see the cottages on the distant mountains, a beautiful picture.
