After clarifying the face problem, Li Chenglong said that the train will not leave until half past twelve noon tomorrow, and we can sleep well now, and he will come back to call us when the time comes. I looked at the train ticket in my hand www.biquge.info it is indeed from Hohhot at half past twelve at noon tomorrow, because there is no direct train ticket to Lhasa, so we have to take it to Taiyuan Station in Shaanxi Province first, and then transfer to Lhasa.

Maybe it's because I've been too tired all the way recently, not long after Li Chenglong left, I fell asleep and slept until nine o'clock in the morning the next day, at this time, Li Chenglong found us and sent each of us a backpack, opened it to see, there were two sets of change of clothes, and more than 10,000 yuan in cash.

Saying goodbye to the third uncle, we followed Li Chenglong out of the house, an inconspicuous Jinbei van was parked outside, and after getting into the car, Li Chenglong said to us: "When you get to the entrance later, you will meet with a tour group, and then get on the bus together." After saying that, he gave one of us a red tourist cap and a small five-star red flag.

We took the things, put the hat on our heads early, and waved the small red flag in our hands from time to time, the atmosphere looked, it really looked like going to travel, Li Chenglong continued to remind: "This tour is specially organized for you by a member of our outside, as long as you don't blow up your identity stupidly, there should be no problem along the way." ”

There was nothing to say all the way, Qingshuihe County was more than two hours' drive from Hohhot, but we took the high speed, and Li Chenglong drove very fast, less than two hours, we arrived in Hohhot, and then it took more than 20 minutes to arrive at the railway station in Hohhot.

During this period, Li Chenglong's mobile phone rang several times, all of which were calls from his other partner, saying that it was almost twelve o'clock, why was there no one yet. In fact, we took the time very well, and when we met with the tourist team, it was only 11:40, and there was still more than half an hour of waiting time.

Before parting, Li Chenglong said to us slightly apologetically: "I still have a lot of things to do when I go back, and I won't send you after entering the station, but you can rest assured, with your current identity, it will not arouse anyone's suspicion at all." ”

Saying goodbye to Li Chenglong, the four of us followed Li Chenglong's so-called partner into the station, Li Chenglong's partner didn't know what his name was, just let us call him Xiao Li, but the actual age is at least thirty-five or more.

Maybe it was out of professional inertia, or for confidentiality, Xiao Li didn't say anything to us on the road, but only told us that in case of any changes, we just withdraw, everything has him to deal with, and then he went to talk to other tourist staff, and saw him chatting happily, but like a tour guide.

I was a little nervous at the pit stop, but it was redundant, and we passed the level without any twists and turns. I secretly admired the superb skill of the makeup artist, and the comrades who checked the ID cards did not find the slightest clue from us, just like treating ordinary people, they were released after a few glances, and as for the later boarding, it was smoother, there were many people, and the conductor didn't even have time to check the ticket, so he was squeezed away.

Li Chenglong bought us a sleeper ticket, and the location is together, although there are other tourists next to it, but it is better than in a crowded carriage, we didn't say anything for the sake of insurance, and lay down quietly to rest.

After getting off the train, Xiao Li contacted the local family members, about half an hour later, a middle-aged man sent us a train ticket from Taiyuan to Lhasa, and the train will come in half an hour, so after saying a few polite words, the four of us said goodbye to Xiao Li, went to the waiting room, and not long after, we got on the train to Lhasa again, and started another journey.

It took longer to get from Taiyuan to Lhasa, it took fifteen hours, and when I arrived in Lhasa, it was exactly three o'clock in the afternoon, I got off the bus and breathed the air.

Before coming, we asked Sankra carefully, and he said that the Jokhang Temple is not far from the Lhasa train station, and a taxi is only about 30 yuan, so we immediately stopped a taxi and went straight to the Jokhang Temple.

Jokhang Temple was established in the Zhenguan period, with a history of more than 1,300 years, and has an irreplaceable supreme position in Tibetan Buddhism. After several dynasties of repair, today's Jokhang Temple has a huge scale, occupying a land area of up to 20,000 square meters, and is listed as a world cultural heritage.

After more than ten minutes, the car reached the vicinity of the Jokhang Temple, because the Jokhang Temple is revered as a holy temple in Lhasa, out of respect, the driver stopped the car far away, and kindly reminded us not to make loud noises when we go to visit. We nodded our thanks, paid the fare, and did not rush into the temple in a hurry, but walked into the crowded square and looked at the Jokhang Temple from a distance.

The gate of Jokhang Temple is very peculiar, from a distance, it looks like a house with horns, there are many exquisite patterns on it, there are many thangkas hanging on the door wall, and some famous monks are embroidered on it. There are many people worshipping in front of the temple, which is the kind of five-body worship that shows great sincerity.

At this time, the standard said to me: "There are a lot of people here, if the people above are mixed in, we can't see it at all, you quickly send a message to the big bald head, let him arrange a time to meet, damn, the sun here is really shining." ”

I nodded, and immediately sent a message to Sankra with **, and it didn't take long to receive an answer, asking us not to worry, go to the far left of the temple square first, and when he finishes dealing with the things in hand, he will come to us immediately.

There were also a lot of people on the left side of the square, and we found a place with few people to wait, and it was boring to be idle, so I lit a cigarette and began to discuss what the inside of the Jokhang Temple looked like behind the high wall, and whether Sankra was as mixed in the temple as he said.

After about ten minutes, Sankra really appeared in front of us, and he also had some scruples, this guy did not wear the very conspicuous monk's robe at the moment, and he also wore a hat to cover his big bald head. Maybe our appearance has changed too much, Sankra circled around us several times, but he didn't recognize us, and I and the sign were happy for a while, and finally I couldn't help it, so I made a statement of identity.

After the meeting, Sankla and we had a big bear hug, but he immediately said with a wary face that it was not advisable to stay here for long, and hurried with him. We knew that the situation was not ordinary, so we didn't have the heart to say anything else, so we followed Sankla's footsteps out of the square and headed for the back gate of the Jokhang Temple.

Those who were following were discovered by Wu Jian, who were about twenty meters away from us, and while speeding up and walking towards us, they lowered their heads and said something, obviously carrying something like a walkie-talkie, and they were reporting to others at the moment.

It seems that the above has long been ready to wait for the rabbit, since this is the case, there is no need for us to continue to hide it, Sankra saw the opportunity and shouted, "Damn, it was discovered so quickly, we must find a way to get rid of them, you follow!" When he had finished speaking, he ran away, and we followed closely behind.

Sure enough, as soon as we moved, the people who were following behind us immediately sped up, but Sankla grew up here and was no longer familiar with the surrounding buildings, so he led us into a crowded alleyway. There were many forks in the roadway, and there were many people, so we ran around for more than ten minutes, and finally succeeded in throwing off the tail behind us, and at this time, Sankla breathed a sigh of relief.

Now that there is a crisis everywhere we go, it is really unlucky, I gasped and asked eagerly, "How can we enter the temple now?" ”

Sankra thought for a while, and then had an idea in his heart, and comforted us: "Don't worry, during the Ming Dynasty, in case of accidents in the temple, a secret passage was specially built from the inside to the outside, and we can enter from there." ”

Without further ado, let's not talk nonsense and tell Sankla to lead the way.

The secret passage that Sankra said is on the left side of the Jokhang Temple, there is an old street, the houses are very dense, and the entrance of the secret passage is in a dyeing house, and the family of the dyeing house secretly belongs to the monks of the Jokhang Temple.

When they arrived at the dyeing house, the family of three immediately recognized Sankra and hurriedly came over to salute and greet us, but they were surprised by Sankra's appearance and asked what they were doing here.

In order to disguise our identity, Sankra lied that we were guests invited by the Nyingma Living Buddha, and because some uneasy and well-meaning people were following us, he used this place to use it to disturb you.

The owner of the dyeing house thought for a while, and said with some embarrassment: "It's not that I don't respect the Sang guards, you also know that there are rules in the temple, unless you encounter a major situation, this secret passage cannot be easily opened, and I hope you can find another way." ”

When he was refused, Sankra didn't move, he nodded, and said calmly: "Okay, if there are any problems with these friends because of your hesitation, I will report it truthfully to Master Nyingma." ”

As soon as he heard the name of the Nyingma Living Buddha, the face of the owner of the dyeing cloth room changed a few times, as if he had some scruples in his heart, and after thinking for a long time, he clasped his hands together and said slightly apologetically: "Don't be careful, since it is a matter explained by the Living Buddha, naturally do as instructed, please come with me."
