Along the Yezi Line National Highway, it entered the Nanshan desert from the oasis of Yebei City, and then went deep into the hinterland of the Karakoram Mountains from west to east.

It's too remote, the road is far away, the medical conditions are not good, and there is no beautiful scenery on the road, except for the black-brown mountains, which are connected to the skyline with the top of the snow~

When he first arrived, Zhou Kewen looked at the desolation outside the car window, and a sense of loneliness came to his heart, and he was inexplicably a little flustered.

Because if something happens here, it's basically a goodbye to the world!

turned on his phone and looked at the photo of his girlfriend and himself on the screensaver, he touched the red rope in his hand, and could only secretly pray that he could have a safe journey all the way.

……

The breeze on the road is not dry, the sun is just right, Liu Xiaoye, as a travel blogger, gets out of the car from time to time and takes videos with Tingting and Anan.

For the scenery along the way, Liu Xiaoye explained carefully, she came three or four times this time, and she already knew about it.

Leaning on the car window, looking at their life, Zhou Kewen was a little envious, but he didn't want to try it for the time being, because there were still people and things in the bustling city that he couldn't rest assured.

Squinting his eyes and feeling the wind blowing from the Kunlun Mountains, he enjoyed this moment of tranquility......

"You love me, I love you, Honey Snow Ice City is sweet~"

A burst of demonic music sounded, but it was a video call from Zhao Zichen!

"Where are you?"

"I'm at the top of Kunlun~"

"The pinnacle of the, honestly, where."

Zhao Zichen looked at Zhou Kewen with a smug face, and suddenly couldn't help but laugh and scold.

"Huh."

He shone the camera out the window, and not far away was the endless Kunlun Mountains~

"Damn, did you really go to Kunlun Mountain?"

Zhou Kewen smiled, leaned on the car and said comfortably: "I just sent my girlfriend to southern Xinjiang, so I stopped when I passed by and came to have a look." ”

"Oh oh ~ I see."

"Tell me, what are you doing?"

"Hehe, it's nothing, it's not that this month's salary is paid late, and then ......"

Shaking his head and sighing, Zhou Kewen directly transferred 1000 to Alipay.

"I've got it for you."

"Oh~ thank you, brother."

After hanging up the video, Zhou Kewen looked at the scenery outside the car and smiled, this sudden interruption was also very good, making him want to return to the downtown area......

Along the way, Anan and Liu Xiaoye switched droves, while Zhou Kewen and Tingting chatted in the back.

Liu Xiaoye belongs to a well-known travel blogger, with three or four hundred thousand fans on the whole network, and Tingting and Anan are Liu Xiaoye's assistants.

Tingting in addition to daily shooting is to edit videos, Zhou Kewen watched her operation on the computer, tried to learn, and found that video editing is actually simple, but it takes inspiration and experience to deal with the clips~

The road ahead is a bit boring, but there are also some interesting things, because Zhou Kewen will meet some travelers from time to time on the way.

Some of them drove in groups on the Xin-Tibet line, feeling the charm of the scenery along the road, and some were like lone wolves, wandering aimlessly in the mountains alone.

Some, like him, hitchhiked bravely forward.

Some of them aim to travel around the seven continents of the world by bicycle, and I heard that they have been riding for nine years and have now traveled around the five continents of the world.

"The Mysterious Arctic Circle, the Mountain Peaks of Alaska" We listen to it as a song, but others have really been there!

Some rode motorcycles around China, and it cost 400,000 yuan just to drive a BMW station wagon, and they were still a small boss in Star City.

Zhou Kewen stepped forward to talk to him for a few words, left his contact information, and thought that if he had leisure in the future, it would be good to buy a station wagon to travel around the country.

Everyone I meet seems to be a collection of stories, and there are all kinds of strange stories on their bodies, even if you just listen to them, you can feel the excitement of their lives!

They are different, but they all have one thing in common, that is, they love life, and in this world, they are all trying to find their own purpose.

What is my purpose......

Walk until late at night.

In a small campsite, Liu Xiaoye asked Anan to stop the car, and several people found a Sichuan restaurant, had a simple meal, and then found a small hotel to live and rest, 120 yuan for a double room.

Zhou Kewen and Anan live in one room, and Liu Xiaoye and Tingting live next door.

Zhou Kewen on the bed is very awkward, because the room is very dirty, although it looks like the standard of the hotel, but quietly lift the quilt, and there is black garbage underneath!

Sleeping in clothes, he was so clean that he couldn't sleep and tossed and turned.

On the side, Anan, who was woken up by the sound of flipping, asked aloud, "What's wrong?" You can't stand this environment, can you? ”

"Sort of!"

He agreed, there was no need to dress up.

Since he got rich, except for those snowy nights because of Fa Xiao Azheng's dishonesty, he basically slept very peacefully every night, either a luxury hotel or a river-view villa~

used to live a poor life for 20 years, but now that he has only been able to endure the past three months after becoming rich, he can't bear the hardships anymore!

Looking out the window at the moonlit night, he couldn't help but sigh.

Anan in the next bed smiled after hearing this:

"Haha, you've seen that movie, right? Such! You just think, this is now in the North Pole, the outside is freezing and snowing dozens of degrees below zero, and we are in a safe house with no worries about food and clothing, and there is still a beautiful ...... next to you Bah! Anyway, if you think about it like this, think about it, and you can fall asleep. ”

Puff~

Listening to Anan's comfort, Zhou Kewen couldn't help laughing.

"Okay, I won't bother you, sleep!"

……

At about seven o'clock in the morning, Zhou Kewen and Anan were woken up by a knock on the door.

"Ready to go."

Tingting at the door looked at Zhou Kewen who opened the door and said.

"Okay."

The sky outside was slightly bright, and the four of them simply ate two mouthfuls of naan, drank two cups of hot water, and then continued to get in the car and embark on the journey~

Fuguang rises in the east, gradually rendering the Kunlun Mountains on both sides into gold, and at this moment, this mysterious holy land exudes its unique charm.

Kunlun.

This name, which has been passed down for thousands of years, is an inseparable existence in the hearts of every Chinese......

After four hours of walking towards the morning light, at 11 o'clock at noon, I finally arrived at the destination of Zhou Kewen's trip:

Kangsiwa Martyrs Cemetery

It is located in the hinterland of the Karakoram Mountains, with an altitude of 4,280 meters, it is the highest martyr cemetery in China, built in May 1965, and the cemetery has buried more than 100 revolutionary soldiers who died in the line of duty!

~

Liu Xiaoye asked Anan to park the car on the side of the road, and Zhou Kewen in the back row got out of the car with a large bag of luggage, he took off his sunglasses and looked not far away.

On the silent and desolate hillside, there is a towering monument, and the location of the monument is the Kangxiwa Martyrs Cemetery, which is regarded as the spiritual home and spiritual highland of the officers and soldiers of the plateau.

Carrying a heavy bag, Zhou Kewen quietly walked towards the cemetery, Liu Xiaoye and the three of them also got out of the car, and they were going to go in and have a look, although they had been here more than once.

When you enter the cemetery, you will see a monument, and the front is engraved with 13 golden characters of "The martyrs who defend the border defense of the motherland are immortal".

In front of the monument, there is an incense burner and a stove for burning paper.

Seeing this, Zhou Kewen breathed a sigh of relief, he checked the things he was carrying, stepped forward and put them on the ground, and took out a box of incense and a bag of yellow paper from it.

Taking out three sticks of incense and lighting it, he bowed to the monument.

Looking at the hundreds of cemeteries behind the monument, as well as the snow-capped mountains of Kunlun not far away, he threw the yellow paper into the incense burner and lit it, took a long breath and whispered: "Although I am a native of northern Xinjiang, I ...... Without Southern Xinjiang, where would Northern Xinjiang come from?

My family and I were able to live and work in this territory so that my girlfriend was able to come here and go to school with peace of mind.

These are inseparable from the protection of your lives!

I really hope that there is reincarnation in this world.

I really hope for the next life...... You can live your life in peace. ”

The ashes fell, and suddenly a strong wind rose, and the dust drifted away with the wind from time to time......

Looking at this scene, Liu Xiaoye and the others behind him were silent, they took the unused incense and lit it, and also bowed a few times~

When he turned his head again, he found that Zhou Kewen had disappeared, and when he looked for it, he had already entered the cemetery......

In front of a tombstone, Zhou Kewen, who was carrying a heavy bag, stopped.

Martyr Chen Xiangrong, male, from Pingnan, Fu Province, born in December 2001, died in the border defense struggle in June 2020, and was posthumously recorded as a first-class meritorious service.

"Oh, boy, I'm here to see you."

Putting down his bags, Zhou Kewen smiled and took out the contents inside, "Look at this, these two oranges are a Uyghur old man asked me to hand them over to you, they look fresh and delicious, I will peel them for you." ”

"However, others say that you like to eat oranges, but I am afraid that you will want to eat other things, so I also brought you grapes from Tulu and fragrant pears from Kur...... The melon of Hami, the pomegranate of Kashi...... And also...... Red dates from Hetian, Ah ...... AKS's Apple ......"

"Heh~ It's all delicious...... It's delicious. Though...... Some I haven't eaten either. Speaking of these, Zhou Kewen sat on the ground with a choked voice.

"You are as old as me, but for the sake of this territory, at the best age of your life, you have left this world forever!"

Side.

An old uncle walked over, looked at the tombstone full of fruits, he sighed softly and said: "The man has no regrets about the border pass, and the snow mountain is fortunate to bury the bones!" Young man, you're going back to Ye-City, aren't you? ”

Looking at the old uncle, Zhou Kewen raised her nose and looked at Liu Xiaoye not far away, she was pointing to herself and the people on the side, thinking that she should have said it.

"Hmm."

"That's a coincidence, I happened to be passing by here to see my group of comrades, and I can drop you back later."

"Good! Thank you, uncle, what do you call it? ”

"Gotta ~ just call me Uncle Hai."

"Hello Uncle Hai, my name is Zhou Kewen."

The old uncle looked at the young man in front of him and nodded with a smile, then glanced at the tombstone, and then turned to leave.

On the ground, Zhou Kewen also got up and got up with his backpack~

Looking at the tombstone, he sighed:

"Although I have done nothing, I have never been afraid of fighting on the battlefield, and we will protect this land and water in the future......"

With that, he turned and left the place.

~

Coming to the gate of the martyrs' cemetery, Zhou Kewen said goodbye to Liu Xiaoye, thanking her and Anan and Tingting for their help along the way.

"Leave these things to you, I bought too much, and I can't eat them all by myself."

Putting down a backpack of food, Zhou Kewen smiled and waved goodbye to several people.

Looking at Zhou Kewen's young back, Liu Xiaoye smiled with Tingting and Anan on the side, "Sister Xiaoye, these foods, I'm afraid this kid bought the prepared travel expenses in advance, right?" ”

"I guess so, but I'm an interesting person." After speaking, Liu Xiaoye turned around and waved his hand with a smile, "Let's go, continue to move forward." ”

……

On a Mitsubishi military off-road vehicle driving from east to west, Zhou Kewen and Uncle Hai chatted idly.

Uncle Hai's name is Hai Dongyang, an authentic Jingbei man, a veteran, this time because he wanted to relax, so he drove here alone.

"Little brother, where are you from?" Uncle Hai, who has an authentic Jingbei film, asked.

"I'm from the north of Xinjiang, a native of Qingcheng."

"Qingcheng's? Youhe~ Isn't that a coincidence? My destination this time is Cheongseong. ”

"Really? That's a coincidence! What are you going to do? ”

"Me! One is to travel in the past, and the other is to go there to observe and visit. ”

"Visiting?"

"Harm~ That's the case, isn't our country going to hold the East Olympics? That skiing must be the birthplace of Qingcheng cattle, isn't it? So I was ready to go and learn. ”

"Oh~ then who are you?"

"I'm a volunteer of the East Olympics!"

"Gotta ~ understood."

Uncle Hai thought about it and suddenly said, "Little brother, do you want to drive over with me?" ”

“……”

Zhou Kewen thought about it for a moment or two, and asked tentatively, "How long will it take?" ”

"More than half a month."

"Alas!" Hearing this, Zhou Kewen sighed and shook his head, "It's been too long, I'm going to rush back in this moment." ”

"Alas~ Okay!"

Uncle Hai didn't say anything more, and started the car seriously.

……

Next.

YC County Railway Station.

Zhou Kewen waved goodbye to Uncle Hai, who hated to see each other late, if he wasn't really in a hurry to go back, he really wanted to drive forward with Uncle Hai, who had a lot of experience!

However, the two also left contact information, and made an appointment to wait for Uncle Hai to arrive in Qingcheng, and Zhou Kewen warmly entertained Hai Dongyang as the host.

"Okay, I'll see you in Qingcheng then."

"Gotta ~ Don't worry."

Learning from Jingbei films, Zhou Kewen smiled and waved his hand to Uncle Hai, and embarked on the way home.

From YC County - Wu City.

It takes a whole day and a night to take the train, and Zhou Kewen is actually a little tired after tossing all the way.

He wanted to fly back to Qingcheng directly by plane, but after thinking about his life, he still forgot it!

See you later, and look forward to it more~

When the train passed by the stone tower late at night, Zhou Kewen did not stop to see Dong Yulu, looking out the window, he made a video call with his girlfriend and told him how much he missed.

Dong Yulu: "If you want me, come to see me." ”

Zhou Kewen smiled and did not speak.

I'll see you later, soon......

The train left Shita City, Zhou Kewen sat by the soft sleeper window and coded on the computer, he had a lot of emotions recently, and he wanted to write some words.

The lower bunk opposite was a young man of twenty-five or sixteen, who was heading to Wushi from Hotan, and he was also quite curious about Zhou Kewen, because since he got into the car, he found that Zhou Kewen would type things on the computer from time to time.

Therefore, when he deliberately passed by Zhou Kewen's side, he took a look and found that it was actually a code word, as if it was writing.

"Brother, what are you writing here? Is it? ”

"Sort of."

Zhou Kewen looked up at the young man and replied with a smile.

"Oh? Can you send it to me, I'm bored anyway. ”

"This ......" Zhou Kewen thought about it for a moment or two, but it was not impossible, what he wrote was just some essays, similar to a travel diary.

"Just search for zero."

"Okay."

The young man smiled and nodded, lay back on the bed, took his mobile phone and looked at it......
