Looking at Kanas Lake from where they were, they couldn't see the somewhat abrupt pier. If you ignore the boat they take and only look at the shore and the lake, then it is really like an oil painting, and many Nordic-style oil paintings in reality have such lakes and forests.

Kanas is known to many as Little Switzerland, and there is probably a reason for that. Chen Xing heard a saying a long time ago, if you just want to see the landform, then Huaxia can meet all your requirements, he has plateaus, mountains, hilly basins, plains, grasslands, seashores and forests.

The charm of Kanas Chen Xing has only been seen in Western movies, but who would have thought that in the west of China, there is also such a woodland and such a lake?

The surface of the lake is rippling with blue waves, and the trees on the shore of the lake are piled up with snow, and against the background of that white, only blue is left on the surface of the lake.

All that remained on deck was the sound of the wind and the shutter. After Chen Xing took a few photos, Huang Tao next to him whispered: "This captain is comfortable, his daily job is to drive the boat, and then come up to help the beauties take pictures, and so on." Hearing this, Liu Xiaolan also looked at the captain.

At this time, he was holding a tourist's camera, directing three female tourists who came with him to pose.

"Three, two, one!" Chen Xing pressed the shutter simultaneously with him. He photographed the three young ladies, and Chen Xing photographed all of them.

Then putting down the camera, Chen Xing said: "Maybe this is the most comfortable job in the world, at least one of them." ”

"Agreed." Huang Tao nodded and said. After a short rest, the cruise continues on its way. The boat will pass by several attractions on Kanas Lake, from a bend to Sidao Bay, and the captain will explain to tourists who do not know about the Kanas water monster.

The rumors of the Kanas Lake monster have been around for a long time, at first it was said by local herdsmen, saying that there were water monsters in the water, and they would often drag the horses drinking by the lake into the water, and later Yanjing also sent experts to investigate.

One tourist asked, "Is there any result of the survey?" ”

"There is no result, let's say it is Zherova, but how old is Zherova, the water monster we see is very big just in the water, and you can clearly see it when you stand on the fish viewing platform, how can it be an ordinary fish." Chen Xing asked, "Have you seen it?" ”

"Yes, in the past, livestock were often lost here, and some people said that they used a special, very large kind of fishing net to be placed downstream, and then many boats were used to set off side by side to drive away the fish, so that ordinary fish could swim directly through the net, and the water monster would be left behind."

"And then, we stood on a high place and looked, and we could see clearly a group of things with the naked eye, a red mass of things, turned sideways, red under the water, red here, and there, and I counted them, and there were at least dozens of them, very large, and they were bigger than boats from our position, and they washed the nets as soon as they rushed."

"Didn't you catch it later?"

"We haven't seen a water monster since, only rumors." Chen Xing didn't know if it was true, but if the captain wasn't lying, then what they saw might be a species that hadn't been discovered.

After getting off the boat, some people turned back directly, Chen Xing and they all wanted to stay in Kanas to live, so they were not in a hurry, they walked along the plank road along the lake, walking, there were not many pedestrians along the way, but they also encountered occasionally, most of them were dragged with their families, and the children's joyful voices could be heard from a long distance.

This place does not only belong to them, but also some small animals are also shuttling through the forest. Squirrels are the majority, and this small animal can be seen in many places in Kanas, and when they run, their whole body beats like a lake blown by the wind, which is very healing and beautiful.

From this boardwalk, you can go all the way to the place where you can play rafting, but now the season is not right, and rafting has been closed.

However, you can see the mouth of Kanas Lake, and the water rushes from the lake into this estuary, and the speed is extremely fast, and when it flows to the stones, all the white waves are sprayed, and there is a feeling of rushing magnificence.

By the time they walked back to the visitor center, it was almost four o'clock. No one said that they were tired after a few hours of walking halfway, Chen Xing naturally didn't care, but Huang Tao and Liu Xiaolan, who sat in the office all the year round, could persevere, Chen Xing really didn't expect it, he thought that the two of them would take the car back halfway.

"Let's move on to the next attraction?" Liu Xiaolan said.

"Yes." Chen Xing nodded, he still had plenty of physical strength. However, when a staff member next to him heard them speak, he hurriedly asked, "Where are you going?" Liu Xiaolan said: "Go to Moon Bay." ”

"I can't go, it's already the last train, anyway, there is no car coming back now, only the car going out, see if you want to go."

"Still walking?" Huang Tao was taken aback. He walked back stiffly, Chen Xing and Liu Xiaolan didn't say that they were tired, and he definitely didn't dare to say it.

Although he has persevered now, if he is allowed to walk this distance again, it is really a question whether he will be able to get out of bed tomorrow morning.

Chen Xing asked, "How far is it to walk back?" ”

"Walking back, I suggest you don't go, far, far away." Kanas is the largest scenic spot that Chen Xing has encountered, the length of the lake alone is 25 kilometers, and this is not counting the river water on the edge, these rivers are also included in the scenic spot of Kanas, so don't look at the marks on the navigation map are very close, but the actual distance is like what the eldest brother said, it is far, far away.

Huang Tao said: "Then our tour today is probably over, let's go to Kanas Lake to drive the car back?" ”

"By car or by foot?"

"Then I must take the car!!" Huang Tao reacted very much, and both of them laughed. Then take a car.

Fortunately, they came back at this time, otherwise there would be no car to the scenic spot, only a car back to the accommodation.

It's just that Huang Tao and they have to buy a new ticket. Liu Xiaolan was very envious of Chen Xing's ticket and asked, "How much is your package?" ”

"Three hundred and seven."

"See everything?"

"Well, I can go to see it once, mainly because the ticket is free, which is very attractive to me." In fact, people who only come in to see two or three attractions don't have to buy this kind of ticket, and if they choose to stay for one night, they may not need to use three hundred and seven, but the most attractive thing about this kind of ticket is that Chen Xing doesn't have to go to the visitor center with other people to buy tickets, which is really comfortable.

When Huang Tao bought the ticket, Chen Xing was sitting on a chair outside and playing with his mobile phone. When he came back from queuing up to buy a ticket, he said: "I found out that the most profitable thing in this scenic spot is definitely the ticket, you think about it, even if we get to Kanas Lake, can we not spend the money on the cruise and just take a walk by the lake?" But the money for the ticket is definitely drawn. "They can still drive in during the season, but there is only one option for tourists in the peak season, and that is to take the shuttle bus in the scenic area.

Twenty-one, Tong Suo is not bullied. Chen Xing can go directly to the old village and wait for them to come back, but they have waited until now, so let's join them.

So a few people took the car to the Kanas Lake scenic spot and drove the car back to the old village. It is very close from Kanas Lake to the old village of Tuva, only two kilometers, and when they come here, it is time for dinner, and many people come out of the homestay to eat, so there are many tourists.

Now that almost all of Kanas' attractions are closed, visitors have to go back to their accommodation, and many people who come here from out of town will never miss out on what it's like to sleep in Kanas for a night.

So people from all over the world are now together. Liu Xiaolan stopped the car at the door of the homestay where she lived and asked Chen Xing, "Where is your room?" Chen Xing looked left and right, pointed in a direction and said, "It should be at the back of this house, let's go find a place to eat first, look at the current situation, if you don't hurry up, maybe there will be no place." Huang Tao looked at the surrounding scene, and the speed of packing up things was a little faster.

Two minutes later, he came out of the room with a power bank and said, "Let's go, let's go eat." "There are many restaurants in the scenic area, you can meet one every short walk, and many B&Bs themselves have the function of restaurants, and the owner himself is the chef.

Chen Xing can't go to such a place. So a few people found a special restaurant. After entering, Liu Xiaolan was immediately taken aback by the price.

There is a menu on the wall of the restaurant, saying that the black bar, people are clearly marked with prices, whether you like to eat or not, anyway, if you don't eat these dishes, you can go back to the B&B to eat instant noodles, instant noodles are not very expensive.

Chen Xing also looked at the price. Fried small fish is 130, braised fish is 180, large plate chicken is 180, and then the price of ordinary meat dishes is 70 a serving, which is fried meat with eggplant, fried meat with fungus, and the price of vegetarian dishes is 50, which is a dish like scrambled eggs with tomatoes.

"It's so expensive here!" Liu Xiaolan whispered. It's either that you can't afford it, or you just think it's expensive. It's okay if you change the name to a nice one, but you will know what the dish is when you look at the name of the dish, so it would be a bit too much for you to charge me 50 for a vinegared shredded potato.

Chen Xing asked them to find a vacant seat to sit down, and said: "The things here are specially transported, so it will definitely be a little more expensive than outside, plus this is a scenic spot, there is no way, don't think about the price, just eat it." Both of them had just arrived in Western Xinjiang, and Chen Xing ordered a large plate of chicken.

He really recommended this dish himself, and it tasted really good. The amount of this dish on other people's tables is good, but Chen Xing was afraid that it would not be enough to eat, so he ordered a scallion fried mutton 88, a pot of rice 30, and ordered a few bottles of beer.

The price of goods in the scenic spot can only be said to be long live. Isn't it here to spend when you come out to play?

"What's the weather like in Hunan right now? Is it warm? ”

"It's lukewarm now, it's very comfortable." The weather in western Xinjiang is still in winter, but many provinces in the interior are in spring, and the temperature is about 20 degrees Celsius, you can wear whatever you want in this kind of weather, you can go out with short sleeves without fear of the wind, or you can wear a jacket, windbreaker or something.

After drinking a few glasses of wine, Huang Tao talked about the problem of comparative philosophy.

"Isn't life just for happiness, I'm balancing the relationship between spirit and material now, I think it's good to come to Xijiang, Kanas, here can relax my spirit, so that I don't live for material things every day." Chen Xing nodded and said: "Yes, I think the spirit is a string, the more nervous and uneasy, the tighter this string will collapse, or you need some time to relax and relax, travel is really good, where have you been before?" ”

"No, we used to study in Yanjing, and after graduation, we went back to our hometown."

"So we feel that your work is really good, and you can enjoy it, and you can earn money to support your material life."

"Actually, sometimes I'm anxious." Photographers are not so easy to make money, even top photographers, there are no other well-known artists to make money, Chen Xing can buy a house in Chengdu by signing a contract with a travel website, which is regarded as a capitalist's investment in his future.

Although the photography website has been launched, only three works have been sold until now. It's okay to ensure the comfort of life and travel, but this alone wants to realize Chen Xing's current ideals...... Buying a manor house is almost impossible.

Therefore, Chen Xing is also actively looking for opportunities to make a lot of money. After walking for so long today, the physical consumption was serious, Chen Xing had eaten all the things he ordered, and Chen Xing also asked the boss to add a piece of noodles, the taste was really good, and I always felt that it tasted better than what I ate at Kony's wedding before.

Then it's time to drink. Is Usu so easy to get drunk? He had only drunk a bottle of wine, and he felt that his whole body was not cold, and he looked at things in a very warm and charming atmosphere.

However, Chen Xing soon found that he was just immersed in a chatting atmosphere, and when the dinner was over and the three of them walked out of the door, they found that they were not drunk at all, walking steadily, and thinking clearly.

The dusk in Kanas is so beautiful. It was very late in the western frontier, and they had eaten that meal for a long time, talked for a long time, and when they came out, it was almost eight o'clock.

But the sun hasn't completely set yet. The twilight of dusk is as quiet as a beam of starlight, and the residual sunlight almost makes people feel the temperature, but soft, and when facing the sunset, you always feel that a big sister-like woman is smiling and watching you.

Chen Xing shook the camera in his hand.

"I'll take a picture of you?" The two readily agreed that an internationally award-winning photographer would be a fool not to take pictures of the two of them.

Taking portraits in the dusk may be the best photographic work for many photographers, it is very easy to shoot, and it does not pick the appearance of the model, as long as the figure can be slightly in harmony with the surrounding things, the film can be produced.

After they stood up, Chen Xing glanced at the viewfinder and said.

"This dusk is good, it stretches the love of both of you." Liu Xiaolan drank the wine and blushed, but after hearing Chen Xing's words, she got closer to Huang Tao.

Chen Xing pressed the shutter. The specific appearance of the two cannot be seen in the lens, but the feeling of love appears in the photo like a story, although the background is the setting sun, their love is like the rising sun.
