Chapter 421: Ordinary Path
The distance from Hohhot to Ordos is about 250 kilometers, which is not a problem for Heilong, and it can be completed in two days.
An hour after leaving Hoh, Qin Yuan stopped in a small town and began to purchase the supplies he needed today.
"Hello everyone, it's 9 o'clock in the morning, and it's been a while since I left Hohshi.
Since it was about 250 kilometers from here to my next destination, it took two days.
I've stayed in a hotel a little more during this time, and tonight I'm going to camp outside, so I won't stay in a hotel.
There's a desert section from here to the next city, so I'm going to camp in the desert tonight and get a feel for the desert.
You heard it right, Inner Mongolia is not only grassland, it also has deserts, and there are a lot of them, two of the four major deserts in our Dragon Country are in Inner Mongolia.
After finishing the accompaniment, it was slowly getting dark.
Originally, I wanted to walk a little more, but now that I think about it, forget it, I'll just settle down here and camp! ”
The "yellow" of the Yellow River is actually sediment, and the ancient books contain: "The Yellow River fights water, and the mud occupies its seventh", which shows that it contains a lot of sediment.
For example, the highest temperature in the south this month has reached 30 degrees, but the Inner Mongolia side is still around 10 degrees.
The total length of the Yellow River is about 5,464 kilometers, and its basin area is about 795,000 square kilometers.
The Kubuqi Desert is between Tuoketuo County and ZGEQ, and this route will cross the Yellow River in addition to the desert, so the scenery on the road should be quite good.
This tugged at his heartstrings and made the melody of the song ring in his mind.
The simple tent is easy to set up, and it can be used directly by opening it, but the disadvantage is that the space is not large enough and can only be used for sleeping.
"It's such a beautiful starry sky, I haven't seen such a beautiful starry sky since winter, and I don't know if you can see it."
Not only does it help to enhance his reputation, but it also allows ordinary people to be edified, which can be described as killing two birds with one stone, so why not do it?
He bought a little vegetables and fruits, 10 catties of beef and mutton, and also bought two barrels of five liters of mineral water, after all, it is better to be fully prepared after passing through the desert area.
Moreover, the sweet potatoes and corn roasted by this method will not be charred and blackened, and the taste is very delicious, the only drawback is that the surface will be contaminated with sand, which is inconvenient to eat.
He didn't mind copying one more song, "Will Enter the Wine. You don't see", after all, such a famous poem was copied out.
At this moment, a melody automatically sounded in his head, which couldn't help but make him immediately stop the idea of moving on.
Qin Yuan said with some excitement while taking a picture with an action camera.
Standing on the cross-river bridge, Qin Yuan couldn't help but sigh, and even recited the first two sentences of the poem "Will Enter the Wine, You Don't See" written by Li Bai.
I don't know where you grew up in your childhood, but my own childhood was spent in the countryside.
In less than ten minutes, he made the accompaniment to a new song, and the name of this new song is "Ordinary Road".
After setting up the tent, Qin Yuan didn't do anything else, but directly took out the tablet, and then used the virtual instrument to quickly operate it.
There was an indescribable sense of loneliness, looking at such a picture, Qin Yuan first filmed this scene with an action camera.
Qin Yuan sat down in the tent as he spoke, then took out the tripod, and then set up the action camera.
It has to be said that the water of the Yellow River is indeed very yellow, and it is said that the Yellow River carries 1.6 billion tons of sediment every year.
But not now, the key is that the thing I want to roast now is beef and mutton, so I definitely can't throw it directly into the sand.
"Forget it, it's hard for an action camera to reproduce the picture seen by the naked eye, I'll try to take a time-lapse to see if it's better."
For example, a pyramid tent can be used not only for sleeping, but also for heating by a fire, and then a table can be set up.
This long yellow sand is like a knife cutting when the wind blows, and the face will hurt, but this yellow sand with the sunset, the scenery is simply amazing! ”
In just a few moments, a bonfire lit up in the middle of the desert, and it looked like a boat in the middle of the ocean.
The Yellow River originates in the ancient Zonglie Basin at the northern foot of Bayankala Mountain on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, flows from west to east through nine provinces (autonomous regions) of Qinghai, Sichuan, Gansu, Ningxia, Inner Mongolia, Shanxi, Shaanxi, Henan and Shandong, and finally flows into the Bohai Sea.
If there are many people, it is completely okay to play mahjong, but now because of the terrain restrictions, Qin Yuan can only use simple tents.
Before crossing the Yellow River, all he saw was patches of green grassland, but when he crossed the Yellow River, he saw an endless desert.
It is precisely because of this that the civilization of the Chinese nation began to originate from the Yellow River.
And where we are now is the plain of the middle and lower reaches.
The first thing we have to do is to cut the meat and marinate it with light soy sauce, dark soy sauce, cumin, pepper salt, and other seasoning powders.
Qin Yuan said and took out the ten catties of beef and mutton he bought this morning, although the weather has warmed up a little now, it is still quite cold compared to the south.
One is to Baotou, pass through TMTZQ and TMTYQ, then go south to DLTQ, and finally pass through Dongsheng District to Ordos.
But where did we understand these when we were children, at that time we firmly believed in one sentence, that is, if you don't dry up, you won't get sick if you eat.
After walking about a hundred meters to the desert area with the black dragon, Qin Yuan found a place that was fairly flat, and the key was that there was a little thorn bush growing there.
Where there are thorn bushes, it means that the sand will be a little harder, so that it is easier for him to set up a tent.
Qin Yuan said as he picked up the action camera and shot at the starry sky, but found that it was difficult for the action camera to capture that kind of picture.
I heard that there are a lot of interesting things in the Kubuqi Desert, let's feel it later! ”
"It seems that I have entered the Kubuqi desert area, and I have to say that this place has a completely different scenery from the grassland in front of me!
Then he wrapped the marinated beef and mutton tightly in tin foil and buried it in a dug sand pit.
Otherwise, how can we say that the Yellow River is the 'mother river' of our Chinese nation!
And the desert I am going to pass by today is the seventh largest desert in our country, called the Kubuqi Desert.
So the meat quality of the beef and mutton bought in the morning was not greatly affected.
As he spoke, Qin Yuan rolled over from the horse, and then led the black dragon into the long yellow sand.
"It's so beautiful, this lonely and beautiful but beautiful feeling that I have never felt before.
Looking at the turbulent Yellow River, Qin Yuan immediately took out the action camera and started shooting.
As for what kind of sensation will be caused by the broadcast of these two lines of poetry he reads, it is not something he needs to consider.
There's no way to nail the ground here, so I'm going to use a simple tent that can be used just by stretching it out. ”
While digging the pit, Qin Yuan explained that it didn't take long for the pit to be dug.
After that, a fire is made on top of the pit, so that the firewood will burn the sand very hot.
"The so-called desert barbecue is to use the good thermal conductivity of sand to achieve the purpose of barbecue.
Anyway, "Preface to King Teng's Pavilion", "Fengqiao Night Park", and "Water Tune Song Head" were all copied.
Ninety percent of the sediment of the Yellow River comes from the Loess Plateau, because the soil of the Loess Plateau is loose, easy to erode and disperse, and will be lost every time it is washed away by heavy rainfall.
Of these, 1.2 billion tons flow into the sea, and the remaining 400 million tons remain in the lower reaches of the Yellow River for many years, forming an alluvial plain, which is conducive to cultivation.
"Let's make a little desert specialty food today, let's have a desert barbecue, yes, you heard it right, it's a desert barbecue!"
The method of roasting is very simple, which is to dig a pit in the mound, and then bury the corn and sweet potatoes in the pit.
Because he is now walking on a desert road, there are no villages around except for the well houses.
Qin Yuan said with emotion while riding a black dragon on the desert road.
The reason why I suddenly thought of writing this song was that I had just seen the beautiful scenery of the desert, and then paired it with the straight desert road.
So at night, only passing cars occasionally bring a little light source, otherwise it's pitch black.
The desert landscape was gone, replaced by pitch black.
Camping is definitely about finding a quiet and safe place, and there are a lot of big cars coming and going on the side of the road, so it's definitely not a no-no.
Before he knew it, he noticed that the landscape around him was beginning to change drastically.
During the salting process, we started digging a pit in the nearby sand, and this pit is our focus for today.
It is to go directly in the direction of the Kubuqi Desert, and this route will pass through Tuoketuo County and then through ZGEQ.
The Yellow River is a large river located in the northern region of China, one of the longest rivers in the world, and the second longest river in our country.
"Today, because I live in a simple tent, I can't make dinner in a tent, I can only make it on the sand."
At this time, it was already more than 5 o'clock in the afternoon, and the sun was setting, and a layer of clouds was floating in the sky, which turned into a beautiful gradient color against the background of the sunset.
You can tell from the thorn bushes that grow, but even then I can't pitch my pyramid tent.
In his own opinion, such a scene is simply a MV tailored for the song "Ordinary Road"!
So he just took a very serious shot of the beautiful scenery he saw, planning to use it as the MV of the song "Ordinary Road".
As a professional outdoor blogger, you still need to have this expertise when and where to use what equipment.
The water of the Yellow River comes up from the sky, rushes to the sea and does not return, this is the turbulent Yellow River! ”
"That's it, the place is about 100 meters away from the road, and the sand is not as loose as in the depths of the desert.
However, because the weather was very good today, when Qin Yuan raised his head and looked at the sky, he saw a sky full of stars.
"The desert is lonely, and the sun sets over the long river, this should be the kind of scene you are talking about!" Looking at such a beautiful scenery, Qin Yuan said to himself.
When the world was still in ignorance, our industrious and brave ancestors thrived in this vast land and created a splendid ancient civilization.
Qin Yuan didn't deliberately want to read the poem, but his emotions were here, and if he didn't read it, he would always feel uncomfortable.
By baking at such a high temperature, it is possible to roast sweet potatoes and corn buried in the sand.
"Fortunately, it's not windy now, otherwise I would have to eat bibimbap today, but although there is no wind, I don't plan to cook normal meals."
At the same time, it is also to better lock in the moisture in the meat, and it will be more delicious to eat when the time comes. ”
But the distance of this route is relatively far, so Qin Yuan did not choose, but walked from another direction.
Such a scenery with the endless desert is like a world-famous painting, which makes Qin Yuan stunned.
"It's not early, and before I know it, it's already 7 o'clock in the evening, and it's time to make dinner."
Looking at the surging Yellow River, I seem to see our brilliant ancient civilization glowing, and this scene is really spectacular.
He then removed the guitar from the black dragon's pannier and sat cross-legged by the campfire.
After seeing the surging Yellow River, Qin Yuan saw that it was still early, so he continued to move forward.
After doing all this, he found some dead thorns and fallen wood from passing trucks nearby, and set fire above the bunker.
All the way to Erha, not too much of a hurry, at about 4 o'clock in the afternoon, they advanced a total of 70 kilometers, and finally came to the edge of the Yellow River.
Qin Yuan said to the camera as he took out a simple tent from the black dragon's pannier.
We had to wrap a layer of tin foil on the surface of the beef and lamb, and the purpose of this was not only for hygiene.
"Hello everyone, after riding the black dragon for more than 6 hours, we have now come to the edge of the Yellow River.
I remember when we were kids, we would herd cattle and sometimes steal sweet potatoes and corn roasted from our neighbors.
After buying the things, he continued to ride the black dragon in the direction of Ordos, there are two roads to go from Hohhot to Ordos.
It's a big deal to put "Will enter the wine. You don't see" is just copied out.
"While I'm free time for barbecue, I'll sing you a new song! This song is written for you to listen to, but at the same time it is also written for myself, the name of this song is "Ordinary Road", I hope you can enjoy it! ”
When the words landed, Qin Yuan picked up the guitar, and then began to play and sing while releasing the accompaniment that he had just made not long ago.
