Si Ye had a good sleep, and when he opened the curtains and looked out the window, he finally understood why this inn was called Jianshan.
There is a whole wall of floor-to-ceiling windows, so the view is very wide at first glance. The village at the foot of the snow-capped mountains, and the Jianshan Inn is at a high position, and the towering snow-capped mountains in the distance are clearly visible.
The sun is so bright that when it falls on the top of the mountain, it can outline golden edges and shine. White light can be faintly seen on the farthest mountains, and the highest places are still covered with snow.
During dinner last night, Boss Bai told them a lot about the Haba Snow Mountain. On the way from the village to the summit, they will experience various scenery, such as forests, meadows, coniferous forests, seas of flowers, etc., and when they finally arrive at the Snow Mountain
You will feel as if you have traveled for four seasons.
But what a pity...
When Boss Bai learned that they were not going to the top, he felt sorry for them. Boss Bai knew the route they were going, so he felt that they would miss a lot of scenery.
Cheng Zhan and Si Ye didn't feel sorry. They didn't come here to climb the snow-capped mountains. Besides, there are so many beautiful scenery in the world. How can we really talk about regrets?
However, Si Ye stood in front of the window and looked at the snow-capped mountains in the distance. He was also shocked. Before, he did not understand those who traveled through time. They did not enjoy a good life, but had to go to a cold and miserable place to suffer, and their lives were also in danger.
Now he understands them a little bit.
That is a kind of power.
It is the power of longing for the world and the power of people pursuing the spiritual world.
The door opened and it was Cheng Zhan.
He got up earlier than Si Ye, and did not disturb Si Ye after he got up. Instead, he went downstairs alone to prepare supplies for the mountain and organize equipment.
Seeing Cheng Zhan come in, Si Ye waved to him fiercely, "Come over quickly and take a look."
Cheng Zhan didn't know why he was so excited. He walked to him and followed his fingers to see -
Still, his face was calm.
What to see?
Si Ye's eyes were filled with light. He turned around and looked at Cheng Zhan's face, which looked like the surface of a windless lake. He was surprised, "Can't you see it?"
"What did you see?" Cheng Zhan was confused.
Si Ye raised his chin outside, "Snowy mountains! Can't you see the endless mountains?"
"I saw it, and then what?" Cheng Zhan really didn't understand. It was just a snowy mountain. What's the excitement? It had always been there, and it didn't appear suddenly.
Besides, isn’t it the snow-capped mountains in front of you that you enter?
Si Ye was speechless looking at Cheng Zhan's appearance, "Then, don't you think it's spectacular?"
Is this person Yumu?
After Si Ye said this, Cheng Zhan understood the reason why he took the chicken blood injection early in the morning. However, his reaction was still not as exciting as Si Ye expected.
He said calmly, "Aren't all snow-capped mountains like this?"
One sentence made Si Ye really...
In the end, I can only say, "You are missing a pair of eyes to discover beauty."
Bai Xi is so handsome.
Cheng Zhan was not annoyed, but instead smiled, "Is it beautiful? If you have seen the most beautiful one, the rest will just be enough."
These words made Si Ye curious and asked where the most beautiful place was.
Cheng Zhan sighed softly, "Ancient Kunlun."
The abode of God.
That year when he went to Kunlun, it seemed as if he was suspended between heaven and earth. The peak was almost towering, surrounded by auspicious clouds all day long. When you enter the mountain, you can see the lush greenery. The plants and trees absorb the essence of the sun and moon, the holy light and rain, and grow gracefully. And
I can hear the sound of the guqin, which is like the sound of nature.
The seven-colored light can be seen above Kunlun, so dazzling and peaceful that even birds passing by can't help but stop.
Later he went to Kunlun.
Those glories were no longer there, and he could no longer feel the presence of God. A divine vein fell into the world, and the peak was no longer surrounded by colorful auspicious clouds, but white snow all day long.
Gradually, white snow covered the entire mountain range.
"Then what?" Si Ye asked.
Cheng Zhan looked at the snow-capped mountains outside the window, his eyes far away. He said, "The mountains are sinking and collapsing, and finally they have become ordinary visible peaks. Ah Ye, there is a word for "mountain can be towering", but it no longer exists.
Even the Kunlun of today is no longer the Kunlun of the past."
Even in the wilderness where he was, the mountains were as tall as ladders, truly majestic and steep.
Si Ye was startled, and an unknown feeling surged in his heart.
Maybe this was the first time Cheng Zhan called him Ah Ye, and perhaps Cheng Zhan's tone was low and deep when he said the name. Si Ye could actually feel his mood at this moment, the loneliness and desolation.
is that so.
And Si Ye also understood the reason why Cheng Zhan was not surprised when he saw the snow-capped mountains in front of him. It was like someone who had seen skyscrapers and then asked him to see a country villa. Although each had its own style, it was not shocking enough.
…
Boss Bai was very kind and even though Cheng Zhan declined, he still prepared enough supplies for them.
At the same time, the equipment for entering the mountain was gathered together.
Try to eat as much as you can with food that doesn't take up much space and can fill your stomach. Boss Bai said that you can't hunt animals on the mountain now, unlike in the past when you could hunt game or something.
But if you can pass by a stream, there will be fish wherever there is a stream, and if you are lucky, you can also find a beehive.
"I don't know if you two can catch fish. It would be better if you go into the mountains two or three months later. You can dig out fungi."
And the premise of all these encounters is on the normal route, that is, the clear main line from the village to the summit, excluding side branches, and Boss Bai has never walked where Si Ye and Cheng Zhan went.
Various materials and equipment were inventoried repeatedly, and it was noon in the blink of an eye.
Cheng Zhan and Si Ye had a quick bite at the inn and then went to Haba Village for a stroll.
In addition to the Jianshan Inn, there are other inns in the village, which are quite scattered. Si Ye and Cheng Zhan are not the only ones wandering around the village. There are many individual travelers, and judging from their attire, they all want to climb the snow-capped mountains.
.
The buildings in the village are all in Naxi style, and some villagers have set up stalls in front of their houses. They are all handicraft gadgets, which have local characteristics and will attract tourists to buy them.
Si Ye stopped in front of a stall.
In fact, it is called a stall, but in fact it is just a wooden table. The table is not big, only about one meter long. It is quite old and the color of the original wood is not visible, and it is covered with a thick layer of pulp.
There was a saffron cloth covered with a few gadgets placed on it.
There are two pendants among them. They are black and white, and they look like old objects. At first glance, they look like Wushi cards, but there are carvings on the cards. The middle looks like stars, and there are similar patterns under the stars.
, the most eye-catching thing is undoubtedly the eye in the upper right corner of the star, which is lifelike.
Si Ye held it in his hand and looked at it for a long time, but he couldn't understand the meaning of the pattern, so he asked the seller.
The seller is an elderly woman, and it is obvious that the things on the stall are not her main products. She is knitting things, using good rattan to make various storage boxes and small baskets.
Yes, your hands are very skillful.
Hearing what Si Ye said, she raised her eyes and said, "Old Zangyin, it's quite old. I don't know the pattern on it, maybe it's a totem belief or something."
Sure enough, they mainly sell hand-knitted crafts, and the rest are just a blur.
Si Ye liked it very much and happened to have two of them, so they packed them together. The seller honestly didn't ask for a high price. In her words, I didn't even know what it was, so the price was about the same.
It's really cheap. At least the carving is very heavy-duty, and it's made of a whole piece of Tibetan silver, with a primary-color leather cord. Although it's not priceless, it's really an old item.
Before leaving, Si Ye was even more generous and bought a lot of small baskets, saying they would be given to Boss Bai as a return gift.
When walking back, Si Ye hung another pendant around Cheng's neck.
Cheng Zhan didn't like wearing jewelry and was very impatient. He wanted to take it off, but Si Ye said, "Tell me, tell me, we are thousands of miles away. When we stopped at a stall, we happened to have two identical ones."
Zhuangzi, if this isn’t fate, what is it?”
This logic is really incomprehensible.
If there are two identical ones, it's probably mass production, not even unique.
But I just let the pendant hang around my neck, just as a decoration anyway.
When we were about to return to the inn, there was a tea shop. It was the only one, and it was a bit far away from the center of the village. The owner was a man. He said he was in his early forties, but looking at his weathered face, he looked like an old man.
More than ten years old.
The tea shop is small and quite simple. It just has a tent built in front of the house. There are only two wooden tables under the tent and long wooden chairs surrounding it.
The table is covered with a Naxi-style tablecloth and a coarse pottery tea set.
What they sell are mountain tea and Yunnan red. Mountain tea is more like a kind of loose tea, which is dried from local flowers and plants. The other table is full of tourists, and they drink loose tea.
Si Ye followed suit and ordered a pot of loose tea. Dianhong was not surprising to him, having drank it from Shangri-La to Jianshan Inn.
Loose tea is brewed in local clay pots. It doesn’t matter what the tea ceremony is. Just grab a handful of loose tea and throw it into the pot. Pour boiling water directly on it, put it on the table, and put two teacups on it. Free refills.
I like the bold and direct Jin Siye.
While waiting for the tea to brew, I listened to the people at the table chatting. The content of the chat was that of two groups of people. One group of people planned to go hiking tomorrow, and the other group of people had just come down from the snow-capped mountains and would rest after returning to Haba Village.
.
Those who have not climbed mountains asked for advice from those who have climbed mountains, and the conversations between several people were quite professional.
Until someone suddenly said, "When you arrive at the base camp, remember to follow the developed route and don't take side branches."
Others asked, "What's wrong?"
Maybe everyone was a little nervous when the topic turned to this aspect, and the atmosphere at the table suddenly became quiet.
Si Ye and Cheng Zhan didn't pay attention to what the table was talking about at first. It was just a group of mountaineers who were passionate about discussing which route to the summit was easier, which equipment was more professional, etc.
Until there was no movement at the other end, we mentioned the side branch of the mountain again.
Cheng Zhan glanced at the table calmly, and Si Ye also listened carefully.
The man's tone was hesitant, then he hesitated for a long time and said, "It's a bit abnormal, quite...evil."
