Early morning, known for Heavy-arid northwest region famous for sweet rain. Tianshui rain is not large, very dense.
The most common route is the corn crop, and through the windows, rain Hsi distinctly to hit the roadside corn ground together into a Road in a clean, long leaves of corn were in the rain, a slight breeze blew at the swing, sometimes provoked numerous spray.
The brick farmhouse is the kind of simple combination of soil and lime, which is northwest of the portrayal of rural people are not wealthy. 32 middle-aged farmer sitting on the threshold of their front of the house, the taking out his pipe, watching the rain kept underground, one thought has been a long absence, the rain nourished the agricultural land has long been stirring up the hearts of a happy melody.
Although it rained, Weihe riverbed is still large tracts of the dry. Unknown distance on the slopes of the terraces covered with layers of Diego Diego Unfortunately, green is very small. Living in such adverse conditions, why brewing so distant, ancient, vicissitudes of history culture?

In Zheliang to Maijishan car, there are two self-help travelers like me. One is the name of the girl who,
From Xi'an graduate students, let us describe how she has it: looks very smart, the nose is a big dot, a bit like a squirrel, eyes were thieves Thac Xixi, turning up and that快啊for fear of inadvertently fall out of orbital, triumphant, when will you come to a Cantonese opera (her mother is Cantonese). This small, very clever girls daring down, she said a few days before travel, Lanzhou, Wuwei, Dunhuang time, sleep for two nights, the rest are spent in the night on board.
Another simple and honest the big boys, Korean, studying in Beijing, Chinese very well.
8:30's circumstances to reach Maijishan, walking forward a few hundred meters to the foot of the mountain. "Good big a bamboo shoot!" I had a sigh make small smile rock with laughter. Misty mountains in the surrounding green compared to the mountain Maijishan cylinder there is no vegetation, Chuanzao in more than 100 caves on the hillside the neatly divided into several layers, This festival coincides with bamboo shoots on the spot.
Even in the foot of the mountain, then the biggest of three Oliver is still clearly visible.

The Plank Road connecting to navigate among the various caves, you can see the country from age 16 until the Ming and Qing dynasties of the statues in various works. And China, most of the rest of the caves, as advocates of Buddhism during the reign of the Northern Dynasties Xianbei contribution to the work up; in art, and Yungang, Longmen caves of various different is that most of the statues Maijishan denomination lean, clothes thin, shoulder muscles are rich, but works less painted sculptures. This is mainly because the former after the Sui and Tang dynasties after processing,
Sui and Tang dynasties known as the rich state of the United States, in the painting is also on a big level. Maijishan Grottoes reflects the aesthetic characteristics of the Northern Dynasties nomads in order to thin lean for the United States, not yet luxurious.
Other Lux, King Kong statue, with the statues of ancient Western Regions and the Tianzhu features, showing that due to the prosperity of the ancient Silk Road trade, making arts and spread into Central Asia Tianshui.

We always have to slow down to wait for her. She is Textile University, and read more Fayette dressed Perhaps her professional help.

Left Maijishan, small, and South Korea have been Fuxi Miao people are ready to go, I said farewell to the station of their own.
Lanzhou, the train three hours late ad nauseam, really want to know who those perpetrators and dereliction of duty is how to deal with.
The hard-seat train ride pukuai is so-called "coolie train", the passengers are mostly poor people that the bottom of society, there is a small business, there are Tuoerdainv to see relatives, there is little idle youth, there are of low-income employees. You can say that they are dirty: eat at least one ground melon seeds shell, adults and children in the compartment holding the corridor pee, or the casual way to the ground and spitting, hum nose, and sometimes you can actually surprised to find a Han dynasty sleep in the baggage rack. Although this is sufficient to give each the same "gentleman" to hear of discoloration, but no one should blame them, if there Jigechouqian With pass into the upper strata of society - diplomas, wearing brand-name clothing, the Department of the noble tie, giving her a meticulous shiny example of her hair, who would do this?
The phenomenon of poverty is the biggest dirty, why do so between rich and poor regions and the poor? Why such a big difference between civilization and cultural quality of it? Done in this respect, what matter? Development of the west is a good thing, can not be the pockets of those corrupt officials Zhong Bao ah.
