The charming autumn afternoon, watching the lazy Xu warm sunlight, so I just want to be left to their own self. Can not remember how long it did not let themselves changed, look at the desire of an Nabu Zhu Yuan-fei, grasslands, snow-capped mountains, and running a horse ... .. is so strong out. Packed luggage, and make cities thrown to the back, maybe only a short period of time, may find more beautiful from afar, so far away to have more hope.
21:00, the train opened to Suzhou. Also outside the sun goes down, the lights inside shot down the outside of the roadbed Shangming Huang Huang to two white lines stretching out to the distance to go outside, a dark, except for occasionally flashing lights in the distance. 12:00 to Xi'an, on the platform stood a moment, take advantage of this time, only more than 10 minutes to experience this ancient city. Bought chicken crossing the Chinese first roast chicken, dried meat, but taste pretty good. Drill a lot of a cave along the way, the train carriages flickering, because of relatively large number of reasons for the northwest mountains, Huangshan, the Yellow River, loess, the whole world, one yellow, in addition to days of blue outside. Is in the evening, the train passed just starting to open Phoenix Ling and Mao's family home, is this bridge. Car was also at the end, there are many children of Ben headway ran up sell apples. They cover hooks on long poles into the basket filled with Apple's cabinets. Perhaps the big mountains or the child simply because of their own kinds of fruit, where the apples are very cheap, as long as money can buy 78 two huge fruit. This is two dollars for a child in Shanghai is only cold drinks only. It tastes sour but the aftertaste is not that kind of people here are too simple and too poor a. When I asked those kids why not go to school when the children are only innocent smile. Open China's topographic map, you will find on the map from east to west, the color gradually from green to yellow, especially in the northwest one, in the glare on the map appear to be so. No shortage of Huang, Huang barren, yellow color was not the least bit of life. When to see it before it blew like a burst of dry air, as if it has hit the sand face, beaten Sheng Teng. Away from the northwest people always appreciate a look upon it, its lines, its rhythm, its poetry has been all sorts of people in a variety of forms to display too, with the exception intentionally or unintentionally, ignore its desolation, its brutality, its silence.

Small lamas in the rugged mountain road, engaged in their own homework - knock long head, each time throwing himself on the ground are stirring up smoke and dust, the Department has been in the chest of the apron can not see color. You have only witnessed kowtowing can really appreciate the five bodies to bid for land is a tribute to how much can you understand where the word contained in reverent faith. When we turn an entire temple is the sunset, sitting opposite the sun on the slopes of the Buddha from the temple watching the sun a little to recede on the golden dome. Dusk slowly enveloped the entire valley, mountain at the foot of daxia quietly flashing the light sparkling off, the distant silhouette began to blur, looking across the valley, scattered among a large community buildings in the construction phase, the hearts gradually breeding a kind of never been quiet.
To leave Xiahe, gradually we have entered the pastoral areas, the first time I saw grasslands, such as yellowing of the green carpet woven into the road flanked by large tracts of uninhabited grasslands, half a day to see the 12 tents. Goats, yaks and flocks to graze in their own context, from time to time leisurely crossing of the road Duodao other side of the pasture. Grand Duo Grand Duo With the accumulation of clouds in the blue sky, low on pressure in the hills. Road is no longer rough, it straight stretch in front of distant. Looking forward to being thrown into the sky road, imagine how moved the arm into the blue sky. In October of Xiahe constitutes a beautiful picture.
