(A) sumdo
Early in the morning to leave the Inagi. The sumdo waiting for a train when the waves went to the collapsing temple.
Beng Bo Temple is a white temple to teach, many shag steps arranged, takes a feng shui treasure land. Beishanmianshui, there is no shelter. The morning sun shone over the ridge side of the monastery, alternating between light and shade of the smoke slowly rising. Everything is quiet, there is no time to get up? Entered the monastery, a large empty courtyard empty. Walk in only to see monks in the cooking. To see me, very graciously for me to open Dianmen.
Pushed open the heavy wooden doors, suddenly into the darkness. Only the statue before the butter lamps beating dark red light. There was a hall where a thick butter flavor, was originally done half of the butter. A person to stay in the temple, carefully looked at a Buddha statue. Or angry, or happy, or benign countenance, or terrifying in appearance, in this dark temple, suddenly have a kind of vitality. Trance for a long time before they get out Dianmen.
Lamas have also started a day's work. The main hall also repairs, the door put a lot of paint, brushes. Chatting up the ladder beside the mural, all these paintings are the monks themselves, hands-on repair. Bu they do not know the whereabouts of the old, we will be looking at the side of the painting Lama. They are painted sorcerer's dance in a mask and carrying heavy paint to the painted wooden masks. They have to concentrate on painting, I read them attentively. To time in the back is gone, only fascinating stats.
A small restaurant to eat at the roadside. From time to time ran out to see cars come with no.
BU is still the old a la carte, is still cabbage soup. I finally could not help it, "is not only the cabbage tofu soup here, ah?" Li Bin, laughing raucously with admiration seems to be the long-standing grudges Buganshengzhang, it was sound unjust, and cried. Old Bu then Hei hei giggle. Bok choy tofu soup to become another classic jokes on the road.
Car is very crowded, and finally I still have a seat. Spaced up to the towns and. Nonstop, but also got on very straight-wing. It was a small Changhe, but under Serbian seven individuals, four bales. Is still spaced. Drove all the way, but paused when the dinner. It was a very small town, a few steps on to the head.
Li Bin changed to a la carte. The sake of my throat, small temperature and specifically admonished not to put hot pepper. The boss is very surprised, and even asked three times, "chili tofu will not release them?" "Without letting go.". We are also surprised and hold on and hold chili pepper, why so surprised Do people here can not be away from the chili cook it? Li Bin at a loss for a long time, suddenly said, "I called a homemade bean curd." Help laughing, and everyone burst of laughter.
Shop little down the wall or affixed to a lot of star paintings. Remote areas is that he could have a pop element, boss over, pointing to pictures of Xieting Feng said, "I do watching this baby girl grow-jun!" This time, everyone was barely, and spray the tea table.
Although the countryside, shops, doing the dishes really well, especially letting go of the homemade chili tofu, very delicious.
(B) derong
Is still crowded in the bus, half awake for the wing between the Britain that was already eleven o'clock at night.
Close to midnight derong still noisy, a typical county in Sichuan, dance music, and the Hong Kong film shots filled the air in the early summer. The weather here has begun to heat, and the street can see girls in short skirts and short sleeve.
We like all of a sudden break into a heterogeneous, attracting a variety of vision and whispering. Bu and the small temperature to look for the old hotel, me and Li Bin guarding a lot of backpacks, standing on the bridge. The bridge was lying a few donkeys, he was next to the coming and going, a motionless, almost thought it was sculpture.
After a day of bumps, my illness worse. Feel like a float in the air, there is no little weight, the sound across all the way around the pass over, hazy, unreal. Throat, fever, feel the forehead, but it is cold cold. Little effort at all. Brain disorder, what can not think.
A drunken person, and Li Bin, talking seems to be provocative. Fortunately, there are others to stop, he was bitterly to go.
Do not know how long after a little warm they finally returned. We have settled Derong hotel, ten dollars of the hotel.
Much love to wash in hot water bath for six days to the first one to restore some of the spirit.
Given my situation, the next day rest a day, but also inquire about the way to Sun Valley matters. We're going to hear the Sun Valley, Sun Valley, tired people said. There were not too concerned about, always thought he was overcame hardships of. Very little understanding of the Sun Valley, but the holding of "a car to the Piedmont there must be way" principle, also without fear of.
Bu looked for the old Sun Valley Tourism Development Corporation who understand the situation, they will send someone up the mountain with us. It was only later realized how wise this step go.
(C) Sun Valley
Shuttle early in the morning, along the Qu Shuo river ahead. 9:00 left to the labor Bridge, Chen and Yang were (?) Them and us up the hill. Hill said that no one else, only to see an old house. They are on the go and we have arranged for room and board, of course, to resume our tickets. Asked about how long it should be that they look at us, quite some contemptuously said that at least nine bar.
Days are blue, not the slightest clouds, the sun did not stop the exposure down. Barren mountains, only a sparse number of shrubs. Three days ago, has also experienced cold Daocheng hail, here and now, bathed in California sunshine, and truly worthy of the name Sun Valley. Khan, drop by drop of the leakage, the water bottle bottomed out at once.
Started as a section of flat road, to a fixed Quqiao will start after the crosses. Is still in the sun exposure, a slope and then a slope, seems to be no end.
Out of a lot of sweat Daoba smoldering body to bring out the cold, and throat did not hurt. Almost without a break, but in the sun runaway, until you see that little shed. It was road construction workers, temporary shelter, but with a few Genmu Gun prop up a large piece of nylon cloth. There is water, two workers were cooking a pot of cabbage soup, afloat a few pieces of fat meat. Sat in their shed rest, finally being able to escape hot sun. Are on the bed (a row of wooden shops ride Chase) opened a window, window embedded a terrace opposite one. In the bare mountains, the green is especially striking Napian. This film was eye-catching freeze-frame in the cut of the window.
The workers eat lunch at, but very simple dishes. "No way, everything should be back to, only a simple little better."
To leave the shed, take a moment to the next on the possession of the village. Entrance to the village began to have large areas of shade, the mountain streams have been cited down in the ditch where the merry stream, bringing a cool place. Here is really nice view.
Chen followed them to a fellow home and take a break. One would not want to go into the living room of the. A typical Tibetan house, wood columns, wood floors. Wide spacious spacious room, very dark, but cool. The owner took out a thick leather cushions on the floor, sitting above, relying on pillars, fully relax your feet, especially comfortable. Master poured butter tea for us, but also come up with a lot of walnut entertain us. Although the language is different, but the kind of simple and honest smile, than all the words.
Everyone found a comfortable position, sitting on cushions on the chat. Are young people, soon there will be no misunderstanding. Chen strongly urged us to rent horses, even if people do not sit, you can pack things. Also said that just passed the Long March is the first step, the real climbing is just beginning. However, for our strength, they have not underestimated. Old Bu asked us whether or not to ride, I see Li Bin, Li Bin, see me, say not to. Decided to only rent a horse pack package.
We all depend on the not want to go outside the sun is more dazzling, the opposite seems all the mountain was covered a layer of fog. All stand in the room to heat the outside. Leaking from the roof of the window the sun come in, play a round beam, it illuminates the stove go out the top. I remember a lot of photos were shoot this beam, beam-ri is the ramming yogurt Tibetan women and children fetch water carrying a Tibetan woman, or the camera Han Xiao of the Tibetan women.
Unconsciously, over a three-point, do not walk, you can only sleep in the mountains. So keep up your spirits and left the shelter.
Authorities were looking for people to rent a mule to the village (the village do not think understood Mandarin, after the approaches have been made to help the busy central case), for a long time have not come back. Said to be 61 Children's Day, the villagers have come to see the school programs. Li Bin, simply climb, the United States and the United States slept. It was only a mule to start the real journey. Out of the village is a great downhill section is very steep, surface dust, walking a few steps on the slippery about to begin since I cursed shoes.
And then all the way up the mountain. Mules and guides lead the way in front, while the trace disappeared. Li Bin, and the small temperature and followed them. Know that if they are forced to follow the speed of a short while it will get on the ground tired of. Therefore, it has to maintain its own frequency, slow, but persistent. Actually do not feel tired. Are not worried that landed too far away, the old Bu they also brought a walkie-talkie is really fully equipped.
At first I was the last one, gradually more than the central cases of them, gradually heard the jingle of bells of the mule.
Hill has been caught in two years to go, a lot comfortable. Sun block in the mountains outside, unlike the earlier period of sweat pour off you see waves of Venus. Here is no longer bare to begin full of green. Stream is also one side, stubbornly persists. Do not drink a lot of water, breathing rate is also very gentle, tired legs, it is not to insist. Has been taking has not asked how far the sky is still bright. In the dark until it is absolutely impossible to the.
The mountains, the mountains, on the. All the thinking is centered on this word. A glimpse of the scenery all around between the rush by. Since in the end is suddenly wondering what to do. Li Bin said in Inagi mind "to that walk," can not help but smile. Have always believed that an infinite beauty in the dangerous mountain peak. Now, the way to the dangerous mountain peak is even more fame. That scenery is the King but the non-King of the.
Do not know how long gone, the sun's footsteps gradually moved to the mountains, mountains, wind cool, want to add clothing. Went to a vacant, we decided to stop to rest, but also the time to replenish their energy. Chocolate, ham sausage, but also ate hard tack. For the first time to eat, feeling pretty good, there is no imagined terror, but if the day to take this as a staple, but also really can not stand. Ate about the same time, Chen that they will come up. Right again resumed their progress.
People have already tired. Small Winn said I Mianwurense, adding that had never seen such a white face, and some were frightened me, asking me to does not matter. Time of fatigue has been no response, and not feel exhausted, the only remaining point of thinking is to continue to climb.
Tian Sean down, the wizard does not see that we have insisted on riding, riding up on his own, and with our food, walkie-talkies, and headlights.
Elevation should be very high, and Li Bin started to respond, walking behind. Old Bu accompanied him. And Chen then they were pulled farther away. Unconsciously, they stepped into a rhododendron forest, can be seen faintly pink flowers covered with branches. Did not dare to go too scattered, and small temperature will be found a place to sit, wait for them. Looking out across the woods, only the horizon, the last ray of Hongxia, hidden into the Cang-blue twilight. The sky began to emerge No. 1 star, stars the second and third stars. . . Li Bin, they caught up with him and rest a bit to go. See clear roads, only dark. Then they stepped into a large pine forest in quite some flavor of reaching not see five fingers. Are anxious, do not know what will finally hear the voice of Chen, "move forward after this piece went to the woods." Walk in the dark, but also worried at the foot of the roots of disorder.
Groping, and finally out of the woods. One looked up to see the distance a star lights (in fact, only a candle), then heart really can not use language to describe the excitement, about the floating at sea for a long time people see the first lighthouse feel the same. God, ah, finally arrived. Regardless of anything, it rushed directly on the light (of course, when really strategic location, was powerless to change a). And then they sit beside the fire, do not want to move. Time has passed and 9:00.
There are many points of this accommodation cabins. That while almost no one is up, also empty of. Even the staff are down, only one Retention Tibetan grandfather guarding the house. Hill did not eat, but save a bit of rice and canned vegetables, then come back from the foot of the mountain. Fire is wang, no lights, only candles lit Jigen. Our guide sat on the fire side, is said to-day has not yet dark when he arrived.
We can rest, but they were still washing the Central Shuaguo son for us to prepare dinner. While doing, while complaining.
People always say that outside the city yearning for freedom. But the real duty-bound to the person out of the city and how much? Enjoyed, and hard too, and still be gentle return to the city. Even if depression is found, an excuse even though the opportunity to want to go out holiday Ye Hao, Ye Hao a short holiday, but after all, just a holiday Bale. But all they have to put this as a job, painful work. Life down are equal, and this sentence will always be a lie.
Rice soon enough. A pot of Mei Cai Kou Rou. Break down and felt particularly hungry, eat a lot.
It lived in a wooden hut, but capped with a back mattress on the floor, and the quilt, thick stack, it should be enough for warmer. The room was dark, only lit two candles in the corner. Really tired, and regardless of ants fleas cockroaches mouse, a lie down to sleep.
A night under the rain, rain drowsily heard the voice of the roof. The morning, day, or gloomy. No peaks next to the thick fog in the inside. There are morning and steamed bread to eat gruel. Chen bread is a craft, although the yellow, and will sell well, but taste good.
Not far out of the camp, that is, large tracts of dwarf Rhododendron, it is in full bloom when the Chun-chun's purple, filled the entire valley. To Xin'an with (?) Ranch is not difficult to walk the road, slope is not large, but after yesterday's runaway, do not have any strength in them. Filling of the two legs like lead, like Yi Tai on the sour pain. However, they can not be reconciled Kongshouerhui had to adhere to a set teeth. Walked, and is pretty used to it, there is no beginning so uncomfortable.
Our guide is clearly in bad shape, with a ranch on the Xinan fell to the grass, do not know the altitude reaction or sickness (although the possibility of the latter big doubts), there are difficulties in communication, nor know how to Office. However, the wizard is very professional ethics, refused to go back, the result is in our ranks finale of the. Beyond it, there are large areas of rhododendron bushes, covered with a flower. Bits and pieces of white, pink, red and green dotted pair of the 10000. Meadow, or brown, with only some faint green. Coupled with a gray sky, a bit losing their leaves.
They walked, they began to hail. Experienced a number of occasions, now hail is a stride. Wear a hat, taut zipper, lowered his head to continue to move forward. The snow line on the side. Climb up a hill, the wizard said that measures must be climbed over to see Jiro in front of the mountains, but the snow in front of road have been sealed, and about 100 meters. Li Bin, try to go a few steps, deep snow. Phi landslide on the snow, smooth like a big carpet, do not know what the following, do not know how much slope in the end. No you can explore the depth of the stick around and no trees. While the opposite hillside Daoshi no snow, you can turn from there in the past. So we decided to prefer to go, it would not go to adventure.
However, when look at down the road, I can not help but gasped. There is no road, just a very steep slope and, most crucially, it was a Suidan Po. To go a step further and began sliding down finally calmed down, we looked at the foot of the rolling stones all the way down, until the invisible. Scared to moved down, take a step, sliding step. Fortunately, the old BU has always been timely and Hold me back, finally did not fell and badly beaten. Later, the old BU, I shake the two legs. Then the period of uphill do not know how kind they are to climb to go, thinking in a very chaotic state. Until the climb up the ridge slowly awake, aware of their speed, and that, but at an altitude of approximately 4,500 meters. Very severe asthma, heart and even more severe, half a day off to calm down slowly.
Looking around, one side is the Spirit Mountain Zuo Zuo, snow peaks when the clouds disappeared the next. Looking back, Tsering Gyatso suddenly appeared in front of us, Yihong green lake, quietly lying between two mountains, there is no trace of variegated. Tsering measures not imagine what will happen in this highly. Under the blue sky, beautiful and moving. The distance the sun shone through the clouds, a few diffuse beam injection. Yamaguchi wind was so strong, and quickly descending, according to the wizard's argument, as long as three minutes can go to Jiro measures of. However, this three-minute walk at least a quarter of an hour of our. Everyone to recognize the "three" in the dialect is "a few" a synonym.
Jiro Gyatso and Tsering Gyatso is entirely different. She is nearly circular, enclosed in a small valley. Dark green, he also brought a bit blue, a little melancholy and mysterious. If Tsering Gyatso is a naive romantic girl, Jiro measures is a closed-door retreat of the philosopher. Members seem to have no interesting approached the lake, on the slopes found a sheltered place to sit down, start lunch. Ask the wizard measures to pro-long the way, the wizard pointed at both ends of a section of cliff between the slopes, slope of at least sixty or seventy degrees, everywhere khaki-colored, without any trace of plant growth. Approached only to find that part of the slope or a road, people stepped out of the path two feet wide. Effort to climb, rest when the first gain a firm footing. Looking back, can only see less than five meters of the road, a yellow line, that is, measures of the dark blue of Jiro. Add the energy, effort to restore a lot, there are costs to climb the slope Actually, I'm a great enthusiasm.
Got up the hill, but also saw Tsering measures, this perspective different. Blue sky clouds reflection in the lake, the lake becomes a mirror of alternating blue and white.
Wizard made up his mind not with us abuse, roughly tell us the direction of measures to pro-long, they dropped us and went looking for a rest.
Fortunately, the beginning section of the road to go, however, discovered only after climbing a hill to the road again Yakou snow did not last long, and only twenty to thirty meters look. Or on the next to the valley and then to go around from the opposite hillside. Li Bin, go on. Small gentle way to say old-Bu decided to test the waters. During that road is clearly not good to go, looking at the small temperature along the melting underwater for a while, climb over a protruding rocks, and then climb up the soil about one meter high wall, and then skip that part of the same as the snow kangaroo . That this is no knee in the snow. France looked at him I began to walk back down, I'll pick on a single piece of stone. Old Bu desperately to cheer me, saying that he was absolutely no problem. Looked at him then vowed appearance, but also put the life and death consigned to oblivion. Way are being soft snow soaked the soil, it is easy to skid. Carefully, and finally reach the piece of smooth stone. However, over stones, or slip a bit when the old BU promptly stabilize me, but forced under the water bottle hanging on a backpack on the roll down, bouncing a few times in the snow completely omitted. I suffered a scare. However, there is no escape route, only forward left. Climbing wall is also a difficult period of earth, feet are not real, simply not have access to strength, finally pulling even with the old BU Eurya pull me up. The rumble, but also had snow. Zhe Xiake entirely my own, to fall in the end of the roll all the way to go also. Small temperature on the opposite side crying and told me to tread his footprints as far as possible to run fast, look inside the body dumped. Took a deep breath, began to run. Deep snow, even after two people did not step on stampede real, continues to subside. Did not dare stop, one quickly with the support of the leaps. Actually did not run hard, and even some snow on foot to enjoy the moment, a kind of Shenqingruyan feeling. It seems the height of 4,500 meters, I do not have any effect.
Running over, quickly shaking off the snow shoes. I then wore only a very thin slacks.
After the road is like gone. Li Bin, arrived early, holding a walkie-talkie to tell us where the location. Measures is a long-standing pro-glacial lake, the entire lake had been ice-covered live, revealing the color of water in some places, far looked like a white canvas, inadvertently cast a gray stripes. Is surrounded by black, white and gray composition of the world, not a little angry. Look at the position, Jiro measures should be on below. Perhaps the water Jiro measures is to go on from here.
Here are today to the highest place, followed by the way is downhill. Are a long way to walk through rhododendron forests, Tsering measures implicit in time between when the mosaic is now. Li Bin and wizards walk in front of the three of us, eager for beauty shoot without a rest. Began to rain, in the spending of being lost, climbed a hill. Listen to Li Bin remote control, geo-river line, out of the rhododendron forest. Today, all the way near misses, the last time down a fall down solidly. Knee smashes, and seeping blood, his right foot are twisted.
Under the rain the more the greater the monastery is surrounded by a shelter from the rain looked no place. Tsering measures before that, there is no sunlight, also lost its charm, bleak. We must come to that one. There is a road filled with large stones, rainy day jumping on a rock head, not a funny thing. Look at small lake in the mountains, walking up and how they seem to have to go not finish.
Finally returned to the residential land is already exhausted. Sitting beside the fire roasted clothes, the rain also keep the next. Suspected to be because we are on the mountain shouting, angered the gods. Chen did not know where did you get a small calf meat, in the shabu shabu. Authorities were said to eat a small calves will go to hell for.
Up days is still gray. Wing of the shuttle bus to get around the 2-point after, you must arrive in time before that bridge work. Rejected the horse and sprained Department has not hurt, and it is all the way down the mountain. The key is hard work for so long, can not be Wanjiebubao.
Chen them to follow us down the mountain, no one, they hang out in the mountains is also boring.
Daoshi all the way down smoothly, the next village to guide pro-family sat for a while. Butter tea is a natural unavoidable. Li Bin, from a bowl fish out a black thing, the beginning thought it was tea, you look closely, flies. We are all an air of composure, reminding us of scenes yet to be seen the clean bowl of butter tea to drink. Our tea is from the same pot pour out.
Fear not keep up with cars, out of that part of the valley road, several boys were Beizhao Bao runaway. One by one they began to also see bow Ji Zou, after not see a silhouette. I Yangzong simply slowly, the central case is that such vehicles would be us. To the bridge, it really car waiting for us, is said to have been waiting for more than twenty minutes of the. Finally completely relaxed, and finally back to the modern.
(D) back to Zhongdian
Derong near Yunnan, Zhongdian, contrary to go a little easier. However, when we reached the bus station (bus station, if that place can be called so) of the time, could not help but dumbfounded. Days have not yet light, the driver did not come, but a minibus had been choked, and all people everywhere you can plug the head, leaving only out of the driver's seat. While the vehicle is filled with people, apparently there is no way to squeeze onto the car. Pakistan out of the car is not as long, one after another up several trucks, sitting side by side, people swarmed quickly away in a truck person. The remaining people who depend on the surface. A bunch of people all around the driver bargain, until both sides accept the leave. Everything step by step, orderly, it seems this is the scene of almost daily.
This time the car ride very comfortable, although they are still very much Britain can finally not have to jostle to Jiqu a. Along the way is pretty smooth, though sometimes have to push off section of the road, but no much time wasted. Three boys are doing the dream, you can watch the World Cup went to Zhongdian, the Chinese team's first game.
Vehicle and the sub is more rural, much can be seen Nazuo bridge connecting Yunnan and Sichuan, Yunnan, across the river is a benzilan of. At this time, way off. A large landslides from the mountains slide into the river bank has been. Parked next to a few bulldozers. But no persons working. The workers reportedly have been not been paid for six months, so strike. Others say that the workers get out of their own. Broken yesterday, and today the opening of estimates is not possible. Only to return the child is more rural, do intend to. See a police car roaring past on the road.
From the child can cross the river to a more rural benzilan. And from benzilan ride to Zhongdian.
However, there is a crossing of people actually working time. People are not crossing at noon. Off to one side of the shop had to eat first. A TV but no signal, but also because television is not the person to go to work at noon. 3 boys under bored, had no choice but to pass the time sleeping.
Finally stay up two points, down to the ferry. Ferry is not wide, and only one ship, and is based on manpower. Jiang, Wang pulled up the root surface of rope, marine pulley hanging in the ropes. Crossing time, pull the other rope, re-use of water, the ship on to the other side easily. A very novel approach.
Benzilan climb in the street looking for a TV in a hotel, they refused to sit still. Afternoon, no business, the boss make up a table for playing mahjong, explain the sound of drums which come from the television; mahjong sound of cries coming from the mahjong table, Chuan; excitement, disappointment, sigh, suck down air-conditioning is from our sent out to the table. A variety of sounds mixed together, all listen to all of the, the idea is no problem.
0 compared with the results of two frustrating has long since left the bus, and had no choice but to find somewhere car to Zhongdian. The scenery on the road is very beautiful. It is sunset, when the genial sunshine slanting to shine on the valley, it illuminates the vast green fields, the cast layer of golden brown. White Tibetan stone room is also bathed in this golden yellow in the showground. Che Xingzhi Napa lake, meadow, oxen and horses, Tibetan stone room, pear, barley planes, Baita, in the sweeping views of the mountains.
Recall and hare in the sunset days of Songzanlinsi other, as if separated for a long time. I actually returned, turn full circle back to the place.
(The end)
