I put on my clothes and walked out of the house.

The temperature difference between day and night here in Qinghai is relatively large, especially when we live by the river. We don’t feel anything during the day, but it gets cold and it’s very humid at night.

But the man standing under the moonlight unbuttoned his shirt, revealing his bracelet and abdominal muscles with bare shirt. The bright moonlight illuminated the shiny top of the head, like a bright lamp.

If you have such a unique hairstyle, there is no other person here except the monk.

"I said, "But Monk, you don't sleep in the middle of the night, why are you standing here? You're still wearing so cool?" I walked out of the house and came to the open space outside.

"Amitabha, why didn't Master Chen sleep so late and ran out to talk to the monk?" While talking to me, the monk kept squinting his eyes and looking up at the sky with a smile.

I have seen his eyes widened, with peach blossom eyes. It looks very popular and bright.

But he always likes to squint his eyes and smile.

It gives me the feeling of this monk hiding a knife in his smile.

"I can't sleep. I probably woke up by your bald head." I said with a wicked smile.

Le Qun touched his head: "Is it so bright?"

"So what are you doing?" I didn't want him to leave with the topic, so I asked.

"Look at the moon," he said.

"You are not as leisurely and elegant as someone." I said, sitting next to him and watching the moon with him.

It is vast and has no tall buildings.

The sky is bright and the moon is clear and the stars are shining.

A magnificent Milky Way carries countless stars like a distance.

It has been a long time since I saw such a beautiful Milky Way.

When I was young, I was only in the first and second grades. At that time, I had no mobile phones, computers, and there was no such serious light pollution.

What I like most is to run with my friends to an old tree by the pond not far from my grandfather's house after school. From there, you can always see the most gorgeous sunset, until it is dark, and stars are spreading in the sky.

We sat on the tree branches with thick thighs and looked at the stars, and identified which one was the twelve constellations and which one was the seven constellations of the Canglong.

Later, I never saw such a beautiful starry sky again.

I have never seen those friends again.

"The moon can always give us some special reminders." The monk Leke suddenly said.

"Tip?" I looked up at the light.

The moonlight shines on the open space under the hillside, next to it is the Overturned River. From here, you can still vaguely see Qinghai Lake.

The moonlight reflects the shimmering waves on the lake, and the river winds and flows into Qinghai Lake.

We are located in Sun and Moon Mountain.

The so-called Sun and Moon Mountain is two hillsides, one is Sun and the other is Moon Mountain. Because one can be shined by the sun and moon light, the other cannot. Just like the sun and the moon alternate in turn, it is called Sun and Moon Mountain.

The two mountains of Sun and Moon are like an arm, embracing the river.

In this Feng Shui, it is the golden water acupoint.

It is a good Feng Shui treasure land.

The location of Sun and Moon Mountain can be regarded as a tomb.

And where the moonlight shines is Mingtang...

etc!

Tomb!?

I stood up and saw the monk's smile next to me, and I understood what he meant: "You mean this is actually a large ancient tomb? The Li Yong family guarded here seems to be guarding the mountain.

In fact, it has been guarding the tombs for generations, right?”

"Amitabha, the little monk is just looking at the moonlight."

I saw that he didn't seem to want to say anything, so I said tactfully: "Then I'll go back to sleep."

"Good night."

I lay on the bed and did not fall asleep immediately. Instead, I remembered what Yurumeng told us about the settlement of Li Yong's ancestors here.

According to Yu Ru Meng, Li Yong's ancestor was Princess Wencheng and his relatives stayed here when they returned.

There are two possibilities here. One is that Li Yong's ancestor was old and settled here.

The other is that Li Yong's ancestors actually stayed here for some purpose.

Considering his surname, I think the most likely thing is that the tomb he guards is the tomb of the descendants of the Li family.

This reminds me of a person - Li Daozong.

Li Daozong was the younger brother of Taizong Li Shimin. He once accompanied Princess Wencheng as the leader of the marriage mission.

Later, in his later years, Li Daozong was wrongly exiled and died on his way to Xiangzhou because he was wrongly accused of participating in the rebellion of Fang Xuanling's son Fang Yiai.

But I have read some unofficial history, saying that Princess Wencheng is probably Li Daozong's daughter.

After Li Daozong died, he asked someone to move his corpse to the Western Regions, hoping to see Princess Wencheng from there.

But this is completely unfounded unofficial history.

Although it has no basis, it is not without reference value.

Considering Li Yong's surname, I think it is possible that Li Yong was not originally named Li, but was later given the surname Li.

Judging from his appearance, Li Yong is not a purely-bred Han Chinese genes, but also has the blood of Tibetans.

Therefore, it is more likely that the surname is given.

In ancient times, it was an honor to give surnames. Generally, only those who made significant contributions to the court would be given surnames.

Then why was Li Yong given his surname?

The biggest possibility is to commend his family for their contribution to guarding the tomb here.

However, it was said that the Li Yong family stayed here for about 641 years, while Li Daozong died in 650 years.

It is unreasonable in terms of time.

Unless—there is another world in the tomb they guard!

I fell into a deep sleep as I thought about it.

When I woke up again, it was the next morning.

After breakfast, I secretly called Erpang and the others out and told them what I thought.

Then in the morning we went on a field trip on the grounds of going around.

We secretly brought Luoyang shovel and sampled soil, and Erpang brought the compass and his notes.

After verification, we can confirm that there is an unprecedented tomb below Sun and Moon Mountain.

"What do you mean? Do we want to get to the tomb?" Erpang asked me.

"No need. I'm just thinking about what Li and their generations are protecting. At noon, we can explore the whim. If it has nothing to do with Shang Qingyun and the affairs of Han Buddhism, we should not cause trouble."

"It's OK."

After inquiring, Erpang and I packed up our things and returned to Li Yong's house.

At noon, Li Yong bought some ingredients from outside and made a hearty lunch with us.

I have to say that Li Yong’s craftsmanship is very good.

After three rounds of wine, five flavors of dishes.

I started to talk, "By the way, brother Li Yong, why do you have to stay here all the time? How inconvenient is it? Isn't it better to buy a house in a big city like Xining?"

We have been very familiar with Li Yong these two days.

It's different from the tense atmosphere when I saw Yourumeng.

Although Li Yong is a principled person, he is very hospitable and can chat with us.

As a conversation after dinner, he also said everything: "I'm going to tell you, my mother and I lived here in the early years. She didn't like to go to lively places. Later, she was in poor health and needed rest. So we didn't consider moving.

My mother passed away last year.

I want to mourn her for three years. As for what happens in the future, I will talk about it later."

"What a filial son." The monk Leku smiled.

I photographed him and told him not to talk nonsense: "Have your family lived here for generations? I've been looking at the house for many years."

"Yes, we have been here since our ancestors. I heard that there is the soul of Princess Wencheng here, and they will always stay here and accompany that virtuous princess."

I said, "It sounds like your ancestors admire this Princess Wencheng very much."

"Yes. My ancestors have always been proud of serving the princess. It is rumored that this princess is the incarnation of Guanyin Bodhisattva."

"Then you have no other legends?"
