Standing on the top of the mountain and looking at the Aerzhai Grottoes, the entire mountain is like a hornet's nest, densely covered with large and small caves, just like Ali Baba's caves that contain countless treasures and secrets, waiting for people to come and visit.
The Buddha murals in the caves are paintings that carry the rise and fall of a nation's history. In Zhuang Rui's eyes, they are far more precious than Alibaba's treasures.
"Zhuang Ruian replied, just look at these grottoes, why do you live here?"
This place is not very far from where Timur and others gather, so there is no problem in coming here as a doctor. However, Timur and others, who have been familiar with this place since they were children, really don't see what is worth studying here.
Zhuang Rui laughed when he heard this and said: "Timur Anda, a lot of text and picture materials of the Yuan Dynasty are preserved here, which is very helpful to my learning, so I want to stay here for a few days..."
Zhuang Rui's words were not deceiving Timur. He had two main purposes for staying here. The first was, of course, hoping to restore the aura in his eyes within a few days. For this unexpected and mysterious Alzhai Grottoes
Conduct a comprehensive survey.
As for the second purpose, Zhuang Rui prepared for the worst. If the tombs of Genghis Khan or the emperors of the Yuan Dynasty were not found here, Zhuang Rui was going to use the Mongolian paintings left over from the Arzhai Grottoes to deeply explore the social structure and social structure of the time.
The rise and fall of the Golden Family is used as the basis for his doctoral thesis.
Zhuang Rui has been stubborn since he was a child. Although he usually laughs and has no airs, he will always stick to the things he is determined to do, and he will not look back even if he hits the wall.
Therefore, even if this scientific expedition in Mongolia yields nothing, he will not change the direction of his doctoral research and re-choose the Dunhuang culture that is currently being hyped.
Although the Aerzhai Grottoes are far less grand than the Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang, as we walked around, it was already dusk as the sun set in the west. The bright red and fiery sunset shone on the grottoes that were riddled with holes, adding a few more details to it.
A mysterious color.
Out of the original intention of protecting the grottoes, there were no electric lights in each grotto, so even though Zhuang Rui wanted to stay a little longer, he had no choice but to withdraw.
Timur was indeed very familiar with the lamas in the temple outside the Arzhai Grottoes. After going to the temple with a few words, he arranged for Zhuang Rui's board and lodging for the next few days. As for the expenses, Zhuang Rui donated them at will.
A few incense money will do.
The lamas in the temples here are all from Tibet. They are considered Tibetan Buddhism and have not been contaminated by the copper smell of famous temples and temples in the mainland. Most of them come here voluntarily to spread Buddhism and protect the Aerzhai Grottoes.
"Zhuang Ruian replied, I have to go back today. I will bring Dr. Ren here tomorrow to accompany you to see everywhere..."
After arranging Zhuang Rui's board and lodging, brother and sister Timur and Battelle were about to rush back to the gathering place. They both had their own pastures, and they didn't feel at ease since they hadn't gone back for several days.
Zhuang Rui knew that the grassland people worked at sunrise and rested at sunset, and they had been troubled enough these past few days. He quickly said: "Brother Bater, Timur Anda, Peng Fei and I can stay here. You guys
There’s no need to come here every day to accompany you…”
"Haha, it's okay," Zhuang Ruian replied. Next time I go to Beijing, you can just accompany me for a walk..."
Timur laughed heartily. He had already agreed to Zhuang Rui's invitation and would visit Beijing as soon as he had time.
In fact, strictly speaking, the dynasty that first established its capital in Beijing was the Yuan Dynasty.
At the time of Genghis Khan, Mongolia did not have a fixed capital. After Kublai Khan came to the throne, he established Beijing as his capital and changed it to Dadu, and carried out a series of transformations and expansions.
Due to the prosperity of the Yuan Dynasty, most of the capitals at that time were visited by all nations and attracted worldwide attention. Even the capital of Zhu Di, Beijing, followed the architectural style of the Yuan Dynasty without any major changes.
Although this abnormal prosperity only lasted for a short period of a hundred years, these prairie people regarded Beijing as a holy land. Timur, who had never been out of the prairie, was also very excited about this trip to Beijing.
expectations.
"This matter is easy to handle. Brother Timur, please make arrangements in the past few days. Come back to Beijing with me in a few days. I will have a good time with you..."
Zhuang Rui laughed when he heard this. Before coming to the grassland, he never expected that he would meet a sworn brother here.
Although they didn't get along for long, Zhuang Rui could feel that Timur truly regarded him as a brother, which made Zhuang Rui attach great importance to and cherish this kind of brotherly love that could no longer be found in big cities.
After sending away Battle and others, Zhuang Rui went to the place where he had kept Zhui Feng. Due to Zhui Feng's wild character, none of the red-blooded novices were its opponents, so they were not put together, but alone in the temple.
I found a place for it later.
"Hey, where is my horse?"
Still more than twenty meters away from the horse gallery, Zhuang Rui saw that the horse gallery was empty, and there was no shadow of Zhui Feng anywhere, so he couldn't help shouting anxiously.
Zhuang Rui's shout attracted a young lama in his twenties. When he heard that Zhuang Rui was looking for a horse, his eyes suddenly widened and he said, "Is that horse yours? I said, why did you get a wild horse?"
?My senior brothers were all kicked and injured..."
The little lama looked very angry. In the afternoon, his senior brother kindly brought fodder to feed the horse. Unexpectedly, he was kicked to the ground by the horse, jumped out of the horse gallery and rushed out of the temple.
"Ahem, little master, I'm really sorry. My horse is a bit wild, and most people can't get close to it. Is your senior brother seriously injured? Do you need to send him to the hospital?"
When Zhuang Rui heard that Zhui Feng was fine, he immediately felt relaxed. He knew that with Zhui Feng's temperament, he was really capable of doing this. He had no choice but to help him deal with the aftermath.
As for Zhuifeng's whereabouts, Zhuang Rui wasn't too worried. On this prairie, unless someone shot him with a gun, there was nothing he could do about it even if he chased it with a car.
Seeing Zhuang Rui's good attitude, the little lama felt a little embarrassed and said, "It's not a serious problem, but my shoulder is dislocated and I won't be able to do heavy work for a week..."
Zhuang Rui winked at Peng Fei, took 2,000 yuan from his hand, handed it to the young lama, and said: "I'm really sorry, young master, there is some money here, you can use it to make up for the loss of the master."
Body..."
"No... no, there's no need for this. Brother, just rest for a few days. I can't ask for your money..."
When the little lama saw Zhuang Rui's actions, his face turned red, he pointed in a direction and said: "Where did your horse go? Go find it..."
"Okay, but you still have to accept the money..."
After Zhuang Rui grabbed the little lama's hand and put the money into his hand, he and Peng Fei followed the place pointed by the little lama and went out to look for Zhui Feng, leaving behind the little lama who looked at a loss.
…
"Damn, you brat is very happy and carefree. Do you want your buddy to wipe your ass?"
According to the direction pointed by the little lama, Zhuang Rui and Peng Fei walked a mile or two and saw Zhui Feng. The boy was shamelessly riding on a mare to end his bachelor career. Of course, the previous
Zhuang Rui doesn't know whether Zhui Feng is a virgin or not.
However, Zhuang Rui has so many animals at home. This is the first time for Zhuang Rui to do this hurtful thing. Even a beast like the white lion has never caused Zhuang Rui as much trouble as Zhui Feng.
.
"Lulu..."
Seeing Zhuang Rui's arrival, Zhui Feng excitedly hissed, "This beast is a beast after all. His good deeds were ruined, but he didn't look embarrassed at all."
"Okay, just keep busy. I'll come see you tomorrow..."
Zhuang Rui waved his hand, turned around and left. He was not a breeding expert and had no interest in the "love" between animals. Moreover, the horse's "guy" was so big that Zhuang Rui felt a little embarrassed.
As for the mare being ridden by Zhui Feng, Zhuang Rui also saw that it was probably one of the wild horses. Zhuang Rui was going back to Beijing in a few days, and he also wanted Zhui Feng to experience it one last time.
Life on the prairie.
Early the next morning, Zhuang Rui was awakened by the ringing of the temple bells, and went with Peng Fei to receive the vegetarian meal.
After eating breakfast, Zhuang Rui felt the aura in his eyes. Although he had recovered a lot, the distance it was released was only a few hundred meters, which was not enough to cover the entire Arzhai Grottoes.
However, looking at one direction, the distance of several hundred meters was not short. Zhuang Rui came to the top of the Alzhai Grottoes alone. He wanted to see if there was anything under the legendary grotto where Genghis Khan recuperated.
Tricky?
Originally, Zhuang Rui wanted to drag Peng Fei along, but that guy was always worried about the yellow spot he was riding. After breakfast, he ran to Chai Feng, saying he wanted to tame a good horse.
Standing on the top of the mountain, bathed in the morning sunshine, with the morning bells in the temple echoing in my ears, my whole body felt lighter and lighter. I closed my eyes slightly, and the few auras in Zhuang Rui's eyes surged out, towards me.
The grotto beneath his feet spread out.
The artificially excavated grotto is not very big, only more than 20 square meters. The underground rock structure is the same as the Arzhai Grotto, which is made of red sandstone. However, Zhuang Rui always has a feeling that there should be a different world down there.
"Hmm? Is my feeling...wrong?"
The all-pervasive spiritual energy passed through the red sandstone and entered the bottom of the grotto. Zhuang Rui frowned slightly, because the rocks about ten meters below the grotto were exactly the same as the grotto floor, and there were no traces of excavation.
After digging a cave into the rock, it is impossible to fill it back completely, which means that there is no situation under the grotto as Zhuang Rui imagined.
