The New Year flavor in Kunlun Mountain is more of a form of worship, and the customs here are very different from those of the Han people below the mountain. After the twelfth lunar month, people here stop eating meat until the Chinese New Year. This is to respect the creatures of nature.
I was curious about the origin of the ingredients at first, but I also found out about it on the way back to Jade Tower from Huoquan.
There are many valleys in the Kunlun Mountains. Due to the volcanoes at the bottom of the valleys, the climate is as warm as the subtropics, and there are many animals and plants. In order to protect these resources, the Shangguan ancient people covered them up. Whether they eat vegetarian food or meat, they can be said to be taken from them.
Inexhaustible.
I also saw the second grandma and the third grandma. They still looked like they were 28 years old. They looked very out of place standing next to my second grandpa and my third grandpa. I always felt that the atmosphere was a little awkward. In fact, they may not be.
Suitable, but it is difficult to find a race with such longevity as the ancient Qilin tribe in the world. The seniority of the Han people seems awkward here. There is no distinction between seniority here. Brothers and sisters are commensurate according to their age, or based on their status and status.
The position is commensurate with the position, but it doesn't appear to be bureaucratic like the one in Peiping.
After the New Year, in early March of 1946, I opened the door and came to Zhusha's room next door. At this time, she and Huo Qilin had become very close to each other. After conquering the blue Fire Qilin, Zhusha's eyes became brighter.
It turned blue, giving it an exotic and mysterious feel.
Zhu Sha’s mother, Queen Mother Xi, made me a snow wolf fur cotton-padded jacket. The style was very nice, but as spring and summer were approaching down the mountain, the garment was too big and inconvenient to carry, so I had to wear it again and my old grandmother from the herdsmen’s house sewed it for me.
woolen cotton-padded jacket.
Faqiu pointed out that he stuffed a route map down the mountain into my backpack. After reluctantly waving goodbye to everyone, I went down to Kunlun Mountain alone. The time on the snowy mountain road was the most difficult. According to the route
It took about half a month to walk. Faqiu Zhi told me that this route is very safe and can avoid snow wolves in the snow-capped mountains.
Because I was afraid of not having enough food, I only ate one meal a day, mostly meat jerky and the like. My mouth started to burn at the end of the meal.
At the end of March, I walked out of the Kunlun Mountains, and my lips were already dry and peeling due to lack of water. When I arrived at the border of Xinjiang, I saw a vast desert with yellow-brown sand seas reaching to the horizon. The topography of Xinjiang is characterized by three mountains sandwiched by two basins.
Xinjiang is the Jungar Basin, and southern Xinjiang is the Tarim Basin, with a large temperature difference between day and night. Southern Xinjiang is hot with thin precipitation, while northern Xinjiang is cold with abundant precipitation. Lop Nur is located in the middle east of Xinjiang, which is the eastern end of the Tarim Basin.
, and there is also Turpan, known as the Fire Island, not far away. The home of Adema, the guide who led my grandfather back then, is in Turpan, and he is a family who makes a living by buying and selling camels.
Although Lop Nur is still between me and Turpan, finding Adema's descendants is the key. The route to Lop Nur Yunwen Temple passed down by Adema is the key to me entering the Yunwen Temple and surviving in the desert.
, a qualified guide is also very much needed.
I was hungry and thirsty and walked for another two days or so. Just as the blood-red sunset illuminated the western sky on the desert, I could see strange rocks and clusters of cacti in the distance. When I saw a small village transformed into
As I grew stronger, my strength became weaker and weaker, until finally I flopped on the ground and crawled forward one by one, my ears were ringing and stars were shooting out of my eyes.
I saw several young men racing on camels, galloping towards me. I was so happy that there was finally someone, I finally saw someone. I fainted in a daze.
I could only faintly hear someone saying: "Look, there's someone here..."
