Chen Xing is also ready to go back to rest. Living in a tent in the desert sounds very interesting, but once you get into the tent, it will be the same as living in a tent in any park across the country. After all, the sand in this desert is not Buried you overnight.
On the contrary, why is Dunhuang Crescent Spring so small, but it can remain like this in the desert for countless years?
It is precisely because of the environment on Mingsha Mountain that the wind keeps blowing from low to high. Even in modern times, so many tourists come every day and trample the sand of the dunes down, but it only takes one night for the wind to blow. This will blow the sand back to its original position.
This kind of scenery is a wonder in any era.
Therefore, it is very safe to live in the desert plain near Mingsha Mountain. There is no need to worry about whether there will be a sandstorm at night. This is why the desert camp here is running so smoothly, with so many businesses and independent tourists staying here.
But before he reached the tent, he heard someone say: "Huh? Why isn't Fan Cun there?"
"Going back early, right?"
"There's no one in the tent? His cell phone is still charging inside."
Fan Cun?
When Chen Xing heard the name, he turned around to confirm that he had indeed not been seen.
Fan Cun was that Uncle Nikon. He had walked with him all the way to Crescent Lake Scenic Area before. After getting to know him again here, Chen Xing found that this man was more talkative only when there were few people around. As soon as there were more people, he would eat the peanuts they brought and drink wine by himself.
"The toilet isn't there either. Where did he go?"
This flat land is so big. It is much brighter at night in the desert than in the city. Not to mention there are lights here, even if there are no lights, normal people can see far away here.
Their camp mainly relies on the two RVs where Chen Xing and the others ordered food. The other campsite is at least a hundred meters away. The people there are also very lively. They also lighted bonfires and danced and sang together, but Fan Cun was obviously not People who like to join in the fun.
Someone even went there to take a look and came back and said, "No."
The man scratched his hair anxiously and said, "Is something going to happen?"
Chen Xing suddenly pointed to the sand dunes in the distance and said, "Is that him?"
"Who? Where?"
"Can't you see?"
Because of Fan Cun's incident, the group of people they were chatting with didn't disperse. They ran to Chen Xing and looked in the direction of his finger. They only saw darkness.
Although the darkness here is bright, it is still late at night.
Human eyes can only see the surrounding area here, and the further distance is black to them, just like the fog of war in League of Legends. But Chen Xing's eyesight is very good, very good, and he can see clearly. There is a person sitting on the sand dune over there.
Judging by his body shape, it should be him.
Chen Xing said: "Looks like he should be fine. I'll go take a look. You guys wait for my news."
As long as you see people, it's fine. I haven't heard of any dangerous wild animals here. At most, mosquitoes are more dangerous... Chen Xing really saw the words in the desert just now. Every one of the good guys is similar to the long one. Foot mosquitoes are about the same size and suck blood.
Although they couldn't see it, they were relieved when Chen Xing said this and said, "You can give us a call later."
"OK OK."
Chen Xing walked the fastest and climbed the mountain quickly. The dune was twenty or thirty meters high, but it didn’t take Chen Xing long to climb up. This was without the soft ladder that was difficult to fix, otherwise Chen Xing would have walked on It's about the same speed as going up the stairs.
Taking a closer look, it turned out to be Fan Cun.
"Brother Fan." Chen Xing shouted.
Fan looked at the sky, looked back when he heard the shouting, and then said with a smile: "You want to see the stars too?"
"I came to see you."
"?"
Fan Cun was a little confused.
"You came out alone and didn't leave a message or anything. Everyone was worried about you when they found out you were gone... Fortunately, I had good eyesight and saw you here."
Only then did Fan Cun react and said, "Sorry, I thought you might have to chat for a long time, so I wanted to come out and take a picture of the stars. It was a little brighter over at the camp, so I came here to find a place. Here you go. Are you causing trouble?"
"No, it's not too much trouble."
Chen Xing continued to walk up the sand and sent a message to the people waiting inside the camp.
Walking to Fan Cun, Chen Xing said, "It's really cold in the desert at night."
"Well, the desert sand will dissipate heat very quickly after dark. When the sun's heat completely disappears, it will start to absorb the surrounding waste heat."
Chen Xing laughed and said, "I didn't think about it that much."
He also sat down here.
Not to mention, the desert atmosphere now seems to have more people feeling it than before.
A small wind blew, and the ground made a rustling sound.
This kind of wind sound is unique. It reminds Chen Xing of some unique instruments in Egyptian music. The Egyptian music he has heard before automatically appears in his mind, matching the desert in front of him, a camp with lights under the dunes, and the desert. Beautiful stars in the starry sky.
"It's so beautiful here."
Chen Xing supported it with his hands, leaned back and looked at the sky, and spoke from the bottom of his heart.
Fan Cun nodded and said:
"Actually, this is not the first time I have come to Dunhuang. The last time I came, I was still very young. It was only in 1998. There was no such camp here, and the Crescent Spring did not have the light strips we see now, nor the park next to it. , very simple and beautiful.”
"...I wasn't born yet." Chen Xing said.
He came after 000 years.
Fan Cun smiled and said: "I came to see it with my girlfriend. Later we got married. My younger son is probably about the same age as you. How old are you?"
"2002."
"That's about right, he's 17."
Fan Cun was very chatty when he was alone with others. He pointed to a sand dune next to him and said, "You may not know that the sand dune over there is actually the Mingsha Mountain that many people climb in Crescent Moon Spring. You can see the Crescent Moon Spring, and if you are good at it, you can almost walk there without paying a ticket."
So far away...
It is estimated that no one in modern times would choose to walk through the desert to Crescent Moon Spring in order to save dozens of dollars on admission fees.
There are so many scenic spots in Dunhuang, but Crescent Lake is really cheap.
"Crescent Spring has witnessed the most beautiful period of my wife and I. In the following ten years, I sometimes dream at night about the time when she and I expressed our feelings to each other on Mingsha Mountain. This time I came here , I also immediately thought of visiting Crescent Moon Spring, but things have changed and people have changed."
"It has been more than 20 years, and there must have been changes. Our country is developing so fast now." Chen Xing said.
"Yes, everywhere is changing now, and of course it's not the same here."
"Tsk, what Brother Fan said is quite accurate."
No wonder he is a professional writer, his words are literary and artistic.
Chen Xing's literature and art are only in his words. In his daily life, he is a very ordinary young man.
He wore few clothes and felt a little cold now. He stood up and patted his butt and said, "Then you can take pictures of the stars. I have to go back."
From the time he ate to now, he has left the two girls behind for a long time.
This is not good.
Let's go back and take a look at the situation.
The tent they slept in was fixed here by the merchants here. Everything inside was of high quality. Although the bed was not high, it still had the feel of a tatami in an island country. No one liked the quilt. No matter how cold it is outside, it's still warm under the quilt.
Chen Xing stayed in his small tent for a while, and after receiving the news, he sneaked into a large tent.
The price of a one-night stay in such a large tent is estimated to be much higher than that of a small tent.
The inside completely feels like a temporary camp for nomads. The bed inside is a wooden assembled bed on a thick mat, which is slightly swaying, but does not make any noise. There are decorative paintings on the surrounding cloth and tables, which are generally found in hotels.
There are even humidifiers and heaters.
This heater is not used during the day, but it can indeed be used in the desert at night.
The next day, Chen Xing was originally planning to go back today, but the two girls, Mozi and Nana, had just arrived in Dunhuang and had not seen many scenic spots, so they accompanied them to Yumen Pass to experience the ancient northwest. Guan's feelings beyond the Great Wall.
Why bamboo flute complain willow, spring is not degree Pass.
Yumen Pass is obviously in Gansu, and this province is not a border province. Why was such a poem written in ancient times?
Because after walking out from here, you will reach the famous Lop Nur. According to the environment at that time, this place is no longer the familiar Han culture. To its right is the Hexi Corridor that has been known to Chinese people since ancient times in our country, to its right is Lop Nur, and further away is the Taklimakan Desert.
How do you let the spring breeze survive this kind of environment?
Even now, after climbing to Yumen Pass, what you see is yellow sand and a desolate look.
For tourists, just automatically filter.
After returning from Yumen Pass, Chen Xing boarded the train to Yanjing overnight.
Sister Yu is indeed very good, but if he continues to travel with them, Chen Xing will not be able to make it to Yanjing to watch the National Day flag-raising ceremony. He will not change his travel plans for a woman who only has a one-night stand. Chen Xing didn't know that the two knew his identity before, but Chen Xing was still a little embarrassed after knowing it.
On the train, he took out his computer and sorted out the pictures he took during this period.
Dunhuang is indeed possible. This place is beautiful no matter how you shoot it, and it is particularly suitable for Chen Xing’s shooting style. If you don’t have to reduce the number of your own films, basically 60% of these photos can be sold at art exhibitions like before. Lose.
The remaining 20% are waste films, and some are beautiful women shot by Chen Xing.
It's a pity that you can't take pictures inside the Mogao Grottoes. It would be great if you could take pictures of the colorful grottoes. Even if you can't sell them, you can use them as souvenirs.
Sitting next to Chen Xing were two Dunhuang locals who were on a business trip. They saw Chen Xing selecting photos on the computer and kept looking at them for more than an hour without saying a word until Chen Xing finished counting all the photos and prepared them. When I created a Dunhuang folder and saved it, one of them spoke.
"Little brother, you took these pictures? They're so beautiful."
When Chen Xing heard their accents, he knew they were locals from Dunhuang. He smiled modestly and said, "It's not bad. It's mainly something I like."
Another person said: "It seems that none of the promotional videos we shot in Dunhuang are as good-looking as yours."
"That's not the case, I haven't cultivated it yet."
In fact, tourists are not a problem when it comes to taking photos of scenic spots. Chen Xing has many ways to deal with tourists who keep walking around.
Therefore, among the photos seen by these people, many big scenery cannot see tourists. Only those photos taken casually by Chen Xing will have a large number of tourists affecting the viewing, but no matter which one is before and after, they must be further investigated. It takes a trip to PS to become a blockbuster.
"It's true. We shoot new promotional videos here every once in a while. They were okay in the past few years, but now they always feel like the concept maps of communities released by real estate. They are getting worse and worse. You I think these photos are better than them.”
Chen Xing just cleaned up hundreds of photos. If it is like what they said, Dunhuang's promotional photos for several years may have been solved.
But it would be bad if you took people's politeness seriously.
Chen Xing often hears compliments and has long been accustomed to this feeling. He deletes those useless videos while chatting with them.
The light was bright now, and the train was not completely stable, so Chen Xing did not start editing pictures here. He put away the computer, listened to the song, and looked out the window at the northwest scenery that gradually passed by like a movie.
The area outside the Great Wall in the northwest had always been excluded from Han culture in ancient times, but when Chen Xing came to see it this time, he found that there were traces of Chinese culture everywhere.
France is a city of immigrants. There are people from all over the world. They also have many different cultures, but they are clearly distinct. For example, there is a district in Paris that is basically Chinese. There you can experience many festivals celebrated by Chinese talents, and also Quite prosperous.
As for China, many people say it is a very tolerant country.
This kind of inclusiveness doesn’t matter who you were before or what culture you have, but as long as you accept and learn Chinese culture and integrate it into your own culture, no one can say that you are foreigners after a hundred years.
Even white people.
Many people in China may not know that among the 56 ethnic groups in China, there are no less than five white ethnic minorities, who are also orthodox Chinese.
Speaking of desert culture, even many Chinese people will think of Egypt, the United Arab Emirates, etc., but China is also one of the countries with the largest desert area, and naturally has its own desert culture. However, Chen Xing prefers to call this desert culture desert culture.
The ancient Chinese people described the place outside the Great Wall as a desert. Nowadays, the most typical one is naturally the scenic area around Dunhuang.
The desert is desolate and hot, and only oases exist.
The desert sounds desolate and heroic, and there is no need to hide the great gap. Throughout the ages, there have been many touching stories outside the Yumen Pass.
