There were no interruptions when taking photos at Mingsha Mountain, and I completed this group of photos during the sunset.
However, something happened when going down the mountain. Tang Shiyi wanted to be more reserved and didn't let Chen Xing support her. This move almost caused her to change to a more mellow way and quickly go down the mountain. Fortunately, Chen Xing was on guard and caught her.
"Sister Tang, these clothes are very expensive..."
He was joking.
Tang Shiyi took a breath of cold air, hissed, and then coughed a few times as if he was choked.
"Ahem, you scared me to death."
This location is not very high compared to the sand dunes around Mingsha Mountain, but it is definitely not low. If you roll down a sand dune of tens of meters, no one can predict the consequences. Even a scratch will be serious.
She was a dancer, and to them a scrape on the body was as serious as a broken bone.
I can’t even play anyway…
Others gathered around and asked, "Are you okay?"
"It's okay, everyone, be careful." Chen Xing said.
It's still relatively bright now, so paying attention to the rhythm of the downhill shouldn't cause any problems.
Whether tourists like them are going up or down the mountain, the slopes of the desert will continue to send sand down with your footsteps. If you are distracted when walking and use the feeling of stepping on the ground to walk down, you will probably fall. .
Every day at Mingsha Mountain, there are people who fall down the mountain. Because the sand is soft and will not cause much harm, they still enjoy it.
Chen Xing couldn't understand it.
He doesn't like to do such dangerous things.
Going down the mountain was easier than going up the mountain. Soon we were back next to the car. A bonfire was lit in the desert camp in the distance. Someone also brought a loudspeaker for square dancing and played some trendy songs. The sound was deafening.
After getting in the car, Chen Xing said: "Quick, brother, play two songs by Jay Chou to wash my ears."
The female makeup artist's eyes lit up and she asked, "Brother Chen, do you also like Jay Chou?"
Chen Xing nodded: "I'm his fan."
Tang Shiyi's voice came from the side: "I know him. If you please me well these days, then I might be able to get some autographed photos for you."
Chen Xing rolled his eyes.
What's the use of a signed photo? He likes other people's songs.
He has photographed more than one or two international movie stars, as well as several of France’s most popular female singers. I have been to Sophie Marceau’s home several times. If I were serious, it would be worse than Jay Chou’s. Signed?
"Why don't you call me Brother Chen Xing and I'll take a better picture for you."
"go to hell……"
Tang Shiyi's shoeless foot stepped on the back of Chen Xing's shoe. Chen Xing didn't feel it at all. On the contrary, Tang Shiyi frowned a little.
"Hahaha……"
Chen Xing almost died laughing. Why is Sister Tang stepping on her feet like a child?
Amid the laughter and laughter of the two people, the vehicle headed towards Yadan Geopark. The people employed in the vehicle were all envious, but the objects of envy were different.
The sun has now set for more than half of the mountain. Extremely warm light shines on the car body from the left side, casting a long shadow on the right side. The desert in the light is a little red, and several little pheasants who are not afraid of people are chasing after it in the distance. Run following the shadow.
Maybe they were used to the traffic on this road and weren't afraid of the sound anymore.
Chen Xing searched in the car and didn't see anything that could be thrown away, so he pinched a paper ball and threw it into the distance. However, the paper ball was blown away by the wind as soon as it came out of the window, but Chen Xing The action had an effect and drove away these two little pheasants with beautiful coats.
"What are you doing? You're very cute."
"It's better to keep a distance from wild animals. If they really become familiar with people, they will be fine when they meet us. But if they encounter bad guys, they will be able to catch them. What should we do?"
Chen Xing’s teacher has shot too many documentaries about wild animals. Sometimes when chatting with Chen Xing, he would feel that the distance between humans and animals is too close.
Of course, he also inherited many of Nobel’s teachers’ concepts about animals.
Tang Shiyi was asked by Chen Xing and felt that it made sense.
"I'm from Hunan. When I was a child, I often saw small animals in my hometown. But these years, I can't see any."
"It's all like this. I used to have a whim to hunt wild boars and taste wild boar, but I heard from my grandpa that there have been no wild boars in the countryside for many years. Not to mention wild boars, even rabbits and pheasants are rarely seen."
The people in the car talked for an hour about the current environmental issues.
It was completely dark. After about half an hour of adaptation, the surrounding sand gradually began to get brighter.
Chen Xing has always known that the moonlight in remote areas can really illuminate the surroundings, but the light in those places is obviously not comparable to that in the desert. The sand can reflect the sun's light, and of course it can also reflect the moon's light.
This causes the surrounding sand to appear to glow.
Walking in such an environment, there is no change around. Everyone is sleepy. The female makeup artist sitting in front of Chen Xing snores lightly. Tang Shiyi is also very sleepy, and her head keeps falling forward. One fell down.
She didn't dare lie down completely on the seat. Her hair had been done for two hours before. It was like a multi-layered cake, layered on top, with some beautiful decorations on it. Don't mess it up. Good recovery.
Then, a warm voice seemed to say from the bottom of my heart: "Let's sleep on it."
"no……"
She said a little confused, and then realized that it was Chen Xing who was speaking. She opened her eyes and looked, and found that Chen Xing's hand was holding the back of her neck.
"What are you doing?"
"I see you endure the discomfort, go get some sleep."
She thought that Chen Xing had been very kind to her all day today, and was so heart-warming. Now he let her sleep on his hand again, and she felt a little wary. She thought, does this little brother really like me?
Tang Shiyi whispered: "I have a boyfriend..."
Chen Xing laughed.
"You are thinking too much. I just want you to take a rest and then you can properly pose for me."
"real?"
"It's more real than real gold." Chen Xing wanted to withdraw his hand.
"Hmph!" She snorted and quickly leaned on Chen Xing's hand.
This headrest is just right. I can finally rest my back. I feel sorry for my old back...
This time I followed Chen Xing out to take pictures, of course because Chen Xing paid a lot of money, and also because of her personal relationship with Chen Xing. She always felt that she should have a good relationship with Chen Xing. Although she had not met him a few times, she felt familiar as if she had known him for many years.
This also made her feel relieved about Chen Xing.
Isn’t it natural for a younger brother to take care of his older sister?
When passing an entrance, the driver walked out with the ticket that Chen Xing got from the Dunhuang Tourism Bureau, and then smoothly arrived at the second shooting point of the day...Devil City.
In fact, it is Yadan National Geological Park. Because the wind is very strong after night, and when the wind blows to the surrounding mounds, there will be a sound like the howling of thousands of beasts, so some people say that this is a devil city.
In an era before technology was developed, this place was basically a restricted area.
Few tourists from the mainland come, and locals dare not come, which makes Devil City full of mystery.
The locals don't dare to come. In addition to the scary sounds at night, there is also a very practical reason. That is because there are magnets underground here, which makes the compass useless here. This further proves the weirdness of Devil City.
However, among the several people at the scene, everyone was quite courageous. Only the 18-year-old photography assistant was a little scared and his feet were a little weak when he got off the car.
Tang Shiyi cheered up and asked: "Where shall we shoot? Finish the shooting earlier and we can go back and rest earlier. We are so sleepy."
"It's right up there, be careful when you climb up."
There are many red mounds standing directly from the ground in the Devil City. Generally speaking, no one is allowed to climb them. However, with the rise of tourism, Dunhuang has also built several solid mounds here to serve as Shooting spot.
There are many people taking photos up there during the day.
Especially when the sun sets, it’s impossible to grab a spot.
But there was no one around now. Even when he came in, he had his ticket issued and stamped by the tourist bureau.
"I'll help you up."
"You underestimate me? Don't worry, I won't make the same mistake again."
The tool for climbing the mound is a soft ladder, which can only be climbed by one person. Chen Xing really couldn't help, so he said: "Xiao Wang, please give Sister Tang a light to illuminate the way. Sister Tang... Watch your step."
"do not worry!"
Chen Xing waited at the bottom of the ladder for her to walk up completely before he felt relieved and returned to the front with his camera.
When Chen Xing was in Mingsha Mountain, the focus of his photography was Tang Shiyi's portrait. With the combination of the setting sun and lighting, she fully brought out Sister Tang's unique beauty. But here, what Chen Xing wants to express is the environment.
The hills standing in the picture seem to be insurmountable and mysterious from the ground perspective, and in the night sky, people are dancing under the stars.
Really human?
Chen Xing was so excited that he directed his two assistants to search for light and angles in different ways, and kept pressing the shutter button.
It's really amazing. She doesn't look like an ordinary person. Looking at the full moon behind her, she doesn't look like an ordinary person at all when she dances. She really looks like Chang'e dancing in the Guanghan Palace, especially Sister Tang's distant smile.
The wind in the desert caused the cloud sleeves to flutter irregularly, and also blew the colorful tassels, completely outlining her enchanting figure. Her smooth skin was illuminated by the photography lights in the moonlight, giving off a soft and obvious beauty like pearls at night. Light.
The swan-like elegant neck, even though it was obscured by the necklace, still made several men secretly salivate.
Tang Shiyi felt a little cold now, but she still smiled and asked Chen Xing: "Does it look good?"
"Good-looking." One of Chen Xing's strengths is honesty.
Tang Shiyi rolled her eyes cutely.
Today, he had a new understanding of Chen Xing. This stinky brother was obviously a pervert. Why did he think he was so much like a family member before? You have to remind the sisters to be careful when you go back.
Chen Xing has the WeChat accounts of a dozen girls in the troupe!
However, with the good impression from the past, the feeling Chen Xing gave her these days made this person more real. That is to say, there will never be anyone who is handsome, good-tempered, and talented without any shortcomings.
She didn't know why, but she liked this younger brother more.
It's a pity that she has a boyfriend, otherwise she really wouldn't mind a sibling relationship.
"It's done, let's call it a day!" Chen Xing said.
He could still store more than 300 photos in the card. He originally wanted to fill up the memory card, but he noticed that many people were shivering in the cold wind, so he stopped today's shooting, called it a day and went back to sleep.
Tang Shiyi is the coldest, after all, she wears very little.
Let everyone get in the car first, Chen Xing took some more photos of the starry sky, and then started to walk back.
It was past one in the morning when we returned to Dunhuang.
Chen Xing has been quite excited these days. He still can't sleep. He worked hard for a long time to edit the photos before going back to bed and lying down to sleep. The photos haven't been saved yet. If he wakes up tomorrow and has no new inspiration, he will save them directly into the final film. Bar.
Most of these photos still have to be taken to overseas exhibitions.
He couldn't wait to let foreigners see what authentic Chinese-style works were. These photos were completely different from the ancient architectural styles that Chen Xing had taken before. They changed from visual representation to imagery.
What would they say about me?
Chen Xing fell into a deep sleep.
……………………
Not knowing who was knocking on the door in the morning, Chen Xing turned over and ignored it and continued to sleep.
I haven't slept so comfortably for a long time.
Fortunately, the knocking on the door didn't last long.
Most likely it was Sister Tang, who else could it be?
The two photographer boys didn't dare to knock on the door so hard. Anyway, they would get an extra hundred yuan in salary every day when they were on business here. Chen Xing also paid for their meals. The two of them wished that Chen Xing would leave a few days later.
After an unknown amount of time, someone knocked on the door again.
Chen Xing yawned and went to open the door.
Tang Shiyi walked in with a bowl of noodles. He complained about Chen Xing for sleeping for so long, and then said enthusiastically: "I went out for breakfast and came across a kind of noodles that was very delicious. I packed a portion for you. You taste it.”
Chen Xing happened to be hungry, and wanted to praise him with a smile, but suddenly his nose sniffed.
Why does it stink?
After smelling it again, the smell turned out to be the smell of noodles brought by Tang Shiyi.
"This noodle has a bit of a stench, what's going on?"
"Ah? You can smell this? Everything I smelled just now was fragrant!" Tang Shiyi sighed, now he couldn't trick Chen Xing into eating it.
"What's going on?" Chen Xing asked.
"I don't know. I came to call you just now and you didn't get up, so I went to a restaurant to eat. I ordered it when I saw others eating. Oops, it smells good, but it tastes a bit smelly. That's what they said. Yes, what do you call stinky alkaline noodles... Anyway, I’m not used to it.”
"Aw... I really thought you were here to share the delicious food with me."
Tang Shiyi thought Chen Xing stopped eating, but when he saw Chen Xing open the disposable chopsticks, blow on the noodles and start eating.
"Aren't you afraid of the smell?"
"As long as it doesn't smell bad, it can be eaten in our country. Smelly is also a kind of flavor, and you also said it is smelly alkaline noodles, not some other weird thing. Well, this The taste is really strong.”
Not to mention smelly, the smell Tang Shiyi tasted came from the noodles, and the soup was very fragrant.
The noodles taste like eating preserved eggs without seasoning, but the texture is chewy and chewy. This is a packaged noodle. It will definitely taste better if you eat it on the spot. And this simple smell of stinky alkali, mixed with the noodle soup, has an indescribable taste.
Taste and smell are two senses.
Some things just smell bad and taste delicious, like durian, stinky tofu, etc. This stinky alkali noodles paired with the soup above is also such a unique delicacy.
