Chapter 503 Mogao Grottoes

The Silk Road, an important bridge connecting the East and the West during the Han and Tang Dynasties, once played an indelible role in promoting exchanges between the East and the West.

For thousands of years, too many stories have happened on this road.

Lin Ye and Miaomiao chatted about interesting things that happened on the westbound road.

In the Han Dynasty, Ban Chao, 30 people destroyed 50 countries, and set up the Western Regions Protectorate. This kind of legendary experience, even in novels, dare not write.

But it did happen in history.

In addition, there is Xuanzang's journey to the west, which has been handed down to this day.

The gods and demons novel Journey to the West created with it as the background is now a classic literary masterpiece that is well-known to every household.

Miaomiao was a little crazy.

Chinese civilization, magnificent and colorful, is the precious wealth of the Chinese nation and even all mankind.

Feeling bored during the flight, Lin Ye pulled Xiao Bai in and asked him to find a movie to watch.

It just so happened that he and Xiaohong completed the film production of Frozen 2, and Lin Ye and Miaomiao happened to be the first audience.

"The second one is not as good as the first one." Miaomiao said after watching it.

This is her first impression.

Lin Ye nodded, most of the sequels are getting worse as they get to the end, even many of the most classic ip series.

The earliest production level may not be satisfactory, but in terms of creative inspiration and sincerity, it is much better than the sequel.

"There is no other way to do this." Lin Ye said to Miaomiao.

However, Frozen 2 is still above the standard. According to Lin Ye's standard, it can score 7-8 points.

During the flight time of 4-5 hours, Lin Ye and Miaomiao got up and walked around for a while, because it is not good to sit for a long time.

Fortunately, the space inside the helicopter is quite large.

Moreover, the stability of this helicopter is good, and there will be no violent shaking.

Around noon, the flight attendant delivered the meal, which was a relatively simple fast food box lunch.

There is no kitchen on the plane, so we prepare some instant food, such as self-heating pot, instant noodles, instant rice and so on.

I eat it once in a while, and I don't think the taste is too bad.

"Are you coming soon?" Lin Ye asked the flight attendant.

"Well, we're almost here, and we've made contact with the airport on the ground." The flight attendant nodded and said.

In fact, Lin Ye and Miaomiao also experienced the great scenery of the vast territory of the motherland along the way.

Crossing the Jianghan Plain, saw the Loess Plateau, and then went to the Hexi Corridor, the scenery along the way is infinite.

My own plane is good, and the captain will remind Lin Ye and Miaomiao to watch it when they fly to places with good scenery.

Soon after, the plane stopped at Mogao Airport.

After getting off the plane, Lin Ye and Miaomiao rented a car nearby, booked a hotel, put some belongings in the hotel, and then planned to set off for the scenic spot.

The crew members were also arranged to rest at the hotel, and they were free to play as they wished during these two days. Lin Ye gave each of them [-] travel reimbursement funds.

He is still very generous to those who accompany him.

The crew members are very happy, and it's good to follow the boss who spends money.

Food and accommodation are included, as well as travel expenses reimbursement.

There are many classics near Crescent Spring, Lin Ye first took Miaomiao to Mogao Grottoes to check in.

Mogao Grottoes, commonly known as the Thousand-Buddha Grottoes, has 735 existing caves, 4.5 square meters of murals, and 2415 clay colored sculptures. It is the largest and richest Buddhist art site in the world.

One of the most famous is the Feitian mural.

A large part of the zoo's light show is borrowed from here.

Miaomiao is also very interested in this place.

Of course, there are stories about the Mogao Grottoes and the theft of Buddhist scriptures.

There is a description in the Chinese textbook. In 1900, on an ordinary day, when Taoist Wang was cleaning the pigsty, he accidentally discovered a Buddhist scripture cave.
Not long after the discovery of the cultural relics in the Buddhist scripture cave, a group of shameless Western robbers defrauded a large number of cultural relics from the Buddhist scripture cave from the hands of Taoist Wang by various means of plundering.

At present, these scriptures are collected in many public and private collections in Britain, France, Russia, Japan and other countries, and only a small part is preserved in China. This is also an unprecedented catastrophe in the history of Chinese culture.

When Lin Ye visited, images of that era seemed to appear in his eyes.

Taoist Wang is certainly a sinner in history, causing Mogao Grottoes to suffer great losses.

"Brother Ye, will these scriptures return to the embrace of our country in the future?" Miaomiao asked.

Lin Ye nodded: "Yes, as our country becomes stronger and stronger, many cultural relics have returned to the country. This is inseparable from the efforts of all cultural relic protection workers. I firmly believe that it will get better and better in the future .”

Miaomiao's mood immediately improved a lot.

Coming out of Mogao Grottoes, Lin Ye and Miaomiao received a small gift.

It is an introduction to the history and culture of Dunhuang.

The scenic spot is still very interesting.

"Now let's go to Crescent Lake." Lin Ye took Miaomiao and drove to the destination of the trip.

The car was driving on the long yellow sandy road, and as far as the eye could see, there were deserts and Gobi.

In the dusk, there is a sense of beauty and desolation.

Looking into the distance, Miaomiao feels the heavy history and culture.

Did Ban Chao start from here thousands of years ago?

When Xuanzang arrived here, did he stop for a while?

Miaomiao felt a lot of emotion in her heart.

The sunset in Saibei is also a must.

The solitary smoke in the desert is straight, and the sun sets in the long river. The sunset here has a trace of cultural heritage.

The car soon arrived at Mingsha Mountain.

The view here is excellent, like the spring water of a crescent moon, appearing in everyone's sight.

"It's so beautiful, there are deserts all around, only here is an oasis." Miaomiao was amazed by this scene.

Especially when I just climbed to the top of the mountain and saw this picture suddenly, the visual contrast was instantly full.

For thousands of years, I don't know how many business travelers have come and gone here.

Crescent Lake is more like a fountain of life, a fountain of hope, providing convenience to countless people.

"The mountain under our feet is Mingsha Mountain." Lin Ye said to Miaomiao.

Unlike the mountain in Taohuayuan, the mountain here is a sea of ​​sand, without any vegetation.

"Mingsha Mountain, the sand seems to be making a sound."

There are many tourists who choose to take the net red sand slide directly from the top of the mountain.

You can't see the bottom of the mountain at a glance, and it takes a lot of courage to ride the sand slide.

Miaomiao and Lin Ye didn't plan to take the slide and play on the mountain for a while, and then drove directly through the road to the Crescent Spring Scenic Area.

Tourists take the slide and rub against the ground, causing the resonant sound of the sand, which is a bit strange.

Dahei and Xiaobai went aside to play.

Lin Ye ignored them.

Dahei and Xiaobai seemed to be very interested in sliding down the slide, and they enjoyed it endlessly, but after sliding down a few meters, they ran up to continue playing.

They don't slide to the bottom, it's cool to slide to the bottom, but if they want to climb up again, they will be tired and paralyzed.
