travel starts with photography

Chapter 63 Namtso

Fatty is talkative, but Shitou doesn't talk much. The combination of these two people is also a perfect match for traveling together.

However, every time Shito spoke was full of philosophy, he was able to guide several people to change the topic and chat for a long time.

Yu Jie said: "Shitou, you don't look like a computer department, but it looks like a philosophy department."

The fat man laughed and said: "We also think so in the dormitory. Shitou likes to read Buddhist scriptures, but it is precisely because of this that he accompanied me to the holy city."

"what?"

Shitou himself said: "I have read the books of Tibetan Buddhism for two years, and I want to visit them."

The impression he left on Chen Xing was not bad, he was more stable than Brother Jie and Fatty, but his sickly appearance was indeed too much of a loss.

After Chen Xing finished his food slowly, he asked, "What are you planning to do today?"

He came here with a purpose, but since he came to the holy city, he couldn't just go to Gang Rinpoche and go around the mountain without shopping, right?This activity will be very tiring just by hearing people talk about it. After the transfer, Chen Xing probably won't be in the mood to travel in the holy city.

Shitou couldn't go anywhere today, Gao Fan was already in a bad mood, and he also caught an extra cold.

Simply double the enjoyment.

Several people sat in the living room and chatted for a day, and he went back to the room to rest. The fat man had to stay in the hotel to take care of him. Only the fat man answered Chen Xing's question, but he did not choose to act together.

He has friends here and is going to be a guest today.

"Looks like I'm the only one left with nothing to do."

The fat man sighed and said, "You can go to Versailles. Only one of us can move freely. I'm so envious."

Yu Jie asked, "Is there any place you want to go?"

"Look Haizi, I want to go to Namtso."

Namtso is next to LS, and it is also the place Chen Xing wants to shoot the most. The scenery has a strong plateau atmosphere and is unique.

"Go to Namtso." Yu Jie scratched his head and said, "Then you have to be careful, as far as I know, the folk customs there don't seem to be very good."

"How?" asked the fat man.

He also wanted to go, if it wasn't for Shitou's illness, they would have gone to Namu early in the morning to take pictures of the sunrise.

"It's usually like this." Yu Jie said, "It seems that people who live near scenic spots value money more, especially in this kind of remote area, making money from tourists is much faster than making money from herding horses and cattle, and Still easy."

"No way." Chen Xing said.

This kind of shattered his understanding of Tibet.

Aren't all the folk customs here simple and honest?

"Why not? Today's Tibet is no longer what it was more than ten years ago. My brother entered Tibet in 04. At that time, the Tibetans were very nice. My brother said that they talked about horse milk at night. He wanted to try it. , the family rode a horse overnight for more than an hour to buy it for him, free of charge."

The fat man said, "Really? It's out of line."

"Really, otherwise I wouldn't have traveled to Tibet many times over the years. It's my brother who described Tibet too well. Anyway, if you want to go, be careful."

He came this time to go to Ali, and he has been to other attractions.

Chen Xing didn't think much about it, but decided to go there first.

If you really can’t, just take a picture in the scenic area. If you don’t run around, you should be fine. No matter how bad the folk customs are, you can’t stab someone with a knife, right?
This is 2021.

No matter what Chen Xing thought, Yu Jie was just reminding her that the relationship between the two of them hadn't reached that level yet.

He saw that everyone was in action. Those who were going to Namco were carrying bags and cameras, and those who were going back to sleep stood up and walked to the room with difficulty. He put on his hat and said to Chen Xing: "We will stay here In two days, I will find a car to go to Ali again, Chen Xing, do you want to go with me?"

"Okay, I'm worried that I can't help it."

"Okay then." He said and walked out.

As expected of a veteran tourist, visiting friends is visiting friends, as free and easy as the locals when they leave their own home.

Chen Xing had to bring his bag.

The Holy City and Namtso seem to be very close, but the distance is two hundred kilometers, and it takes three hours to drive.So he took his luggage in case he wouldn't be able to come back tonight. He would probably live there and come back early tomorrow morning.

When I came out again, there was no one in the living room.

Walking out of the B&B, there was a person squatting on the billboard outside, probably a maintenance master, fiddling with a vertical air conditioner.

Looked at the navigation.

He has already inquired that there is no direct bus from the holy city to Namtso, so he needs to take a bus to Damxiong first, and then take a ride or a chartered car to Namtso.

I have to take the bus again.

Boss Chen Xing was unwilling.

However, sitting in the bus for such a long time, Chen Xing seemed to have adapted to the environment in the bus, and it was not as uncomfortable as before.

There is no doubt that the Holy City is a big city, but its bus station is still much smaller than that of inland cities.

buy tickets.

boarding.

The car he got in was very small, only a little bigger than a van, and could seat about ten people.

Departure as soon as it is full.

Chen Xing sat in a separate seat in the second row, with two Tibetans in front of him.

In the holy city, you are either wearing a Tibetan robe or a Tibetan. You have to judge by the thickness of your face and clothes.

Tourists like to buy all kinds of Tibetan clothes after they come to the holy city, but few people buy this kind of thick and uncharacteristic style. The clothes worn by girls are not bad, there are various colors, colorful, but boys Tibetan robes are very monotonous.

So Chen Xing could easily tell who was sitting in the car.

Apart from him, there was only a turbaned man who looked like he was bald, about 25 to [-] years old.

As soon as the car drove, the Tibetans sitting in the car started chatting. Chen Xing wanted to rest, but this car was not comfortable to sit in. He just wanted to see what the friend behind him was doing. He was holding a mobile phone inside. Draw a road map.

Chen Xing looked at it for a while and asked, "Brother, where are you from?"

"I'm from Sanqin, hello, what's the matter?"

"What kind of software is this?"

"Ovie."

He just said this and stopped talking. He looked down at his mobile phone, not worried about whether he would get motion sickness at all. Chen Xing was envious but a little helpless. This person didn't seem easy to deal with, and the topic couldn't be discussed.

He got out of the car on the way.

The driver stopped again and picked up an old woman.

The old lady noticed Chen Xing as soon as she got in the car.

Whether he is handsome or not is a trivial matter, but she felt that Chen Xing was very kind, and when she got into the car, he smiled and nodded to her.

So after sitting firmly, the old lady took the initiative to ask, "Friend, are you here for a trip?"

"Eh, yes, hello."

"Hello, hello, where are you going?"

"Nam Co."

"Are you going to Namtso?" The old lady leaned back, and then said, "I live there, and there is a pasture that belongs to my family. If you want, you can come to our pasture, which is next to Namtso. Today we will kill the sheep. , come and eat mutton."

The old lady is very kind, but she doesn't speak Mandarin very well.

But Chen Xing was terrified.
