The day after leaving Qinhuangdao, Lu Yong and Hannah embarked on a journey to Lijiang, Yunnan.

Their hearts are filled with curiosity and anticipation about the unknown, as if every journey is a new life experience.

As the plane slowly descended, the outline of Lijiang gradually came into view. This ancient town with a history of more than 800 years was like a sleeping giant, waiting for their arrival.

Lu Yong and Hannah smiled at each other, their eyes sparkling with excitement and anticipation.

After arriving in Lijiang, the two quickly checked in, put their luggage in the hotel, and couldn't wait to embark on a journey to explore the ancient city. Lijiang Ancient Town, a gathering place for the Naxi people, attracts countless tourists with its unique architectural style and profound cultural heritage.

Walking on the bluestone road of the ancient city, Lu Yong and Hannah seemed to have traveled through time and space and returned to that distant era. The streets are located close to the mountains and rivers, and are distributed in a fishbone shape. The terrain is cleverly used to form a well-connected water system. Clear streams run through the city, and small bridges, flowing water, pavilions and towers complement each other, forming a charming picture scroll.

"Lu, look at this building, it's so unique!" Hannah shouted, pointing to a building in front.

Lu Yong looked in the direction where she pointed and saw that the building integrated the architectural features of several ethnic minorities including the Naxi, Bai, Tibetan, etc., forming a unique residential complex of three courtyards and one screen wall.

He smiled and nodded: "Yes, the architectural style of Lijiang Ancient Town is indeed unique. Every brick and tile here carries the memory of history, making people seem to feel the pulse of that era."

The two continued walking, strolling in every corner of the ancient city. They visited Mufu Sifang Street, felt the history and culture of the Naxi people, and climbed up the Wangu Tower to overlook the beautiful scenery of the entire ancient city.

Wherever she went, Hannah couldn't help but take out her cell phone to take pictures, as if she wanted to freeze this beauty in her memory forever.

As night falls, the bar street in Lijiang Old Town begins to get lively. Neon lights flicker, music plays, and the air is filled with a carnival atmosphere. Lu Yong and Hannah are also attracted by this atmosphere and decide to experience Lijiang's bar culture.

Walking into a distinctive bar, the two were immediately infected by the warm and free atmosphere. On the stage, the singer was singing the folk songs of the Naxi people with deep emotion, and under the stage, the tourists were waving their bodies to the music, releasing the fatigue of the journey.

"Lu, let's dance too!" Hannah took Lu Yong's hand and walked towards the dance floor excitedly.

Lu Yong smiled and nodded, and followed Hannah into this sea of ​​joy. They danced to the rhythm of the music, as if they wanted to throw all their worries away. Their clothes were soaked with sweat, but their faces were filled with happy and joyful smiles.

After dancing for a while, the two felt thirsty, so they found a place to sit down and ordered a few bottles of beer. The coolness and tipsy feeling of the beer made them more relaxed, as if the whole world had become gentler.

"Lu, what do you think of this trip to Lijiang?" Hannah asked, taking a sip of beer.

Lu Yong thought for a moment, then said seriously: "This trip to Lijiang is a brand new experience for me. The scenery, culture and food here all make me feel a different charm. Especially the bar culture here, it seems like I have seen another way of life. I think that traveling is like this, it always brings us unexpected surprises and gains."

Hannah listened, her eyes sparkling with approval.

She touched Lu Yong's glass gently, then drank it all in one gulp: "Yes, traveling is an unknown adventure. Every journey is a baptism of the soul. I am very fortunate to experience these beautiful moments with you and leave so many precious memories."

After coming out of the bar, their stomachs started to growl. They decided to look for Lijiang's specialties to satisfy their taste buds. Walking on the streets of the ancient city, the aroma filled their noses, making them look forward to the next food tour.

After some searching, they finally found a restaurant specializing in Dongba grilled fish. The grilled fish in this restaurant is famous for its unique taste and rich flavor, and is one of the specialties of Lijiang.

"Lu, what do you think of the grilled fish in this restaurant?" Hannah asked, pointing at the restaurant's sign.

Lu Yong took a look and nodded: "I heard that Dongba grilled fish is very good, let's go in and try it!"

The two walked into the restaurant and found a seat by the window. After a while, the waiter brought two plates of steaming grilled fish. The grilled fish had a golden and crispy skin, and the meat inside was tender and delicious, exuding an enticing aroma.

"Wow, it looks so delicious!" Hannah couldn't help but exclaim.

Lu Yong also swallowed his saliva, then picked up a piece of fish with chopsticks and put it into his mouth. The fish melted in his mouth, and the delicious taste spread in his mouth, making him couldn't help but exclaim: "It really lives up to its reputation! This grilled fish tastes really great!"

Hannah also tasted it and showed a satisfied smile on her face: "Yes, the taste of this grilled fish is really unique. The meat is delicate and the taste is delicious. It makes people linger in the aftertaste."

In addition to the grilled fish, the two also ordered a serving of chickpea jelly. This snack is made from local chickpeas and is made through a series of fine processes. The jelly has a delicate and smooth texture and a unique and delicious taste. It is a traditional delicacy in Lijiang.

"Lu, what do you think of this chicken bean jelly?" Hannah asked after tasting the jelly.

Lu Yong tasted it and nodded: "Very good. This jelly has a delicate texture and delicious taste, and it is very characteristic of Lijiang. I think that this trip to Lijiang, we not only enjoyed the beautiful scenery and experienced the culture, but also tasted so many delicacies. It's really worth it!"

Hannah heard this and a bright smile appeared on her face.

She picked up her chopsticks, picked up a piece of grilled fish and put it in Lu Yong's bowl: "Lu, thank you for always being with me and experiencing these beautiful moments with me. I hope that our journey can continue like this, full of laughter, surprises and beautiful memories."

Lu Yong looked at Hannah, took Hannah's hand and kissed it gently: "Nana, I hope so too. Being with you, every day is full of happiness and joy."

After dinner, the two strolled in the ancient city and enjoyed the night scenery of Lijiang.

The moonlight is like water, sprinkling on every corner of the ancient city, giving this ancient town a mysterious veil.

Walking on the bluestone road, Lu Yong and Hannah held hands, feeling the tranquility and warmth of the ancient city. They stopped from time to time to admire the scenery along the road; sometimes they whispered to each other, sharing their thoughts and dreams.

"Lu, look at the moon over there, it's so round!" Hannah shouted, pointing at the moon in the sky.

Lu Yong looked in the direction of her finger and saw a bright moon hanging in the sky, like a bright lamp, illuminating the way forward for them. He smiled and nodded: "Yes, the moon tonight is indeed very round. It is just like our love, perfect and beautiful."

Hannah smiled happily after hearing this. She held Lu Yong's hand tightly, as if to freeze this happiness forever at this moment: "Lu, I feel like the happiest person in the world. Because you are by my side, and we are experiencing these beautiful moments together."

Lu Yong was deeply moved after hearing this. He gently hugged Hannah, as if he wanted to put all his love into this hug: "Nana, me too. Being with you, I feel real happiness and joy. I hope we can continue like this, hand in hand, through every spring, summer, autumn and winter."

As the night deepened, Lu Yong and Hannah returned to the hotel.

They lay on the bed, thinking about everything that happened today, their hearts filled with satisfaction and happiness.

"Lu, where do you think we should travel next time?" Hannah asked suddenly.

Lu Yong thought for a moment, then smiled and said, "I think that no matter where I go, as long as I am with you, it is the most wonderful trip. Because you are the most beautiful scenery in my life." Hannah heard this, tears of emotion flashed in her eyes. She snuggled tightly in Lu Yong's arms, as if she wanted to treasure this happiness forever: "Lu, I feel the same. Being with you, no matter where we go, is my happiest time."

The moonlight shines through the gaps in the curtains and falls on the two of them, as if covering them with a layer of silver gauze.

On this quiet and warm night, Lu Yong and Hannah knew that their love would be as perfect and beautiful as this bright moon.

And the future journey will become more exciting and worth looking forward to because of each other's company.

In the early morning, when the first ray of dawn had not yet penetrated the clouds and the ancient city of Lijiang was still immersed in a peaceful sleep, Lu Yong and Hannah had already gotten up early and began to busy themselves with packing their equipment for climbing Jade Dragon Snow Mountain.

Their hearts are filled with challenges and expectations for the unknown, as if every journey is an exploration of the limits of life.

Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, the sacred mountain of the Naxi people, is famous for its magnificent natural scenery and rich ecological resources.

At an altitude of 5596 meters, there is snow all year round, and snow-capped peaks are connected, like a giant dragon hovering above the clouds.

For Lu Yong and Hannah, this is not just a tourist attraction, but also a holy place that requires them to conquer with courage and perseverance.

"Lu, are you sure we want to climb Jade Dragon Snow Mountain?" Hannah asked worriedly while packing her backpack.

Although she is usually keen on outdoor sports, climbing a snow-capped mountain with an altitude of more than 5000 meters is still an unprecedented challenge for her.

Lu Yong turned around and looked at Hannah firmly: "Nana, since we are in Lijiang, we can't miss Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. This is our dream and also our challenge. I believe that as long as we are well prepared, we will succeed."

Hannah listened, her eyes gleaming with determination. She nodded, and then continued to busy herself with packing her equipment. They brought enough cold-proof clothing, hiking shoes, hiking poles, water bottles, food and other necessities, and also specially hired a local guide, Amin, to ensure the safety and smoothness of the climb.

Amin is an experienced mountaineering guide who knows the terrain and climate of Yulong Snow Mountain very well. He smiled and said to Lu Yong and Hannah, "Don't worry, just follow me and I will definitely take you to the top of the mountain safely."

Lu Yong and Hannah smiled at each other, their hearts full of confidence and expectation. They knew that this climb was not only a challenge for themselves, but also an unforgettable experience.

As the sun gradually rose, Lu Yong, Hannah and Amin set out on their journey to climb the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain. They walked along the winding mountain road, and every step was full of hardships and challenges.

At first, the mountain road was relatively flat, and the two could chat and enjoy the scenery along the way. But as the altitude gradually increased, the air became thinner and thinner, and their breathing became more rapid. Every step seemed to be on cotton, and it took more effort to move forward.

"Lu, I can't walk anymore." Hannah stopped, breathing heavily.

Lu Yong looked back at Hannah, then walked over to her and held her hand: "Nana, don't give up. Since we have chosen this path, we must keep going. Believe me, we will definitely reach the top of the mountain."

Hannah listened, her eyes flashing with determination. She nodded, took a deep breath, and continued to follow Lu Yong and Amin.

As the altitude increased, the mountain road became steeper and steeper. Sometimes they climbed on smooth stone walls, and sometimes they crossed the sea of ​​clouds. Every time they lifted their feet, it seemed like they were fighting against their own limits, but their hearts were full of perseverance and persistence.

Amin led the way, looking back from time to time to remind Lu Yong and Hannah to be careful. His figure was looming in the sea of ​​clouds, like a god leading them forward.

As they were climbing hard, a strong mountain wind suddenly blew up, sweeping up the snowflakes. Their vision instantly became blurred, and Lu Yong and Hannah held each other's hands tightly, fearing that they would be blown away by the wind.

"Everyone be careful! Find a place to hide quickly!" Amin shouted loudly.

They quickly found a crack in the rock and hid inside. The mountain wind whistled past, bringing a bone-chilling chill. Lu Yong hugged Hannah tightly, using his body temperature to keep her warm.

"Lu, are we going to die here?" There was a hint of fear in Hannah's voice.

Lu Yong shook his head and looked at her firmly: "Nana, don't be afraid. With me here, we will definitely survive. When the wind stops, we will continue to move forward."

Hannah listened, trust flashed in her eyes. She nodded, and then snuggled tightly in Lu Yong's arms.

After an unknown amount of time, the mountain wind finally stopped. They carefully walked out of the cracks in the rocks and continued on their way. But the mountain road had become more difficult, and every step was filled with uncertainty and danger.

At this moment, Hannah suddenly slipped and lost her balance. Lu Yong was quick to grab her hand and pulled her back steadily.

"I'm so scared!" Hannah gasped, her face pale.

Lu Yong patted her on the back and comforted her, "It's okay, Nana. I'm here, nothing will happen to you."

They continued to move forward, taking every step carefully. Amin led the way and looked back from time to time to remind them to pay attention to safety. With their joint efforts, they finally passed through this dangerous area.

As the altitude gradually increased, they finally reached the mountainside of Yulong Snow Mountain. They were exhausted, but their eyes were shining with determination. They knew that they were not far from the top of the mountain.

"Come on everyone! We are almost at the top of the mountain!" Lu Yong shouted loudly.

Hannah and Amin also cheered up and followed Lu Yong to climb. Every step seemed to be a struggle against their own limits, but their hearts were full of perseverance and persistence.

Finally, after going through untold hardships, they successfully climbed to the top of Yulong Snow Mountain. Standing at an altitude of 5596 meters, they seemed to be above the clouds, overlooking the whole world.

"We succeeded!" Lu Yong shouted excitedly.

Hannah and Amin also cheered excitedly, their voices echoing in the valley, as if announcing their victory to the whole world.

Lu Yong turned around and hugged Hannah tightly: "Nana, we did it! We successfully climbed the Jade Dragon Snow Mountain!"

Hannah's eyes were filled with tears of excitement. She nodded and kissed Lu Yong deeply: "Lu, thank you for always being with me. With you around, I am fearless."

A-Ming also smiled and patted their shoulders: "Congratulations! You are really awesome!"

Standing on the top of the snow-capped mountain, Lu Yong and Hannah seemed to feel unprecedented freedom and tranquility. They knew that this climb was not only a challenge to themselves, but also a spiritual baptism. Here, they witnessed each other's courage and persistence, and also harvested the most precious love.
