The sky is blue, deep and pure.

The plane rose slowly, and the clouds changed colors, sometimes white, sometimes yellow, and sometimes bright.

Suddenly, my eyes suddenly opened up, and the sun shone through the window, casting mottled light.

No matter how beautiful the scenery is, you will get tired of it if you see it too much. After looking at it for a few times, Li Ding'an covered him with a thin blanket and closed his eyes.

Yu Huiyin and Shu Jinghao were sitting in the back row. They stared at a small glass bottle and muttered:

"Where did you dig it out?"

"In the Yacheng ruins north of the outpost, there are quite a lot of them in a wooden box... Teacher Li said this is purple salt."

"What is the use?"

"It is said to be a traditional Chinese medicine. It was used to treat trauma in ancient times and is used to treat cancer in modern times."

"It's so amazing, what does it smell like?"

"I don't know, do you want to try it?"

Wang Yongqian couldn't hold it back anymore and burst into laughter with a "poof" sound.

Li Ding'an turned his head helplessly.

"I'm warning you, this stuff is poisonous and corrosive...you can eat it without fear of intestinal perforation."

"Just talking casually, do you think we really eat it?"

Yu Huiyin looked at him narrowly, "Have you tasted it? What does it taste like?"

Nonsense, I haven't tasted it, how do I know this stuff is poisonous?
"Bitter in the salt...huh?"

Suddenly, Yu Huiyin and Shu Jing were laughing together.

Li Ding'an shook his head and took the vial over.

This is the purple salt in "Purple Cheng Ting, water comes out of rock salt" in "Book of Wei". The salty water in "Notes on the Secret History of the Yuan Dynasty" in "Salty water comes from the south and merges into the Or River" also comes from this.

Therefore, as long as you find the purple salt lake, you can find the Oshui River, and you are more likely to find the ruins.

Of course, it’s not easy to find. After all, many places abroad are not as convenient as at home...

While thinking about it, Li Ding'an closed his eyes and took a nap for almost an hour. The broadcast reminded that the flight had arrived in Ulaanbaatar and was about to land.

"Li Ding'an, why are there so many colorful houses on the hillside? They are so beautiful?"

Pretty ass?

"That's a civilian area... Mongolia has a population of 3.2 million, and 1.7 million of them live in the capital. 1.1 million of them can't afford to buy or even rent a house, so they can only build simple houses. Or take a yurt.”

"Teacher Li, the sky is clearly sunny, why does it seem to be covered with a layer of fog?"

"Because of pollution: Mongolia is too cold, with an average temperature of only 1.5 degrees Celsius throughout the year. The population in Ulan is too dense, and people without buildings can only burn coal and firewood for heating, and the heat lasts at least eight months a year. So the air is very bad..."

"That's it...who is that silver statue?"

"Genghis Khan...it's not silver, it's a stainless steel shell on the outside, and a building on the inside..."

"There are also portraits on the mountain. They are so big... Who is that?"

"It's also Genghis Khan..."

"Where's the sculpture in the middle of the square?"

"It's still Genghis Khan!"

It was the first time for Shu Jinghao to go abroad, and it was the first time for Yu Huiyin to come to Mongolia. Anyway, both of them were very curious and were lying on the window chattering.

"Li Ding'an, you've never been here, how do you know so clearly?"

if not?
This is going abroad, not leaving the village.

"You must take a stroll... Li Ding'an, how is the security here?"

"On the whole, it's okay. There are just a lot of drunk people at night, so try to go out as little as possible. If you have to go out, try not to speak Chinese."

"why?"

"The people here are not very friendly to you..."

"Didn't you say that we donated a lot to them?"

More than just a lot?
Education, medical care, roads, bridges, railways, aviation, industrial equipment, basic support facilities, and even food and material aid whenever there is a snowstorm... From the 1950s to the present, the assistance has continued for more than 70 years, and it has not stopped. Pass.

The results turned out to be eggs.

Shu Jinghao curled her lips: "Isn't this a white-eyed wolf?"

Li Ding'an bared his teeth and smiled, while Wang Yongqian stared at him. "Why are you staring at me? I didn't say that?"

It's true that he didn't say it, but that's what he meant...

When the group got off the plane, they were picked up by the third-level counselor from the Cultural Department of the embassy. He knew Wang Yongqian and was very polite anyway. He said he would help them arrange for them to go to the Air China Hotel next to the embassy.

The group of people got on the bus and the bus drove towards BJ Street, where the embassy is located.

"Li Ding'an, why is it called BJ Street?"

"We built it."

"Why is it so blocked?"

“In a city center within a city center, congestion is normal.”

"Why are there only four lanes? It's quite wide on both sides. Why not widen the road?"

Li Ding'an leaned back lazily: "Waiting for us to build it."

I thought he was joking, but Wang Yongqian didn't say a word?

Yu Huiyin and Shu Jinghao looked at each other: It seems that what Li Ding'an said is the truth.

why is it like this?

In a few words, we arrived at the hotel.

This was an official inspection, and the embassy also arranged a banquet, attended by several counselors from the Cultural Office.

It was quite formal, I didn't drink much, and it ended at about one o'clock.

Yu Huiyin and Shu Jinghao were very excited and wanted to go out for a walk. Li Ding'an also felt bored and took the opportunity to serve as flower protectors.

The hotel sent them a translator. The girl's name was Fan Rong. She lived up to her name and was very beautiful. She was also a top student in the Mongolian Department of Beijing Foreign Languages ​​Institute. She had been a public teacher (teacher) of the Ministry of Education for two years.

School started late in Mongolia, so she had nothing to do for the time being, so she worked part-time as a translator in a hotel. Occasionally the embassy was too busy, and she would also work as a temporary tour guide for official groups for a few days.

They all went to school in the capital, and both were government-sponsored. The three girls immediately had a common topic:
"Fan Rong, you are so outstanding. You are appointed by the ministry just after graduation?"

"It's not bad, I have better luck!"

The girl smiled reservedly, "What about you, you are sent by the government to inspect, right? Which unit?"

"It's an academic exchange!" Yu Huiyin pointed to himself, "I'm in the publicity department, and they are in the cultural tourism industry."

"Why two departments?"

"It's quite complicated."

Fan Rong looked at Li Ding'an who was not far away, and winked at Shu Jinghao: "My boyfriend?"

"No, he is my leader!" Shu Jing shook her head violently, holding Yu Huiyin's hand, "She is!"

"what?"

Fan Rong was stunned: It seems that the three of them are about the same age. The man seems to be younger?
It doesn’t look like it, does it?

She turned her head: Li Ding'an was eating roast mutton in front of a stall, his mouth full of oil.

Biting the meat in his mouth, he pushed it down hard with his right hand. He grabbed a big handful in his left hand and raised it towards them: "It smells so good... Do you want it?"

"want!"

Yu Huiyin and Shu Jing are both foodies, otherwise they wouldn't want to taste the purple salt that can cure cancer.

The two of them ran over, took the skewers, and gave Fan Rong a few more skewers.

It's quite big, probably half a pound of meat, and it's quite fresh.

"It's really cheap. It only costs ten yuan a bunch." Li Ding'an sighed, muttered a few words, and then took out his wallet to pay.

Fan Rong was stunned again: "Is he Mongolian?"

"No, Han!"

"Is he also majoring in Mongolian?"

"No! He's learning Chinese!"

"But why is Mongolian so good?"

"He taught himself more than just Mongolian..." Shu Jinghao slurred with her mouth stuffed with meat, "He can know Uighur (ancient Mongolian), Phasiba, Khitan, and bronze inscriptions..."

what?
Suddenly, Fan Rong felt that the meat in her mouth no longer tasted good. (End of chapter)
