At 11:10 p.m. on October 3, Yunduo and I boarded the train from Xinghai to Tongliao, bought two little mazas of the black heart conductor at a high price, and sat in the corridor between the two carriages.

I wanted to buy a sleeper, but I didn't even have a hard seat. I only got two station tickets. I'm a little frustrated, but the cloud doesn't care. She says she's used to standing without a seat.

In the dirty air, I and the clouds nestled together, started a long-distance attack in the middle of the night, straight to the vast grassland in the far north.

Before I left, I didn't surf the Internet. After several days of thinking, I finally made a difficult decision: after resigning after the festival, I will delete the floating life like a dream from my own button, and let the beauty Qiutong in the real and virtual world pass away forever from my memory.

When I made this decision, I felt a little relaxed, but a little hard to let go.

It's late at night, and the clouds are sleeping on my knees.

I have no sleepiness. I open my eyes to the boundless night outside the window, listen to the rhythmic sound of the train, light a cigarette, think about my years without a navigation mark, the unknown tomorrow and the slow journey of life, the unforgettable Donger in my memory, the cloud girl in front of me, and the Qiutong and floating life in the real and virtual world ……

My heart kept turning and my eyes were a little sour. I closed my eyes gently.

The night is long, the road is long

At 2 p.m. the next day, we arrived at Tongliao Railway Station. Yunduo and I transferred to CMB and continued to go north. The further we went, the more uneven the road was, the wider the vision was, the bluer the sky was, and the fewer people were.

After bumping for more than three hours, we finally got off at a place where we couldn't find the village in front of us and the shop behind us. It was windy and wild all around, and the setting sun was golden. It was a bit desolate and spectacular.

I was at a loss when a young man's cry came from behind me: "sister sister --"

looking back, a thin but strong young man with a black face was riding on a jujube red horse, waving a whip, smiling at us and holding a white horse.

Cloud immediately burst into a bright smile, ran to the young man who jumped off the horse and said: "bater - younger brother --"

it turns out that this is cloud's younger brother, bater, who went to university in Hohhot and came home to pick us up on holiday.

Yunduo and his brother talked and laughed for a while, then came to me and said to bater, "brother, this is big brother Yike, my colleague, who comes to the grassland to play on holiday and wants to live in our house."

Then the cloud said to me, "this is my brother, yunba. We all call him bater. In Mongolian, it means hero. My brother is the eagle flying on the grassland and the little hero in my heart."

Barthel let cloud elder sister boast a little embarrassed, scratched her scalp and bowed politely to me: "Hello, brother Ike, welcome to the grassland."

As soon as I met him, I liked this simple and honest prairie college student bater from my heart. I extended my arm and hugged him: "bater, you are the pride of my sister and the pride of prairie people."

Bater became more and more shy. He turned around and was busy carrying his luggage to his horse. Then he mounted the horse with a beautiful gesture: "sister, let's go. My parents are waiting at home."

Cloud nodded: "OK, you go first, I and big brother Yike will arrive later!"

Barthel nodded at me, then put his legs on the horse's back, and the horse ran away, leaving me and the cloud.

I looked at the clouds and said, "how can we get there?"

"Ride my snow." Cloud said with a smile: "this is my good friend, long time no see, we ride snow home together."

I was a little scared and hesitant. I had never ridden a horse, and I had to ride with the clouds.

The cloud seemed to have guessed my mind and laughed: "silly brother Cluck You sit behind me and hold my waist

With that, the cloud skillfully jumped on the horse and reached out to pull me up.

I didn't feel very good. I put my arm in front of the cloud, but I didn't hold it.

Cloud pursed a smile, waved the whip, crisp sound a "pa -" sound, the horse suddenly trotted up, my body shook, almost flash down, a nervous, busy embrace cloud waist.

"Drive - Snow White, go home, brother Ike, hold on!" Cloud complacently called, accompanied by a bell like laughter, horse step four hoofs, carrying me and cloud, to the depths of the grassland.

When night fell, Yunduo and I finally arrived at Yunduo's home in the depth of Horqin Prairie - not the yurt I imagined, but a new and uniform herdsman settlement supported by the government, with a brick structure bungalow in front and a livestock pen in the backyard.

In Yunduo's home, I was received by Yunduo's VIP class. The dinner was very rich, full of grassland flavor specialties. Although I was not used to that kind of milk flavor, seeing Yunduo's parents' simple smiling face, I just let my appetite accept these new varieties. I drank mare's milk and chewed cheese snacks vigorously, making a very delicious appearance.It seems that I suddenly realize something in the eyes of my parents' eyes. I can't help but feel uneasy
