There was no Seda in the original plan of this trip, and if I went to take a detour, adhering to the tenet of "coming to come", I decided to go again, just for the sake of the Seda Ronggou Wuming Buddhist College, which was closed for three years and reopened.
Leaving Lianbaoye, follow G227 to arrive in Yangtang County that night, the signal on the road is very poor, no one thinks of booking tickets in advance, and they all think that they can enter at any time in the off-season in October. When it was time for the dishes to be served in Yangtang, I searched casually, opened the reservation applet and saw that there were no tickets all day tomorrow, so I had to go directly to the ticket office in Seda County tomorrow to see if I could buy offline tickets.
In the morning, continue to walk G227 out of Yangtang and turn into G548 from Aba Tibetan area into Ganzi Tibetan area, which is different from the vast expanse of Aba, and there is a little more beautiful and graceful here. The weather is sunny all the way to the Tibetan village watchtower is picturesque, arrive at the Jinma Grassland Tourism Distribution Center at noon, Xiaoxi got off the bus and went straight to the ticket hall, close to the window to ask, no ticket, can only wait for 6 o'clock in the afternoon to make an online reservation for tomorrow's ticket into the ditch, or tomorrow morning at 8 o'clock to buy a ticket for the day after tomorrow, ask the reason, October is the Qing period of the Buddhist Academy, the current is limited. Foolishly came out, found a place to live, and waited to grab tickets, everyone comforted each other while reviewing carelessness.
The hotel sat and waited until 5:55, Qi brushed out his mobile phone to open the applet, and after a fierce operation, he finally grabbed it at one o'clock at noon, Xiaoxi at five o'clock in the afternoon, only Xi'er grabbed a loneliness, sighed on the side, and joked: "I don't see that you have any wisdom, providence, hahaha." Xi'er rolled her eyes: "I'll have fun tomorrow." "When I went out to eat, I met several eldest sisters who went in together, and I was secretly glad.
Early in the morning, Xi'er braved the sub-zero cold to line up to buy a ticket for the first flight at half past eight the next day, and praised herself in exchange for group ridicule and joy.
At noon, before leaving, he said that they would go in to find out if there were any other channels, and strive to get in today. Sending the two away, the bored two collapsed in the room, and they were drowsy, Xiaoxi's mobile phone rang, and he called to say that he could enter, ** and the positioning has been sent to Xi'er, but the unreliable ** did not answer. Konishi got up and went to the next door to wake up Xi'er, who was sleeping in the dark. After a rush to clean up, after a little consideration, I decided to go with Xi'er.
The two drove to a small street on the periphery of the Buddhist Institute more than 20 kilometers away from the county seat according to the location sent, the contact person did not answer, and was not completely awake and was a little confused, and saw a young Tibetan guy at the opposite three-way intersection talking to the person in a cloud a license plate on the side of the road, approached and asked if it was really a scalper, and the couple in the cloud a car also planned to enter the Buddhist college, and negotiated ** 150 yuan per person. Think about it can go in, find who is not the same, after discussing and parking the car, the two of them got into the car of Yun A, driven by the Tibetan guy, and soon the car drove into a loess flying mountain road, the road met the pass, the young man said hello and let go, Xiaoxi secretly thought that this is still an industrial chain, twenty minutes later the car stopped at the foot of a barren mountain.
The young man made a **, and after a while, three motorcycles drove down the hillside, and the four of them looked at each other, and the eldest brother in Yunnan decided to drive back to the exit with the Tibetan guy to wait for his wife, so Xiaoxi had a single one, and Xi'er and the petite Yunnan sister had one. A step on the car driver brother instructed to hug his waist, has not come back to his senses, the motorcycle is like an arrow off the string of the gallop out, never expected, the foot of the mountain is so steep, in addition to the grass gravel and cattle and sheep walked through the mud pit, there is no serious road to be found, in the slope of sixty or seventy on the mountain teeth, from time to time will also skid, all rely on the rider brother legs left and right support to not even people with the car to the bottom of the mountain, in addition to the roar of the engine is the whistling wind, At this time, Xia Xiaoxi was not only instinctively hugging his little brother's waist, his mind was blank, his bones were about to fall apart, and there was only one feeling in his heart: My life is over! It's easy to turn over a hill and come again, Xiaoxi is already in a cold sweat, the driver brother actually sang a mountain song, add full horsepower, the car jumped into the air and took off on the steep slope, the little heart instantly hung in the air, closed his eyes, and shouted for help......After suffering for half an hour, the motorcycle finally stopped at the top of a mountain, and almost didn't stand firm the moment he stepped out of the car, his legs were stunned, his hands trembled, and he finally escaped from life. Xi'er's car also arrived later, they were all safe, and their hearts fell. The three of them laughed at each other, and said, "We're also friends of fate."
Looking down at the foot of the mountain, the recess surrounded by the mountains is a whole dense cluster of small houses, the sun shines on the roof at five o'clock in the afternoon, reflecting a white light, and a large number of prayer flags on the hillside not far away are hunting and flying in the wind. I told him that he had come in from the back mountain, and everyone made an appointment to meet in the mandala.
Stepping on the gravel path and slowly walking to the bottom of the mountain recess, the mountain recess is full of monks' houses, wooden boards, iron sheets, cement covers, messy and simple, the more you go down, the conditions of the monks' houses seem to be better, the aluminum alloy windows are hung with curtains, and you can see the washing machine and refrigerator, step by step to the bottom of the mountain, the red house is as dense as an ant nest, the lama in red robes, Juemu hesitates silently on the road, everything here exudes a peace away from the hustle and bustle of the world. Walked to the central square and said goodbye to Yunnan sister, Xiaoxi and Xi'er sat in the empty square to rest, Hulala a flock of birds flew over the golden top, a long staircase behind the hall is the road to the top of the mountain mandala, people can only sigh, lying on the phone to urge them to hurry, the sun will set to see the night view.
Climbing such a long staircase at an altitude of more than 4000 is a real test of physical strength, step by step, breathing, heartbeat, stop-and-go, and finally come up, overlooking the panorama, the red monks' houses spread all over the mountain, shining holy light in the sunset, like a baby, pure, lying peacefully in the arms of the mountains....
The four difficult brothers finally met again, and Xi'er was about to say what happened just now, but she was interrupted with a disgusted face: "Can you be reliable, ** don't answer, WeChat doesn't reply, the one you found for you doesn't need to go back to the mountain, you can enter directly at the main entrance, yes, it also dragged Xiaoxi down." Looking at Xi'er with an aggrieved face, everyone couldn't help laughing.
Walk along the plank road to the highest point of the observation deck, quietly waiting for the arrival of the twilight, the sun gradually sinks into the twilight, the lights in all the houses in the distance are lit up one by one, the night pulls down the ink blue curtain, a little bit of light yellow light, like the starry Tianhe, in the ethereal night sky lit up countless Buddha lanterns, the river is all the way, the stars are shining, the glimmer merges into the ocean, condenses into the power of ten thousand jun, and spreads the sky ......
Walk all the way down from the top of the mountain to the exit, looking back on this day despite various conditions, it is still complete, a shimmer of light in a monk's house on the side of the road, an elongated shadow is reflected in the curtains, holding Buddhist beads is worshipping reverently, listening carefully to the sound of chanting coming out, may the sea of suffering turn back, early enlightenment, and gradually drift away from the distant Sanskrit sound melted into the quiet night.
For this Pure Land of Buddhism, curious intruders cannot fully understand these practitioners who have been willing to endure pure suffering for decades for their faith and chant sutras every day, but as far as faith is concerned, no matter when and where, as long as the heart sticks to it, it will give strength, just like the warm lamp in the heart, which can always illuminate the heart in the dark night...
