75 A trip to Xining

What is the meaning of travel?

What is the meaning of a trip that goes by and walks?

That day, after the night shift, just as I was about to make up for my sleep, my friend Liangzi and the director called me one after another and asked me to go out for a trip. Travel was something I always wanted to do, but due to various helplessness and affairs, I rarely had time to truly fulfill my travel plans. I had never really traveled since I was a child. The greed in my heart began to cause trouble, so I agreed to the invitation of the two friends in a very reluctant manner.

I hurriedly stuffed some essential items into a backpack. Before I even had time to wash my face, I washed downstairs and got into Liangzi's strong second-hand Jetta. I only realized in the car that they were going to was Xining. I had a lot of curiosity in my heart about this city that I didn't know well.

After buying some bread and water in the supermarket, the four of us set off from Jiayuguan. Another young man, he was Xiaobai, a boy who looked very much like a pet, had his motivation to ride to Xining and then to Lanzhou. When we set off from Jiayuguan, the weather was clear and we all wore thin short-sleeved sportswear and small suits. In this way, a journey of walking began. We got on the highway and the speed was speeding at 120km/h. The four of us were excited. In addition, there was no CD in the car, so we had to take turns singing to add some color to the journey.

At about 3:00 p.m. that day, we had already arrived in Zhangye. After filling the car with air, we continued to get on the road. However, it happened that unexpectedly. It turned out that there was no expressway to Xining. Liangzi and the director seemed very upset. Xiaobai and I didn't care anyway. We both seemed to follow the direction of the carriage and could do anything. Although there was no expressway, we both swear at first, so we continued to move towards Xining; we got on g22

After National Highway 7, I seemed to understand how unpleasant it was to not have a highway. The car could not run at all. If we drove to Xining at that speed, it would probably be late at night. Liangzi in the driver's seat remorse and said he didn't want to go to Xining. The director and I were firmly stanced to advise Liangzi to strengthen our beliefs and not to give up until Xining. After walking about 20 kilometers, we both began to be discouraged. The idea of ​​driving to Xining became increasingly unreliable.

After some argumentation, we all gave up the idea of ​​going to Xining and set our goal as the Biandukou scenic spot, which is not very far ahead. The car still ran forward desperately and drove towards Biandukou. In the area near Biandukou, the temperature suddenly became colder, and there was a vast white snow outside. Our mood fluctuated with the changes in the temperature, and there was a little incredible excitement.

When we arrived at Bindukou, we all got out of the car, ran to the foot of the mountain, looked at a white world to take photos, uploaded the photos to our circle of friends, and said this to be Tibet, which surprised our friends. Wearing short-sleeved shirts in such weather, the director looked really cool, and I admired the director's cold-resistant physique.

It was almost dark, so we returned the same route, planning to rush back to Zhangye and go to our alma mater. When we arrived in Zhangye, it was already dark, and we returned to the former campus again with joy and longing. My mood was uneasy, and every building on the campus seemed so friendly and familiar. I couldn't help but pick up my phone and take pictures of the apartment I had lived in before and the cement road I had walked before...

Looking at the schoolgirls coming and going on campus, we burst into tears. We didn't even have the chance to cry. If we were not restricted, the saliva would have been a long time ago. We moved from the South District to the North District in the night with great enthusiasm. Near the stadium, we met our former classmate. Her name was Wang Yue. She recognized me sharply and called my name. I was shocked in an instant. But what made me depressed was that the person I recognized was me, so why did I look for Liangzi when chatting? Haha. But being able to meet on the same campus was originally a fate.

After leaving school, we savored the taste of spicy lamb hooves in the barbecue restaurant in front of the school, which was very refreshing! Although my teeth were not good, I had a great time. After dinner, we all started looking for all the opportunities to get the girl. Everyone was in heat with their mobile phones. Obviously, I had no situation at all. The three of them had made appointments with girls one after another. Although the ending was not very ideal, there was still a qualitative difference between the situation and the situation.

At around 10 o'clock in the evening, the director came back in shame. He heard that he was scared back by the girl's appearance. Three single young men and a married man started Zhangye's nightlife in helplessness. After accidentally learning about a relatively vulgar place, the four of them bravely entered. As for what it was, I won't mention it anymore. In short, it was a place with bright lights and wine.

After coming out of that unelegant place, I went to an elegant but vulgar place, which was the foot bath shop. This was my first night of nightlife. I rarely had such an opportunity to indulge in this way. I spent a sleepless night in accordance with the man's colorful mind. However, such nights cannot be misunderstood. I just took off all my clothes and took a hot bath.

The next day, I slept for dozens of minutes and woke up the first one. I woke up the three of them, ate a beef vendor in the city, and went straight to the high-speed rail station.

We got on the high-speed train to Xining, and we were sleepy and arrived in Xining during our sleep. We were covered in goose bumps blowing from Xining, and suddenly felt energetic. After leaving the platform, we were shocked by the high-speed rail station in Xining. Yes, this is the largest station I have ever seen. It looks tall and tall, standing there like a giant, majestic. We had to excitedly take out our mobile phones and take photos again so that people all over the world know that we were in Xining.

Our first stop was Taer Temple. With the friendly help of the local people, we successfully found Taer Temple, but it was not as easy as it was. It took about an hour to get from the train station to Taer Temple. When we arrived at Taer Temple, we saw the Tibetan Buddhist buildings, believers wrapped in monk's robes, and a few traces of green smoke. I looked at everything there with awe, and it seemed that I had arrived in another world. Tibetan culture invisibly gave me a mysterious power. When I was in it, my heart seemed to be purified. The shutter of the camera witnessed my curiosity and love for Tibetan culture. This was the first time.

After the trip to Ta'er Temple, we used high-tech means to take a hotel worth a dollar on Meituan. Before we went there, I really couldn't figure out what kind of hotel would be worth a dollar. After searching in the cold wind of Xining for several hours, I finally found a hotel next to a remote community. I was shocked! The hotel worth a dollar is indeed too creative. It is a small house like a container, and there are many such "containers" in a room. Although it is not as comfortable as a luxury hotel, this creativity has already convinced me.

In the evening, Liangzi and Xiaobai went out, and the director and I stayed in the hotel. In this encounter, I met a girl from Pingliang. We played table tennis together for two hours and played with beautiful fellow villagers. We were really drunk. It seemed like we were back to our youth! Hahaha! I haven’t been so happy for a long time, I was sweating profusely and enjoying myself. I perfectly demonstrated my skills.

I reluctantly returned to the empty living room. The director and I were chatting in the dark night. It happened to rain, and the rain dripped against the rooftop, making a crisp sound of water drops. This is the scene I like, loneliness is poetic, comfort is regretful, and old is full of tears.

At night, I slept very soundly in that container. I slept until after nine o'clock the next day. I was still the first to get up, and then I urged the three of them to get up. I hurriedly left the hotel, hurriedly intentionally, and I didn't have the nerve to say hello to the beautiful girl from the fellow villagers when I left. If I had the fate, I might be able to see you again...

According to the plan, it was time to go back. We headed straight to the train station, but an accident happened again. We didn’t buy a ticket in advance, and there was no ticket at the station. However, we bought the high-speed train without a ticket, but it didn’t leave at around 6 pm. This accident gave us several hours of encounter time.

Because we had different opinions, we had to divide it into two groups to get in close contact with Xining. The director and Liangzi and Xiaobai were together.

The first stop that the director and I chose was the Qinghai Provincial Museum, but unfortunately, it happened to be closed on Monday, so we had to take a photo in front of the museum and go to the next stop. We met a sailor in front of the museum. After chatting for a few words, we felt very speculative and prepared to go together. The three of us followed our mobile phones to find the nearby People's Park and Nanchan Temple.

The peach blossoms in the People's Park are bright and dazzling, and the children are playing happily in the playground, leaving me with harmonious memories in every corner.

Nanchan Temple and Fazhuang Temple lean against each other on the mountain, which is quite like two close friends. With awe of the gods, we burn incense, worship, and make wishes in our hearts, begging the gods to bless our ideals. As believers of Buddha, I believe that the gods are kind and will surely bless the suffering people.
