New Year's Tour: Love in Lijiang

10000 individuals 10000 went to Lijiang reason, and I, somewhere seemed destined to come to complete the "girl" and Jeff's love story. In the end, we do not have to hear Naxi ancient music, did not go on foot Tiger Leaping Gorge, ... ... when I talked with his stare in the sunrise and sunset, I finally understand, life can be as simple as the original.
Sheung day is the last day of 2002. At dusk, from Chengdu to catch the train to Panzhihua, poor air-conditioning almost frozen my half dead. The next morning wake up, the cabin has been overflowing in Panzhihua warm sunshine, I was to the point of the sun on the bright man, so a good mood to death, and the carriage of all those who meet by chance each other a "Happy New Year", also pray for Looking at his own in 2003 is the same sunny.

Panzhihua bus to Lijiang from a few people, and invariably the local people, to see me carrying a towering backpack, a traveling dress, people invariably cast surprised and curious eyes. The bus has been winding through the mountains and arrived at their destination, it is 21 o'clock before. One turn, the eyes suddenly see the light, we saw lights far away, I would hold herself back any emotion beside the locals asked: "That is the Lijiang it?", "Yes ah, younger sister, and that is Lijiang." Looked far from the , its a good peace, beauty, against the background of the stars in the sky, the quiet, like in wait for me ... ...

I live in a friend's "Xiaofeng Inn." Since the host is a pair of lovers with my own age, "Xiao-Feng" is the boy's name, and moderate and simple; girls and I are fellow, there is a pair of talking big eyes, quiet and unobtrusive. Inn is an ordinary Naxi courtyard, just opened for business soon, it is a new very clean and tidy. Hospital, from all over the Mix Kan positive Huan, I put down the luggage, and soon joined them. Jeff is a group of people most of the most ass of a cow from the "treasure island" of Taiwan, with from Guangzhou, Hunan, Chongqing, Sichuan, came all the way and attract more than a day early to me. JEFF volunteered to take me out to walk around and so, we follow the meandering stream in the town right up to the murmur of the Square Street ago, sitting in the street of small shops have already closed the door and enjoy the beauty of the night in Lijiang. Square Street on New Year's bonfire party had just dispersed, according to the moonlight slanting to come, diarrhea at least one place. Some Naxi old people sitting under the banyan trees, Jeff said that afternoon there will be many elderly people gathered this, singing their unique ethnic music, no music, no stage, no host, there are only long years of the formation of a tacit agreement. He said that the scene is very spectacular, very touched by people. I was attracted by the eyes of Jeff truly yours, amazing how in real life there is such a trivial moved? The first day in Lijiang, I have some savor to the reason why so many people reluctant to part of it. The next day got up early, because, and Jeff had arranged to beam river town. Lijiang hazy and lazy morning, quietly sleeping at the foot of the Yulong fresh air incomparable. We are to "Dongba House" rented a bike, Jeff is not likely to ride, and I simply can not compare, and good along the way and the cars are small, not anything to happen.

Beam River, little known, but few people to, but its history is said to be more than the Lijiang long thick. Riding about 40 minutes, the immediate emergence of a jagged residential areas, it does not like Lijiang, small bridges, Canbai with the showing of a turbulent run-down has left it.

Into the town's narrow roads and a narrow one, Jeff hit the road on several occasions came close to people's walls. I hold back laughter, all apparent seriousness, said: "I did not see that here in Yunnan Province Zuozuo estates are key protected cultural relics, you may have to be careful someone will sue you at the destruction of heritage ah!" Carter, I do not know from where sprang a few piglets, the first blind blind brain Zhizhuang come to us. Just at that moment, I have a foot, the hand brake, parking, all in one, and consciously pose quite chic. Jeff was anxious running around in circles, Wawataijiao, finally threw in a wonderful. I laughed next to the enjoyment of a few fellow, Jeff do not angry, climbed from the ground up and Han Han patted head, saying: "This stuff be properly trained in the gym, I did not expect it so hard."

There is also a town similar to the Square Street of Lijiang dam son, sitting better street people, a few old people playing chess in the trees, a few big sister in the side of the side of the pull wool while engaged in small talk, then the past is an aunt of " chicken bean jelly beans "stall. We are all hungry, and lay down a bike straight away grass jelly. Unfortunately, mum said that today business is special is good, there are only a bowl of. Jeff politely give me, I know from Taiwan, he also likes the folk snacks, but also pushed to him. Then aunt speak: "You lovers see how so many things ah? A person is not half enough." "Ma'am, we ... ..." I can not wait to differentiate but do not know how to say we go, look at Jeff, his face The schadenfreude, "Yes, ma'am're right." smiling, they themselves eat on the. So I do not Guannameduo, pick up the chopsticks and eat. Is really delicious, it is regrettable that only a bowl, looking for a restaurant between the "gain another victory," ma'am, if we are to dispel the idea of: "how would there be a restaurant here, we are at home to eat, I also sell bean jelly a snacks money. "While an empty stomach, and the aunt was really interesting to chat, and she told me expatiated pig at home before the world of the eight small Zhuzai; little boy ready to get married New Year, ask your folks came over and getting together; There are a fever not seen a good little grandson yesterday, to close a share to go to next, "Longquan Temple" to pray ... ... a look back, Jeff and I also like listening relish. The ordinary irreducible ordinary life is very far away from us very far, while the town's people is full of life. Inadvertently, Jeff pulled my hand, I did not refuse, because I know he and I moved like a ... ...

Back to Lijiang is 19:00. I take Jeff to eat a local ubiquitous "casserole with rice", this rice is actually very simple, using the local "chicken beans", add some sausage in the casserole rice steamed inside, eat chili when the collocation point on the line. Jeff tells me, said: "girl, you know, I love this rice, it is very simple, is to give to eat without getting tired. If I have money, and some every day, Garton supper, eat casserole rice! "After hearing these words, I almost never betrayed a shocking ignorance, quips:" You Offer on this point ah! "

Jeff and I are with the hing the emotional, even clubbing is no exception, walked in the streets of joy in someone's light's go sit in the shade. Lijiang, the bar is quiet and serene, and only music and wine, clubbing is important here, a feeling, a state of mind. Out the window, the people in the village through the water door to hang a lantern glowing red stream mapping of one of the Ambilight, but also reflected on the faces of the window two innocently ... ...

Is the share of their true inner feelings at this time seems to germination. Later, we went to the stars eternal floor. Lijiang, the highest point standing, the sky close to me close, each star seems to have been within reach. Suddenly remembered that he had never seen the stars seemed to for many years, and such a simple thing, I even ignored for many years, life is not, there are many simple and fun things I have forgotten it similarly? Like, and Jeff's love, it is a non-mixed feelings of any impurities, which is two to share a bowl of "chicken bean jelly beans," the concern is the country roads riding the intimate hand, is jokingly bicker with each other's happiness, Silence is silent moment touched the hearts of ... ... At this moment, I can thoroughly understand Lijiang, to understand it over the centuries in the past, understand the simple pleasure of its charm.

10000 individuals 10000 went to Lijiang reason, and I, somewhere seemed destined to come to complete the "girl" and Jeff's love story. In the end, we do not have to listen to Naxi ancient music, did not go to Tiger Leaping Gorge on foot, but did not go to Jade Dragon Snow Mountain, Lijiang, we just indulge in the ancient and the embrace of peace. I like to stroll hand in hand with him in every one shop, each a side street, hit the owner of hospitality but hit it up on the chat, listen to their stories from different places; I love the afternoon soaking in the river, point, a cup of coffee in Yunnan Province, I have deliberately brought about by reading children's books, or leaning against Jeff arms, two Banzhao grimace, holding a digital camera self-timer, "according to Big Head"; or else leisurely flowing hair on the front of a daze, thin body odor for this revive a feeling of innocence and warmth. In my meeting with his stare in the sunrise and sunset, I finally understand, life can be as simple as the original.

Lijiang almost a year away, I know that when I go again, will most certainly see, hear many "girl" and Jeff's story: that sitting in a crowded street looking at their border, then the total In the river one of the book is that they spend an afternoon, then in the "Jie Li" Drink the local wine produced in their territories, that stands in front of the night is their eternal, that passion kissing in a crowd of It is also their.
