? One winter many years ago, when Old Town of Lijiang was the hottest, my husband and I got married. Young and energetic, we decided to go hiking in Lijiang with our bags and have a different honeymoon trip.

? Although Old Town of Lijiang has its own characteristics, it didn't leave me a stunning impression. On the contrary, the Tiger Leaping Gorge nearby attracted me, because it is said to be one of the deepest canyons in the world.

? We excitedly booked a car and decided to go hiking in Tiger Leaping Gorge early the next morning.

? Lao Yang, a local driver, picked us up in an old van, and six people were picked up by one * * * to carpool to Tiger Leaping Gorge.

? There are two foreigners in the first row, we sit in the middle, and there are two young people in the back row.

? We chatted with two young people and exchanged information about the road books we found on the Internet. They are colleagues in IT, and they went to Tiger Leaping Gorge for the second time and gave us a lot of good advice. For example, where is the most beautiful scenery? A local farmer named Mr. Zhang set up a checkpoint to collect fees forcibly. The homestay with the best accommodation conditions is Tianas in the middle of Tiger Leaping Gorge ...

? I didn't sleep well the day before. The driver Lao Yang drove the van as a racing car on the rugged mountain road. I soon got carsick and fell asleep in my seat.

? They talked about their friend Justin, whom they met on foot last time. A foreigner in the front row turned around smartly and asked in surprise, "Do you know me? How do you know my name is Justin? "

? "We are talking about another Justin. What a coincidence that your name is Justin?"

? ……

? The foreigner was very happy, took out a hiking route map and joined the exchange.

? Tiger Leaping Gorge is well-known among overseas backpackers. At the earliest, some foreign tourists came to Lijiang to travel and stumbled upon Tiger Leaping Gorge. They went back and spontaneously publicized it on social networking sites, and Tiger Leaping Gorge became the most popular outdoor hiking route.

? At that time, the Tiger Leaping Gorge was completely wild, and it had not been formally developed, and there were no facilities. The canyon was steep in depth and the mountain road was rugged and long, which was very suitable for hiking exploration and very in line with the aesthetics of international tourists. Two foreigners also listened to the recommendation of their friends and came on foot specially.

? The two young people also translated their road books to two foreigners, and another foreigner with a beard named Bob took out his notebook and recorded it carefully.

? At the entrance of the tiger jump, the two youths said that they had already passed this route, and this time they were going to take another more dangerous route. We said goodbye, took our backpacks and took the first step towards the mountains of Tiger Leaping Gorge.

? It's dawn, and many backpackers have hurried on the narrow and rugged mountain road.

? The stars in the sky are fading away, and it can be seen that a beautiful sunny day is coming.

? We walked in a hurry, trying to make the pace even. Going up and down the mountain, the high and low mountains are slowly thrown behind us. There are still some Bo Xue left on the mountain road, and the exhaled gas has turned into white fog. In order to get to Tianas on this night, we left in a hurry at first, and soon, we broke out in a sweat, which made my carsickness much better.

? Jinsha River flows gently, and it is hard to imagine that it will become wild and surging ahead.

? The sun is rising slowly. The blue sky in Yunnan is deep and clear, and it looks beautiful against the clumps of red leaves on the top of the mountain.

? "Let's have a rest when we get to the top of that mountain!" Sir suggested.

? Justin and Bob both agree. We ran like crazy and climbed the mountain with all our might. Looking around from the top of the mountain, all around are rolling mountains, which are magnificent. While enjoying the beautiful scenery, we sat on the big stone on the roadside at the top of the mountain and gasped.

? Because I am easily allergic to ultraviolet rays, my husband took out sunscreen and took some pictures on my face. Then I ran to the bushes, trying to find me a bigger leaf to keep out the sun.

? Justin saw that I didn't talk to them all the way, thinking that I didn't understand English, and began to gossip.

? "Wow, she looks like a queen. Andy is always circling around her." He said to Bob.

? Bob gave me a look and replied, "Andy just said they just got married."

? Justin added, "It seems that he loves her more."

? what？

? I didn't expect two big men to dare to judge us in front of us. It's rude!

? I was a little unhappy in my heart, but I suddenly had a bad taste: what else will they talk about?

? So, I looked calm and calm, and slowly took out water to drink.

? Two little girls came to us from another path among the trees. They should be two sisters, with red faces, wearing beautiful and grand Naxi jackets and pleated skirts.

? "Aunt, do you want to take pictures?" The older girl held up her skirt with both hands and showed me her beautiful national costume.

? "We can take a group photo together. It's five yuan each. This is the highest place in our Tiger Leaping Gorge, and the scenery is the most beautiful. Leave a souvenir!"

? She begged me.

? The little girl stood behind her sister with a runny nose and looked at us timidly.

? I looked at Justin and Bob. They waved.

? The two girls looked at me expectantly. I raised my camera and said, "You two sisters are already beautiful. I'll take some pictures of you and give you the same money."

? My sister quickly pulled my sister over and taught her to pull up her skirt. Seeing her dirty little face, she quickly lifted the skirt and wiped it on her face.

? The two of them stood in the same movement, revealing old sneakers with holes and mud under the lifted skirt.

? They were nervous and looked at my camera with a sad face.

? I can't say something like "smile".

? There are no families around here. In order to earn some money, these two little girls probably set out here a long time ago to drum up business.

? I took a few photos carefully and showed them to the older girl. She said shyly, "Oh, we forgot to laugh. Why don't you take a new photo? "

? I said, "No, it's real. It looks good." I paid her the money, and she immediately took her sister and ran to the hikers who came behind.

? Two foreigners started gossiping again: "Why did she give them money?" "She is probably rich" ...

? Mr. Wang ran back and picked up a big yellow leaf for me. I covered it on my forehead and the party moved on.

? Down the hill, we heard the rushing waves of the river in the distance. We strode down the hill excitedly, and Mr. Wang sang loudly.

? "Wave rush, wave flow! Wan Li never stops talking ... "

? I also sang along excitedly.

? The Jinsha River traveled thousands of miles here, and Yulong Snow Mountain and Haba Snow Mountain stood in the way. The originally calm and peaceful river was furious and struggled to collide, which created the Tiger Leaping Gorge with high mountains and deep valleys.

? Does this deafening sound of waves indicate that we are going to the core of Tiger Leaping Gorge?

? Mr. Wang stopped, looked through the road book and said, "It's still early. This is just the beginning of the rapidity of Tiger Leaping Gorge. You can't see the most thrilling scenery of Tiger Leaping Gorge until Tianas."

? "How long will it take to get to Tianas?" I asked.

? "It's estimated that it's going to be dark!"

? Sure enough, the rushing roar just came from a falling yellow waterfall in the river.

? This river gap is already very shocking, and I can't imagine how magnificent the torrent of tiger jumping will be!

? As we walked along, we watched, and unconsciously came to the time when the sun began to set westward.

? The sun gradually converged its dazzling edge, and the sky was still blue. The cliff hanging over our heads is messy and rough, but it reflects the warm and soft winter sunshine and falls on the path piled up by gravel and stones at our feet. It is beautiful.

? The bell rang gently, and from the corner of the path where the light and shadow could not shine, a large group of goats came face to face with us. They seem to have been used to strange hikers for a long time and passed us calmly. And we stopped in surprise.

? A group of rolling clouds with small horns brushed our legs and passed slowly, one after another, in an endless stream. This scene is too dreamy. Especially the lamb inside, the milk bleating and chasing after its mother, makes people's hearts melt, and I really want to hold it up and touch it.

? Bob couldn't help touching the soft little head of a little goat, who stared at him with wide eyes and cocked his head. Justin said, "Wow, it's so cute. I really want one."

? The shepherd appeared at the back of the flock with a short stick in his hand.

? The gentleman shouted, "fellow villager, do you sell your lamb?"

? While driving the sheep, the shepherd shouted back, "Not for sale! The lamb still needs its mother! " Said and drove the sheep away.

? We accelerated forward. At sunset, I met an English couple with children. The man wrapped a finger-eating child of two or three years old on his chest, and the woman carried a sleeping baby on the top of her backpack.

? I thought, "Wow, that's cool! I will do the same in the future! "

? They are also going to Tianas. The famous homestay is not far ahead, and we can vaguely see its white roof.

? At the sight of the roof, the strength I had accumulated all over my body suddenly collapsed. I suddenly felt pain in my legs, feet, waist and body.

? Walking to Tianas, I went to my room to lie down for a while to recover my strength, and then went downstairs to find food.

? The boss is a capable and talkative woman named Sue. It is said that she was originally a hiker. Because she liked Tiger Leaping Gorge and felt that it contained huge business opportunities, she stayed and started this homestay combining Chinese and Western.

? When I went downstairs, Sue was cooking the best honey pancakes in the open kitchen. The guests were all hikers, sitting in the restaurant chatting in twos and threes.

? I went to see Sue making pancakes. She smiled and said to me, "Your husband said he would look around and come back soon."

? Honey pancakes are similar to improved pizza, and they are the most popular food here. I helped her beat the eggs in honey and mix them well.

? "It's so remote here, how can you stay?" I asked Sue.

? Sue thought for a moment, then slowly answered, "Where is life?"? It is very quiet here, but if you look closely, every morning and sunset are different, and different people come and go, which is also very interesting. "

? Her answer is very poetic, perhaps only those who really calm down can have such a realm.

? I watched Sue make pancakes while listening to Bob and Justin gossiping there.

? "Oh, here comes the queen. But where did Andy go? " Justin said.

? "Andy seems to be out." Bob looked around.

? "It won't go to look for any treasures for his queen again? Ha ha. I won't treat my girlfriend like this, it will only make her more proud. " Justin continued to express his views.

? "Hey, brother, I don't think so. If I had been nicer to my wife, she might not have left. Unfortunately, I was too young at that time. " Bob retorted a little sadly.

? I set my ears on end, hoping to hear more stories.

? "Oh, I'm sorry. However, why did she leave? " Justin asked.

? "My wife and I have been friends since childhood, and we may be too familiar with each other, so I always ignore her and break her heart. I haven't shaved since she left. " Bob tugged at his beard with his fingers and said, "I'll shave it off when I can start a new life."

? They fell silent and drank tea quietly.

? "This place is really nice. There are many beautiful places in China. But you have to learn some Mandarin, otherwise it will be difficult to communicate. Andy is really a warm-hearted person. " Justin, change the subject.

? Bob nodded. "He has good taste, too. Have you seen his shoes?"

? Justin sighed with exaggeration: "God, his shoes are so cool. I wonder where he bought them?" I really want a pair! "

? I couldn't help laughing.

? Mr. Wang's shoes were bought in the wholesale market on the first floor of Kowloon Mall. The local shoemaking workshop in Jinhua Town was hand-made. The style was very rough, and the toe of the shoes was exaggerated upward, like the horn of a rhinoceros. I often laugh at these shoes for making him look like a strange cowboy in the west. I didn't expect to win the favor of two foreigners.

? Justin and Bob looked at me in surprise, wondering what was going on.

? When Mr. Wang came back, Sue just baked honey pancakes, mixed a pot of salad, and made spaghetti and fried rice with eggs. The hungry travelers immediately started, and Bob said it was delicious.

? I looked at the light table, and suddenly I wanted to eat hot pot. Without hot pot, the miscellaneous pot dishes in the small street outside Lijiang ancient town would do. I miss Chengdu.

? Mr. Wang brought information that the local farmer "Mr. Zhang" who set up a toll gate privately was about two kilometers ahead. He blocked a road through a narrow valley with a fence, which was the only way to go to the river to see the rapids and waves. He stood there and refused to open the door until each person charged ten yuan for the toll. He seemed to be a very difficult person.

? Although ten yuan is not much, it is shameful to rob people of money and buy and sell hard. everybody
