Chapter 480 Namtso Lake

Chapter 480 Namtso Lake
When the evening breeze blew across the lake and blew in front of the car, Yan Jiekuang and the children felt very comfortable. The sky was full of stars and there was a big moon. Although Yan Jiekuang didn't know where this was, it did not prevent him and the children from enjoying dinner by the lake.

Yan Jiekuang caught two big fish, so he built an earthen stove and started cooking by the lake. Chen Liang and Chen Fang also ran to a small hill not far away to help pick up a lot of dry firewood. Soon the fragrance came from the big pot. Yan Jiekuang really wanted to drink today, so he set up a folding table and folding chairs by the lake. He also put a small quilt on a folding chair and put his daughter in it.

Yan Jiekuang was drinking his own wine while Chen Liang and Chen Fang were eating their meals. Yan Jiekuang said, "It will taste better if you mix the fish soup with the rice. Eat slowly, it's a big pot."

While eating, Chen Liang asked, "Boss, what kind of fish is this? It's delicious." Chen Fang was speechless, but nodded in agreement.

Yan Jiekuang didn't know what kind of fish it was, so he said, "I don't know either. It looks a bit like a carp, but it's longer and thinner than a carp. It's good to eat."

Yan Jiekuang used a small bowl to fill a bowl of fish soup and fed it to Nannan mouthful by mouthful. Nannan squinted her eyes and ate happily.

Yan Jiekuang looked at his cell phone and found no signal at all, so he gave up the idea of ​​calling home.

Yan Jiekuang looked at Nannan, wondering why her little face had plateau redness? She had only been here for a few days. Yan Jiekuang then took a closer look at Chen Liang and Chen Fang's faces and burst out laughing. These two little guys also had plateau redness, but it was not obvious. In comparison, Nannan's face was better.

Chen Liang raised his head, looked at Yan Jiekuang and asked, "Big Brother, what are you laughing at?"

"It's nothing, I just see that your little faces are developing like the kids here, you all have little rosy cheeks now." Yan Jiekuang said.

Chen Liang smiled widely and said, "It's okay, Da, this is what makes me like the people here, otherwise they always laugh at me for being so delicate and tender."

"Who said that to you? How come I didn't know?" Yan Jiekuang asked.

Chen Liang said: "It's just a classmate I took with you. I feel embarrassed for saying that."

"Liangzi, has it been hard for you to follow Da along the way? Do you regret following Da?" Yan Jiekuang asked, feeling a little sorry for these children.

Chen Liang shook his head vigorously and said, "It's not bitter. Being with Da is my happiest time. I will always follow Da. Wherever Da goes, I will go."

At this time, Chen Fang also raised her head and said, "Me too, me too."

Yan Jiekuang smiled and said, "Don't worry, I will always be with you until you grow up."

The two children then felt at ease and started to eat again. Yan Jiekuang looked into the distance. The moonlight was scattered on the lake, rippling it. The moon in the sky was reflected in the lake, and there seemed to be shadows of high mountains in the distance. Yan Jiekuang felt refreshed watching this. It was simply a vivid ink painting.

After dinner, Yan Jiekuang had no plans to drive at night, so he planned to spend the night by the lake. The children knew about it, so they played near the car. Chen Fang was picking flowers, and Chen Liang was listening to the chirping of insects and looking everywhere with a flashlight, but no one knew what he was looking for.

Yan Jiekuang lit a cigarette and drank a little wine. He no longer thought about what happened today. He was now thinking about how to get LS tomorrow. After finishing the last thing, he would hurry back to Sijiu City. He missed his family and children a little.

Nannan yawned on the chair. Yan Jiekuang looked at the time and saw that it was almost nine o'clock, so he told the children to go to bed. The two children went to the river to wash, then returned to the car and climbed onto the small bed in the back.

Yan Jiekuang went outside to clean up the things first, washing and rinsing, then he returned to the car and turned off the lights, leaving only the small ceiling light in the car, and then he fell asleep on the sofa in front. Yan Jiekuang fell asleep soon. The next morning, Yan Jiekuang was awakened by the sound of birds. Yan Jiekuang climbed out of bed and looked through the car window. There were all kinds of birds foraging on the lake outside, and waves were blowing on the lake, which was another scene.

Yan Jiekuang woke up Chen Liang and Chen Fang and pointed outside the window. The brother and sister, who were originally drowsy, instantly became alert when they saw the scenery outside the window. They shouted and shouted about getting dressed and going out to watch the birds. Yan Jiekuang quickly asked them to keep their voices down so as not to wake up the girl. It would be better for her to sleep a little longer.

The two children put on their clothes and ran out, chasing the birds foraging on the shore. Yan Jiekuang smiled and suddenly remembered that he still had a camera with him, so he took out the camera from the cabinet and went out. In addition to taking a lot of photos of the brother and sister, he also took a lot of landscape photos. Later, when he was in the mood, he ran to the car, woke up his daughter, took her out, and asked Chen Liang to take a photo of him as well. When Chen Fang saw this, she also clamored to take a photo with Yan Jiekuang, and they took a lot of group photos.

After playing enough, Yan Jiekuang handed his daughter to Chen Liang and went back to the car to make breakfast. Yan Jiekuang cooked porridge in the car. The eggs were almost gone, so he only cooked two for the two children. Yan Jiekuang looked at the refrigerator and the warehouse and smiled bitterly. All that was left was meat. He didn't even have a chance to eat the pork he brought from the old city.

After the meal was ready, Yan Jiekuang called Chen Liang and Chen Fang back. While eating breakfast, Chen Fang and Chen Liang were chattering about which bird was the prettiest.

After dinner, Yan Jiekuang cleaned up, made milk powder for his daughter, asked Chen Liang to look after his sisters, started the car, and drove towards the road. There was a sign not far away. Yan Jiekuang saw the sign and widened his eyes as he looked at the Chinese characters "Namtso" written on it.

Only then did Yan Jiekuang realize that the lake he had arrived at was actually Namtso. Yan Jiekuang looked at the map and saw that it was very close to LS. He found the direction and drove towards LS.

It was not even noon yet, but Yan Jiekuang had already entered the territory of LS. Yan Jiekuang thought about it and decided to find a hotel to stay in first, and then see how to enter the Potala Palace.

Yan Jiekuang entered LS and registered at a checkpoint before entering the city. After wandering around for a long time, he finally registered at the service desk of a hotel called Balangxue. Then Yan Jiekuang asked for the best suite, as he felt that he had to make the children feel comfortable.

At noon, Yan Jiekuang took the children to a typical Tibetan restaurant nearby, ordered four dishes, and started eating with the children. Of course, he also asked for fresh goat milk for his daughter.

After dinner, Yan Jiekuang originally planned to let the children take a rest and take a nap, but the children felt energetic, so he took them out for a walk to Barkhor Street. Looking at the dazzling array of special Tibetan products on both sides of the road, Yan Jiekuang was also very interested.

Turning into Barkhor Street, Yan Jiekuang felt as if he had returned to ancient times. Both sides were lined with quaint typical Tibetan buildings, simple and beautiful, solemn and full. The street was full of people wearing Tibetan costumes. From time to time, the sounds of chanting and the turning of prayer wheels came to his ears, making him feel as if he was surrounded by the warm atmosphere of the Tibetan people.

In addition to shops on the street, there are also small vendors holding handicrafts and speaking broken Chinese, selling their products everywhere, as well as people setting up stalls. There is a wide variety of goods on both sides, including Tibetan knives, thangkas, cordyceps, ox horn combs, yak meat, dzi beads, turquoise, Tibetan incense, etc.

Chen Liang and Chen Fang each stood on one side of Yan Jiekuang, holding the corner of Yan Jiekuang's clothes tightly with one hand. In the unfamiliar environment, although they were very curious, they were also very scared because they could not understand what the people here said.

Yan Jiekuang touched the two men's heads and comforted them with a smile. The girl in his arms had bright eyes and looked around. Along the way, Yan Jiekuang also bought some things, including two Tibetan knives and four thangkas. He did not buy anything else and took the children directly to a small Tibetan shop in the southeast corner, which was a yellow two-story building.

In this small shop, Yan Jiekuang and his children drank yogurt, ate ginseng fruit and eight-treasure salad. After the waiter introduced it, they learned that this was the place where Cangyang Gyatso and Cangyang Gyatso had a love relationship, which attracted many tourists. The atmosphere inside is very petty bourgeoisie. With melodious music, leaning against the window, reading Cangyang Gyatso's touching love poems, and watching the bustling crowds on the street, you will feel as if time has stopped flowing.

Yan Jiekuang then took them to visit the Jokhang Temple and the former residence of Songtsen Gampo. Yan Jiekuang was very moved. People always say that XZ is very poor and underdeveloped, but the Tibetans have maintained these buildings, including murals and paintings, very well. Although they are clean, tidy and gorgeous, they still have the weight of history.

After strolling around for an afternoon, Yan Jiekuang took the children back home. When they entered the front desk, a few waiters who were originally not very talkative suddenly stood up and looked at Yan Jiekuang and his friends with respectful eyes. Yan Jiekuang was very puzzled, but did not pay much attention to it and took the children back to the room.
