Treasure hunt with my sister

The air is a bit cold, such an early morning, such a foreign land, but everyone does not feel deserted.

Chi Heng and Dan Yunbi originally liked to travel around, and now they are very fresh about the morning on the edge of the desert.

They watched the sun gradually rise outside.

"The sun looks good, I don't know if it will be warm later!" Dan Yunbi said.

"It will be very warm. It's better than nothing. If it's just cloudy now, wouldn't it be colder!" Chi Heng said.

"Oh, we often have no sun in winter in Chengdu, Sichuan, it's cold!" Jian Yumei said.

"What, Shu Dog Barking Day is referring to your place!" Mu Xiner said with a smile.

"Yes, yes, I am a Shu dog!" Dan Yunbi finished speaking and made a dog planing in the air.

Everyone laughed.

"There are many stories in the desert. When I came, they told me a lot about the desert, about the ancient road, about the Silk Road, about the Han Dynasty, about the Tang Dynasty, about the Song Dynasty, and now. There are many stories in the desert!" Mu Xiner said.

"Really?" Lin Li said, "Sister Mu, you know a lot!"

"Sister also knows a lot, you are so skilled!" Mu Xiner smiled.

"I might not be able to beat you!" Lin Li chuckled.

They laughed and ate, and quickly finished their breakfast.

In the cool morning, they walked outside.

At this moment, the desert stretches in the distance in front of the eyes, and there are hills behind, and the road on this side of the ancient road leads to the Central Plains.

Dunhuang and Mogao Grottoes are on this side.

"If you walk along this desert, you can go to a distant place?" Lin Li said.

"Yes, at least in the past, now of course there are sea routes and railways. In the past, the roads for our country to communicate with the outside world, except for the Silk Road here, which leads directly to Central Asia and the West, are only from Sichuan to Yunnan to Burma or from Guangzhou to take the sea route! "Jian Yumei said.

"Well, it's a pity that we can't go to the desert to learn scriptures, otherwise we would have fun!" Lin Li laughed.

"Hey, maybe we are more wonderful than learning from the scriptures!" Jian Yumei said.

"Well, it would be wonderful if we went to learn scriptures, but it would be even more exciting if we went to treasure hunt!" Dan Yunbi said.

Everyone laughed.

"Xin'er, let's go together!" Jian Yumei said.

Mu Xiner hesitated for a moment, maybe she hasn't made the final decision yet.

"Let's go to Mogao Grottoes first, since we're here, let's take a good look around!" Mu Xiner said to everyone.

At this time, the brothers brought their horses over, and Mu Xiner's horse also brought over.

"Let's go, let's get on the horse!" Mu Xiner said.

After she finished speaking, she got on the horse, and the morning breeze was blowing. At this moment, Mu Xiner was so heroic.

Jian Yumei nodded and smiled at her, Mu Xiner was actually a little embarrassed.

"Let's go, let's get on the horse too!" Jian Yumei jumped on her horse, and Chi Heng, Dan Yunbi and Lin Li also got on their horses.

"Let's go, let's go to Mogao Grottoes!" Jian Yumei said.

As soon as the words were finished, Mu Xiner rode out, and everyone chased after her.

Unintentionally, this time it turned out to be everyone's horse race.

Because the road is one, it is estimated that it is in one direction.

Everyone is chasing horses on this road at the moment.

The winner was soon decided. After all, Mu Xiner had been riding horses for several years, and Jian Yumei and the others didn't have enough experience. Chi Heng was actually good at riding horses. After all, he was born and raised in Hebei.

However, because of Jian Yumei's excellent martial arts, he is quite good at handling horses.

They chased and played all the way, and when they came to the front of Mogao Grottoes, everyone counted, Mu Xiner was first, Jian Yumei was second, Chi Heng was third, Lin Li was fourth, and Dan Yunbi was fifth.

"Haha, Dan Yunbi, you lost, last place!" Lin Li said.

"Hey, if you lose, you lose. I have nothing to lose to you. I can only buy a candied haws for each of you, but I don't seem to see any one for sale right now!" Dan Yunbi said.

"You're lying!" Lin Li said.

"Then store Dayang with me temporarily, and we'll buy it for you when we get to the city!" Dan Yunbi said.

Lin Li gave him a white look.

At this time, the magnificent appearance of Mogao Grottoes has already attracted Jian Yumei.

"The Buddhist art in Dunhuang is very developed, basically representing the pinnacle of Buddhist mural art!" Mu Xiner said to everyone.

"It was first here in the period of the Sixteen Kingdoms. At that time, a monk from the Western Regions saw a golden light shining here, like ten thousand Buddhas. He began to dig a Buddhist cave here. It has not stopped in the past dynasties. Later, a mage dug a Buddhist cave here. At that time, he named this place Mogao Grottoes, which means the high place in the desert! Later generations changed these three words into Mogao Grottoes.

From the period of the Sixteen Kingdoms to the time when the Silk Road was abandoned in the Yuan Dynasty, people have been digging Buddhist caves here.People say that digging Buddhist caves has immeasurable merits.There are many sayings that there were many business travelers going west to Dunhuang at that time, and they also had funds. When they usually left the customs, they made a wish that if they could come back smoothly, they would build a cave for the Buddha. After they came back, they usually fulfilled their promises. So there are many Buddhist caves here! "Mu Xiner said.

"Look, this is the southern foot of Mingsha Mountain. It is more than 1000 meters long and has five floors of caves. It is divided into north and south. There are more than 700 caves in the north and south. Among them, nearly [-] caves in the north area are all caves. It is a Buddhist art cave, and the southern area is basically a place for monks to live and practice, so there are only a few caves with artwork. Therefore, there are nearly [-] valuable Buddhist caves in the entire Mogao Grottoes!" Mu Xiner said.

Everyone was watching from a distance, "It's spectacular!" Jian Yumei said.

"Yes, there are murals and sculptures inside, all of which are about Buddhism. Many of these murals are very distinctive. I have been copying them all the time. Many of the murals are well painted and have a strong sense of life. Life at that time was basically in the Above!" Mu Xiner said.

"Well, I want to go over and take a closer look!" Jian Yumei said.

"Okay, I'll take you there! You can all look at what you are interested in!" Mu Xiner said.

Jian Yumei and Lin Li followed Mu Xiner up the steps slowly to admire the murals. Dan Yunbi and Chi Heng were actually interested in the monk's residence, so they went there to see it.

Mu Xiner took Jian Yumei and Lin Li along the way, telling them the origins of these murals and sculptures.

Jian Yumei seemed to have entered a magical world.

Because if you look closely, these murals depict the life of many years.

They saw people living, multiplying, and practicing here, and slowly, Jian Yumei was suddenly in a trance.

He looked at Lin Li.

Suddenly he saw that the senior sister didn't seem to be what he was in front of him, but he couldn't see clearly.

Jian Yumei's heart skipped a beat, but he thought it was because this place was too complicated, and too many phantoms would gather at him.

"Could it be that senior sister is someone I know well? In Xixia?" Jian Yumei was amazed, but when he searched those pictures by himself, they were blurred, everything was so magical and trance-like.
