Chapter 648: Namtso
It was already evening when they returned to the hotel. After leaving Bakhun Street in the afternoon, they went to Sela Temple again. There were fewer tourists in Sela Temple and could clearly experience the loneliness advocated by Buddhism. It was still early to leave Sela Temple, so they ran to the Lhasa River again. The river water was not too clear, and the clouds were pressed very low, revealing the bright blue sky and the gray-green mountains in the distance.
The meal I ate in the hotel in the evening was of course a buffet in the hotel buffet restaurant. After eating this meal, I immediately felt like I was returning from a wilderness to a civilized society. From the window of the restaurant, you can still see the lights in the city of Lhasa. It seems that the scenery has become a background, giving people a illusion of time and space intertwined.
The Western buffet in the hotel does not include much content, at least not as many buffets as the same price in big cities in the inland plains, but for this location, it is quite good. Liu Jinpeng ate two types of crabs, including tiger crabs. This crab looks big but has no head to eat. The ice cream is from Haagen-Dazs, and the taste can only be said to be OK.
Zhang Yu ate some scallops and salmon. She said the taste was good, but she complained that the crayfish was too small. In addition, she thought that mango passion fruit mousse and caramel pudding tasted very good. She only praised the soft, tender and juicy lamb chops for other dishes. Liu Jinpeng took a little grilled oysters on a whim, and then found that the roast was baked, and it was a bit small, but the taste was OK. The number of drinks was relatively small, with only four types. Liu Jinpeng chose pineapple juice and Zhang Yu chose Sprite.
Finally, the waiter gave them a plate of roast duck, which was the kind of sliced, not the whole one. The roast duck looked beautiful and tasted very good, but the quantity was a little smaller. It was probably only half a duck on the plate. After the meal, Zhang Yu decided to drink some soup and then shook the crowd. Liu Jinpeng chose her Matsutake soup, and he drank some sweet tea by himself. This was probably the only drink that could be linked to local delicacies.
After dinner, the two returned to the guest room. Liu Jinpeng asked Zhang Yu to wash first as usual. He called the girls at home to report safety. After Zhang Yu finished washing, Liu Jinpeng found that she had changed into the black underwear again, and the opening of the white bathrobe was also very low.
He whistled, quickly finished the work on his hand, then took out a pair of underwear from the suitcase and rushed to the bathroom. When he passed by Zhang Yu, he didn't forget to hug him and kiss him, and then he got into the bathroom with her loud and coquettish anger.
Although Zhang Yu already considered himself a woman, what happened in the same place that night was really impressive. She was in a very conflicted mood now. She was worried about another accident - even if there was no problem after checking it, she was still worried - and she was vaguely looking forward to it. Especially the words Liu Mei said to her privately, which put a lot of pressure on her.
Liu Mei's little thoughts can't be hidden from Zhang Yu's eyes. She hopes to reach an alliance with Zhang Yu in certain matters and then gain an advantage in certain things that are ashamed to say. In Liu Mei's opinion, Ye Ling is not a threat at all, Li Xiwen is very dangerous, but His Royal Highness the Princess has a good education. If she talks about letting go of her figure, she will definitely not have an advantage as well as some people.
Liu Mei's other thoughts were not hidden from Zhang Yu, although she did not say it, and she hid it very well. Zhang Yu guessed that Liu Mei's thoughts were nothing more than thinking that Zhang Yu was the one who was the most willing to give in this group, so it was very likely that something that Liu Mei didn't want to see happened. Because of this, Liu Mei took the initiative to exchange experience with Zhang Yu and won her into a private alliance.
Zhang Yu didn't want to engage in any alliance with her privately. It would be better for several girls to pursue a policy of non-alignment. This is what Liu Jinpeng hoped. Although Liu Mei always claimed that she was engaged in a benign limited competition, her intentions were almost on her face, so Zhang Yu had not agreed to her. Moreover, with her poor physiological knowledge, one thing that can be confirmed is that men are almost at an absolute disadvantage in the matter between the two genders. So she felt that Liu Mei was a little alarmist.
The facts will be revealed soon. Zhang Yu is full of confidence. Although she has no experience... No, it should be said that she has no experience except the last embarrassing incident, but she does not think she will lose this "war". Because since ancient times, except for a few extremely perverted men, the winners are all women, which is determined by physiological structure.
She was sure of this.
(The limelight is too tight recently... Tens of thousands of words are omitted here.)
The next morning, according to the plan, Liu Jinpeng and Zhang Yu should embark on a journey to Namcuo. When they woke up in the morning, Zhang Yu nodded heavily. Yesterday, she was very unwilling to defeat her opponent, but unexpectedly lost. Fortunately, her opponent only defeated her twice with "kindness", and then announced that she had to go on the road tomorrow and could not sleep too late, so she got the opportunity to rest.
She is now enjoying the consequences of failure, and she is performing vigorous exercise in the plateau area, and twice, it is a miracle that she does not have difficulty breathing. Even after resting for a night, she still feels a little dizzy, but Liu Jinpeng is still energetic and is preparing his luggage. He also takes it to the plateau for her to eat. It's really a naked contempt.
After eating Gaoyuan An and sucking oxygen for a while, Zhang Yu felt completely healed, at least he was energetic, and he didn't feel dizzy anymore. Liu Jinpeng ordered breakfast service. Today he ate local food, tsampa, sweet tea and butter cakes. These foods are more suitable for plateau climate and can reduce the degree of altitude sickness.
After dinner, they checked in and took the Wrangler to the driver's doorman and tipped the car a few dollars. The two drove to the gas station and filled the car with gas. By the way, they had to buy some food. The development level of Namcho was very low. In addition to bringing the food, they had to buy it with locals. The few restaurants must be crowded.
From Lhasa to Namcuo, the straight line distance is more than 200 kilometers. Generally, individual passengers take chartered cars or carpooling. There are travel agencies like this to attract customers in major hotels. From Lhasa, there are newly built asphalt roads. The road conditions are very good and the scenery on both sides is also very clear. There are beautiful scenery worth taking everywhere.
The road is yellow on both sides, the road is gray-black, the sky is royal blue, and the clouds and mountains are white. The Nianqing Tanggula Mountain is snow-covered in front of the car window. You can see Namjou by crossing this mountain with an altitude of thousands of meters. Three hours after leaving Lhasa, the Wrangler arrived at the Nianqing Tanggula Pass. There is a small village nearby, and there are also many locals who do tourist business.
From here, the altitude gradually increased. The altitude of Lhasa City is 3,650 meters, while the Naganla Pass in front reaches an altitude of 5,200 meters, which is a great test for anyone. People who used to hide in Lhasa felt normal. When they arrived at Naganla Pass, they almost had severe altitude sickness.
The temperature gradually dropped from the entrance of Nianqing Tanggula Mountain. Zhang Yu was afraid of the cold, so he quickly put on the down jacket. Liu Jinpeng didn't feel cold yet, but at the strong request of his wife, he had to wear the old sheepskin coat he bought. Zhang Yu even laughed at him a few words.
As she got closer and closer to the Lashan Pass, Zhang Yu gradually felt irregular heart rhythm and difficulty breathing. She had to start inhaling oxygen again. Liu Jinpeng finally felt a little uncomfortable now. He had already eaten Rhodiola and now under Zhang Yu's supervision, he ate Gaoyuan, so he quickly returned to normal.
Four and a half hours after leaving Lhasa. At 12 o'clock in the afternoon, the two finally arrived at Naganla Pass. Looking down from here, the beautiful Nammazi was at a glance. Standing here and looking ahead, you felt like you were in a blue world. Light blue, light blue, gray blue, royal blue, dark blue and deep blue black as deep as ink. This blue from light to dark blue is clear. Blue is plump and charming, and seems to accommodate all the blue in the world.
The weather was beautiful, the sun was shining brightly, and the white and even a little transparent cloud could not cover the beautiful scenery, while the sky was unprecedentedly low, as if you could pull off a few clouds with just reaching out. The two of them rested at the mountain pass for a few minutes and took a high view. Zhang Yu found that as long as she did not exercise vigorously, she gradually got used to the environment here. The altitude sickness was not that great.
After a simple meal, the Wrangler continued to move forward. After another hour, they finally arrived at their destination today, the Tashi Peninsula. The Tashi Peninsula is a low hill with gravel, soil and lichens on the ground. The island is full of strange rocks, with forests of peaks and colorful landforms, and ingenious. There are countless stone pillars and strange stone peaks, some like pine and cypress, some like elephant trunks, and some like human figures, with various shapes and lifelike life. There are also many quiet caves on the island. It not only has a strange landscape, but also a must-see place to turn around the lake.
There are some simple inns on the Thaxi Peninsula. In fact, they are sheds like color steel rooms. There are no bathrooms and bathrooms, and only single beds with iron racks. Each bed costs between 20 and 30. Some of these simple inns do not provide food, while others do not even have toilets. There is only a semi-open shed as toilets. What’s even more terrible is that there is no running water here. If you need to wash your face and drink water, you can only scoop water in the sink or gasoline barrel outside the inn.
The altitude of Namtuo is lower than that of Nagenla Pass, only 4,718 meters, but it is still much higher than that of the city of Lhasa. Liu Jinpeng did not plan to stay in an inn, and even if he wanted to live in a shed, he would not live in a shed. There are better hotels in Namtuo Lake District, at least there are still wooden houses. The most expensive hotel in the local area costs about 300 yuan per night. Of course, the conditions cannot be compared with the city of Lhasa, but it is considered a top enjoyment in the local area.
The Wrangler drove to the edge of the Shed Inn. After Liu Jinpeng got off the bus, he was regarded as a stay by the locals. However, he just wanted to buy some water from the boss. He used a plastic kettle to fill two pots of water, which cost twenty yuan. In fact, it is okay to use lake water directly, but be careful not to let the locals see it. Liu Jinpeng would just buy water for fear of trouble.
Liu Jinpeng drove to find a shelter place. The Wrangler parked under a slope. There were two strange-looking boulders here, and there were also some low ferns nearby. After getting off the car, they started together and took out a thickened tent from the trunk of the car and opened it to install it. This thing cost Liu Jinpeng several thousand yuan, hoping to withstand the cold wind at night in Namcho. The boss claimed that this tent was the same type of number used by the Antarctic scientific expedition team. The implication was that there was no fear in Antarctica, and Tibet was nothing.
After setting up the tent, Liu Jinpeng asked Zhang Yu to clean his sleeping bag. He had to drive to the inn to buy something. It was nothing else, but cow dung for making fires to keep warm. The local area used cow dung to keep warm because there was not enough firewood nearby. Fortunately, the price was not expensive, and the wholesale price was ten yuan per large bag, which was enough for two people to spend several hours.
