light-hidden space

54.

We are often asked the question, "What is your dream in life?" The answer for many, many people is the same: "Travel the world."

Travel seems to be our purpose in life, it seems to be our source of pleasure, it is our high (chao) moment in daily life.We relish in describing those beautiful landscapes and wonderful experiences to others. Even the unlucky things that were frustrating at the time will often turn into super humorous materials in the conversation in the future.

Listen carefully, and we will find that the wonderful experience of all people can only be modified by the word "bits" to modify its quantity.After a long trip, if there are "bits" worthy of our description, it can be regarded as a successful trip.In addition to being remembered and described in travel, there are still many links that are ignored, or even "erased" intentionally or unintentionally.

In fact, travel is a part of life that we place too much hope on.This thing is a bit like our pursuit of happiness, full of passion, but also full of contradictions.

We pursue a happy life as our goal in life.However, no matter how happy, the happiness that is worth remembering and can be described can only be bits and pieces.Most of the time, our lives are long and boring.

This phenomenon is particularly prominent in Xin Yue.

When locked at home and "watching the time go by", Xin Yue swore to Jiang Yinqi: "If you let me go out to travel, I will never dare to feel tired again! I will cherish every minute."

Xin Yue doesn't really like traveling, but she firmly believes that after going through this several months of retreat, everyone will change and fall in love with the sea and the sky.fatigue?Does not exist anymore!

"We will cross the vast prairie." Jiang Yinqi reminded him friendly.

"I love cattle and sheep when the wind blows the grass!" Xin Yue came casually.

Jiang Yin smiled strangely.The ancient poems of Tang and Song Dynasties not only shaped our aesthetic taste, but also imprisoned our imagination.When it comes to the prairie, Xin Yue will think of the ancient poems he memorized when he was 8 years old, and then the scene will be frozen in his mind.It is possible that this impression will last a lifetime.

From this point of view, we must travel, forget those ancient poems, and experience the world with our own senses.Of course, the premise is that we must have an open heart.Don't think that it must be "the wind blows the grass and sees the cattle and sheep" before entering the prairie, at least this picture cannot be the only one in your mind.This picture is implanted in your brain by ancient poems, not what you see with your own eyes.

After 4 days of traveling in the Great Lakes region, they entered the legendary prairie.

At first, Xin Yue was very excited. The blue sky, the vast green grassland, the haystacks scattered on the grassland, and the straight road ahead... Xin Yue felt relaxed and open-minded.

Xin Yue admitted that cattle and sheep stand on the grass well, and they don't need the wind to blow the grass low to show it.They stand under the blue sky, eat grass, sleep, meditate, and daze.

There is no dynamism and romance here, and the scenery in front of you has a static beauty.

With the passage of time, Xin Yue realized that most animals on the grassland would probably fall into the old cow's survival mode, eating grass, sleeping, meditating, and dazed.Xin Yue drew this conclusion from himself.

Meadows, endless meadows; cattle and sheep, more cattle and sheep; haystacks, more haystacks.The scenery is like a still picture, without change.Xin Yue's vision became narrower and narrower.Sitting behind the windshield, her eyelids are heavy, she is struggling and still inevitably falling into aesthetic fatigue.

Jiang Yinqi felt that this was not possible. Xin Yue is not a person who knows how to travel. How can he become a good travel companion in the long run?Zhou Feng would be a good traveling companion, but he refused to be her companion.Xin Yue would be a very good partner, but he really doesn't know how to play.

Now whenever he thinks of Zhou Feng, Jiang Yinqi still feels heartache, and still forces himself to suppress his thoughts.She tried her best to suppress her yearning for Zhou Feng by being nice to Xin Yue.However, what made Jiang Yinqi flustered was that as the relationship with Xin Yue deepened and the communication increased, Zhou Feng's image became more and more blurred in reverse.

For example, Jiang Yinqi couldn't imagine the dispute about the salad that day. What would happen to Zhou Feng?Will she dare not eat salad like Xin Yue?She will still give it a go with the same anxiety as herself, competing with a plate of salad, and eating that salad means that she still sticks to her abstract meaning of life.She didn't know what would happen to Zhou Feng.But what is certain is that Zhou Feng is definitely different from Xin Yue.Even if she didn't dare to eat salad, Zhou Feng would not use simple words like "keep the green hills alive without fear of no firewood" to persuade her. She might give extremely complicated reasons, or she might not say a word.

Which one does Jiang Yinqi prefer?I don't know, she no longer knows what she should like now.

Jiang Yinqi parked the car on the side of the road, "We'll eat here." She opened the trunk door of the car, which is where they eat at noon every day.

After Xin Yue was busy, the two of them sat on the trunk of the car, facing the prairie, holding hot instant noodles and canned luncheon meat, dangling their legs.It is very pleasant to bow your head to eat a mouthful of noodles and look up at the scenery for a while.

"We will have this kind of scenery for the next few days, Xin Yue, how dare you say that you won't be aesthetically fatigued?" Jiang Yinqi squinted his eyes, trying his best to look at the distant horizon.

Xin Yue laughed awkwardly. "Tell me, how do you not get tired? I really don't understand. How can I still be aesthetically fatigued after holding it in for so long?"

Jiang Yinqi answered very seriously this time, and used her favorite language style, "The vast grassland, the sky and the earth almost occupy the whole world. There is no bustling and noisy here, and there is only "emptiness". It is this kind of emptiness. , can let us get spiritual healing, contemplation, meditation, solitude, quietness, and peace of mind and body. Therefore, this place is not empty. People can become richer here, the premise is that you have a heart of awe."
