Tea-horse ancient road prose

Lijiang Lashihai is a famous international wetland park, and it is also the place where the Yunnan-Tibet tea-horse ancient road passes. Now, along this ancient tea-horse road, I began to take the caravan route again.

Riding on a horse, the historical memory of the ancient tea-horse road haunts my mind. This is a non-governmental international trade channel with caravan as the main means of transportation, and a corridor for economic and cultural exchanges among ethnic groups in southwest China. The ancient tea-horse road is a very special geographical name, and it is the most magnificent natural scenery and mysterious cultural tourist route in the world.

Walking on the ancient tea-horse road, I seem to see it in the mountains; On the bank of running water; In the virgin forest with dense vegetation; In the small villages of ethnic minorities, rows of caravans came. They trade local tea resources to other places, even abroad.

The caravan has experienced winter and summer, wind and rain, difficulties and obstacles, overcome unimaginable difficulties and successfully completed the important task of traveling again and again. On the narrow path, there are still uneven hoof prints. The footprints of horses also record the vicissitudes of time. In summer, the sun is like fire, and there is no cover and no stop. The caravan walks on the mountain road, and each horse carries heavy tea. If it rains and the Tianshan road is slippery, it will roll down the valley if you are not careful.

In winter, horses walk in the snowy mountains. The snow nest is deep and shallow, and the road ahead is unpredictable, which really makes people shudder.

Riding on horseback, I slowly thought, are you taking the caravan route again today, looking for the footprints of the past history? Or follow the rapid development in the future?

The docile Tatar horse wagged his mane as he walked. It gives people a feeling that the wind is rustling and the water is cool, and the strong men are gone forever.

With the sound of hooves, we will pass the beautiful Naxi village. Now Naxi people not only live in spacious houses with national characteristics. Moreover, the white walls, black tiles and the unique hieroglyphics written on the walls are particularly dazzling in the sun. Especially the antique carved beams and painted buildings show the intelligence and wisdom of Naxi people.

"The west wind road is fine and fine, and the bridge is flowing."

There are dirt roads and cement roads that the caravan has passed now. Although the traffic is developed, convenient and fast, it is still necessary to re-take the ancient tea-horse road so that people will not forget the history of the caravan and the hardships of its life.

I rode forward, and in front of me was the virgin forest that blocked the sun. During the journey, I was filled with emotion.

At this time, it began to rain. Although his clothes were wet by the rain, the horse walked slowly with great composure. On the dirt road, a little slip makes us riders tremble.

I am thinking that people live to find their own position and find their own meaning in this position; The meaning of life seems to have little to do with occupation and years, but it is related to one's own life; A person's rough experience can make our life more mature and our hearts never grow old; As long as we always keep ourselves impulsive and passionate about life, we can transcend all the hardships and tiredness in life and keep ourselves on the road forever!

After following the caravan for more than ten miles, we returned to the starting point.

Back in Lijiang at night, the twilight is intoxicating. I was drunk in the bar street, thinking about the long road of the ancient tea-horse road, thinking about the history and present of the ancient city. This trip to the ancient tea-horse road is not only an encounter in life, but also a fate in life. It brings people not only the aftertaste of history, but also the treasure and awe of life.
