A study tour on foot in Dunhuang

Dunhuang

is my haunting place

It's not the ancient Loulan country under your sand

It's not your exquisite Buddha statues and murals in the Mogao Grottoes

It's not your magnificent and sad See Dunhuang again

but,

the vastness of your desert

the stones of all colors at the foot of your Gobi

the layers of your Yadan rock

the gecko or lizard crossing your feet

But, I still don't have the courage to go alone!

it seems that the 7 activity I've been waiting for is just for me. Simple and direct, I just want to see the desert in Dunhuang-this is the original idea.

the beauty of people is that they are creatures, but they have chemical reactions. Before you sort it out, consider it carefully, and filter it with the routines in the city, you will be deeply involved.

For me, who is usually quiet, these "comrades-in-arms" rarely link. They are all strangers, let alone have never seen them, and even some people have never touched them online. They are brand new. In this way, I gave my four days and three nights to this group of people-there is a nickname "7ER".

A group of people who have the feelings of "writing an article in seven days, insisting on writing for seven years, and going to the South Pole after seven years", and a group of lovely and outstanding people who are striving for "having fun and learning, and growing up after coming back".

nothing else, only quality, love without words, only practice.

There is an ancient poem that says, "People go out of Yangguan in the west for no reason"

From the hotel to Yangguan, it takes about an hour by bus. Saw the starting point of our departure.

for me, it was really difficult at first. I don't talk much, and I don't like to get ahead of others, but our captain gave it to us in groups in order to keep up with everyone.

My sister Yu Yanwen (security inspector at Xining Airport), who lives with me, is divided into three groups: Song Linqiang (super aspiring post-9s).

Actually, I rely on Sister Yan Wen, who is the most familiar person here. My warm-hearted sister will always take me with her to help me get a water bag, ask me to have breakfast, give me encouragement, and help other comrades pack their mobile phones. She is very popular. I'm always staring at where people have gone, for fear that nobody will take care of me, haha.

on the first day, it was 23 kilometers. I really didn't walk this long, and it was a desert. In fact, I have no bottom in my heart. I went to the sand mountain climbed by Crescent Spring the day before, and my physical strength was a little overdrawn. The key point is that the shoes are new and wear my feet. The prominent bone spur at the ankle (Hu Yifan, 7, helped me find the reason, so I wrote about him alone when I came back), and walking was an obstacle. All these are depressing ...

Fortunately, I came from "abuse", so it's all right not to consciously perceive these things. The most tender thing is that there is a link, which is to extract the guardian angel. And my guardian is just Liu Min of our team-he is an out-and-out Henan man, a master lawyer in the blockchain, and his name is used to break our inherent thinking, haha.

helping me all the way has taken good care of me. At the beginning, I was a little exclusive, and I was not willing to link and communicate with people deeply. This stems from my deep self-confidence and my shrinking avoidance of myself.

Although I love to ignore answers, I can always see Liu Min not far from me, chat with me, help me take photos with others, follow the "wild road", get supplies, and try my best to talk if there is nothing to talk about.

He is also a very unsociable person. It is also the need of the task to be able to do this at first! Behind, I believe, not reluctantly! When I finally learned that it was my "guardian angel", I was moved and tied the last ribbon on his wrist.

Sister Yan Wen taught me "altruism"! Active altruism, linking is a natural thing!

Liu Min taught me to be brave! Bravely face the area where you feel uncomfortable, break through and enjoy it is a natural thing!

although the road is not easy, my heart is always on the road!

I'm 7er, Yan Xiaozhu with a small waist circumference, and I'll talk about Dunhuang next time!
