After looking at the flowers, the little princesses followed the crowd to the souvenir shop.
Various panda-related themed products are neatly displayed on the store shelves.
Although there were many tourists coming in to buy, there was no scramble as the sales staff replenished the stock in a timely manner.
Zhou Yu bought panda dolls and backpacks for the little princesses, as well as bamboo-shaped cartoon water bottles, and then walked out contentedly.
The sunlight shining on the green bamboo forest path made the originally excited tourists begin to calm down.
After leaving the panda breeding base, the group drove to the hotel they had booked in advance.
Perhaps because they were tired from playing, the little kid fell asleep on Zhou Yu's shoulder just as the group finished checking in.
It was not until early the next morning that the little girl got out of bed in a daze.
After having breakfast at the hotel restaurant, the group set off on their journey again.
According to the travel guide I found, the Zheduo Mountain Pass is often prone to fog due to its high altitude. For safety reasons, the convoy needs to pass through it before 10 am as much as possible.
Of course, before that, everyone will definitely not miss checking in at the "318 Landmark Wall" in Ya'an Tianquan Service Area.
The road from Chengdu to Kangding is pretty good.
The wheels rolled over the straight road, making a regular sound.
The distant mountain ridges were dyed dark gold by the morning sun, and the mist rolled over the surface of the Zheduo River, like a Hada crumpled by an invisible giant hand.
When turning the seventh hairpin bend, a crack suddenly appeared in the clouds in the sky.
The sunlight shines through the gaps, slicing obliquely across the meadow where yaks have grazed, dividing the crisp carpet-like surface into areas of interwoven light and dark.
Faced with such a unique scenery, not only the little princesses, but even Li Er, the greatest emperor of all time, were surprised and delighted.
As for Li Chengqian and Li Tai, who were brought out by Li Er to see the world, they were like two silly roe deer, with surprise on their faces from beginning to end.
According to the original plan, Crown Prince Li Chengqian was to replace Li Er as regent.
It was just because Li Er wanted to promote the construction of telephone lines in Datang, and when he was not on the road he had to go back to Datang to handle government affairs, so he brought these two brothers with him.
Unlike Li Chengqian's composure, Li Tai, who had seen modern life, was already dazzled by the scenery along the way.
The Tibetans riding motorcycles, the rolling horizon in the distance, and the refreshing feeling of the vast wilderness and the low sky all made the little fat boy excited.
As the convoy moved forward, everyone took photos of the golden sunlight shining on Mount Gongga in Xinduqiao, flew a drone at the Eighteen Bends of the Sky Road, and checked in at the "Must-Drive in This Lifetime" sign at the West Gate of Litang, Ding Zhen's hometown.
The altitude of Litang has reached 4,000 meters. Although the little princesses did not have any abnormal reactions, Zhou Yu still let them breathe oxygen early.
The rest of the journey was filled with both thrills and beautiful scenery.
At the Sister Lakes Observation Deck, everyone saw the twin lakes that looked like gems dropped into the mountains.
At the 72 bends of the Nujiang River, even an experienced driver like Zhou Yu only dares to drive slowly in low gear.
Along the way, everyone saw the 360-degree snow mountain viewing platform in Yuzixi, Xinduqiao, the breathtakingly beautiful Ranwu Lake, the Laigu Glacier known as the Great Wall of Despair, the magnificent Bagila Pass, and the sacred Potala Palace.
Compared to these scenery, Xiaonaituanzi, a foodie, actually prefers the delicacies along the way.
In Kangding, everyone tasted the Matsutake Chicken Soup from Junwangfu.
In Litang, the little girl tasted yak beef at the Legend Litang Cultural Theme Restaurant and Bar.
It was this meal that made the little girl look forward to the yaks that Lu Dongzan was about to send.
Lulang Stone Pot Chicken from Lulang Stone Pot City, and one-yuan sweet tea from Guangming Port Qiongtian Teahouse in Lhasa.
They ate and drank along the way, and were accompanied by various beautiful scenery, which made the little princesses almost reluctant to leave.
Originally, after visiting Lhasa, Zhou Yu was ready to take everyone back, but the little girl said that she had never seen wild Cordyceps.
So Zhou Yu turned the steering wheel and took everyone to Ganzi again.
In order to let the little princesses have a great time, Zhou Yu specially found a local herdsman to serve as a tour guide.
Following the navigation, most of the roads are mountainous.
On the slightly flatter green grassy ground, you can occasionally see unique houses of ethnic minorities.
As vehicles drive on the road, you can occasionally see snow-capped mountains in the distance shining brightly in the sun.
As the capital of Ganzi Prefecture, Kangding has a large area but a population of only over 100,000.
This population size is not even comparable to that of a small fifth-tier city in the Central Plains.
And what’s different from other cities is that most of the Zhuoma and Tashi here wear Tibetan clothes.
Moreover, Zhaxi usually wears a beautiful and exquisite knife on his body.
After the tour guide picked up Zhou Yu and others in Kangding, he changed the group into Tibetan clothes according to the process agreed in advance.
Especially Li Er and his two sons, each of them bought a small knife from a roadside stall.
If you ignore the price of the three knives, it looks pretty good.
But when the tour guide heard their purchase price, he almost got into a fight with the stall owner.
Later, Zhou Yu mediated and the stall owner reluctantly returned 99% of the money.
The nomadic guide's home is on the outskirts of the city, where the population is significantly more sparse.
However, thanks to the policy of connecting every village to every village, there is a two-way two-lane asphalt road in front of the pastoral guide's home.
The convoy drove directly into the herdsman's yard, but only occupied a corner of the yard.
Looking at the courtyard full of ethnic characteristics, not only the little princesses, but even the old man Li Er were all excited.
As soon as everyone got off the car, they saw a brazier lit in the middle of the yard.
Seeing this, Li Er laughed, twirled his beard and walked over first.
Seeing this, the herder tour guide was obviously stunned.
Fortunately, Zhou Yu reacted in time and pulled Old Deng aside.
Otherwise, you would offend people before even entering the house.
Being pulled by Zhou Yu, Li Er raised his eyebrows and said in a dissatisfied tone: "Boy, don't you have to step over the brazier before entering the house? Why are you pulling me?"
"Who told you to step over the brazier before entering the house?"
Faced with Lao Deng's questioning, Zhou Yu was speechless.
He first gave the nomadic guide an apologetic smile, then said seriously, "Fire is a symbol of holiness and auspiciousness to the Tibetans. You'll get a beating if you step over the brazier so brazenly."
"What? There's such a saying?"
When Li Er heard this, his face was full of disbelief.
He first glanced at the embarrassed nomadic guide, then leaned over to Zhou Yu and whispered, "Why is there a fire pot jumping custom in that short video?"
Zhou Yu: ...
