Chapter 163 Looking for Horses
Wang Buping sat in the yurt and watched the performance in the middle. Now he knew that including the performance, accommodation, and meals, the price per person was almost more than 100 yuan. Sometimes, some people would buy some specialties from them.
These people just came here today, mainly to experience the winter in the grassland. I heard from the guy next to me that on the way, there were still a few people who couldn't stand the weather and went back directly.
There are only five of them now, two of them are with him, a man and a woman, and the other two seem to be a couple, because there is no time in summer, and winter is coming.
Looking at the dance, the rhythm is cheerful, the steps are light, and with a wave of the hand, a whip, and a jump, it expresses the simple, enthusiastic, and brave character of the Mongolian people.
They use every part of their body to tell tourists about the Mongolian people's production, life, nomadic scenes on the grasslands, and the Mongolian people's broad-mindedness, simplicity, boldness, enthusiasm, and passionate character traits.
There were also three older people, all holding musical instruments in their hands. Wang Buping recognized two of them from the beginning, and he mistakenly confused the other one.
Wang Buping knows Morin Khuur. Generally speaking, this is what comes to mind when mentioning Mongolian musical instruments. Just look at that Qin. It has a wooden body, about one meter long, two strings, and a trapezoidal resonance box. It looks a bit like an erhu.
In the hands of the old man, he played a beautiful melody, the sound was mellow, low and reverberating, and the volume was relatively weak.
An old man was holding an instrument. Wang Buping thought it was a Han trumpet at first, but later he learned that it was a Mongolian horn, a long wooden horn.
It consists of two sections, the upper and lower sections. The bell mouth is made of copper, and the body of the horn is painted with a dragon. It is divided into "female horn" and "male horn". The inner diameter of the male horn is slightly larger and the sound is loud; the inner diameter of the female horn is slightly smaller and the sound is clear. The male horn is similar to
The length of the female horn is basically the same, with differences in roughness and softness.
There is also a Yatok, which is the Mongolian zither. This thing is often seen on TV with Mongolians. It should be a popular musical instrument in Mongolia, and it mainly plays Mongolian folk songs.
After the performance was over, Wang Buping knew that because there were a few of them today, a bonfire party was going to be held to welcome them. However, Wang Buping looked at these people and had no idea what to do.
You know, as soon as I came out, I found that there were many people outside, "Musang, where did these people come from? Why didn't I see them just now?"
"These are the yurts over there. Look, that location is about a mile away from here."
Wang Buping looked over there, and there were indeed seven or eight yurts on the northwest slope, more than the ones here.
"Musang, why are you living in separate places? Isn't it good to live together?"
"As you can see, there is a slope here to block the wind, but the place is too small, so it is divided into two places. This way, if there is a strong wind, it will not be too cold."
After listening to Mu Sang's words, Wang Buping thought about it. If it rains or snows, it would be better to live in a place like this.
Perhaps because the weather was too cold at night, the welcome party started while it was still bright. Several Mongolian girls pulled Wang Buping and others to dance together. In the middle, a strong Mongolian man was roasting mutton or beef.
...
When he woke up in the morning, Wang Buping knew why those people said that these Mongolians were so hospitable. He still felt a little headache. He drank too much wine last night. With Wang Buping's drinking capacity and his physical condition, he could drink like this.
You can imagine how much wine I drank last night.
As soon as he came out, he saw Mu Sang's wife busy making breakfast. Next to her was Mu Sang's son, who was lighting a fire for his mother. The little boy saw Wang Buping coming out and said to his mother: "Mom, that uncle is up."
."
Seeing Wang Buping getting up, he heard Mu Sang's wife say: "Why is our guest up? Quickly drink some tea to sober up."
"Where's Brother Mu Sang?" Wang Buping asked as he took the tea.
"I'm drunk and haven't gotten up yet."
Hearing this, Wang Buping was a little stunned. He didn't know how many people he drank last night, but they were all drank with him, so he drank them all.
He had nothing to do here. Wang Buping just sat there and looked at the contents of the yurt. He found that it was not as backward as he thought. There were many advanced things in it.
In the morning, after dinner, Wang Buping planned to ask people here this morning where he could find wild horses. Who knew that those Mongolian men had drunk themselves down last night and they still haven't gotten up yet.
I wanted to find someone to ask about the situation, but there was no one. Fortunately, around nine o'clock, Mu Sang finally got up. When he saw Wang Buping, he was a little surprised.
"Brother Buping, you are such a man. You got seven of us drunk last night. What a good man."
"Brother Mu Sang, I can just drink some. By the way, I think you can't hold today's wrestling. They haven't gotten up yet.
I want to ask you something. Brother Musang grazes in this area. Does he know that there are wild horses there? I planned to come and see the wild horses in the winter grassland, but I searched all day yesterday and found nothing."
"A herd of wild horses? Why are you looking for this, Brother Buping? If you want to see horses, I have them in my pasture over there. I can take you to see them."
Wang Buping thought to himself, if he wanted to see horses, he could just go and see them in the city. He was going to find the horse king to raise them. Wang Buping didn't dare to say this. If there were a herd of wild horses, he would secretly get them.
Two pieces go into the space.
"No, I just want to see the wild horse. I haven't seen it yet."
"We don't have wild horses here. This area is all pasture, and there is no living space for those horses. However, I know a place, but I don't know if there is one there now."
"Then, tell me where it is. I'm going to have a look. If you don't have me, you'll just go on a trip. There's nothing to lose."
Wang Buping took out his advanced positioning system, opened the map here, and asked Mu Sang to mark the approximate location. When he saw the direction Mu Sang was pointing, he saw that he was almost to Russia.
"You have also seen the situation here, so there are no people grazing, and it is relatively deserted. Brother Buping, it is better not to go. If you really like horses, you can come next summer. At that time, there will be a horse here.
Festival, you can see all kinds of horses then.”
"Brother Mu Sang is fine. I'm just going to take a look. You see, I have this guy. If it really doesn't work, I will take a detour here. This way, nothing will happen."
...
After knowing the place where the wild horses were, Wang Buping was no longer prepared to stay here, so he said goodbye to Mu Sang and rode a snowmobile towards that place alone. The distance was not short, so Wang Buping calculated his
The situation is that if we get there, it will take two days unless something unexpected happens.
On the morning of the third day, Wang Buping was looking for it in this place. Wang Buping arrived yesterday, but he searched many places but couldn't find it. Now he is a little disappointed.
If he didn't find anything today, he would be ready to leave. It wouldn't work if he spent all his time here. He would have to go to many places in fifteen days. If it snowed, he wouldn't be able to go.
If there was snow here, it would be easier for Wang Buping to find it. That way, as long as he finds horse hoof prints, he can trace them. However, there is no snow here, the ground is bare, there are some weeds, and there is no shadow of the horse.
arrive.
Walking south, if you can't see it again, then you have to give up. According to what Mu Sang told Wang Buping before he left, if you don't find it here, just walk south. Those wild horses will usually go towards this place this season.
Go in that direction.
At noon, Wang Buping was ready to give up. After walking for more than ten miles, he still found nothing. However, on the way, he saw some weeds being eaten by something, and he thought there would be something.
clue.
However, because of the rain in that place, it seemed that all the marks had been erased and nothing was left at all. This made Wang Buping very disappointed. If it hadn't rained, he would have discovered something.
After walking for more than an hour in the afternoon, Wang Buping finally discovered that the horse manure had not been dried for several days, and there were messy horse hoof prints on the ground. It seemed that there were really wild horses here. Judging from the hoof prints,
This should be a herd of wild horses with dozens of horses.
Now, Wang Buping regained his energy and rushed forward. He knew that usually the horses would not move too far because there was a small river here and the horses would walk by the water in order to have water to drink.
.
Wang Buping walked for about several miles, and finally made a discovery. By a river, he found hoof prints left by a horse drinking water. This time he found it, and Wang Buping walked toward the grassland.
Seeing a mound, Wang Buping climbed up. When he stood on it and looked into the distance, Wang Buping was shocked. On a slope not far away, horses were lying there.
Basking in the sun.
However, a few horses seemed to be there for reconnaissance, standing there looking into the distance. This was really difficult to handle. If you want to get close to the horses, you must avoid these horses. Otherwise, if they are discovered, Wang Buping will know
, no matter how fast you are, you can't outrun the horse.
Wang Buping began to observe. The most conspicuous ones here were the white horses. However, it seemed that the king horse was black. It could be seen from the distribution of the horses. Moreover, the king horse was smaller than the average horse.
Be bigger.
If he goes around the slope over there and approaches slowly from there, he doesn't know if he can avoid being discovered. Wang Buping plans to try. If he is discovered, he plans to try to see if he can do it before the horse starts running.
catch up.
When he went there, Wang Buping released the two big bears and even the strange beasts. This was just in case. If he failed, he would have to rely on these three guys to take care of him.
