After walking around for a while, I couldn't find the reason why the sheep stopped, so I decided to wait and see.

"Sister, please wait here for a while. It's not dawn yet and the sheep don't want to leave."

"Brother, are you very superstitious? I heard that if an animal or unexpected situation stops you when you go out, you must wait."

In fact, I don’t know if I continue to drive the sheep forward, so I just want to wait. Anyway, today’s sheep herding is just for fun. I will rush back early to eat the winter feed. At this temperature, there is nothing to eat on the hillside.

.

"If you're not allowed to leave, just wait. They'll know when to leave," I said.

"Brother, have you ever heard of a saying, it seems to be called the herd effect. It means that although sheep live in groups, they are very undisciplined. At certain times, if a random sheep moves, other sheep will follow suit. There is no reason."

"You mean they might just be because one sheep stopped walking and the other sheep stopped inexplicably?"

Shang Qingyun said nothing, but in order to avoid the situation where I almost slipped and fell, she never dismounted. When the border shepherd saw that we were not leaving, he went around in circles to maintain the order of the sheep.

"No matter what, if they don't move, I will just wait. I believe that everything happens for a reason. I have awe for this land, so I would rather believe that there is God's blessing here." I said.

"Then you wait for me here while I walk forward alone. I also want to find a good place to take pictures of the plateau under the morning sun."

"No, we can't go alone. It's not bright yet and the snow hasn't disappeared. Let's chat here for a while." I said. I was really worried that something would happen to Shang Qingyun alone. The most important thing was that the road was not easy to walk.

.

"Brother, can I ask you something? What is your hobby? I first thought you liked history and archaeology, but now it seems that is not the case at all."

"The three major hobbies of men have nothing to do with history. I don't have money, power or women, so I don't actually know what I like."

"Haha, brother, I never say such things, but you are an exception. If you say this, it is equivalent to saying that you are not a man."

"I don't like history. I liked geography at first. I can draw a map of China and a map of the world with my bare hands. They are almost the same. I like to see where the mountains are and where the water is. I can imagine how the people there live." I said.

.

"I understand, I liked history at first, but then I stopped liking it because I needed to write a book, so I had to study some. Why don't you like history?" Shang Qingyun asked me.

"Many so-called experts who study history are desktop experts. They study various archaeological and historical books at home and abroad, go to museums to conduct so-called archeology, and then follow others' opinions. For example, after visiting Xinjiang once, they think

I am a pioneer in Silk Road archeology. For example, I think that I am 100% correct when I take what is said in a certain document. I only realized this after living in Kashgar. I have traveled to enough places, and I still feel that I am familiar with this place.

I don’t understand. But it doesn’t matter, I don’t need to understand the past, I want to create the future.” I said boldly.

"Is it that important? It's a drop in the ocean. Most people are ordinary and insignificant. But you are right. There are indeed many people who take the achievements of their predecessors and rub them as their own research. But

Do you mind this very much? You have been to my house, but there are a lot of books about the Silk Road piled up."

"I don't mind. Except for adventure books and geography books, I won't read history or archeology books. Firstly, I'm not interested. Secondly, they are all steamed buns chewed by others. Not to mention disgusting.

Nutrition."

"Then I have to be careful in the future, don't make my brother hate me." Shang Qingyun laughed, and I could see that she didn't object to my statement.

At this time, the sky was already a fish-belly white, and it was basically bright, but the glow before sunrise could not be seen. The sheep were still huddled together without moving, and their bleating sounds kept coming and going.

"The same goes for photography. I rarely watch landscape films. I like natural things very much. However, most landscape films deliberately choose the angle and light, and then make post-production adjustments. Most humanistic films are very staged.

Again. I don’t want to talk about all kinds of people who think they know history very well. It’s enough to understand history. If you have to produce some shocking results just to make money, and research for the purpose of making money is just being a hooligan. I like my sister.

Most of the photos are taken inadvertently. You will spend a lot of time communicating with people, becoming friends, and then complete the shooting inadvertently." I want to direct the topic to Shang Qingyun, not myself.

.

"Let's not talk about it for now. I agree with what you said. History is the same as archeology. If there are new discoveries every day, don't go to the trouble of studying things that others have studied again. Even if it is perfect, some people will argue and waste money.

and resources, although it attracts attention, it does not help the development of Shehuo. I met a well-known brick expert. He openly said that the Flame Mountain is so hot because the underground coal seams spontaneously ignite. Alas, he is known as a brick expert and has a large number of fans.

.Another one is to inspect a spontaneously igniting sulfur ditch in Manas in northern Xinjiang. There are many gaps there where there is hot air, and there is underground water that is now a hot spring. Hundreds of years ago, people knew that this was caused by the spontaneous combustion of underground coal seams.

A well-known bricklayer pretended to measure the temperature, took a look from above with an airplane, measured the composition of the gap gas, and also measured the composition of the groundwater, and then announced that it was caused by the burning of underground coal seams. So from that time on, I

Some people who like to express their own opinions and archaeological conclusions anytime and anywhere stay away from it. There are also people who are very, very sure that all the beacons in Xinjiang were built by the Tang Dynasty. I happened to have studied this and sneered at this view, but because of his influence

It's very big, so a large number of people believe it. They think what he said is right without any reason, regardless of the dynasty differences in historical records and construction forms. It's like some bricklayers insist that there was no writing before Oracle Bone Inscriptions. I think

Writing is a process of gradual development. It must have existed before, but it just didn’t remain." Shang Qingyun said.

"Let's go, stop talking about this. I'm not interested in history, and you're still talking about this. Let's go watch the sunrise. Puli, let's go!" After I said that, I directed Puli, the border shepherd, to drive the sheep. I had to say that while

Mu is a very smart dog. Although he is not familiar with me, he must know that I am a good friend of his owner, so he understands the orders I give him.

Puli is the name Chen Yan gave to the border shepherd. At first I thought it was an English word, but after asking, I realized that Puli means "money" in the national language. It's probably not possible to call your dog Qian directly.

There is no one left.
