2. The Loess Plateau used to be a primeval forest. The Loess Plateau is now a thousand valleys. On the Loess Plateau, yellow dust flies all over the sky. His heavy body is full of lifeless life. Once the virgin forest, now the coal and oil. (Dunzhe Ling, nonlinear wave)
A lifeless land will give you a dull trigger. You can't imagine what will grow in this lonely old land. Will it grow golden crops, sweet apples and towering trees? You don't need to throw gold all over the floor, you don't need to worship it desperately, as long as you give it water to drink and let it wake up after drinking enough, the seeds you sow will grow into what you want. (Ningxin Road "Old Earth")
4. Loess is scattered here. At present, the main agricultural areas are along the Yellow River from east to west, and there are valley basins such as Xunhua, Jianzha and Guide. These are valley alluvial plains and loess hilly basins. It is believed that the valley between Guide and Jianzha is the main valley for Qiang people in Han Dynasty-Big and Small Elm Valley.

The Loess Plateau is one of the birthplaces of the Chinese nation. Neolithic cultural sites are widely distributed in the southern part of the Loess Plateau, especially in Wei Fen Valley and western Henan. At that time, people made a living by fishing, hunting and gathering, indicating that the southern part of the Loess Plateau maintained a good natural ecosystem at that time.
On the loess plateau, there is a unique culture of yellow land between vertical and horizontal gullies, and caves all over the gullies and gullies of the loess plateau are the direct embodiment of this culture. Cave dwelling is a unique living form on the Loess Plateau in northern China, which has a very strong Han folk custom and local flavor.
The vegetation on the Loess Plateau is horizontally distributed in the northeast-southwest direction, and the differentiation of warm temperate summer green broad-leaved forest, forest grassland, arid grassland and middle temperate desert grassland appears in turn from southeast to northwest. Due to the changes of temperature and precipitation with altitude, the mountain vegetation in the eastern and southern parts of the plateau shows obvious vertical distribution differences. According to the combination of temperature and moisture conditions and referring to the characteristics of vegetation, soil and agriculture.
