Black land
The grassland is green in summer. A new rain, followed by a breeze, makes the grass dance, sway, lean, sing softly and dance beautifully, and the blue waves roll to the horizon, making the whole world fragrant. Clouds of white clouds are like clusters of Yu Lian, frozen in mid-air. As soon as the sun blows, the green fields will be poked in different shades, no matter how deep they are, they will always be true colors. Groups of brown horses, black cows and white sheep, like piles of black and white pearls scattered on a huge green carpet, make people reluctant to pick them up, but walk over and get as close as possible to listen to the most primitive and simple language. There is a lot of water here. In addition to pastures, there are vast marshes and bushes everywhere, and full of green stretches all the way to the distant mountains. Why do Mongols love wrestling? Being in the poetic grass, I also want to accidentally fall a few times, roll forward a few meters, and clean the dew on my body.
Grassland forest is especially precious. Grassland in the world is divided into four grades: forest, meadow, typical and desert, among which forest grassland is the highest. Grassland people told me that there are forests in the grassland, just like there is water in the desert. In their hearts, it is a kind of dependence and a kind of strength. Whenever the pressure rises sharply, they will think of the forest behind them. The largest Hulunbeier Moldaoga forest area in China covers an area of10.6 million square kilometers, where larch and Pinus sylvestris var. mongolica are mainly planted. But the most shocking thing is the birch forest in the mountains and plains. Hundreds of millions of birch trees with uniform thickness poured down from Daxinganling in droves, and found their own positions on slopes, grasslands, watersides and roadsides, graceful as a beautifully carved daughter country. The vast white forest, with a tidal wave of resin fragrance, is like a dream country. You will hum Russian folk songs, you will unconsciously think of the quiet dawn, and you will wait for the warm sunset in the delicate green forest. This is the grassland forest.
The songs on the grassland are particularly long. The reason why Shaanxi Opera is so frustrated and high-profile is forced out by the loess slope that goes straight up and down. The reason why Yuequ is exquisite is that it is brushed by Qinhuai willow like flowers and water. Song of the Prairie is a shepherd riding a horse, standing on a grassy hill, looking up. It is vast and empty, and Xia Hong is like practice. The endless green sea pulls your thoughts to the place where you meet the blue sky. Ma Touqin's sorrows and sorrows are melodious, yurts are dotted, horses scream, the water is peaceful, and shepherds begin to sing. Song, come out slowly, every tune, every lyric, is long and distant. I want the whole grassland to hear it, the birds in the sky to hear it, and the people in my heart to hear it, so I slowly exhale, enrich the timbre, and try my best to make the song last longer and longer. Cross the rolling grass mountain and catch the floating clouds. No matter how far it is, it is still your hometown, your pasture, and the place where you will always be attached. This is the song of the grassland.
The wine on the grassland is particularly strong. The grassland is terrible. When men ride too far, they feel lonely, so they want to talk to someone. When they finally get together, the first thing to do is to drink. In the grassland, no one can drink or not, only who dares to drink. Tear mutton, wave lofty sentiments, drink one mouthful, and see the bottom of the bowl. Daughter Red in Jiangnan Water Town is slowly drunk with exquisite side dishes on the boat, which is the taste of Shuzi; The highland barley wine in the snow-capped mountains of Tibet is the energy of blood when drunk on the plateau with precious saffron. On the grassland, man is the largest, seven feet tall and connected with the sky. Shorten the distance through people, heaven and earth; Through wine, man and God live in harmony. They drank heavily because they were not afraid of getting drunk and fell on the soft grass and the blue sky with their heads up. As a grassland man, the most important thing to understand before getting drunk is whether he is really worthy of heaven and earth, friends and this pure and magnificent wine. This is the wine of the prairie.
The flowers on the grassland are particularly dazzling. In Beijing, colorful billboards make people visually numb, and colorful greenhouse flowers make people confused. Top fashion designers in Paris always give black and white the most popular and timeless colors. This is because, in a dense and complicated atmosphere, the simplest lines and the most primitive colors can make people remember deeply. The magnificent grassland, from light green in early spring to yellow-green in late autumn, is always a single color. If you come across an unknown bunch of wild flowers while walking, you will run over very carefully, observe her, judge her and appreciate her, because she is the only one in the empty green sea, which is the most dazzling. In Hulunbeier, your heart will be gripped by Bai Mudan, Red Lily, Ziyan and Huang Ju, who are often overlooked on weekdays, and you will never leave, and it will be fun. Pick a few branches and smell them a few times. They are fragrant and aura. The whole world was drunk, I woke up alone, all the trees were green, and I was alone. This is the highest state of flowers. No matter the variety, as long as she knows where to bloom and why, it is the smartest flower in the world. This is the flower of the grassland.
Such a grassland will make people realize the pallor of life and seize the beautiful moment; This grassland is unobstructed, surrounded by enemies, and there is no danger to defend. It is life to rush forward; This kind of grassland makes people want to stop, and stopping means death, so they need to keep running to stay away from loneliness and terror; Such grasslands will only produce the standing strong and the fallen dead, but not the mediocre; This grassland, most like the ocean, has the most tension and domineering, and once it advances, it is unstoppable; Such a grassland will always belong to the rider, and the spirit of the horse is the soul of the grassland people.
In order to hunt down the heroic and unyielding Prince Zalandin of Hualamozi, Genghis Khan summoned his beloved general Butai and Zhe Bie to pursue westward. How far do we have to chase? Genghis Khan looked at the strange wilderness in the west and waved gently: "until you see the sea." Thousands of knights galloped in the direction of sweaty fingers. For two years, he had been killed in the Mediterranean, but Zalandin didn't catch up with him. Behind him is a large area of conquered European land, smoking black smoke.
People riding horses are collectively called nomadic tribes, which originated in the most prosperous places of vegetation and water plants. When their own grass and water are exhausted, the whole family will migrate to grab others' grass and water. With the continuous migration and mixing, a powerful tribal culture on the grassland has been formed, full of wildness and strength. The reason why the Central Plains entered the farming civilization early is because Dayu harnessed water to control the Yellow River and the Yangtze River. The endless water will never be exhausted, people will no longer migrate, live and work in peace and contentment, change pasture into food, change herders into farmers, gradually develop into cities and countries, and brew the civilization of the Central Plains. The symbol of the difference between grassland culture and Central Plains civilization is the world-famous Great Wall of Wan Li. This thick wall, built by more than a dozen dynasties in the Central Plains, blocked the sound of hooves from the grassland, where two civilizations collided with blood and fire. For thousands of years, the soldiers of Xiong Jun grassland have repeatedly broken through the weak arms of Chang 'an poets, crossed the Great Wall, crossed the Yellow River and even crossed the Yangtze River, calling themselves kings and enemies. Among the grassland tribes that broke through the Great Wall and entered China, Hulunbeier grassland especially went out. Because of this, the total length of the Great Wall in China is 65,438 Vandory, while that in Inner Mongolia is only 30,000 Li. Going south and continuing south is the dream of many generations of prairie people, and the temptation inside the Great Wall is too great.
When these wild and heroic prairie people established a dynasty in the Central Plains, out of some self-esteem or inferiority, they deliberately used foreign civilization to resist the Central Plains civilization, but they all failed in a short time. They finally admitted that the food carefully prepared by Seiko was indeed much more delicious than the blood sausage of horses. They gradually got used to luxury cars and complicated bedding. They threw away the big bowl of koumiss, put on the jade cup and began to recite poems on the moonlit night in Chunjiang. For two thousand years, all the ethnic minorities who defeated China militarily finally became China people in culture.
Greater China civilization is not only the civilization of Han people, but also the essence of many grassland cultures. At the end of the Western Jin Dynasty, five things happened. More than 100 years later, Xianbei people conquered Hu Han country north of the Yangtze River and established a powerful Northern Wei Dynasty. In the middle of the dynasty, Emperor Xiaowen of Wei loved Chinese civilization. In order to make Xianbei people abandon the grassland forever, he moved the capital to the Central Plains, forcing all grassland tribes to change into the clothes of the Han people, learning the etiquette and culture of the Han people. Even the royal family-including himself-changed China's surname, and Hu Han completely merged into one family. Xianbei people were singled out because their ancestors originated from Gaxian Cave in Hulunbeier.
Hulunbeier, as the cradle of nomadic people in northern China, has a long way to go. First of all, at the beginning of the 10 century, the Khitans established the Liao Dynasty, occupied and ruled Beijing from 184, and in 938 Beijing became Nanjing of the Liao State. Xueyuan Temple, Tianning Temple and niujie Temple in the city were all built at that time. Qidan nationality originated from Hulunbeier; Secondly, the Jurchen nationality established the Jin Dynasty in115. After they rushed the small court of the Southern Song Dynasty to Hangzhou, it was convenient for them to make their capital in 1 153. According to historical records, "Beijing is the capital city, which began in Jin". Now Lugou Bridge, Diaoyutai and Guangji Temple are all relics of the Jin Dynasty. Jurchen nationality also originated from Hulunbeier; Secondly, it is the well-known Mongolian Empire of the Yuan Dynasty. 1267, Kublai Khan moved his capital from Helin to Beijing, and was honored as the capital of the Yuan Dynasty by the world. Because it was the most powerful period of Mongols, half of the world's territory had been divided into four empires by the descendants of Genghis Khan, and Kublai Khan was the master of the four empires. At this time, the frozen land of Europe and Asia for centuries was finally completely opened, and business trips were endless. That was when Kyle Poirot came to Beijing. Mongolian still originated from Hulunbeier.
At present, the Great Wall, which blocks the grassland army, has been ruined, and the Great Wall that separates the nationalities in my heart has long since ceased to exist. People climb the Great Wall to look back and overlook it. People go to the grassland to look for Range Rover. Honest people in the world will certainly like the magnificence of Hulunbeier; Brave people in the world will certainly praise Hulunbeier's galloping horse; Those who retreat to the world will certainly praise the freshness of Hulunbeier; People who are poets in the world will regret not growing up in Hulunbeier grassland. Only here can people who write poems and compose music realize that "people are still people, horses are still horses, grass is still grass, clouds are still clouds."
No matter how long grassland songs, vigorous grassland dances, rich grassland folk customs, beautiful grassland scenery, bright grassland flowers, beautiful grassland rivers and freehand brushwork grassland horses can only be produced in the grassland.
Without tradition, without ancestors; No features, such as seemingly no dignity; If all the green life in the world has withered, it must have left the grassland. We will find a fulcrum on the earth, and hold up this green grassland forever with soft white clouds and bright blue sky, for China and for future generations.
