Following Ye Mingkong’s exclamation, Ji Yunqi also looked in the direction of the sound. She saw that the front suddenly became a vast expanse of white, but the road conditions were still clearly visible.
This was clearly a strong wind, blowing up the snow from the ground.
In this area halfway up the mountain, such a strong wind could occur and only in this specific region, not spreading to most of the surrounding areas.
This meant one thing: there would definitely be an open space of considerable size not far ahead. In these mountains, strong winds were indeed common.
And the only way for strong winds to appear in this location was this possibility. However, since there was open space, it was worth stopping to take a look.
Perhaps there would be some special scenery to see~
This trip was initiated by Ji Yunqi, so the mother and daughter duo, Luo Yao, were just following along. As long as their own family stopped in the open space ahead, the vehicles behind would naturally stop as well.
Although the wind was quite fierce, it could not cause any serious accidents. In just a few minutes, the snow that had been blown into the sky by the wind had already returned to the ground.
The road conditions ahead were now fully visible to everyone.
It turned out that along the road ahead was a very open area, and quite a few vehicles had already stopped there, with many people taking photos and checking in.
It was just that they couldn’t clearly see what that group of people was blocking at the edge of the cliff ahead to take pictures of, but they could find out by going over to take a look.
“Son, let’s stop here for a moment. This open space seems quite interesting~” Ji Yunqi said softly in her son’s ear as she sat behind Ji Chengyun.
“Mm, okay, then let’s have a look here.”
Ji Chengyun did not refuse. They were out to have fun anyway, so where they played didn’t matter.
If they rushed just for the sake of rushing, wouldn’t that lose the true meaning of travel?
The essence of traveling was to relax. If even this couldn’t be achieved, then it wasn’t traveling anymore; they might as well change its name to rushing.
With a turn of Ji Chengyun’s steering wheel, the car slid down a slight slope beside the road. Luo Yao and her mother, who were following closely behind the family, saw them drive into the open space and naturally followed suit.
…………
After getting out of the car, Ji Yunqi’s first reaction was… cold!
Especially cold!
But upon thinking about it, even though the recent weather was still considered somewhat hot in Rongcheng, even at the foot of the mountain, only a long-sleeved shirt was needed.
However, this location had already reached the halfway point of the snow mountain, and the temperature was not comparable to the foot of the mountain at all.
On the other hand, Ji Yunqi was still only wearing a black long-sleeved shirt.
Glancing around with her peripheral vision, she noticed that her wife and son were actually wearing relatively thick outerwear. How could she not have noticed this after being in the car for so long!
This is bad, this is bad!
Ji Yunqi felt a little anxious. She realized that not only was her physical strength far inferior to her past self,
but even her brain had become increasingly foolish…
She actually forgot something so important, which was truly inexcusable!
However, since she had already gotten out of the car, there was absolutely no reason to suddenly run back. How embarrassing would that be…
She would never admit that her brain had become dull now, as this would only make her wife and son feel even more that she was only suited to be a pampered wife.
She, Ji Yunqi, was a person of integrity!
How could she be like this?!!
“There are quite a lot of people here~” Ji Chengyun noticed the crowd as soon as he got out of the car. While driving earlier, he had been very curious about what was happening here.
What was so interesting that such a large group of people were crowding and looking around.
As they were talking, Luo Yao and her mother also stopped the car and came in front of them.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Zhang Xinrou also stopped listening to her mother and stepped forward to link arms with Ji Chengyun, smiling, “Chengyun, there are so many people over there, let’s go take a look.”
Ji Chengyun hesitated. He looked back at his mother. Seeing his mother nod, he then took Zhang Xinrou and walked to the side, leaving space for the other three.
He couldn’t interfere with the affairs of the older generation. Even if it turned into a love triangle, it wouldn’t matter much to him. He only needed to protect himself now.
“Um… let’s go take a look on the other side too…..” Seeing that the atmosphere was starting to become a bit awkward again, Ji Yunqi took the initiative to speak, pointing to a spot some distance away from her son and the others.
Wasn’t the purpose of stopping the car here to see if there were any peculiar landscapes?
“Sure, let’s go.” Luo Yao took Ji Yunqi’s words and actively walked in the direction she pointed.
Ji Yunqi and her wife followed closely behind. The open space could accommodate many vehicles, but that didn’t mean it was very large, and it wasn’t far to walk to the cliff edge.
At first, Ji Yunqi didn’t think there was anything special here, just that these people were uncultured. But when she arrived here, she realized she had been wrong!
The front was shrouded in mist, and in front of them, there was the most classic landscape of high mountains – a sea of clouds!
And this was not the重點 (key point), the重點 was that within the mist enveloping the surrounding cliffs, there was a bright halo!
It radiated colorful light, like a beacon in this endless sea of fog, so wondrous and beautiful, and also so mysterious!
Ji Yunqi, who loved to travel, knew what this was.
This was the rarest of natural wonders – Buddha’s light!
In physics, Buddha’s light is a “sun halo”.
When sunlight shines on the surface of clouds and mist, it forms the Buddha’s light natural wonder through diffraction and diffuse reflection.
Sunlight casts shadows onto the clouds, and the tiny ice crystals and water droplets in the clouds form a unique circular rainbow. It is a diffraction phenomenon that occurs when strong sunlight shines on clouds and mist in cloudy weather.
The appearance of the “Buddha’s light” spectacle requires the combination of sunlight, topography, and sea of clouds, making it relatively rare.
Buddha’s light is most common in Lushan, Taishan, and Emei Mountain, and those who wish to witness the true appearance of Buddha’s light generally choose these places to visit.
Among them, the Buddha’s light on the Golden Summit of Emei Mountain is the most spectacular.
Due to the relatively harsh conditions for its formation and its exquisite beauty, it is also known as one of the Four Wonders of Emei along with the sunrise, sea of clouds, and holy lamp.
But now, such a magical natural landscape appeared on a secluded halfway point of a snow mountain, and Ji Yunqi and her companions happened to stumble upon it. Wasn’t this also a kind of luck?
However, just as Ji Yunqi was about to express her feelings, she heard the classic exclamation of Chinese tourists when they encounter beautiful scenery…
“Holy crap, that’s really f**king beautiful!”
(Don’t say you wouldn’t praise beautiful scenery like this when you see it)
