12th Back to Langmu Si

Everyone got up very earlier because of my leaving. Mama prepared the pancakes for me. They were still warm in my bag. I could say Goodbye to Rang’er and even could not see him. The bus was unbelievably crowded. When I pushed into the bus, it left. I cried again because of leaving.

The feeling was so strange when the bus was closer to Langmu Si, just like going home.

Met a Shanghainese girl on the bus to Langmu Si. And because of loving Langmu Si and the people there, she changed her mind to go back to Langmu Si. She just arrived at Hezuo from Langmu Si one hour before.

It was a great day, not only sunny, but it was important for Tibetan Buddhism, for every Tibetan. There was some Buddhism dance in Gansu’s monastery. The local people were sitting everywhere, and the kids were ready for the fruits the dancer would throw out to the crowded during dancing. However I had had not any idea on the meaning of their dancing. The reason was they could not explain it in mandarin.

I met on little boy and his sister at Hezuo bus station this morning. They were begging for money. I asked if they went to school and they answered me “yes”. So I gave money to both of them and bought them breakfast, but the time should be close to lunch.

The monk teacher invited me for dinner and then bought the ticket to Zöige for me. He went to the driver’s room three times because he wanted to make sure I could catch the bus.

The last night here in Langmu Si.
