Chapter 44 The Outrageous Wild Tour Guide
He was talking eloquently all the time, and the listeners were also full of interest, but apart from the few students, some tourists also gathered around to listen curiously.

He took out a bottle of mineral water from the small backpack on A Chai, who was squatting obediently beside him, and drank a couple of sips to moisten his throat.

"666, Brother Xiao, it's a pity that you don't want to be a tour guide!"

"Brother Xiao was right. When my mother carried me up the grotto in 20, it was the wooden stairs. At that time, I was quite scared. I didn't dare to walk the whole way. My mother was so scared that she was sweating. It took more than ten or twenty years to reinforce it with cement.”

"When I was in college, I went to Tianshui specifically for the Maijishan Grottoes. The terrain was too steep and I couldn't copy it, and I didn't even dare to climb it. Brother Xiao's words are very exciting!"

"Hey, the Maijishan Grottoes should hire Brother Xiao as a tour guide haha!!"

'Karasuma Renye' tipped Rocket*5.
'Little darling' rides on a rocket*1.
'What should I call it? 'Reward shark fin*20.
'I'm just a kid' donated fish balls*666
A group of college students listened and took out their notebooks to take notes from time to time. Then the girl wearing square glasses looked at Zhang Xiao curiously and asked with a smile, "How long are you planning to stay here, anchor? Can we Follow you? Don't worry, we won't bother you, we just want to hear your popular science~"

Several other people looked at Zhang Xiao expectantly.

"It's fine, I don't care. Do you know why the statues in the Maijishan Grottoes are so intact?"

why?
Everyone looked at Zhang Xiao curiously.

Zhang Xiao touched his chin and looked up: "This is due to the fact that the grotto is far away from the urban area of ​​TS, in the deep mountains and old forests, and the air is humid, which is conducive to the preservation of clay Buddha statues; the decline of Yan Buddhism has gradually faded out of people No one cares about the line of sight; the plank road is made of wood, which is easy to rot, and it is in disrepair for a long time, and it is built on the cliff, so no one dares to die to steal the statue. But the mural fell off early due to humidity, so , not as complete as the murals in Mogao Grottoes.”

"Ah, what a pity!!"

"That's right, I still remember that many of the murals in Mogao Grottoes were stolen by foreigners, it's abominable!!"

"Don't forget the national humiliation!!!"

Zhang Xiao and those college students walked up together, but just when they were about to climb up the plank road, they saw a group of people walking towards them in a hurry.

"Young man, do you want a tour guide? 50 yuan per person will do!"

Among these people were some aunts and many middle-aged men who spoke dialects, scrambling to introduce themselves to Zhang Xiao and others.

The college students who saw this kind of scene for the first time were taken aback, and Zhang Xiao couldn't laugh or cry. Did he meet a wild tour guide?
This simply adds to the discredit and confusion of the Maijishan Grottoes Scenic Spot. I really don’t know if they are related to the person in charge of the scenic spot. Why would they acquiesce in their misconduct here! !
"Excuse me, everyone, I'm sorry, we don't need it!"

In short, Zhang Xiao and the others were afraid to avoid it, and the group of field guides were still gossiping, as if they were complaining about being stingy or something.

Fortunately, the group of field guides quickly locked on a new target, and Zhang Xiao and others finally escaped smoothly.

After heaving a sigh of relief, Zhang Xiao said to them popular science: "Everyone, you must remember that no matter which scenic spot you are going to, you must never find a wild tour guide. Wild tour guides usually have a "tour guide qualification certificate", so everyone should be careful. Remember, a person with a "tour guide certificate" is not a serious tour guide, but more importantly, is he working in a regular travel agency? If it is a private or small studio, it can often be directly classified as a wild tour guide."

"Although wild tour guides have also received "professional learning", their moral bottom line is often not very high. Tourists will take tourists wherever they are interested in, with interests first, and ignore the basic quality of tour guides and related safety regulations."

"All in all, tour guides with real materials have gone to research. If you really encounter such a dialect that seems unreliable, you must hide as far away as possible. Otherwise, your travel experience will be ruined. It's going to be very uncomfortable and it can feel like a waste of money, time and energy."

"23333, I was frightened just now, the reaction of these wild tour guides is really exaggerated"

"That's right, you didn't notice the look in Brother Xiao's eyes that he wanted to eat Brother Xiao alive when he said he didn't need their tour guide!"

"Indeed, I have encountered this kind of "wild tour guide" before. They basically don't have a legal tour guide certificate. They use the method of selling high prices and low prices to cheat some tourists' trust, and then sell the tourists to black hearts. Eh no If I say too much, it’s all tears!!”

"Hey, they also specially lure tourists into private scenic spots for sightseeing, lead tourists into stores to shop and spend, and get kickbacks from merchants."

"That's not bad, okay, I also know that some wild tour guides pretend to be leading tour guides, and after tourists find out that they have been cheated, they brutally beat people without paying tour guide fees!!!"

"I don't know what the staff in the scenic spot do. Why would this kind of person be allowed in?"

"Hehe, are you a related account?"

The few college students who followed Zhang Xiao were sincerely taught at this time, and still had some lingering fears.As a group of young students who are only freshmen, although they are not too young, they have no social experience, and they don't know how to deal with such a group of people for the first time.

"Fortunately, there is this anchor to help us out."

"That's right, I got it."

"Okay, let's go on and officially visit these caves!!"

So they kept going up and passed through many caves, each of which was sealed by barbed wire. Tourists could only peek inside through the net, but it didn't affect their viewing. The thousands of years of Buddha statues are well protected.

"I personally feel that the Buddha statues in Dunhuang Mogao Grottoes are much better protected. It may be that the grottoes on Maiji Mountain are too high, and it is not easy to go up, so there is much less man-made damage."

"These caves are not big, and it is estimated that they can only accommodate 1-3 monks to sit and meditate, and even a small statue can only be placed in some caves."

Several college students followed him non-stop, and even some tourists followed him curiously.

"Look, this is Cave 148, built during the Northern Wei Dynasty. It is located slightly above the middle of the West Cliff. The Buddha is more than one meter high, with a polished high bun, a strong figure, a wide forehead, a straight nose bridge, ears hanging from the shoulders, and wearing clothes that are partial to the right. The shoulder cassock, with dense lines and close to the skin, has a typical early style."

"There are also these small Buddha statues. Maijishan belongs to sandy conglomerate, which is rough in texture and is not suitable for fine carving. They should also be stone-based clay statues. It is really rare to be able to be so detailed."

Everyone followed his line of sight and looked forward, observing these Buddha statues in a very novel way.
