The mountain wall on the other side of the camp on the growth of a cypress tree alone, is said to be the first cypress here, by passing the Tibetan worship, prayer flags hung around. We helped the wizard then hang several long prayer flags, together with a small horse. Rouzi horse rightfully took first, his hair was yellow brown, body symmetry, the value of about two hundred thousand. In Qinghai Tibetan areas, horse tradition has faded over time, motorcycle replaced the horse role, many families would not horse, lead us to the mountain for the horse has become a difficult task, but also very expensive. Rouzi home is an exception, his grandfather told him that he must keep the horse tradition, keep a good horse don't come to see him. Rouzi Cordyceps business is big, the family also would not need to obtain economic value through the horse, but he still had ten horses, said the family tradition can not be lost.
