Zheng Jingtai

"What is the meaning of life?"
This is a big question,

At an age when life is full of doubts,
After having a family and a career,
He tried to let go of everything and
use A brief "derailment", asking about the meaning of life.

9. In March, Penghu County in the north of Quanzhou was still experiencing scorching heat. When we met Zheng Jingtai, he and his wife Qingying were resting on a hilltop, under the shade of a tree with a cool breeze blowing. Due to long periods of eating and sleeping in the open, the two of them were very dark and thin, but they did not feel tired at all.
Starting in March 2022, they rode horses to Quanzhou and walked 6,500 kilometers across China. Along the way, I shared my daily life with 200,000 friends using the "horse riding in all directions" method. There are currently 3 days left, and the journey of more than 500 days is about to end.
In the afternoon, the asphalt road was a little faded by the sun. According to their previous habits, they divided their forces into two groups. Zheng Jingtai was responsible for leading the horse forward, while Qingying was responsible for finding a campsite for the night.
Riding in cities and towns is quite magical
Riding on horseback, Zheng Jingtai looks as confident as a "prince". "Sitting on a horse, you must always straighten your legs and straighten your back."
Riding a horse on a contemporary street is quite out of place, even a bit like Don Quixote. Whenever he rides past pedestrians, Everyone would exclaim: "Where are you riding a horse? Is this horse yours?" Several children chased him for several streets.
Whenever he meets someone who takes the initiative to chat, he always carefully introduces where he is from and where he is going on horseback, a bit like Tang Monk who is seeking Buddhist scriptures from the West.
Preparing to shoe the horse
After arriving at the camp, the couple prepared to shoe the horse "Thirteen", which is equivalent to dressing the horse. A new pair of shoes.
The whole process was extremely difficult. It took two people to lift the horse's hind legs and calm the horse before starting to nail. After working for half an hour, their soaked clothes stuck to their thin and bulging backs.
This time we camped in a factory building in a reservoir. The lighting at night relied on the bright moonlight and a few fireflies. In Qingying's memory, the conditions of this camp were considered good. In the past, I even slept next to him.
This small tent, like a drifting island, gave them a night of peace.
I don’t know if it was to celebrate that he was about to return to his destination. The next day, Zheng Jingtai also put on a pair of brand new white cloth shoes.
Resisting “vulgarity”
Two years ago, Zheng Jingtai was a law firm partner who wore formal suits and black leather shoes to work every day. "I was very busy every day at that time. When I stopped occasionally, I would feel that I had fallen into the stench of copper and became vulgar."
In the first 40 years of his life, he struggled with "vulgarity" every day. "struggle.
Zheng Jingtai, who grew up in Heilongjiang, was raised by his grandparents after his mother passed away. Grandma collects scraps, and grandpa repairs bicycles in Qiaotou. The family has always been poor and went to Hope Primary School.
Single-parent family, school bullying... During his childhood, he accumulated a lot of unpleasant things. "I can only live in the spiritual world, hoping that one day I can become passionate and carefree."
He held a breath in his heart, and started working hard from the third grade of junior high school, and finally I was admitted to Southwest University of Political Science and Law and "escaped forever."
Zheng Jingtai always has a utopia in his heart
After becoming a lawyer, he shuttled between law firms, entertainment and defense every day. "Sometimes it feels against my will, so I only spend half of my time making money every year, and the other half to find my dream lifestyle."
He has opened egg tart shops, and at most there were more than 20 chain stores. .
He worked as a manager in a hospital and rushed to the disaster area on the night of May 12th, leading 7 doctors to rescue 4 critically ill patients.
He taught himself how to ride a bicycle and traveled all over China when he had free time. I lived with the real person and worked as a courier in Hainan for two months just to experience a different life.
He also ran alone into the mountains of Xishuangbanna, dazed...
Zheng Jingtai has been "derailing", and he is trying to make his life more dramatic. To be more precise, he wanted to expand his limited life in terms of density and quality. "When I die one day, I hope that when someone mentions me, they will say that this is an interesting person."
From a romantic knight couple to a down-to-earth ascetic< /p>
This “derailment” in early 2022 was unusual. At that time, he had been married to his wife for 2 years and had a child who was over 1 year old.
"But you only live once in your life, right? This time, can I take a little time for myself to be wild?"
Zheng Jingtai used a poem by Haizi , convinced his wife Qingying. "He told me to chop wood and feed horses, travel around the world... facing the sea. I immediately heard the artistic conception he wanted." The big-hearted Qingying agreed.
Zheng Jingtai proposed a way to be "unbridled" that was full of fantasy and a little paranoid - riding a horse. "Because horses in ancient times were a means of transportation and a noble animal. There is an old saying that raising horses is equivalent to raising a gentleman."
After some hard work with their family members, they finally convinced "They could only say silently, pay attention to safety and come back early."
They spent a long time preparing, including designing a carriage themselves
p>
They spent nearly half a year preparing, purchasing cards, tents, sleeping bags... and even solar panels and satellites. The planned route starts from Ningxia, Shaanxi, Hubei, Jiangxi, and Jiangxi. It is planned to take two years to walk the "eight thousand miles of clouds and moons".
The epidemic has not disrupted their rhythm at all.
On March 18, Zheng Jingtai and Qingying got on a plane from their hometown of Quanzhou. The two of them were filled with joy for the unknown.
They went straight to the home of a local herdsman in Ili and selected a handsome Western Region stallion with 25% Ili horse blood. "Ili horses are like native dogs and are not prone to illness." They said. Name it "Thirteen".
On April 2, two people and two horses officially started this "incredible trip in the eyes of many people." Later in Xi'an, "Heiwa" also joined their team.
Wearing ancient costumes, like ancient knights
Zheng Jingtai’s mobile phone still has a picture of the two of them galloping on a horse in ancient costumes at the beginning of the journey.
He often took it out and looked at it: "I thought it was very romantic at first, like the knights in ancient times, a pair of eagle knights, galloping on the grasslands and snowy mountains. When you arrive at the inn, the waiter will help you lead the horse. , the two were well-dressed and entangled."
When passing through the no-man's land, they saw a scenery that "felt like they were not on earth." At dusk, the sky is full of clouds. When the sun shines, it changes from red to purple, much like nebulae in the universe. As soon as the horse moved, a puff of smoke drifted behind him. "I was so moved that I almost cried. I felt very small and shocked."
The two of them have lost more than 30 kilograms since their departure.
But reality still slapped Zheng Jingtai. 99% of the journey was difficult, and the two of them were as disgraced as beggars, often unable to take a shower.
Slowly, happiness is evolving. From originally just wanting to be romantic, to constantly overcoming my own joy.
"No matter how hard it is to travel on horseback, even if you are penniless, even if you have no house and can only find a bridge to sleep in, but when you see it raining outside and you are not getting wet, you will be stupid Laugh out loud, the kind of happiness you can’t buy with money.”
Zheng Jingtai and Qingying learned to survive in the wild, avoid extreme weather, recognize the east, west and north in places where there is no signal, and understand horse language. , drive a carriage, and taste herbs like Shennong...
"Use dreams as horses"
Basically, their lives revolve around The horses circled around, and they became friends of life and death.
On the day we met Zheng Jingtai, because it was too hot, "Thirteen"'s nostrils were dilated, as if he had a sunstroke, and he kept spinning in place. Suddenly, his legs fell to the ground and he began to roll. .
Zheng Jingtai was collecting water. When he saw this, he immediately ran to "Thirteen" and pulled it hard. "He must be made to move immediately."
He could tell the difference immediately. The strangeness of "Thirteen" is due to "a long-term illness that leads to a cure." "Horses will not roll around on the roadside easily. They must have a stomachache. If they are not taken care of well, they may have tuberculosis. 90% of horses in the world die of tuberculosis."
"Thirteen "It has always been greedy. In the Gobi Desert, it once overfed itself, its stomach and intestines were knotted, and it was so painful that it shed tears on the roadside. The couple were at a loss and could only "open their hands and kneel down to stop a car" on the national highway... …
Qingying fed the horse yogurt solution
It also mistakenly ate a plant called "drunken horse grass" and was directly hit.
Fortunately, a police car passed by and took them to the nearest town to buy yogurt (yogurt can neutralize alkali). "Thirteen" drank four boxes of yogurt, and then they got better.
There were times when Ma also "cured" Zheng Jingtai. That time in Jiuquan, Zheng Jingtai suddenly stayed in the hospital for three days. The two horses were handed over to the care of the horse farm. When he returned, the untied horses were waiting for him next to the tent. The person taking care of her said that no one could take her away.
"Horses are so understanding of human nature. They are animals that can suffer from depression. If you treat them badly, they will also be unhappy. How you treat a horse will change its personality."
Zheng Jingtai said that 99.9% of people on this horseback trip did not understand
The "feat" of Zheng Jingtai and Qingying along the way was not understood. Little local media coverage.
For a time, "Couple riding horses across China" became a hot search on Weibo, and it was suddenly thrust into the public eye and accumulated 200,000 fans. More than 40 people have become their loyal fans and even formed a WeChat group.
Every few days, Zheng Jingtai will broadcast live. Although thousands of people watch it, his income is very small, less than 40 yuan in total.
The self-media did not bring any reversal to them. It was more that they did not understand, "Get a horse out and the horse will be almost exhausted. You have nothing to do when you are full. Hold on." "
But Zheng Jingtai doesn't care: "Everyone is lonely. If I do something to ask for the approval of others, I have failed. "
< p>China’s “Larry”
“I often wonder what the meaning of life is? Metaphysical, general, and empty theories are very important to me. ”
He said that he was like a person who came out of "Blade".
Page 267 of "Blade" reads: "I feel that there is a power in my body that is eager to expand. I am willing to accept all kinds of life, no matter how sad and painful it is; I feel that only endless life, One life after another can satisfy my desire, my vitality, and my curiosity."
"Blade" is the protagonist of Larry, a novel created by the British writer Somerset Maugham. Based on Wittgenstein
When Zheng Jingtai read this for the first time more than twenty years ago, he was inspired to run away from home. "How did he say what was in my heart? I want to live this imaginative life until my death and turn this nonsense into reality."
"My life is a bit like the protagonist Larry , don’t care about material things, and hope to pursue happiness as much as possible in the spiritual world.”
William Cimilow and Bus No. 1310
1947, New York. William Cimillo, the driver of bus No. 1310, suddenly drove the bus 2,092 kilometers away from New York after driving a bus for 20 years.
Later, he was arrested for vehicle crimes, and everyone raised funds for him to pay for his lawyer's fees. He did what many people wanted to do but didn't dare to do, and became a street star at that time. Cimillo was later interviewed. He said: "Escape from everything, that's what I want to do."
Richard Russell, the man who stole the plane in Seattle
Half a century later, in 2022, there was a ground handler at Seattle Airport in the United States, Richard Russell. After finishing his regular work for the day, he sneaked into the cockpit of a passenger plane on the tarmac. He stole the plane, started the engine, and piloted the plane to make a series of thrilling maneuvers. 75 minutes later, it crashed on a small island.
No one knows why this young man would do such a crazy thing on an ordinary summer night. For a long time after that, "the man who stole planes in Seattle" became an open topic that dominated the screen that year.
The driver who stole the bus and the person who stole the plane seemed to have the same expression: "People can live freely." - Without this simple ideal, then this horse riding Travel cannot take place.
Half life, half poetry
"The greater significance of this journey to me may be a kind of 'maturity', I can begin to appreciate the beauty of 'vulgar' and trivial daily life."
Zheng Jingtai said that his temper was almost worn out, and now he feels very calm. Temporarily derailed, it’s time to come back.
He wants to say goodbye to his former self. "Because with love, family, and children, people's mentality will change. You will have more responsibilities and not only live for yourself. For me, maybe this is a change.
"
Zheng Jingtai once wrote this poem to Qingying:
"I can't save your lonely heart myself
Can you give me a promise
Let me hold on tightly
I can’t handle the confused days by myself
Can you give me one
Let me pray."
Now as a father, Zheng Jingtai wants to make more efforts to make up for the impact of his previous unrestrained imagination.
"I feel that family happiness I am very happy. I have never experienced this before when I return home and watch my wife and children on the hot bed. "Now he has received a "promise" and a "".
"This is a necessary process, and I am also looking forward to the peaceful days in the future," Qingying said, "My thoughts are gradually merging with his. Life is half poetry and half fireworks. I think this is what we are looking forward to now. "
The original budget for the trip was 200,000, but now it has cost more than 400,000 and is already heavily in debt. But Zheng Jingtai is very optimistic about this: "I will go back and work hard as a lawyer. You can earn it back in a month. ”
After returning home to Quanzhou, they fell asleep for several days, began to build a stable, took care of the children, and prepared to move on to a new life.
No matter it was derailed again and again, Whether it is his final return, Zheng Jingtai is fulfilling his childhood wish: "I hope to live like a sun, which will emit a kind of light of life, so that another life will feel happy after seeing and contacting it, and feel that life is worthwhile." Very interesting. I want to live like that sun. "
