After sweeping his eyes, Lian Ge withdrew his gaze, and as before, cast his gaze out of the window, watching the passing scenery.
……
"Sir, this is your set meal."
Soon, the flight attendant took a plate and put a set meal in front of Lian Ge.
Looking away, he nodded, but Lian Ge didn't move his chopsticks.
Soon, the flight attendant turned and left, and the mouse that had been cast with the 'invisibility' technique quickly jumped off Lian Ge's shoulder and onto the dining table, beside the plate.
Raising his head, the little white mouse looked at Lian Ge, and seeing that Lian Ge had no intention of eating, he immediately pounced on the food on the dinner plate and took a bite.
After a moment, the mouse's chewing movement froze, looked down at the dinner plate, then at Lian Ge,
"Squeak, squeak..."
The little white mouse barked twice, and then exited the dinner plate.
Just turned around the dinner plate several times.
"Squeak... squeak."
"You have a tricky mouth."
Lian Ge looked at the little white mouse with its forelimbs upright, couldn't help but smiled and said in a low voice.
"Squeak..."
After two more calls, the little white mouse left the dining table, followed Lian Ge's arm again, and ran onto Lian Ge's shoulder.
Looking at it, Lian Ge couldn't help but smiled again.
Stretching out his hand, he used the dust whisk on the little white mouse and himself. After that, Lian Ge stood up again.
……
After paying the bill, one person and one mouse returned to the original carriage.
Inside the carriage, it has become quiet again, many people are taking a nap, and the couple is also carefully coaxing the baby who has fallen asleep.
After sweeping his eyes, Lian Ge returned to his seat and sat down.
The running high-speed rail gradually approached Guangling City.
Chapter 145 Seeing Sex Temple
"Brother is out on a trip?"
"That's it."
"It's really the right time to come to Guangling for tourism. Slender West Lake, Yucheng Station, and Qiling Temple are all famous scenic spots in Guangling. And brother, you came at the right time. Guangling is also called Moon City. This It's almost the Mid-Autumn Festival, it's the right time to appreciate the moon...Little brother, where are we going, please tell me the place."
"Let's go to Qiling Temple."
"Okay, let's go now..."
At the exit of Guangling high-speed railway station, beside the road, Lian Ge took a casual look at the crowds pouring out of the high-speed railway station and got into a taxi.
"...Our Guangling is one of the first batch of famous historical and cultural cities. As the saying goes, one tomb benefits the second, which means our Guangling...Little brother, you go directly to Qiling Temple, have you found a place to stay for the night? Shall I recommend you one?"
"no need."
"That's fine, anyway, there are hotels everywhere now, so I'm not afraid that I won't be able to find a place to stay..."
Following the enthusiastic words of the taxi driver, the taxi drove Lian Ge towards Daming Temple quickly.
……
After some time,
The taxi stopped again.
"Brother, this is Qiling Temple. If you want to visit the temple, there is the ticket office over there."
Hearing this, Lian Ge nodded, and after paying the fare, he opened the door and got out of the car.
Immediately, the hustle and bustle at the entrance of the scenic spot surged in. After glancing at the bustling tourists of all kinds rushing towards Qiling Temple, Lian Ge glanced at Qiling Temple, which is engraved with "the first view of Huaidong" on the courtyard wall. .
Unlike most temples, Qiling Temple is not built on a mountain due to the gentle terrain of Yangzhou itself, but stands on the lakeside and is built next to the lake.
Glancing at the mountain gate of Qiling Temple and the towering Qiling Pagoda inside,
Withdrawing his gaze, he did not enter Qiling Temple.
Lian Ge moved his steps away again, avoiding the crowd, and walked along the courtyard wall of Qiling Temple towards the back of Qiling Temple.
……
As the pace moves forward, the bubbling noise is gradually left behind, and the figures of the tourists beside me are gradually thinning out.
"Young man, are you also here to travel? You don't need to go later, there is nothing."
A tourist walking back along the road saw Lian Ge and couldn't help persuading him.
Hearing this, Lian Ge smiled slightly,
"Thank you."
After thanking him, Lian Ge didn't stop, and continued walking along the path outside the temple wall.
Seeing this, the tourist shook his head and continued to walk back along the road without any further persuasion.
……
As Lian Ge continued to move forward along this trail, the walls of the temple courtyard gradually moved away.
The path under the feet has also changed from being paved with stone slabs to a human-made dirt road.
And maybe it rained last night, and the muddy road that has not yet dried out is wrapped in wet mud. If you step on it, the soles of your shoes will be stained with a thick layer of mud.
The vast majority of tourists here will choose to return along the original road.
Stepping on the dirt road, Lian Ge continued to move forward unhurriedly,
The already gentle terrain became low-lying as the dirt road continued to descend.
At the same time, the breeze blew across the lake, causing ripples, and the sound of patting on the shore of the lake came to Lian Ge's ears clearly with the wind from a distance.
Along the road, Lian Ge walked unhurriedly, staring at the distance, smiling slightly,
As the tourists returning along the road said, there is nothing behind Qiling Temple, except for this wide lake,
……
Finally, the dirt road came to an end, and the wide lake clearly appeared in front of Lian Ge.
The calm surface of the lake is sparkling under the sunlight, and the cool breeze from the lake surface blows on Lian Ge from time to time,
Looking as far as the eye can see along the surface of the lake, in the lake, far away from the shore, there is an island in the lake, which is not connected to land on all sides of the lake.
The area of the islands in the lake is not small, presenting a mid-high and low-lying terrain on all sides, just like the peaks protruding from the lake,
It is overgrown with trees and trees, and near the top of the mountain, you can vaguely see an ancient building through the shade of the trees.
Pausing his gaze slightly, Lian Ge stared at the island in the lake and the building on it, and smiled slightly.
Withdrawing his gaze, Lian Ge looked closer again,
In front of him, beside the lake is a tidal flat, covered with weeds and silt, there is no doubt that if you step into it, you will be deeply immersed in it.
And at the end of the tidal flat, on the edge of the slightly rippling lake, there are still two small boats parked, tied to two wooden stakes deep in the ground.
However, although there is a ferry boat, there is no ferryman, and there are several meters of mud flat between the boat and the end of the dirt road.
Even if tourists come here and see the island in the lake like Lian Ge, they can only stay away from the beach.
……
Withdrawing his gaze, Lian Ge cast his gaze on one of the small boats.
Driven by mana, Lian Ge jumped lightly, like a fallen leaf, gently crossed the tidal flat and landed on the somewhat damp boat.
Untying the hemp rope tied to the stake, Lian Ge picked up the oars on the boat, supported the beach, and let the boat return to the lake.
"Wow...wow..."
Holding the wooden paddle and stirring the water surface, the boat moved again.
……
After turning it a few times, Lian Ge shook his head and put down the wooden paddle in his hand, seeing that the boat was not far from the shore.
Standing up in front of the boat again, Lian Ge stared at the distant islands in the lake,
Driving mana, waved his hand.
In an instant, a gust of wind came from behind Lian Ge, blowing the water near the small boat, pushing the small boat towards the island in the lake without any haste.
……
Just standing with hands behind their backs, standing on the small boat, with the gusts of breeze, the boat and people kept approaching the island in the lake.
at last,
The boat carrying Lian Ge stopped again on the shore of the island in the lake.
Different from the lake, the island in the lake is different, there is a small wooden pier,
A wooden corridor extends from above the water, across the tidal flats on the side of the island, to the end of a winding upward road.
After casually tying the canoe to the wooden stakes, Lian Ge jumped onto the slightly damp wooden corridor.
On the corridor, there are many traces of wooden repairs, stepping on it, and there are some sounds.
Walking down the corridor, Lian Ge stopped slightly at the end of the road.
Slightly raised his head, looked at the winding road, passing through the dense tree shade, and extending to the top of the central mountain peak of the island,
Withdrawing his gaze, Lian Ge moved his pace again and walked forward along the winding road.
……
Leaving the shore, the trees on both sides of the path became denser and denser, and the dappled sunlight shone on Lian Ge through the gaps in the forest.
The sounds of insects and birds singing all over the forest made the forest extraordinarily quiet.
As the winding path gradually goes up, the road turns into steps made of bluestone slabs, leading straight to the top of the mountain.
The bluestone slab has not been carved very much, and it still has natural traces, and there are some blue moss on the places on both sides that have not been stepped on much.
But on the entire staircase, there are very few dead branches and leaves, obviously cleaned frequently.
Passing through the sun dappled and densely shaded mountain forest, Lian Ge climbed up the steps without any haste.
at last,
At the end of the steps, a temple with a small gate appeared in Lian Ge's sight.
His eyes paused slightly, Lian Ge raised his head slightly, and looked over the faded temple gate.
On the hanging plaque, three words are clearly engraved - "Jianxing Temple"
Withdrawing his gaze, he glanced at both sides of the temple gate. The ash on the wall had been mottled and fallen off the masonry courtyard wall inside. Lian Ge moved his steps again and walked to the front of the temple gate.
Stretching out his hand, Lian Ge knocked on the gate of 'Jianxing Temple'.
Chapter 146 The Old Zen Master
"Boom...boom...boom."
After knocking the temple gate, there was a commotion in the temple immediately,
"Come on, wait a minute."
Fakong's voice came from the temple, followed by the sound of footsteps from far to near,
"Crack!"
The deadbolt was removed from the back of the door, and the heavy wooden door was swung inward.
