221 Ancient rhyme and new style

Jinglin Temple is in the east of Lin Luo Mansion, and Ziyi Gong is in a diagonal direction, the distance is a little far, you have to take a car to go there.

Jiang Wangfeng directly arranged a carriage, with no mahogany, but the quality was very good, and it ran very briskly.

Autumn is high and cool, the sun is golden, and from time to time there are various colors of autumn chrysanthemums passing by the side of the car, walking and watching the flowers, pleasing to the eye.

"How about it, let's Lin Luo is good. Jiang Wangfeng asked Xu Wen proudly, very proud of his hometown.

"Very beautiful. Xu Wen looked at the car and was in a very good mood.

There is a big exam tomorrow, and although he is very experienced in this area, he is still a little nervous for some reason. It's quite comfortable to be able to come out and relax at this time.

In this era, the city is actually much smaller than modern times, and it is convenient to have a car, and in more than half an hour, you can already see the Tiger Station Mountain next to the East Lake in the distance.

Huzhu Mountain is not too high, but this is a plain, this hill rises abruptly, and it looks a little steep.

The forests on the mountain are deep, the autumn mood is gradually dyed, and the green is rendered with a large area of red and yellow, with clear layers, just like everyone painted, and it is a little more vivid than the picture scroll.

The carriage stopped, and the coachman drove back to pick them up in the afternoon.

Xu Wen and Jiang Wangfeng were standing at the foot of the mountain, and as soon as they got closer, they heard the deafening sound of cicadas.

"It's noisy. The scream was too loud to ignore, and Xu Wen was directly shocked.

"Hahaha, this is also a major feature of Jinglin Temple. There's a lot to know here, but after a while it's quiet. Jiang Wangfeng said with a smile.

"I guess the name of Jinglin Temple was chosen because of this?" Xu Wen had some ideas and made a bold guess.

"Hahaha, indeed. The cicada noise forest is quieter, and the temple is named after the cicada. But at this level, I really can't calm down. Jiang Wangfeng instantly understood what Xu Wen meant, obviously having read the book.

However, Xu Wen also found that at this level in the examination, the same test is the best in each province, and almost all of them have read and read.

It can be seen that even in this era, most people do not know the meaning of reading and literacy, after all, they just can't afford to read.

A bluestone staircase leads straight to the Jinglin Temple on the mountain, two people tiptoe up the mountain, there are two backs in front, and there is no one behind. Halfway up the mountain, the two people in front of him were gone, and the cicadas around him were still singing, but Xu Wen finally felt a little quiet.

He looked down through the gap in the woods, and could faintly see a touch of the lake, and not far from the shore of the lake, there was a touch of green, and the emerald was inlaid with verdant.

"That's Poria Reef. Some say it's an island, others say it's too small to be a reef. There are too many islands in the Great Lake, and later they were counted as reefs, indicating that we have no shortage of places in the Great Lake. Poria Reef is also the property of Jinglin Temple, and now it is gone, and in the summer, this lotus blooms in the inside, which is very beautiful. "Jiang Wangfeng is worthy of being a local, and he introduced it in great detail.

The two went up the mountain while talking, and when they were about to reach the top of the mountain, Jiang Wangfeng asked, "Go to the temple first or go to ask for a talisman first?"

Xu Wen doesn't believe in gods and Buddhas, and even with such an adventure now, he doesn't have that kind of faith.

"You go and ask for a talisman, I'll take a walk and have a look. He looked at the building in front of him from a distance and said without hesitation.

"Okay, you can take a look, we'll see you here in a while, I'll tell you if there's anything you want to know. Jiang Wangfeng thought about it and nodded.

The two broke up temporarily, and Jiang Wangfeng did not pass through the front hall, but walked on a path on the side, obviously very familiar with this place.

Xu Wen looked at his back, looked up at the front hall, and slowly walked over.

Jinglin Temple is just famous, but not very large in scale - it doesn't even have a mountain gate.

To be precise, it originally had a mountain gate. But it may be a mountain collapse, the mountain gate collapsed in half, and then there was no chance to repair, and the gate gradually only left some ruins, leaning on the mountain wall, covered by mountain trees and climbing vines, looking like there was nothing.

Like the mountain gate, the front hall of Shirinji Temple is very simple. Dougong, finches, and walls are the most concise styles, and there is no trickery.

But it is such a simplicity that Xu Wen is fascinated.

What he has learned so far is fine wood, and he has practiced wood carving in the past year, mainly small work, the main focus is either exquisite, complicated, or smart, in short, they are all things that are made in the dojo in the shell of a snail.

But even so, he couldn't help but immerse himself in the simplicity and simplicity of the twists and turns in front of him.

His gaze continued to move along the lines and curved surfaces of the building, and at this moment, the deafening sound of cicadas in his ears disappeared completely, and the only thing left in the whole world was this temple, this building.

Absolutely everyone's work.

He's sure.

And this temple should be very old, and the architectural design style is not quite the same as the current one.

It has no tricks on the woodwork, and it looks very plain, but the use of the staggered lines and the folding of the space, as well as the embellishments such as the lake caryophyllum orchid, naturally renders an elegant feeling, walks in it, occasionally turns the head, often gives people a feeling of sudden enlightenment.

Complex can also be concise, elegant or gorgeous.

Xu Wen walked between the houses, and certain realizations in his heart flickered and faded, turning into deeper understanding.

If there is no pattern on the woodwork, the tile work will be different.

Xu Wen looked up at the tiles on the eaves, there were words and graphics, each one was different. Connected, it is like a poem that echoes from ancient times to the present, and people can't help but explore the mysteries.

After learning carpentry, he should learn plastering. Tile work is one of them.

I don't know how Lian Tianqing will teach him at that time, and will he have to take the apprenticeship exam again?

I took the test again and again, and it felt a little weird......

Unconsciously, Xu Wen walked from the front hall to the backyard, and he saw a path on the side, as if it had been stepped on many times, thought about it, and stepped on it.

Jiang Wangfeng said that the stele forest of Jinglin Temple is also very famous, and it should be in this direction.

Before walking to the stele forest, Xu Wen first saw a stone wall.

On the wall, the roots of an old tree are intertwined, and the roots and trunk appear and disappear between the cracks in the stones, as if they have grown out of the stones.

There are inscriptions on the wall under the tree, as if they were first inscribed and then chiseled.

Xu Wen walked over and looked up.

There are four or five words in total, some are big and some are small, the largest is only written with two words, the small one is inscribed with a poem, and there is a payment at the back.

"Beaulies. Xu Wen read out the two majestic characters, thinking that it should be the name of the mountain wall, most of which was based on the old tree on the wall.

The old tree is crooked and soaring upward, and it does have the potential of a dragon.

He was thinking about it when he suddenly heard a cat meow.

Xu asked a spirit, and looked sharply in the direction where the voice came from.

This voice is a little sharper than the average cat, and the tail note is a little soft, as if it is coquettish, no matter how it sounds, it looks like a ball!

And when he raised his eyes, a figure flashed quickly and disappeared behind the stone wall.

This figure was a little familiar, and Xu Wen didn't have time to think about it, and he had already rushed out in an arrow step.
