Chapter 444: Ancient City
On February 15, 2022, on the fifth carriage of the G9109 train of the high-speed rail to the second world, a beautiful tour guide wearing a green T-shirt with the orange and yellow font of "Sunshine Travel Agency" printed on the back of the shirt, directing the tour flag with one hand and a headset with the other hand is explaining passionately to the tourists in the carriage.
"Sunshine Travel Agency, we will be in the second world in half an hour, I am the tour guide of Sunshine Travel Agency, you can call me Director Wu, and those who are older than me can also call me Xiao Wu. ”
"In the mesh bag behind the saddle, there are several second world travel brochures, and you can open the brochure with a guide to the ancient city and listen to me explain it while you read it. ”
Most of the tourists in the fifth carriage are wearing T-shirts from Sunshine Travel Agency, and each travel agency distributes T-shirts in the name of "free" in order to promote their company.
Of course, wool comes from sheep, and there is no such thing as a free lunch.
If the Rongruo high-speed railway is opened, this special line is to serve the second world, and the people on the car can be said to be all traveling to the second world. There are also LCD TVs on the high-speed train that introduce the second world, and several second world brochures are placed in the mesh bag behind each seat.
After getting on the bus, most tourists pay attention to the manuals in the net bag and read them more or less, but listening to the tactful and melodious voice of the beautiful tour guide is more attractive and more detailed.
Director Wu opened his voice and said: "The ancient city has been open for a month, and the tourists who have been there have reported that it is very interesting. Our group also went to the ancient city, and stayed in the ancient city for a total of five days. ”
"The ancient city has a total investment of hundreds of billions of yuan, with a large scale and an area of hundreds of square kilometers, which is mainly divided into two areas, one is according to the ancient Song City, and the other is the fantasy area. The area is too large and the time is limited, so we will only visit the Songcheng area this time. ”
"The Song City of the Second World is actually bigger than the ancient Song City, and this is not the kind of construction that is built in a reduced scale, but in an enlarged scale.
Have you ever seen a city wall as high as 30 meters? It is magnificent, which is 14-18 meters higher than the average ancient city wall, and the wall is also covered with green bricks, thick and solid. I heard that the heart is actually reinforced concrete, and it is estimated that the second world wants to stay for a thousand years forever and stand tall.
In addition to the magnificent and majestic city wall, there are wide moats, towering arrow towers, realistic brick carved gatehouses, towering peaks and fire towers, antique tile houses, spacious market streets, unique villa courtyards, long pavilions, ancient bridges, flowing water, stone workshops, ancient towers, gardens, etc., you can see ...... everywhere"
"There are several gates in the ancient city, and the gate of the attraction is at the Dongzheng Gate, which is also an area for tourists to access their personal belongings and rent ancient costumes, register with their personal accounts, and confirm their fingerprints. ”
"The biggest feature of the ancient city of the second world is that tourists cannot bring modern communication tools into the city, such as mobile phones, cameras, and other modern tools that are exposed. ”
The beautiful tour guide explained in a colorful voice, and her demeanor was elegant, and the tourists in the carriage listened with relish.
"Director Wu, I can still understand wearing ancient costumes, why can't I bring in mobile phone cameras, for ladies who love to take pictures, it's just painful. A tourist asked curiously, his face depressed.
Director Wu patiently explained: "I don't understand either, the official explanation is that if everyone brings a mobile phone or camera, tourists will take selfies, which will affect the atmosphere, which is nondescript."
Moreover, everyone comes to the ancient city to play, away from the city, mainly to make people forget their personal identity, forget their troubles, return to nature, and have fun, as if they have traveled to ancient times.
Yes, when you don't see a hint of modernity, you suspect that you have traveled back in time.
When eating in a restaurant, you are not called "waiter", but "Xiaoer". There are also some tourists who sell ancient texts, and to be honest, I am quite envious, although a little coquettish.
Most tourists are a little uncomfortable on the first day of entering the ancient city, but after playing for a few days, every tourist looks much better, so the ancient city is a holy place to cultivate body and mind. ”
At this time, the scenery of the ancient city was being played on the LCD TV.
What catches your eye is a small courtyard with a blue brick flower wall, located on the bank of a lotus pond, and the wall of the small courtyard is surrounded by emerald green geckos, mixed with colorful flowers, which seems to be fragrant.
The green grass everywhere is like a fungus, the weeping willows on the lakeside, the warbler is crying, the cicadas are singing, and the long bridge on the lake is crossing.
The lake is not far away, and the winding path leads to a secluded place, passing through the cobblestone path and reflecting the quaint grass pavilion. Around the pavilion, fences, flower beds, ancient trees are arranged, strange flowers compete for beauty, and sea stone rockeries are strange.
With the camera shifting, you can see the ancient buildings such as Tingquan Tower, Gaoshi Pavilion, Wangfeng Tower, Shouzhen Tower, tavern, etc., with floors and pavilions, winding corridors, elegant and chic.
There are also pavilions and ancient temples dotted between the green mountains and green waters, built by the mountains, beautiful and picturesque, pleasing to the eye, there are also peaks and peaks hanging down, the forests are lush, the green mountains are dripping green, the mountain streams mean, the water is clear and the stones are seen, the silver waterfall is falling, it is full of primitive mountain and wild atmosphere.
There are also reckless primeval forests, with ancient trees covering the sky and the sun, which is gloomy and terrifying.
Director Wu explained and talked eloquently, and the tourists in the carriage listened curiously while watching the video.
"Director Wu, what if the family calls and no one answers for a few days, what if you think something is wrong?" asked a tourist in the carriage with his hand raised.
Director Wu shrugged his shoulders and smiled helplessly: "Yes, there are also disadvantages to this rule in the second world, but we can only adapt to it." Before entering the ancient city, you must make it clear to your family, or you can post a personal announcement in your WeChat space.
If you can rest assured, the phone can also be kept for me, and I will go into the ancient city to find you again if there is an emergency, but the ancient city is too big, so I can only wait at your accommodation. ”
Keeping the mobile phone for the tour guide is just a helpless and emergency method, but most tourists are afraid of personal privacy leakage, and do not want to keep the mobile phone to the tour guide, so they can only follow the guide's method to remind their families that they will enter the ancient city and cannot be contacted within a few days.
"Life in the ancient city is completely different from the city, there is no electricity at night, and reading by candlelight is not customary, and everyone rests very early. Or go to the night market in the street to listen to songs, row boats, and find snacks. ”
"Like the more troublesome, there is no running water, and you can go to the well to fetch water and hot water in person. However, as we all know, the second world is like spring all year round, and it will not be cold, some tourists prefer to take cold water, of course, there are hot springs in good courtyards, but the rent is very expensive. ”
"Although the ancient city has been cut off from modern tools, there are many activities in the ancient city, such as horse riding, horse racing, archery, mahjong, cruises, poetry recitation, juggling, chef competitions, shadow plays, chess, pot throwing, cockfighting, kite flying, etc., there are too many to count anyway.
The ancient city naturally also has a palace, the palace is magnificent, the brocade guard is performed by special forces, the emperor of course also has an official person to perform, tourists can enter the palace to see the early dynasty, and there are many games in the palace for tourists to play. ”
"Director Wu, is there a Spring Building?" shouted a man in the carriage who looked a little obscene, causing the tourists in the workshop to laugh.
Director Wu didn't care, smiled and said, "Of course Chunlou has it, but it's not as you think."
It's really a show, not sex, but all the beauties are big beauties, each beauty is proficient in two or three ancient musical instruments, sheng, flute, suona, zheng, pipa, liuqin, erhu and dozens of other kinds, I can't remember so much, I want to go in and listen to a lot of costs. ”
Director Wu looked at the familiar scenery outside the car, and the train was about to enter the second world, so he reminded: "Okay, it's about to go to the second world, if you have any questions, you still have to find out and watch slowly after entering the ancient city." ”
"Just now a tourist asked me about the Kowloon Holy Pagoda attractions, this 1688-meter Kowloon Holy Pagoda was opened on New Year's Day last year, and it is also very popular there. ”
