Xingzhe didn't eat less for lunch, Feng Wu looked at Xingzhe with a hellish expression, glanced at Xingzhe's stomach from time to time, and muttered to himself: "How can this belly contain so much raw frying?" ”

Xingzhe couldn't eat anymore, so he gave up the idea of continuing to stuff a few more into his mouth.

After eating, Feng Wu took Xingzhe to a park, and he thought that Xingzhe would definitely like it.

In fact, there are no parks in Datang, and most of the gardens are decorated by people with cultural accomplishments, or by wealthy families. Of course, there are some particularly large gardens that are decorated by several people at the expense of each other.

This kind of garden is generally only for the owner and friends to drink and write poems, and occasionally gather, and is not open to outsiders.

But there are those that are not open to outsiders, and there are those that are open to outsiders, and the Yao Ge Garden where Feng Wu took Xingzhe is such a garden.

It was a very large garden, built by a joint venture of eight wealthy literati, who were originally only used for their own amusement, but later found out that they were also very busy and could not come back a few times a month.

In the end, the eight people discussed, and left it idle all the time, it is better to rent it to those poor scholars who have no money, or those nouveau riche who have money but no education, but want to pretend to be forced.

As a result, the eight of them never expected that this idea would make them a lot of money. Whether it is a literati who does not have a garden of their own, or a nouveau riche who pretends to be coerced, as they expected, they drill into their gardens in groups.

Although they each run their own businesses, despite this, Yao Geyuan's monthly income accounts for a large part of their total income.

After Xingzhe paid the viewing fee, he entered the Yaoge Garden with Feng Wu, and as soon as he entered the Yaoge Garden, Xingzhe was shocked by the scenery in the garden.

Xingzhe didn't think that he was a person with any connotation, but even so, when he saw the flowers and grass in the Yao Ge Garden, Xingzhe nodded again and again in shock, but he couldn't wait to take pictures immediately.

The gardener uses a unique gardening technique, in a limited space, through stacking mountains and rivers, planting flowers and trees, configuring garden buildings, and using a large number of plaques, couplets, calligraphy and painting, carving, steles, furniture and various ornaments to reflect philosophical concepts, cultural consciousness and aesthetic taste, so as to form a poetic and picturesque literati freehand landscape garden, so that people "do not go out of the city and get the pleasure of mountains and rivers, live in the city and get the fun of forest springs", and achieve the artistic situation of "although made by people, it is like the sky opens".

Xingzhe had to admire this group of wealthy literati, who not only had such high attainments and understanding in culture and art, but also were able to earn money to build such a large garden with their own skills, which was simply a model for scholars.

The first attraction that Xingzhe and Feng Wu came to was Bilang Pavilion, because the Yao Ge Garden was too big, so there was a special maid to lead the way, just like a tour guide.

Pacing the Bilang Pavilion, before entering the garden gate, you will see a pool of green water around the outside of the garden, the waterfront mountain is rocky, the corridor is winding like a belt, the leaky window in the corridor integrates the mountains and rivers inside and outside the garden. The main scenery in the park is the mountain stone, the ancient trees on the mountain are towering to the sky, there is a pond under the mountain, and the mountains and rivers are connected by a zigzag corridor.

Bilang Pavilion is outside the clear pond, the winding corridor is green, the ancient trees are green, and the lake stone is stacked. It is known as "the end of the eternal waves, the blue wave pavilion, and the water pavilion".

The main scenic spot of Bilang Pavilion takes the mountains and forests as the core, surrounded by buildings, pavilions and the promenade that rises and falls by the mountains and uses the water paintings outside the park, through the infiltration of the leaky windows on the corridor, communicates the mountains and water inside and outside the park, and makes the water surface, the pond bank, the rockery, and the pavilion and pavilion become one. The stone path on the mountain in the garden is circling, the ancient trees are verdant, the bamboo is covered, the vines are hanging, the wild flowers are clustered, the simplicity is natural, and the scenery is as smooth as the real mountain and wild forest.

The Bilang Pavilion is hidden on the top of the mountain, it is high on the hills, and the eaves are volleying in the sky. The structure of the pavilion is quaint and harmonizes with the atmosphere of the entire garden. The pavilion is surrounded by five or six tall trees that are hundreds of years old.

The stone on the pavilion "Bilang Pavilion" is written by Li Bai, the Qinglian Sword Immortal. The stone carved couplets on the stone pillars: The breeze and the bright moon are priceless; There is love near the water and far away mountains.

Bilang Pavilion stands on the mountain, high and open, the stone pillar cornices, ancient and magnificent, the ancient wood on the mountain is lush, verdant and dripping, the left and right stone path oblique corridors are all out of the bamboo, banana, between the shade, the winding corridor next to the mountain follows the waves, can be rested. Escape to the pavilion center, can rely on the scenery of the whole garden of the mausoleum, in the old days, you can overlook the south garden field village light, look around the pole can be counted miles, the ripples outside the garden are reflected with the mountain pavilion, the pavilion pillar stone carving beads are unique, it is said that the stone chess table in the pavilion is the relic of Zimei.

There are all kinds of leaky windows embedded in the curved corridor wall in the Bilang Pavilion, listen to the tour guide maid said, there are a total of one hundred and eight styles, the appearance is various, the hollow pattern is also brilliant and colorful, as far as the shape of the leaky window frame is concerned, there are square, polygonal, round, fan-shaped, begonia-shaped, vase-shaped, pomegranate-shaped, Ruyi shaped, autumn leaf shape, palace shape, peach shape, etc., most of the leaky window shape is mostly square and polygonal.

Generally speaking, the rows of leaky windows in the corridor are mostly the same or similar in shape, size and interval, producing a harmonious sense of rhythm. Some special window frame shapes are not very common in the Bilang Pavilion, such as fan-shaped, pomegranate-shaped, autumn leaf-shaped, peach-shaped, single number, distributed at the turn of the corridor or in a cave door, using different window frame colors from the corridor, forming multiple visual aesthetic effects.

The core pattern of the window leaky window has a wide range of materials and various forms, which can be roughly divided into natural figurative shapes and geometric abstract shapes. There are many types of natural figurative patterns in the Bilang Pavilion.

The patterns of natural shapes are taken from a wide range of materials, including the deformation of plants and flowers, such as peaches, lotuses, tangled roots, plantain leaves, plum blossoms, autumn leaves, sunflowers, etc.

There is also a deformation of ancient coins, the deformation of round square hole coins, placed in the center of the window core, interspersed with winding decorative patterns; There is also a deformation of a shape similar to a Chinese knot, and the style is beautiful and generous; There are also the deformation patterns of folding fans and the deformation of chessboards.

The deformation of the natural form of insects, fish, birds and beasts is not common in the window core pattern of the Bilang Pavilion, with turtle back patterns and cloud dragon patterns. Through the leaky window, the scenic spot seems to be separated but not separated, and it seems to be hidden but not visible. Looking out, the light and shadow are often mottled, so that the original scenery is expanded and extended.

As Xingzhe's footsteps moved, the scenery also changed, and it really produced the effect of "one step at a time" and "one scene at a time".

Xingzhe admires these ancient craftsmen very much, in this era when science and technology are not developed, they can make much more exquisite handicrafts than Xingzhe's era, this kind of craftsman spirit, Xingzhe admires very much.
