Chapter Forty-Nine: The Scenery of the Dangerous Peak, Xuande Copper Furnace
The group walked up the hill while enjoying the scenery along the way.
Left half of the mountain, the scenery of the way to the ethereal view is the most beautiful, the ancients were superstitious, and also believed in God, so the construction site is the best, not only planting all kinds of pine trees along the way, but also you can see the moving scenery under the mountain along the way.
The so-called infinite scenery is the highest in the dangerous peak, and the ethereal view is the highest, which is the truth, climb high and look far away!
Within 100 meters of the ethereal view, there are bluestone steps, of course, only within 100 meters, after 100 meters, it is the mountain road, so it is hard to walk.
Chu Yunqiu planned to extend the stone steps to the bottom of the mountain after a while, so that people could reach the Ethereal View unimpeded, as for the two places of Baiyun Lake and Water Curtain Cave, Chu Yunqiu had no intention of changing, let it be.
Finally, the group slowly climbed to the highest peak on the left side of Baiyun Mountain, and faintly saw the appearance of a Taoist temple, and everyone was immediately enthusiastic and full of strength.
Chu Yunqiu didn't care, he often climbed, and often drank the water of the treasure well, and his body was better than these pampered rich sons.
He carried Lu Zhiqing's bag on his back and hugged her tightly.
"Oh, Brother Chu, in the end, it's your own daughter-in-law, it's just a different treatment", Gong Feng fell behind, panting with his mouth open!
"Brother Feng, victory is within reach, you have to work harder", Chu Yunqiu turned his head and smiled faintly!
"Don't worry, you go first, I'll follow you right away", Gong Feng really couldn't do it, he sat on the ground, and he wanted to rest for a while.
"That's it, let's go and wait for you at the gate of the Taoist Temple", Chu Yunqiu looked at Gong Feng like this, he was really bored!
"Okay, good", Gong Feng nodded straight, "I'll smoke a cigarette first, slowly", Gong Feng took out a cigarette from his pocket, he is not a person without perseverance, but he is too tired, and he can't stand it!
Chu Yunqiu and the others finally climbed to the door of the ethereal view, and looked at the ethereal atmosphere of the ethereal atmosphere, and everyone was full of shock.
I saw that directly above the door, a black bluestone slab was inlaid on it, and the words "ethereal view" were written on it.
Whether it is a line script or a regular script Chu Yunqiu didn't know, he only knew that these three words were written by the original builder himself, at least he looked at the level was not bad, it was very good-looking.
"I didn't expect you to have such a magnificent Taoist temple here", Liang Qianzhi was surprised.
"It's all the wealth left by our ancestors, and our descendants are just getting their legacy," Chu Yunqiu waved his hand.
"Let's sit down and rest first, wait for the fat man", Liang Qianzhi didn't want to get dirty, he sat on the steps, he was not tired!
"Rest, rest・・・・・・"
After waiting for twenty minutes, Gong Feng climbed up with a sigh, this goods were very smart, I don't know where to pick up a wooden stick, and came up on crutches.
Fortunately, this stick is thick enough, otherwise it may not be able to support his "plump" body!
"It's finally here, it's really tiring", Gong Feng stood at the bottom of the ethereal view, and moved his "waist", "Let's go, let's take a look, it's finally here, we must burn two more pillars of incense."
"Yes", Liang Qianzhi called his bag, "Let's start, hello incense, worship God and Buddha, we have to worship God now", the incense candles hit Liang Qianzhi's bag.
Everyone stepped forward to take incense and candles, and Ayako and Miko also stepped forward, although their culture was different from that of Huaxia, but it couldn't stop them from having a superstitious heart.
"This is the Four Heavenly Kings guarding the South Heavenly Gate", walking into the entrance, it is the Four Heavenly Kings guarding the South Heavenly Gate!
"Yes, but I prefer to call them the four generals of the demon family", Liang Qianzhi nodded, if you don't know the story of "Romance of the Gods", you are embarrassed to say that you are Chinese!
"What are the four generals of the Demon Family, and what do they have to do with the Four Heavenly Kings?" Ayako and Miko are from Japan, and they really don't know much about Chinese mythology!
"The four generals of the demon family are the four heavenly kings, they are the same, but one is the name before death, the other is the title after death, this is the southern growth king - Mo Liqing, holding the Qingfeng sword, this umbrella is the northern Duowen Heavenly King - Mo Lihong, this is holding the pipa is the king of the East - Mo Lihai, and finally this holding the flower fox mink is the western wide-eyed king - Mo Lishou, they are four brothers, each has their own magic weapon, they were called the four generals of the demon family during their lifetime, after being killed, Their souls ascended to heaven and were crowned as gods, guarding the southern heavenly gate leading to the human realm, and were called the Four Heavenly Kings", Gong Feng explained to the two daughters very conspicuously.
"Come on, come on, worship together", Chu Yunqiu lit the incense candle and shouted to everyone!
"Hey, it's coming", Gong Feng led the two girls and walked up directly, only Liang Qianzhi frowned, as if he was looking at something.
"Brother Liang, what do you want?" Gong Feng shouted directly, interrupting Liang Qianzhi's train of thought.
"It's okay, it's okay, I'm here", Liang Qianzhi put down his heart and merged with everyone.
"We put the bag here first, it's too tiring to carry it, and few people come here except for birds", Chu Yunqiu put the bag on his back at the door, and walked inside with an incense candle in his hand.
Everyone untied the burden on their backs, although it was not very heavy, but it was a little easier.
Walking into the first courtyard and looking at the two ancient trees inside, I let out an exclamation of amazement.
"Come, let's see how thick this tree is first", Gong Feng stepped forward and hugged the huge ancient pine, but one person couldn't hold it, "Brother Liang, Brother Chu, help", Gong Feng waved his hand and asked the two of them to come over.
The three of them hugged each other, just hugging the ancient tree.
"It's so thick, it's so young", Gong Feng was surprised, he had grown so big, and he had never seen such a thick tree, it was so surprising.
"How can there be a history of more than 800 years, you calculate, this Taoist temple was established in the Song Dynasty, although it was repaired several times during the period, but these trees must not have moved, the history of the Song Dynasty is 960 AD to 1279 AD, and now it is more than 2000 years, take a middle number, at least more than 800 years", the establishment of the Taoist temple, there is no time to establish at all, it can only be counted like this.
"It's been so long, this tree is really powerful", Gong Feng was amazed, and turned his head to look at the big plane tree on the other side, which was even thicker.
"How did you say this tree grows, why is it so big?" Gong Feng felt very curious.
"Okay, don't think about it, hurry up if you want to take pictures", Liang Qianzhi gave Gong Feng a slap and turned around and went to the hall next to him.
And Gong Feng was busy taking pictures, Chu Yunqiu was busy offering incense, and Lu Zhiqing and Shen Mengjie looked around, seemingly very curious.
・・・・・・
Liang Qianzhi was the first to enter the "Dragon King Palace", he looked left and right, and turned his gaze to the incense burner on the stone platform.
This incense burner is made of brass, and the whole body is light, like gold, but it is a little dull in some places, and it seems that because of the long time it has been placed, the upper part of the copper furnace is engraved with various exquisite patterns, and it is surrounded by a circle.
The whole copper furnace belly is big and round, with two ears and three legs, an open mouth, round lips, a short and thin neck, a flat belly, and three obtuse conical solid feet, which are very exquisitely manufactured.
Liang Qianzhi was a little distracted, he couldn't help but step forward, took the copper furnace in his hand, only felt a cool feeling coming from above, cold, but not thorough, he looked at the copper furnace carefully, the pattern on it was a kind of Rui beast - the fox, the shape of the fox is like a lion, like smoke and good to sit, so the image generally appears on the incense burner, and then swallows smoke and spits smoke.
The more Liang Qianzhi looked at it, the more excited he became, he poured out the incense ash in the copper furnace, looked at the bottom of the copper furnace, and six big characters appeared in front of his eyes!
"Xuande furnace ・・・・・・," Liang Qianzhi exclaimed in disbelief.
