—————————————————

On the thirteenth day of the first month, Ding Yang said goodbye to his parents and took Zhou Qingni on a journey to Hengdian.

Because Zhou Qingni's comic "Pleasant Goat and Big Big Wolf" that is being created is inseparable from Ding Yang's assistance, she can only accompany Ding Yang to leave her hometown and go to Hengdian, a film and television city thousands of miles away.

In seventeen years, leaving her hometown for the first time, Zhou Qingni was not afraid at all, but had a feeling of excitement and excitement, humming songs along the way, looking at the scenery along the way, and the joy seemed to overflow.

The last trip home for the Chinese New Year was very boring and boring along the way, but this time it was different, with a youthful soft girl to accompany her, joking, teasing the girl...... Before you know it, you have already arrived in the territory of Zhejiang Province.

Zhou Qingni looked at the traffic on the high-rise streets, the bustling crowd like a tide, the antique streets flashing with various billboards, the lights were in a trance, real and illusory, showing the prosperity and hustle and bustle of the modern metropolis, and couldn't help asking:

"Brother, what is this place?"

Since Zhou Qingni was accepted as a righteous daughter by Zou Yuelian, Zhou Qingni changed her mind and called Ding Yang "brother" or "brother" like Ding Shuyi.

"Hangzhou! There is heaven above, and Suzhou and Hangzhou below. Isn't it lively? You see there's no over there, that's the famous West Lake! ”

"West Lake, ah......" Zhou Qingni showed a yearning look......

Ding Yang laughed dumbly, feeling that he couldn't always speculate on the minds of his peers with his own mentality, after he arrived in Hengdian, he was indeed not like those who went out for the first time, running around and playing around, that was because he had visited these scenic spots and tourist attractions several times in his previous life, and there was no freshness for a long time.

But a country girl like Zhou Qingni, who is going out for the first time, must be interested in those famous tourist destinations, such as West Lake, Leifeng Pagoda, Yellow Mountain, and Longmen Grottoes...... I have been admiring it for a long time, and I am happy to yearn for it, and I definitely want to see it if I have the opportunity.

Ding Yang said gently: "What? Want to check it out? ”

Zhou Qingni struggled for a moment, but still shook her head sensibly, "No need, my brother has something to do in Hengdian, not to visit the mountains and rivers, or ...... Let's talk about it next time! ”

Ding Yang laughed, "It's okay, isn't it only fourteen today?" Our crew on the sixteenth day of the first month officially started, from here to Hengdian, it takes an hour or two to arrive, we will stay here for one night today, and we will leave tomorrow morning. ”

Zhou Qingni was a little twisted: "This ...... It's true...... Is it convenient? ”

"What's inconvenient about that, come, take the beauty on the West Lake, that's my dream all along!"

"Brother~" Zhou Qingni and the other cheeks burned red, his eyebrows appeared lighter, he lowered his eyelids, and his long eyelashes were moving slightly.

……

The first state in the southeast, West Lake has been beautiful since ancient times.

Near the embankment and pavilion, draw the boat pavilion, and the visitors sing and blow.

Ten miles of lotus, three autumn laurels, four mountains are clear.

So that a hundred years of Nandu, a moment of heroism, are forgotten, life aspirations.

The West Lake has been the soul of Hangzhou since ancient times, and there are many poems praising the West Lake.

Su Dongpo, a great writer in the Song Dynasty, once wrote: "There are 36 West Lakes in the world, and the best one is Hangzhou." West Lake, she has three clouds and mountains, a water hugging the city of mountains and water, she "want to compare the West Lake to the West, heavy makeup is always appropriate" natural scenery of the world's sentient beings.

The beautiful scenery of the West Lake is not only unique to spring, but also the lotus flowers that are blue in summer, the three pools soaked in moonlight in the autumn night, and the red plum that is sparse and slanted after the snow in winter.

Surrounded by green shade along the lake area, the mountains are verdant, the smoke willows of the painted bridge, the cloud tree cage yarn, between the mountains, the forest and spring are beautiful, and the stream is deep and secluded.

West Lake is located in the west of Hangzhou City, it is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and the water surface area is about 6.39 square kilometers.

The lake surface is separated by Gushan, Bai Dike, Su Di and Yanggong Dike, according to the size of the area, there are five water surfaces such as Waixi Lake, Xili Lake, Beili Lake, Xiaonan Lake and Yue Lake, Su Causeway and Bai Causeway cross the lake, Xiaoyingzhou, Huxin Pavilion and Ruan Gongdun three artificial small islands stand in the center of Waixi Lake, Leifeng Pagoda of Xizhao Mountain and Baochu Pagoda of Baobao Mountain reflect each other across the lake, thus forming the basic pattern of "one mountain, two towers, three islands, three embankments and five lakes".

In fact, May and June are the most suitable for boating on the West Lake, the season for travel and play, probably because of the cold weather, there are not too many tourists in the West Lake today.

Ding Yang and Zhou Qingni rented a pleasure boat, more than 20 meters long, about 3 meters high, carved dragons and phoenixes, very gorgeous, the captain is an old man about 50 years old, with white temples, but it looks tough. He was also going to wait for five or six people to sail again, Ding Yang said directly:

"Don't wait, I have this boat, how much does it cost?"

The captain showed a mouthful of black teeth: "Well, there are few people now, even if you have four hundred yuan." ”

Ding Yang knew that the price was not too high, and the price would have to be at least tripled during the tourist season, so he said, "Okay, let's sail!" ”

In the West Lake, you must have to do a ferryboat, just like the "Legend of the White Snake" said: ten years of repairing the same boat, only by taking a boat can you really walk into the West Lake, you can see the three pools of the West Lake, feel the smoke and waves of the West Lake......

The water of West Lake is usually emerald green. As the sun sets, you want to take a look at the reflection from the lake, and a sparkling golden wave appears on the surface of the lake.

West Lake is not new to Ding Yang, Hengdian is not far from West Lake, only a few hours by car, I have been here in my previous life, and I have accompanied my friends...... I have played it several times, and I know these attractions and backgrounds well, and I will introduce Zhou Qingni along the way:

"This is the Su Causeway, it was named this by the descendants in order to commemorate the exploits of Su Dongpo in governing the West Lake, and the 'Suti Spring Dawn' was listed as the first of the ten views of the West Lake......"

"This is Bai Dike, Bai Juyi knows, right? ……”

"This is the broken bridge, the bridge where the legendary White Lady and Xu Xian meet......"

"This is the famous 'Leifeng Pagoda' that suppressed the White Lady......"

Zhou Qingni asked curiously: "Is there a white lady at the bottom of the tower?" ”

Ding Yang laughed, "Who knows? It's a pity that it's too late now, the tower has been closed, and I won't let you visit today, so I'll take you in next time. ”

"Look, this is the Three Pools Moon." Ding Yang took out a one-yuan note and showed it to Zhou Qingni:

"See, the pattern on the back is framed here-the moon in the three pools."

Zhou Qingni took it and looked at it, "Really! It's amazing! ”

……

With the cruise, Zhou Qingni accompanied Ding Yang to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the West Lake, Zhou Qingni smiled very brightly, and looked at Ding Yang with a look of adoration:

"Brother, you're so amazing! You know so many attractions, backgrounds, stories and legends, better than a professional tour guide. ”

Ding Yang smiled and didn't speak, but he was thinking in his heart: Actually, I worked as a tour guide here in West Lake for a few months in my previous life, will I tell you?
