The four of them were in Chaotian Palace, played for a while, left Chaotian Palace, followed the Shinto on the right, and continued to walk towards the front. The Shinto path became steeper and harder, and when the four of them climbed to the hundred-step ladder; Yue Haohan saw that there was a stone tablet erected next to the hundred-step ladder, Yue Haohan looked at the stone tablet, and said to Zheng Ziyan and the others: "You guys rest for a while, I'll see what is recorded on the stone tablet." As he spoke, Yue Haohan walked to the stone stele; I looked at it, and the stele was "Donation to the Divine Road Merit Monument".

The stone stele, both sides of the yin and yang are inscribed, describing the deeds of repairing this Shinto, and it also records a history of Wudang Mountain and a famous person. In the early days of the Republic of China, there was a very accomplished Taoist general named Xu Benshan in Wudang Mountain. He is the fifteenth generation of the Wudang Longmen faction and is determined to revitalize Wudang. The 43-year-old Taoist general at the time saw that the temple of Wudang Mountain was seriously damaged and the road collapsed and blocked, so he raised good words and repaired the Shinto. In April of the third year, He Long led the Red Third Army to fight and stationed in Wudang Mountain. Xu Benshan admired the prestige of the Red Army and He Long to fight local tyrants and save the poor, and personally led more than 50 disciples down the mountain to meet the Red Army, and took the initiative to vacate the house in the palace of Zixiao Palace as the headquarters of the Red Army, and vacated the West Daoist Courtyard as the rear hospital of the Red Army. At the same time, Taoist doctors who were proficient in medical skills were sent to treat the wounded and sick of the Red Army. He Longshen was moved by Xu Daozong and the Taoist people, selflessly helping the Red Army, and made a pair of Tibetan couplets with Xu Benshandao's number "Weiqiao", and gave it to Xu Daozong in his own book, and the couplet was: "The great man came to the east to be purple, and Brother Qiao went to the clouds in the west." Xu Benshan was later killed by bandits. Mr. Xu Dao loved Wudang Mountain and sacrificed his precious life for the people's revolutionary cause, which is the glory of Wudang Mountain and the glory of China's Taoist circles.

Carefully savoring the deeds of Xu Benshan, the head of the Taoist recorded on the stone tablet, Yue Haohan suddenly remembered what Luo Xianjie's grandfather had told him that Luo Xianjie was seriously injured that year, and he was stationed in Wudang with the Red Third Army; While recuperating in Wudang Mountain, a Taoist surnamed Xu taught him the Tai Chi method. Yue Haohan said in his heart: "Could it be that the Taoist chief surnamed Xu is the Xu Benshan mentioned on the stone tablet?" It's time to get to Jinding in a while, ask Li Yifu well; If it is really Xu Benshan, it seems that he still has such a relationship with Wudang Mountain. ”

Read carefully the inscription on the stele; Yue Haohancai, Zheng Ziyan, Yue Chunfang, and Yue Chunxia began to climb the hundred-step ladder; Three young girls, juvenile hearts; As he climbed, he counted the steps in his mouth; After climbing dozens of steps, the four of them held on to the railing by the side of the Shinto and stood there to rest; Looking down, Chaotian Palace was already far away at the feet of everyone; Looking up, the 100-step ladder is very steep.

The four of them rested for a while and continued to climb upward; Because Yue Haohan often exercised and played Tai Chi, he climbed the hundred-step ladder and didn't feel how laborious; Zheng Ziyan and Yue Chunfang, Yue Chunxia, the three of them are different; Holding on to the railing on the side of the Shinto, climbing, the three of them were ruddy, with beads of sweat on their foreheads, panting heavily, and they took two steps and stopped; The sound of counting the stairs in his mouth was intermittent, not as loud as he had counted when he started the climb.

Yue Haohan was in front, taking the lead in climbing the hundred-step ladder, looking ahead, there was a tall gate of heaven not far away; Yue Haohan turned back to the three Zheng Ziyan who were about to board and said, "Come up, you will have arrived at the gate of the first day." Hearing Yue Haohan say this, the three of them stood and looked up for a while; quickened his pace, and soon arrived in front of Yue Haohan; Zheng Ziyan stepped forward tiredly and leaned on Yue Haohan's shoulder, panting; From Zheng Ziyan's body, a faint fragrance of roses wafted over, which made Yue Haohan's heart tremble; Glancing at Zheng Ziyan, Yue Haohan pointed ahead and said, "Look, that's the Gate of the Day." ”

A few people raised their eyes to look, only to see the door of the day, the vermilion wall green tile, the eaves color wall, the pedestal carving, hidden in the pine clouds, standing on the top of the natural danger, Qi Wei magnificent, magnificent.

Enter the day gate, there are the ruins of Wenchang Temple inside. There is a stone arch bridge next to the ancestral hall, called the Xingxing Bridge, also known as the Huixian Bridge, built for the Ming Dynasty, the bridge is about thirteen or fourteen meters long, four or five meters wide, the square stone masonry, decorated with the stone carving pillar stone railing. The four of them sat and rested by the Huixian Bridge; Yue Haohan also took the backpack that Yue Chunfang had been carrying, put it on his shoulder, and then got up and continued to march towards the Ertian Gate.

When Yue Haohan and the four of them went straight up the stone steps of the Shinto Road and began to climb the ladder known as three hundred and sixty steps; Zheng Ziyan weakly pulled Yue Haohan's arm, leaned on Yue Haohan, and said, "Brother Haohan, are you pulling me?" I just can't go. "Yue Chunfang and Yue Chunxia, the two sisters, seem to have a better physique than Zheng Ziyan, but they are blushing and panting; It's not like Zheng Ziyan, who feels unsteady on his feet.

Seeing Zheng Ziyan pulling Yue Haohan, Yue Haohan felt a little embarrassed; Yue Chunxia next to her looked at Yue Haohan mischievously, and said, "Brother, you have a good physique, let me carry a backpack, and you can pull my Sister Ziyan to climb the ladder; Mom explained to you before leaving, and asked you to take care of the three of us; In case Sister Chunfang and I can't walk for a while, you will carry Sister Ziyan on your back; Then he pulled the two of us up one by one; What do you think? After speaking, Yue Chunxia took the backpack that Yue Haohan was carrying on his shoulder, and after putting it on his back, he and Yue Chunfang secretly laughed beside her.

Yue Haohan only took Zheng Ziyan's hand and began to go up, climbing the ladder of three hundred and sixty steps, and when he climbed the ladder, the Second Heavenly Gate was in front of him. Entering the Ertianmen, looking at it, the mountain peaks are more strange, the scenery is better, the white clouds are fluttering, and you can reach out; A breeze blew, making a few people who were sweating feel refreshed. Ertianmen, there is a huge stone in the door, the crack on the stone is like a sword trace, it is said that when the real martial arts try the sword, the traces of the split, the descendants call this stone the test sword stone.

The four of them sat down to rest next to the Ertianmen, Zheng Ziyan leaned against Yue Haohan and asked, "Brother Haohan, how far is it?" Yue Haohan said: "Not far in front is the three-day gate, after the three-day gate, and then to the pilgrimage gate; When you reach the pilgrimage gate, you can see the golden dome; Hold on, and soon you'll have a 'view of the mountains'. ”

The four of them rested for a while and regained their strength slightly; Yue Haohan took Zheng Ziyan's hand, and the four of them began to walk towards the Three Days Gate. The distance from the second heavenly gate to the third heavenly gate is not long, but the Shinto path is extremely steep and dangerous, and the heels of the person walking in front seem to step on the head of the person behind.

The four of them climbed the gate for three days with difficulty, and a refreshing cool breeze blew on their faces, which made people feel more energetic; Looking at the surrounding mountains, I felt relaxed and happy, the white clouds floated in the valley, and several people suddenly felt that the sky was low and the earth was deep, and the whole person seemed to have entered the 'clear and void fairyland'; stood at the three-day gate and enjoyed a different scenery here; the four of them began to set off again.

Yue Haohan took Zheng Ziyan's hand, Yue Chunfang and Yue Chunxia supported each other; After a difficult trek, we finally reached the pilgrimage gate; Standing at the pilgrimage gate, you can faintly see the golden dome beckoning to everyone not far away.

The pilgrimage gate, built on the site of the Yuan Dynasty for the tenth year of Yongle in the Ming Dynasty, is magnificent, and stands between thousands of stone steps with a decorative railing. The setting of the gate of heaven is quite ingenious, and it can be said that it is a stroke of genius. It skillfully uses the environmental space and religious principles to create an environment that makes people's psychology change dramatically, which is the concrete embodiment of the wisdom of the ancients. The tallness and stability of the Gate of Heaven renders the sacred solemnity of the heavenly realm, so that the worshippers of the Golden Dome step by step increase the solemn feelings of admiration in their hearts.

A few people were at the pilgrimage gate, looking at the golden dome not far away, their expressions were shocked, and their energy felt doubled; He quickened his pace, and after a difficult trek, he finally arrived at the Nantianmen on the golden top of Wudang Mountain. Legend has it that the South Heavenly Gate is the first major gate to enter the Heavenly Palace, and it is also the gate of the Emperor's Palace, which is solemn and sacred.

The South Heavenly Gate of the Golden Dome of Wudang Mountain is built with three holes, which are the God Gate, the Ghost Gate, and the Human Gate. The ghost gate is a symbolic gate, which has been closed since the day it was built; This is a place where gods are worshipped, and ghosts are not allowed to haunt them; The gate of God is closed all year round, and can only be opened when the royal relatives come; The human gate is open all year round for people who worship the Emperor Zhenwu. The city wall connecting the Nantianmen Gate is the Purple Gold City with a golden roof.

Yue Haohan stood at the gate of the South Gate of the Golden Peak, raised his eyes and looked at the Golden Peak on the top of the Tianzhu Peak, only to see the Tianzhu Peak, the peak stood steeply in the sky, like a treasure pillar standing majestically among the peaks, no wonder there was the name of "a pillar of optimus".

Just when Yue Haohan was looking up at the Golden Peak Heavenly Pillar Peak, Qingfeng Dao Leader Li Yifu was followed by a Taoist and walked out of the South Heavenly Gate; Seeing Yue Haohan, who was standing outside the Nantian Gate and looking up at Tianzhu Peak, Li Yifu stopped, looked at Yue Haohan and the four of them, and shouted: "Xiao Yue, Yue Haohan!" ”

Yue Haohan, who was looking up at Tianzhu Peak, heard the shout, and looked towards Li Yifu; Seeing that it was Li Yifu, Yue Haohan showed joy, stepped forward with a smile, and said, "Li Dao is good!" I was about to ask where you were. ”

Li Yifu said with a smile: "I'll just say that we are fate, this time, we have to have a good chat together; My senior brother, your grandfather Luo, let me show you your Tai Chi method again. ”

After speaking, Li Yifu asked: "You haven't had lunch yet, let's go, go down with me to eat." Hearing that he was going to have lunch, Zheng Ziyan opened his mouth wide and said, "I won't eat it, and I have to go down the mountain to eat?" ”

Li Yifu glanced at Zheng Ziyan, Yue Chunfang, and Yue Chunxia, and said with a smile: "A few girls, don't be afraid, not far away, just below this Nantian Gate, there is a guest house of our Taoism." As he spoke, he pointed to a building on a platform below. Zheng Ziyan smiled and said, "It's almost the same to eat in this place." ”

Li Yifu turned around and explained to the person behind him, asking the person to arrange the meal first; Then, he took Yue Haohan and his party and walked towards the Taoist guest house under the Nantian Gate.

Yue Haohan and the four followed Li Yifu to the Taoist guest house in Taihe Palace below; Li Yifu arranged a few people to sit down in a small private room; Then he called the service staff to pour a cup of warm boiled water for each person, and after the water was poured, Zheng Ziyan grabbed the cup and drank it, and drank two glasses in a row, and then sat down.

After Li Yifu sat down, Yue Haohan introduced Zheng Ziyan and his two younger sisters to Li Yifu; After the introduction, Yue Haohan said: "Daochang Li, my three sisters and I want to watch the sunrise tomorrow morning, I don't know if we can stay here?" How much does it cost? ”

Li Yifu said with a smile: "You don't have to worry about this, you came here, let you spend money to stay, your Grandpa Luo wants to know, what will you think of me?" ”

Yue Haohan said: "Then it's a bit bad to trouble Daoist Li." Li Yifu said: "My own people, what is not troublesome?" I'll ask them to arrange a triple room with three girls; I'll arrange a standard room for you again, I don't have anything else to do at night, and we'll have a good chat together." After you have eaten later, you can rest for a while, and you can go to the top of the Golden Dome first. After coming down, we ate here in the evening. Tomorrow morning, after you watch the sunrise, we will go down the mountain together and go to Zixiao Palace. ”

Yue Haohan looked at Li Yifu embarrassedly, smiled, and said, "Okay, then I'll listen to Daoist Li's arrangement; I'm going to ask you to teach me Tai Chi. ”

chatting, after a while, the meal came up, the meal was elegant and refreshing, two meat and two vegetarian, plus a tomato egg soup. Seeing the food coming up, Li Yifu said: "You use it slowly, I have already eaten it; I'll be out there for some business, if you need anything, just tell the waiter, you're welcome. After saying that, Li Yifu went out to get busy.

Yue Haohan's four people, who had climbed the mountain for a long time, were really hungry; Pick up the rice bowl and eat it in a big gulp; The wind and clouds are whirling, and the dishes on the table are basically eaten clean, and the dishes and chopsticks are put down; Zheng Ziyan sighed: "Brother Haohan, I'm finally alive again!" The food here is so delicious. ”

Yue Haohan looked at Zheng Ziyan and smiled, and said, "I'm hungry, it's definitely delicious." Zheng Ziyan glanced at Yue Haohan and said, "Brother Haohan, I almost let you carry me on your back." Yue Chunxia put down the bowl and said mischievously: "Sister Ziyan, when you reach the top of the gold in a while, let my brother carry you; Anyway, my mother told him to take care of us. Yue Chunfang took a sip of tomato and egg soup and interjected: "Brother, aren't you practicing Tai Chi every day, it's good to carry the three of us on your back." ”

The three of them made Yue Haohan's jokes, Yue Haohan sat and didn't speak with a smile; After Yue Chunfang finally put down the dishes and chopsticks, a waiter came in, looked at Yue Haohan and the others, and said, "May I ask if you use it well, and when you use it, come with me to see the room." ”

The rooms are arranged on the second floor of the guest house, two rooms are next to each other, and the middle one is a triple room; The one outside was a double room, and after Yue Haohan entered the room, he saw that it was very clean and tidy; I put my backpack on the bed and went to the bathroom; After coming out, he went to the room of the three Zheng Ziyan next door, and when he entered, he found that the three of them put their backpacks on the stool and lay on the bed with their clothes like that; Yue Haohan said: "Three, it's not yet 3 o'clock, you guys rest, let's climb to the top of the gold at four o'clock, how about it?" "It's cool at four o'clock." After speaking, Yue Haohan returned to his room and lay down on the bed to rest.

A little after four o'clock, Yue Haohan got up, washed his face briefly, and went to the next door to call Zheng Ziyan and his two sisters; After the three of them packed up, they began to climb to the top of the gold. The main peak of Wudang Mountain, the golden peak on the top of Tianzhu Peak, is the essence and symbol of Wudang Mountain, and it is also the symbol of Wudang Taoism to the peak of its peak with the support of the Ming royal family.

After a difficult climb, the four reached the top of the gold; Yue Haohan stands in front of the Golden Palace, looking in all directions, the beautiful scenery of Wudang in eight hundred miles is in full view, the peaks rise and fall like the waves of the sea, rushing in the moment of stillness, the peaks arch and embrace, the landscape of worship in all directions magically renders the majesty of divine power and the supremacy of the imperial power of the Ming royal family. It's really 'going to be the top of the mountain, and you can see the mountains at a glance'.

Turning around and staring, after more than 570 years, the national treasure-level 'pure copper gilt golden palace' still stands. It is said that every year during the summer thunderstorm season, there will be a miracle of lightning striking the Golden Temple in Wudang Mountain. A loud sound of the sky cracking was deafening, and the thunder and lightning pierced the sky, like a sharp sword slashing through the Golden Palace. In an instant, the golden light is ten thousand ways, shooting directly into the sky, and its scenery is thrilling and magical. This is the 'Thunder and Fire Refining Palace', and it is also the reason why the Golden Temple is still shining golden after more than 570 years of thunder and lightning refining.

Zheng Ziyan, who was standing next to him, looked at the peaks that were trampled under his feet, and said: "It's spectacular!" It's so beautiful! He turned around and looked at the Golden Hall with reverence on his face, and said, "It's amazing! After speaking, he pulled Yue Chunfang, Yue Chunxia; The three of them went to the golden temple to bow down and pray.
