Chapter 65 Lake in the Clouds Steamed vegetables in bamboo tubes

Jiugongshan is located in Tongshan County, and there are no vehicles directly driving to Tongshan County in Linji County.

The two of them first took a car to the provincial bus station, then transferred to Tongshan County, and waited until they reached the foot of Jiugong Mountain, which took nearly four hours all the way.

This is the first time that the two of them have gone out together, although they took a long time to change cars, but the two did not feel tired or tired at all, on the contrary, there was an expression of excitement on Zhu Lu's face.

In the past, Zhu Lu could think that there was a day dedicated to traveling, and it was very good to be able to eat enough every day.

At the foot of the mountain, many people choose to take the car or cable car directly up the mountain. Zeng Rong chose to walk.

Zeng Rong came to Jiugong Mountain for a tour, in addition to pure tourism, there are also items that can find antiquities like the four ancestors of Zen Buddhism, such as the prayer beads, and can quickly strengthen his qi.

Entering the range of Jiugong Mountain, Zeng Rong was better, and Zhu Lu immediately felt a little cold.

Known as the second Kuanglu, Jiugong Mountain has been a summer resort since ancient times, and even in the hot summer, the temperature here will not exceed 30 degrees Celsius.

Fortunately, Zhu Lu was thoughtful and checked the information on the Internet in advance, and both of them prepared long-sleeved tops and light jackets.

Even if you put on a thin coat, in this scorching summer, you still can't feel a trace of heat in Jiugong Mountain.

In Zhu Lu's eyes, Zeng Rong was a little strange, even naughty, and when he saw a slightly older building or ruins or something, he immediately ran over and walked around a few times. Zhu Lu didn't know that Zeng Rong was using the sensations of his body to see if there were any items around him that contained a sense of qi.

The situation was beyond Zeng Rong's expectations, along the way, there were no items that could make him feel the qi at all!

During the Southern Song Dynasty, Zhang Daoqing, the ancestor of Jiugong Dao, was entrusted by the emperor at that time, and was ordered by the emperor to set up an altar in Jiugong Mountain, and built three palaces and twelve courtyards, making Jiugong Mountain one of the five famous mountains in the country. During his lifetime, he was named "Taiping Protector of the Country, True Shepherd and True Shepherd" by Emperor Ningzong. After his death, Emperor Ningzong personally approved the testament, ordered the palace to be enshrined in his body, and gave Zhang Daoqing's children four crosses, so it was called the imperial Taoist faction. After 648 years of enshrinement, his body was destroyed in the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom along with the palace.

In Zeng Rong's imagination, the Nine Palaces and Twelve Courtyards, such a large building complex, and the dojo has flourished for hundreds of years, no matter how deserted, you can always encounter one or two items containing qi engines, right?

Zeng Rong didn't expect that in today's society, the ancient antiquities had already been taken away by people's ideas, and it was Zeng Rong's turn to pick up the leaks?

Jiugong Mountain comes to escape the summer every year, and there are so many tourists, even if there are one or two special things, they will be taken away by some curious people.

Fortunately, the scenery along the way is very beautiful, Zhu Lu is holding the latest crazy mobile phone in her hand to take pictures, women have a natural desire to keep the beautiful scenery, and Zhu Lu is no exception.

There was a lot of food and drink in the bag on Zeng Rong's back, and along the way, there were also some shops. In this way, the two went all the way to the lake in the clouds.

When the lake in the clouds appeared in front of Zeng Rong's eyes, Zeng Rong's whole person felt very shocked.

High mountain flat lake!

On the mountain at an altitude of more than 1,000 meters, there is such a lake with an area of more than 100 acres! The surrounding peaks and buildings are reflected on the lake. There is also a peculiar scenery of high mountains out of Pinghu Lake, and Pinghu Lake reflects the peaks.

"It's so beautiful!" Zhu Lu's beautiful eyes also widened. Eyes full of shock.

At this time, suddenly there was a burst of white clouds, because this was already more than a thousand meters above sea level, and the white clouds floated directly on the surface of the lake in the clouds, and the whole lake was like a kiss in the sky!

Kissing Sky Lake is also one of the aliases of Yunzhong Lake.

"Rong, why don't we just stay here for the night?" Zhu Lu had a pleading look in her eyes.

"Absolutely!" Zeng Rong immediately agreed, such a beautiful scenery, Zeng Rong would linger even if he was a boy.

The two found a hotel by the lake, this hotel is the best among the many hotels by the lake, although the price is relatively expensive, but Zeng Rong feels that it is worth it!

The room was comfortable and quiet, with everything and everything, no worse than a hotel in the city.

The view from the window of the room is very good, and the whole lake view can be taken into the eyes, not only that, but also the mountain scenery not far away, as well as the mountain peaks in the distance.

Standing at the window of the room and looking out, there was a feeling of being very open-minded, coupled with the fact that the mountain air was very fresh, Zeng Rong immediately felt comfortable, and felt a little bit, the qi in his body was running a little faster than usual!

Although it was only a little bit, Zeng Rong knew that after a long time of tiredness, this little accumulation would become an absolute advantage!

It's no wonder that those Taoists and Buddhists like to live in the mountains with magnificent scenery! It turns out that this place is more conducive to cultivation! Zeng Rong immediately understood in his heart.

Of course, in addition to what Zeng Rong can think of, those masters who are hidden in the mountains and forests will also think that in the mountains, they can interact with people as little as possible, avoid more unnecessary socialization, less intrigue, and purify their hearts.

Putting the things down, Zeng Rong immediately felt a feeling of hunger in his stomach.

"Let's go eat." Seeing that the time was already more than four o'clock in the afternoon, Zeng Rong said. After walking for more than three hours on the mountain road, although there was food such as bread and fruit on the way to satisfy their hunger, because of the excessive physical exertion, the two of them already felt that they were going to eat.

There is a place to eat in the hall on the first floor of the hotel, and after taking a look at the menu, Zeng Rong ordered a few specially introduced local dishes and some mountain flavors, and then waited for the meal to be served.

There were a few dishes on the dinner table, dried beans, bracken, small dried fish or something, the raw materials of these dishes are from the mountains, streams, lakes, the original wild mountain vegetables, the taste is very strong, but for Zeng Rong and Zhu Lu who are tired of climbing the mountain road, it is undoubtedly a good appetizer!

Before the main dish was served, the appetite of the two had been opened.

The first dish is the most famous yellow stewed Jiugong stone chicken.

Jiugong Stone Chicken. It is made of stone chicken from the rock moss of Jiugong Mountain, the stone chicken is another name for frogs, the frogs here are very large, an adult frog has half a catty, so the Jiugong stone chicken is delicate and fat, far better than the taste of ordinary bullfrogs. The leg meat of Jiugongshan's specialty stone chicken, plus green onion and ginger, and the secret broth are simmered over low heat, and then thickened with pepper, sugar and other ingredients, the taste is delicious and tender to the extreme!

The two of them ate more than half of the large plate of yellow stewed Jiugong stone chicken, and a bowl of wild yellow sheep stewed radish came up again. Yellow sheep is originally a kind of extremely delicious meat in sheep, this wild yellow sheep, the unique taste of sheep is even stronger! And the radish absorbs the flavor of the mutton soup, which is also smooth and delicious.

Soon, the dried bamboo shoots and roasted meat, the steamed pork ribs in the bamboo tube, and the steamed several large crucian carp in the bamboo tube all came up. In particular, the steamed dishes in the bamboo tube have the fragrance of bamboo, and they taste full of fish, meat and bamboo, and there is no fat feeling at all.

The rice is a bamboo tube rice, and a bamboo tube is split, and the snow-white and crystal rice grains inside are like small pearls, which makes people hungry just by looking at it.
