Chapter 308: The Country is Beautiful

It took two more dollars to get such a small lounge.

Grandma Liu is a thrifty person, and unlike Liu and Liu Qianli, they still have the ability to make money now, so they feel even more distressed about money, seeing that they have spent money like flowing water since they came to Luoyang, they are anxious in their eyes, but they really didn't expect to spend several times to see a peony flower, and they are so distressed that they can't do it.

In order to get back the money, Grandma Liu used the free meal of the White Horse Temple, and she said that she was not tired and wanted to enjoy the peony flowers.

But Grandma Liu's eyebrows are obviously tired that can't be hidden, and now it's noon when the sun is the strongest, how can you let Grandma Liu go out, Liu Chenxing is helpless and funny, originally wanted to go to the peony garden in the afternoon to join in the fun, it seems that this time I really have to participate in the competition, so I said the peony garden afternoon competition, focusing on describing that the winner of the competition can get a pot of valuable peony flowers.

Listening to what my granddaughter said, I thought that my granddaughter was the first female champion in the country, and my grandson was also an outstanding new science and technology scholar, and the brother and sister were indeed very sure to win the competition.

Thinking of the valuable peony flowers, which should be able to offset the expenses of her granddaughter and grandson, Grandma Liu listened to the persuasion, and let her daughter Liu open the screen in the wing room, and lay down on the straw mat behind the screen to rest for a while.

When people are old and tired, they are easy to snore, and Grandma Liu also said that she is not tired at all, and she has to hold on to enjoy the flowers, but as a result, she falls asleep at the end of the straw mat, and a slight snoring sound comes out.

Outside the simple bamboo screen, thinking of Grandma Liu's insistence just now, Liu Chenxing and Liu couldn't help but smile at each other, and then retreated to the window lightly.

Since Xiang Liu's grandmother patted her chest, she must work hard to win, and she can't cope with it.

There is a way to know oneself and know that the other side will win all battles, and only when you understand it clearly can you achieve success.

Liu Chenxing let Liu and Liu Qianli sit at the window of the incense room to rest for a while, and said that the White Horse Temple has a court background and there will be no danger, and politely declined Liu Qingshan and Liu Qinghai's kindness to go with them, so she went out alone to inquire in detail about the afternoon competition.

It was about twelve o'clock at noon, the sun was blazing, and I just stood under the sun for a while, and I felt sweaty, and I didn't know how hot it would be this summer after the Dragon Boat Festival for half a month.

The weather is hot, and it is climbing the mountain and worshipping the Buddha on incense, most of the pilgrims are tired, and they have only eaten lunch, and they can't help but feel a little sleepy, and everyone begins to rest in the incense room.

Originally, when I first came over, there was still a sound of talking, but at this time it was already quiet, not to mention meeting a little novice, not even a single figure.

Thinking that the peony garden was not far away, and there would be a gimmicky event held later, and there should be monks from the temple in the peony garden, Liu Chenxing walked over alone directly by talking to Xiao Shami about the location of the peony garden that he had asked about before.

A separate incense house gathering place is already in the depths of the temple, and the peony garden has to go along the ancient trees of the long forest.

The ancient trees are towering to the sky, the canopy is luxuriant and seems to be towering into the clouds, the white sunlight is blocked by the canopy like clouds, and only a little speed of light shines through the branches, casting a mottled light and shadow, and the shade of the trees is cool unconsciously.

There is less hustle and bustle of tourists, and the White Horse Temple gradually has the solemn and quiet of the ancient temple.

Walking among such tree-lined paths, people's hearts also calmed down, and the irritability that had just been born from the heat also dissipated.

Walking slowly in the woods, I came to a door frame with no outer wall and only a straw hut, and when I looked up, the word "Peony Garden" was written on it.

That's where the destination arrives.

The word "peony" has always been associated with wealth and prosperity, and people have always sought after prosperous things, but here it is diametrically opposed.

I don't know if it's a trick to attract people's attention, or if it really has another meaning, Liu Chenxing didn't comment, and only turned left and turned into this wide archway.

Behind the archway is still a long forest of ancient trees, but two tree-lined paths have been born, and the zigzag spiraling slope-like extension.

Just like the reason for refusing to be accompanied by his brother and cousin, whether this is an officially endorsed temple or not, Liu Chenxing chose a trail at random and went up the mountain.

However, after only walking about ten steps, I saw peonies planted in the forests on both sides of the path.

She doesn't know much about peony flowers, but she sees many peony flowers on both sides, and thinks that there are many varieties, yellow, green, flesh red, crimson, silver red and other peonies compete for beauty and bloom, the flowers are big and fragrant, but it is really worthy of the reputation of "national color and natural fragrance".

And because they grow on the side of the road at will, there is no gardener to trim their branches and leaves, which is very different from the impression of the rich flowers in the world that need to be carefully cared for.

Suddenly, Liu Chenxing understood why the archway of the peony garden was so simple, but it was particularly compatible with the peony flowers growing here.

All say that the water hibiscus is naturally carved.

The peony of the White Horse Temple, why not?

However, this also depends on the leylines of Luoyang, which are naturally suitable for the growth of peony flowers, so that these peony flowers that look wild and wild can bloom so brightly and colorfully.

Admire the peony flowers all the way, I haven't met anyone on the road, I have been walking for about a quarter of an hour since I went out, it is better to go to the dining hall to ask about the situation, but I have been walking for so long, there is no reason to return, Liu Chenxing only thinks that he has enjoyed the flowers in advance, and continues to walk forward.

Sure enough, after walking a hundred miles and a half ninety, I had a sense of regret, and insisted on walking for less than a hundred steps, and I came to a flat slope, about two acres, and there was a thatched pavilion in the middle, and seven or eight monks were arranging in front of the thatched pavilion, setting up a case, which should be to set up a venue for the afternoon competition.

The slope is considered to be halfway up the mountain, half of it is shaded, half of it is downhill, the sun shines down at noon, there is no cover, the monks are sweating profusely, seeing Liu Chenxing coming over at this time, I was surprised, and I saw that Liu Chenxing's appearance is a rare Shuli, and every move is full of a bookish fragrance, especially between the eyebrows and eyes, there is a clear spirit, and it is by no means an ordinary little lady.

They were arranged to arrange the written test site, they are not ordinary monks, at least they have a certain amount of knowledge, this time Liu Chenxing knew that she was not an ordinary reading lady, she was tired and hot at this time, so she didn't think much about it, and directly pointed to the tree-lined path that continued to go up, and said: "You are here to see this year's best, it's on it, if you have any questions, you go up and ask." ”

After speaking quickly in official words, he began to lay down pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the low desk, looking unwilling to be disturbed.

If so, Liu Chenxing could only swallow the words that came to his mouth, looked up at the way to continue up, and thought that there were treasures on it, so he just took a look at it first, so he didn't bother the other party, and went up along the path.
