Chapter 7: The Story Begins
Someone asked, "You often write off-topic essays when you were young, right?" I wrote six chapters, but I didn't get to the point. I said, "That's not true!" Look at those foreign masterpieces, what are written on the first dozens of pages, some write about the scenery, some introduce the customs, and how many of them go directly to the theme? Besides, I can't write about mountains and rivers when I write about online love, and after writing a few real stories, it's normal to write the substance. Besides, roommate love is also considered online love, which is related to the theme (although a little funny). A famous person said that the content of writing cannot be on par with the famous book, and the form should also be on par with the famous book, so you can understand it, right? When the man heard this, he began to question: "Who is this celebrity, why haven't I heard such a thing?" I replied, "Are you here to read the story or to raise the bar, I said that the story has begun, so you better look down carefully." ”
The story begins on the night of December 31, 1999. At the time, I always thought that something big was going to happen in the world 2,000 years ago (you should remember the 1999 world catastrophe), but until the last day of the twentieth century, nothing happened. I always thought that the 21st century was a distant thing, but the 21st century is just around the corner. Disappointed, I decided not to sleep at night and welcome the year 2000 online. At 11 p.m., I chatted with a girl and met her to welcome the millennium online.
The girl said that she was from Dalian, and I was overjoyed to see it, because the people of Northeast China have always been straightforward and fast-talking, and it feels very cool to chat with them. She asked me where I was from, and I casually replied that I was from Nanjing, and she believed it, and then asked me what good places to go in Nanjing. I said that there are many good places in Nanjing, like the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum, it is the mausoleum of Sun Yat-sen, the great revolutionary forerunner, there is a tall memorial arch at the entrance of the mausoleum, there are two big characters of "fraternity" written by Sun Yat-sen, from the archway to the sacrificial hall, there are nearly 400 stone steps, and the door of the sacrificial hall is engraved with the four words of "heaven and earth righteousness" written by Sun Yat-sen. There is a marble sitting statue of Sun Yat-sen in the hall, there is a circular tomb behind the hall, the center is a long tomb, the top is the lying statue of Sun Yat-sen, the body of Sun Yat-sen is below, people from ancient and modern China and foreign countries have to go to Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum to see when they go to Nanjing; There is also the Ming Filial Piety Mausoleum, which is the mausoleum of Zhu Yuanzhang, the Taizu of the Ming Dynasty, one of the largest imperial tombs in ancient China, 800 meters long Shinto stone carvings, surrounded by mythical beasts on both sides, quite spectacular; Nanjing Xuanwu Lake Park is also good, it is in Xuanwu Lake, is the largest urban park in the south of the Yangtze River; Nanjing Confucius Temple is the most lively and prosperous place in Nanjing, Confucius Temple is the temple of Confucius, there is a tribute courtyard, it is the place of the ancient township test, the Qinhuai River is also among them, all kinds of snacks are available, gadgets are also endless, it is a good place for tourists to play and relax, other good attractions and so on (I have been to Nanjing N times, I am too familiar with there). She said that Dalian itself is a garden, where the blue sky is really blue, where the white clouds are really white clouds, and where the air is really air (what a joke, are all the places fake?). But there is a true meaning in the words), clean, hygienic, to be a Dalian person is particularly proud. The girl also said that Dalian has Laohutan Ocean Park, Golden Pebble Beach, Forest Zoo, Xinghai Square, and the most famous and lively is a series of festivals in Dalian, such as the Spring Festival in January, the Cherry Blossom Festival in April, the Huaihuai Appreciation Party in May, the Beer Festival in July, the International Art Fair in August, the International Fashion Festival in September, the International Marathon in October, and the International Winter Swimming Festival in November. The most distinctive feature of Dalian is that there are many uphill and downhill slopes, and there are basically no bicycles. Actually, I'm going to write it very simply, and we "talked" for four or five hours on the subject (the introduction of the two cities). Naturally, we talked about something else, but I can't remember it now. It wasn't until six o'clock in the morning that we said goodbye to each other and walked away.
Excited, my mind suddenly burst into Li Shangyin's poem "Untitled":
Last night's stars and last night's wind, the west side of the painting building and the east of Guitang.
There are no colorful phoenix wings, and there is a little bit of wisdom in the heart.
The next seat sends the hook spring wine warm, and the Cao shoots the wax lamp red.
Yu listened to the drum and responded to the official, and went to the Malan platform to turn the tent.
