We laughed and came to the Balcony Mountain Scenic Area.

The entrance of the scenic spot is on the west side of Bei'anhe Village, and there will be road signs at the end of walking along the west of Beiqing Road. Outside the gate of the scenic spot, the wooden archway of "Miaofeng Ancient Road" is particularly conspicuous. After buying tickets from here and entering the scenic spot, we saw the ancient incense road paved with stone slabs. The entire stone road stretches straight up the hill with a gentle slope. Because they have not been repaired, some of the stone slabs have become a little potholed and uneven due to the wear and tear of time.

We walked slowly along the ancient incense road.

The surroundings are gradually surrounded by greenery and mountains.

Along the way, hundreds of years of ancient trees and strange-shaped boulders make the whole incense road more beautiful.

"Do you know why this ancient incense path is called the Golden Order?" Ye Qian asked as she walked.

"Of course I know," I said seriously, "in order to please the Empress Dowager Cixi, the eunuchs Liu Chengyin and An Dehai repaired the Miaofeng Ancient Road, and built stones into steps, and each stone had to be paved with one or two silver. ”

"Ancient incense is ancient," Ye Qian smiled, "You see it's all paved with mountain stones, and many stones have made pedestrians step on it very smooth!" ”

"This ancient road is also quite well preserved," I said seriously, "walking on the bluestone-paved road left by the ancients, I seem to see pious pilgrims walking on the road, as if I heard the footsteps of pilgrims, and heard the shouts of the men in the porridge shed: 'Don't miss it when you pass by, let's have a bowl of mixed sauce noodles!'" ’”

"Pull it down!" Ye Qian smiled and said, "As soon as you say it, I'm hungry!" ”

We just walked and talked.

After half an hour, we came to Jinsen'an.

There is a golden mountain spring next to the Jinxian Temple.

Today's Jinshan Temple still has three halls, enter the mountain gate, the first thing that catches the eye of the two ancient ginkgo trees of the Jin Dynasty, male and female confrontation, mighty and magnificent, add brilliance to the ancient temple.

We will go right from the Golden Immortal Temple and enter the Ancient Incense Road.

The stone path steepens as the mountain rises.

We passed by the ruins of several tea sheds along the way and finally reached Myaoerwa. Here, there is a road to connect with the outside world, and it is also the only flat land under the main peak of Balcony Mountain. Looking back from here, the boundless North China Plain stretches into the distance at your feet; Villages, buildings, roads, and fields have become extraordinarily small; Looking ahead, you can see the vast mountains and winding mountain roads.

"Let's rest here!" I said to Ye Qian, "You don't feel sorry for yourself, I still feel sorry for my girlfriend!" ”

"Are you tired?" Ye Qian asked me thoughtfully.

"I'm not tired," I explained, "and you see a lot of backpackers who choose to take a break and grab a cold drink or spread out a napp on the side of the road for a picnic on the top of the mountains." From here, you can choose to return to the Bei'an River by the same road, or you can go down the mountain along the plank road to Jiangou Village. If you have enough physical strength, you can also continue along the winding road to continue the tour to Myomine Mountain. ”

"You see there are still watermelon sellers," Ye Qian said with a smile, "Do you want to eat watermelon?" ”

"Of course!" I can't wait to say that.

"Do you want to eat the sweetest watermelon?" Ye Qian asked again.

"That's even more thoughtful!" I laughed.

"Good!" Ye Qian said with a smile, "You sit here, I'll go over and buy you one!" ”

After a while.

Ye Qian came to me with a watermelon in her arms.

"Ask me again," Ye Qianyan smiled, "Do you want to eat the sweetest watermelon?" ”

"Yes!" I blurted out.

Ye Qian looked at me with a smile, and then casually threw the melon on the ground-

The melon is crumbled, revealing a red pulp!

"Why are you so careless?" I kindly asked Ye Qian.

"I did it on purpose," Ye Qian said seriously, "didn't you want the sweetest watermelon?" ”

"Isn't it sweet if it breaks?" I asked Ye Qian a little angrily.

"It's not necessarily sweet if it's broken," Ye Qian said with a smile, "but if you eat the melon that was broken by your lover, the melon will be sweet!" ”

"I understand," I suddenly realized, "you made me eat not only melons, but also Zen!" ”

"Yes," Ye Qian said seriously, "Zen Tao is all around you, and melon has taught you that you should learn to be tolerant!" Eating the melon I broke will not only cool your body, but also your mind! ”

"Yes," I said with a look of relief, "easy, easy, easy." With a broad mind and the ability to tolerate the aspects of your lover that seem to make you uncomfortable for a while, you are often more able to achieve your goals when you get things done. What's more, grace and generosity are originally the natural and habitual way of life of Zen people, which has a mind and is more wise. Because there is wisdom, there is a mind; It is also because of the mind that we are more wise. The melon is broken, and it can still be eaten when it comes back; The heart is going to be broken together, what's the point of eating that little melon? ”

"The demeanor of a Zen person can bend and stretch." Ye Qian smiled, "The lover broke the watermelon, picked it up and ate it!" ”

"Yes," I said, picking up a piece of watermelon and handing it to Ye Qian, "Don't be angry about the watermelon that your lover broke down!" Don't let external things change the peace of our inner world, but learn to be tolerant, so that you can make your heart spacious and open-minded! ”

"It's so sweet," Ye Qian said happily after taking a bite of the watermelon, "The melon is broken, and it saves cutting!" ”

"It's so sweet," I exclaimed while eating the watermelon that was broken by Ye Qian, "sweet in my mouth, sweet in my heart, sweet in my heels!" ”

Ye Qian smiled slightly.

After a while, Ye Qian took out a tissue and wiped her mouth and hands.

"Bring me that bag of chocolate peanuts!" Ye Qian commanded.

"Okay," I smiled and took out chocolate peanuts from my bag and asked Ye Qian, "Do you want to eat the crispest chocolate peanuts?" ”

"Don't want to eat! Don't want to eat! Ye Qian hurriedly said, "Don't throw me to the ground!" ”

"No!" I said solemnly, "You gave me the sweetest watermelon, and I'm going to let you eat the crispest chocolate peanuts!" ”

I said as I opened the package and poured two into the grass.

"What's this? This grass is so clean! Ye Qian said and picked up a rub and threw it into her mouth and said, "Why doesn't it taste right?" Ye Qian muttered in confusion.

"Does that taste right?" I laughed and said, "It's peanuts and beans that fall, and what you pick up is sheep dung and eggs!" ”
