Chapter 440: Temple Snow Monkey

In the dense cherry blossom forest, there are quaint courtyards.

Netizens asked curiously: "Principal, what is this courtyard?" Is it also part of a hot spring inn? ”

Fang Ye smiled: "This is the Japanese macaque, that is, the exhibition area of the snow monkey!" ”

The appearance of the snow monkeys is similar to that of ordinary macaques, and to make a difference, the exhibition area must of course have some characteristics, designed to be the image of a dilapidated Buddhist temple.

If you get closer, you can see the walls of the courtyard, which are made of irregular gray stone blocks below and painted white on top.

But it's already darkened, and there's a sense of vicissitudes of antiquity. It seems to have experienced wind and rain, and no one has repaired it for a long time, and there are even vines of plants climbing up.

Come to the gate of the Buddhist temple.

The doorpost was a dark vermilion, and the temple door was pushed inside.

In fact, it is just pretending, there is a glass curtain wall embedded in the door frame.

Through the glass curtain wall, you can see the scenery inside.

Behind the gate is an open plaza, and behind it is a temple-like building, which looks a little dilapidated, but still exudes a solemn atmosphere.

It's also pretending, it's a temple on the surface, but it's actually a resting spot for tourists inside.

The brick and stone path leading from the gate to the temple behind it is overgrown with weeds and is very secluded, and it seems that no one has visited it for a long time.

The snow monkeys are located in this plaza, which is planted with cherry blossom trees, arrows, bamboo, and a pond with beautiful cherry blossom petals.

Shelves were erected on the walls of the surrounding courtyard, covered with a layer of metal mesh.

More than a dozen snow monkeys are active in the exhibition area.

Some of them pluck petals from cherry blossom trees and stuff them in their mouths. Some sat on the rocks by the pond and frolicked and played with their companions.

There is a snow monkey sitting on the edge of the eaves of the temple, and it looks like it has jumped over the branches of a cherry blossom tree.

Squatting on the eaves with his upper body straight, like a marmot, he looked curiously at the tourists outside.

Netizens looked at the appearance of the exhibition area, the state of the snow monkeys moving inside, and couldn't help but think of a scene!

Built in a secluded valley, the monks chant the Buddha every day.

However, over time, there may have been a war and chaos in the middle, and the temple gradually decayed and abandoned, and overgrown with weeds.

A group of snow monkeys came over, and the deserted temple was a good habitat for them, so they settled here!

"Wow, this area is very creative!"

"The temple, the cherry blossom trees, and the snow monkeys really look delicious!"

"Why are they called snow monkeys?"

Fang Ye explained: "The Japanese macaque, which lives between 31 and 41 degrees north latitude, is the northernmost primate in the world other than humans! When winter comes, they are covered in snow, hence the name Snow Monkey.

In order to survive in the harsh low temperature environment, they have also evolved the habit of soaking in hot springs in groups.

The water in the pond is now cool, and it can be replaced with a hot spring when the temperature is low in winter. ”

“666666!”

"I want to soak in the hot springs too!"

"Monkeys soaking in hot springs, it's so interesting."

Someone noticed that the stone lamppost at the entrance was a strangely shaped monkey statue on it, covering its eyes.

I couldn't help asking, "Hey, Principal, does this monkey stone sculpture have any meaning?" ”

Fang Ye smiled: "There are three lampposts like this, there are three in the exhibition area!"

You can see the other two at the left and right viewing spots, each with a different posture.

Have you ever heard of 'Don't look at incivility, don't listen to incivility, don't speak incivility, don't move incivility'?

This is a very famous sentence said by Confucius, which has been widely spread and influential in the world.

It is also reflected in the folk carving artworks, and the carving of the three apes has appeared.

Three apes, one hand to cover the eyes, one hand to cover the ears, one hand to cover the mouth, with three apes to live four don'ts.

This sentence is said to have been brought back to Japan by a monk who came to China to study in the 8th century, and there is a famous three-ape sculpture in Toshogu Palace, which means "do not look at people's shortcomings, do not speak of people's rights and wrongs, and do not listen to people's mistakes." ’

The reason why there are only three apes in the four is because the ancients often regarded three, five, six, eight, and nine as auspicious numbers in metaphors, and taboo to say 'four'.

The quiet and decent manners of the three apes, their dignified and elegant sitting appearance, posture and charm allude to the sentence 'do not move if they are incivil'. ”

"It's up again today!"

Poor Monk Dao Science: "Amazing, this exhibition area not only designs a temple scene, but also connects the snow monkey and the temple through the statue of the three apes!" ”

"Damn, surprised!"

"You don't say I haven't realized it yet!"

"Just two words, awesome!"

After everyone was reminded, the more they looked at the exhibition area, the more charming they felt!

The stone monkey lamppost next to the road at the entrance is simply a stroke of genius.

Many zoos are still cement cages to display animals, Linhai Zoo has made the exhibition area immersive, the plant environment is close to the state of animal life in the wild, not only beautiful, but also comfortable for animals to live.

Now there are even cultural attributes that combine animals and human backgrounds.

It's so high that I don't know where it goes.

"The most beautiful boy in Quantun" rewarded a rocket!

"ecnaegenV" rewarded a plane!

After watching the snow monkey exhibition area, I continued to sow the beautiful scenery of cherry blossoms for a while.

Fang Ye smiled: "Let's broadcast it here today!" ”

shouted to the foxes, "Little Joe, Sugar Packet, let's go back!" ”

Little Joe was lying in the cherry blossom petals, basking in the sun, and the sugar packet was very active, running around among the cherry blossom trees.

Seeing Fang Ye shouting to himself to go back, he glanced at him, but instead naughtily hid behind a tree!

"Eh, let's go!"

Fang Ye goes around to the back, and the sugar wrap goes around to the front.

Fang Ye went around to the front, and the sugar packet went around to the back!

A man and a fox walked around the tree in small steps, to big strides, and gradually chased and ran, faster and faster!

"The king is chasing me!"

"Top Winding Pillar!"

"Hahaha

Netizens laughed back and forth!

The blue carp covers its mouth and chuckles!

Cherry blossom viewing tourists also noticed the situation, laughed non-stop, and took out their mobile phones to take pictures.

Even Xiao Qiao, who was napping and basking in the sun on the grass on the other side, didn't know when he opened his eyes, and watched Fang Ye and Sugar Packet chase with relish.

Fang Ye couldn't catch up at all, he was a little panting when he ran, and his face was depressed, how could this guy run so fast!

I was so angry that it was useless to use affinity, but the sugar packet flicked its tail and ran faster and happier!

Then he sneered, and if he couldn't run, he could only use tricks.

Reverse Winding Column!

However, when Fang Ye changed direction, the sugar packet immediately changed direction.

He also turned back to him and shouted proudly.

It seems to say that this little trick is just the basic operation of our usual chase game!

"I prejudged yours!"

"Hahaha, the little fox is too smart!"

"Tempt me with something to eat!"

Fang Ye was about to cry, panting and wailing: "Whew, whew...... Sugar packets, can you not run! Go back, please eat apples! ”

Sugar Packet: How can apples be so fun?

After chasing around the tree for a long time, Fang Yeren was a little dizzy, squatting on the ground, so tired that he was panting!

Sugar Pack saw that he couldn't run, so he ran over and lay on the ground "huh" and called for coquettishness.

"You can really run......"

Fang Ye rua depressedly for a while, a piece of soft fur under the sugar-wrapped cheek: "Have you had a good time today?" ”

"Woohoo!"
