Chapter 245: The Great Wall
Out of the school, Song Yuanchao drove the car and Lu Jun to the northwest.
This car is Luoyang's, some time ago Luoyang got a Lada, and I don't know where he got it, in this era, Lada can be regarded as a luxury car, and there are few in the entire Yanjing City.
Song Yuanchao specially asked Luo Yang to borrow the car because of something in the past few days, but the car was not placed on the campus, after all, it was too ostentatious to drive a car into the campus, so Song Yuanchao parked the car not far from the school.
Lu Jun never thought that Song Yuanchao actually had a car, sitting in an imported Lada car, Lu Jun was surprised and couldn't help but be very curious about the car under his buttocks, let alone such a good car, he had never even seen it in his life, you must know that now even the county officials in their hometown are just sitting in a jeep like 212.
Although there is no highway now, the national highway has long been there, and now there are few vehicles and there is no traffic jam, all the way to the northwest, the speed of the car is not slow.
Northwest from Jingshi University is the Ming Tombs, and further ahead is Yanqing.
There is a famous scenic spot in that direction, which is Badaling, but the place where Song Yuanchao took Lu Jun to go today is not Badaling, but not far from Badaling.
After the Ming Tombs, Song Yuanchao turned onto another path and continued to drive forward, stopped halfway to ask the local villagers for directions, and then continued to get in the car and walk along the path.
After continuing like this for another half an hour, the place became more and more remote, and Lu Jun didn't know where Song Yuanchao was going to take him, so he couldn't help asking.
"It's coming soon, don't worry, I won't sell you to someone in the ravine as a son." Song Yuanchao deliberately made a joke with Lu Jun, and Lu Jun was also happy, and couldn't help laughing, but after laughing just now, he seemed to think of his own thing again, and the smile on his face faded again.
Continue to move forward for a while, the road in front of him is getting more and more difficult to drive, and finally the road in front of him can't go to the car, Song Yuanchao parked the car to the side and beckoned Lu Jun to get off.
After getting out of the car and locking the car door, Song Yuanchao continued to walk forward with Lu Jun, at this time their feet were no longer a real road, just a small road that was stepped on.
All the way up, about ten minutes or so, just when Lu Jun couldn't help but ask where to go, Song Yuanchao, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped, turned around and greeted Lu Jun, who was left behind: "It's here!" ”
"What's coming? This is....... Lu Jun didn't stop and continued to walk, and asked suspiciously, but before he finished speaking, when he walked up to the high ground in front of him, he was suddenly shocked by the scenery in front of him.
In front of him is an incomparably spectacular scenery, looking at the mountains of the Great Wall, the nearby towering towers, the ancient road under the feet, the distant mountains are vast.
In the midst of such a majestic scenery, Lu Jun was so shocked that he was speechless for a while, and in the face of these, he suddenly felt that he was so insignificant and insignificant compared to what he saw.
This place was visited by the Song Dynasty in the previous life, and compared with the Badaling Scenic Area, this is just the "Wild Great Wall". Compared with the regular scenic spots, the Great Wall here can make people really feel its greatness and majesty, and feel the breathtaking historical atmosphere that comes to them.
"Let's go, let's go and see." Song Yuanchao pointed to the nearest guan building and said, Lu Jun made a few meaningless sounds in his throat, and followed Song Yuanchao in a bit of a daze.
This wild Great Wall looks generally intact from a distance, but when you get closer, you find that many places have been damaged or even collapsed. However, Song Yuanchao didn't take Lu Jun too far, just followed the path under his feet to the Guanlou in front. The local villagers in this area often come to herd sheep and chop firewood, and usually come to rest their feet after a break, so the safety is still no problem.
Guan Lou looks very close, but there is indeed some distance in the past, and it is not easy to go all the way up.
It took some time for the two to finally climb up to the gatehouse, which had been in tatters for thousands of years, and now only a rough outline remained.
When they went up to the Guanlou, the sun had already set in the west, standing on the Great Wall and looking into the distance, the setting sun dyed the mountains and the majestic Great Wall among the mountains into a piece of gold, a flock of birds swept by in the sky, and there was a faint sound of eagle crying in the distance......
Looking at the scenery in front of him, Lu Jun didn't know what to say for a while, at this moment, he deeply felt the greatness and majesty of all this.
"Do you know who built the Great Wall?" Song Yuanchao and Lu Jun stood side by side, looking into the distance, and suddenly asked.
"Isn't it Qin Shi Huang?" Lu Jun replied subconsciously.
"Yes and no." Song Yuanchao lit a cigarette, smoked a cigarette and said: "The original Great Wall was built by the countries of Yan, Zhao, Qi, and Qin during the Warring States Period. ”
"Qin Shi Huang swept away Liuhe, and after unifying the world, in order to resist the alien races in the north, the Great Wall of these countries was reconnected together, thus forming the prototype of the Great Wall in later generations."
"But the Great Wall we see now is no longer the Great Wall of Qin, after thousands of years of history, the Great Wall of Qin during the period of Qin Shi Huang has long been unrecognizable, and only in very few places can some relics remain. And now, the Great Wall under our feet is the Ming Great Wall of the Ming Dynasty, but even so, it has a history of hundreds of years....... ”
Speaking of this, Song Yuanchao sighed with emotion: "The Great Wall is still there today, and I don't see the ...... Qin Shi Huang back then." ”
"Yes, compared to the depth of history, life is only a short hundred years." On the side, Lu Jun, who was infected by all this, couldn't help but say.
Patting Lu Jun on the shoulder, Song Yuanchao said: "You are right, the construction of the Great Wall took several generations or even more than ten generations, and every stone brick was mined from the mountains by hand and then slowly built, but in the blink of an eye, can people still remember the people who built the Great Wall here?" ”
"When everyone mentions the Great Wall, they only think of Qin Shi Huang, or they think of Ming Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang and Chengzu Zhu Di, at best, there is a Meng Jiangnu who cried down the Great Wall, in addition to these, how many of the tens of millions of ordinary people who really built the Great Wall and left this great building left their names?"
"A hundred years of life pass in a blink of an eye, and a hundred years later it is just a handful of loess. But people are different from each other, some people live a mediocre life, even if they live a long life? And some people can leave a strong mark in history, compared to these leaders, ordinary people are just ordinary people. ”
Spitting out a cloud of smoke, Song Yuanchao smiled: "There is only one life, it is better to work hard than to spend it mediocrely, whether some things can be done is one thing, but whether to do it is another." Sixth, compared to these, what are you getting by what happened? Don't forget that you are a college student, and you are the pride of this era! It's the future of the country! ”
With a wave of his hand and pointing ahead, Song Yuanchao was full of pride: "Now, we are facing a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity and an era of change!" A manly man, when this life is worthwhile, when he rises to the challenge, can he not leave regrets. ”
At this time, Lu Jun understood why Song Yuanchao brought him here, and while being shocked by the scenery in front of him, the words that Song Yuanchao said also spoke deeply to his heart.
Oh, yes! Compared with the Great Wall in front of them, what is the difference between those historical figures who have passed away?
The spring breeze of reform and opening up has blown the earth, and the ivory tower is not a closed Eden, as a college student, Lu Jun can also feel these changes and their impact.
Recalling his original intention of working hard to get into the university, although Lu Jun had the idea of being admitted to the university to change himself, he also had the enthusiasm and ideals of a young man.
And now, the change in feelings made Lu Jun almost pull it out when he got into the horns, which made Lu Jun feel extremely guilty, thinking about this, Lu Jun didn't know how he changed his original intention, and how he was obsessed with feelings but forgot his original intention.
Don't forget the original intention, you have to always.
After all, people must have ideals, and ask themselves what their ideals are. Is it a hot kang head for wives and children? Or do you pursue the satisfaction of money like those 10,000 households? For a while, Lu Jun seemed to understand a little, and then seemed to be more confused.
Standing quietly, looking into the distance, Lu Jun was a little stupid for a while, his expression was constantly changing, frowning one moment, and the next moment with a blank .......
I don't know how long it took, Lu Jun's eyebrows gradually relaxed, and a smile appeared on his face, a trace of indifferent smile.
Song Yuanchao, who was on the side, noticed the change in his expression, but he didn't disturb his thoughts, just quietly accompanied him. And when Lu Jun's smile gradually became firm, Song Yuanchao's initial worry also turned into a smile.
"Third brother, thank you, thank you for bringing me."
"We're brothers, aren't we?" Song Yuanchao didn't ask Lu Jun if he had figured it out, because Lu Jun's expression had already given him the answer.
Lu Jun smiled and nodded vigorously, although Song Yuanchao did not enlighten him as targeted as others, he made him feel the meaning of life in this way, so as to completely walk out of the low mood of falling out of love. In this regard, Lu Jun is extremely grateful to Song Yuanchao, but there are some things that do not need to be said, and the great grace is not grateful, and Lu Jun will remember everything today.
It's not early, and when the sun sets completely, the way back will be difficult.
Since Lu Jun had already thought about it, Song Yuanchao accompanied Lu Jun to take another look at the sunset, and the two turned around and walked back.
When their car walked back along the way they came, the sky gradually darkened, and it was already evening when they returned to school, so they parked the car outside the school, Song Yuanchao and Lu Jun directly found a place outside the school to eat a bowl of noodles, and after eating noodles, An Bu walked back to the campus in the car, and when they were about to arrive at the dormitory, Sun Yaoliang didn't know where to come out.
"Third brother! Hey, why are you there, sixth? Seeing Lu Jun who came back with Song Yuanchao, Sun Yaoliang subconsciously asked.
"I happened to run into it on the way back, what? Looking for me? Song Yuanchao didn't mention half a word about Lu Jun, and replied casually.
Sun Yaoliang nodded but didn't speak, at this time Lu Jun smiled and said, "Let's talk, I'll go back to the dormitory first." After speaking, Lu Jun walked quickly towards the dormitory building, and soon the figure disappeared at the door of the building.
