Our Chinese tower is not our original, but learned from India, and then improved by the ancients of our country from generation to generation, before finally forming the style we see now

And why we like to build a tower by the water, it is because the water conservancy facilities in ancient times were not perfect, to often suffer from floods, and because of the underdeveloped science and technology in ancient times, a big flood thought that there may be monsters to blame, and building a tower can suppress them, of course, for people now, the purpose of building a tower is never so, but to climb high to enjoy the scenery, there is a saying in the preface of the Tengwang Pavilion, Luoxia and the lonely bird fly together, and the autumn water is a color of the sky. It's about the beautiful scenery

China's pagoda is divided into wooden tower and stone tower, the most famous wooden tower is Yingxian wooden tower, which has a history of nearly 1,000 years, although it has gone through wind and rain, but it still stands

And the most famous stone tower is, located in the four gates of the Licheng District of Jinan, Shandong, has a history of more than 1,400 years, the tower was originally used to store Buddhist scriptures and Buddha bone relics, and then with the passage of time, the use of the tower has gradually increased, in the military it is used as a lookout, in feng shui it plays a role in suppression, of course, in the scenic area it is a role of climbing high and looking far, this time I took a special tower for climbing high and looking far, saying that Lan Dong took a photo from Zhou Xueer in front of him

It is a tower with an upward shooting angle, from the bottom to the top, it shows that the tower is magnificent and abnormal, in fact, the number of floors of the tower is often different from what we see from the outside, for example, you look at it from the outside is seven floors, in fact, it may be nine floors, this is called the hidden building, as for why it was built like this, I don't know

Usually the tower generally has a dungeon, there are some treasures in the dungeon, especially in some temples, in the dungeon of those towers, there are generally treasures of the whole temple, and the above-ground building of the dungeon is also the part of the tower base, in fact, it is also very able to reflect the aesthetics of a tower, saying that Lan Dong took out a photo from Zhou Xue'er in front of him, the photo is taken on the base of the tower, the whole pedestal is in the style of a lotus, if you even connect the tower body to see, the tower is located in a blooming lotus, Lotus has a very lofty position in the three families of Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism, "Love Lotus Said" once said, out of the only love of the lotus out of the mud and not stained, clear ripples but not demons, straight through the outside, not vines and branches, fragrant far and clear, pavilion net planting, can be seen from a distance and can not be blasphemed...

In the bridge, the bridge has been a very important transportation hub since ancient times, and China has been a big country since ancient times, and the shape of the bridge in China is also diverse, but the most common is the stone bridge, and the most famous is the Zhaozhou Bridge, the bridge has been intact after several major earthquakes, and this bridge has also witnessed enough history throughout the ages, but because of the time relationship, I have not been able to see the style of the bridge, so I only photographed it in the park, saying that Lan Dong found one from the photo in front of Zhou Xueer

It is a very small stone arch bridge, the stone arch bridge has been overgrown with moss and weeds, under the bridge is a small river, it is more appropriate to say that it is a river, the stream is green, the angle of the blue winter is very good, he took the front of the stone arch bridge, there was no wind that day, so the stream was very calm. Calm like a mirror, the stone arch bridge is reflected in the water, the semicircle of the bridge body and the semicircle in the water, just form a complete circle, this at this time seems to be like a full moon, it is really intoxicating

Chinese make a thing, never only consider its practicality, but also the artistic conception of the environment in which it is located, the most typical is of course the garden of Suzhou, which can really be described as a step by step, of course, the stone arch bridge photographed on the day of the blue winter also fully reflects the artistic conception that the designer wanted to express that day

This bridge and a stream will be more beautiful when you come to shoot on a moonlit night, when the moon in the sky and the water are interesting, it is a rare and excellent scenery in the world

Listening to Lan Dong's eloquent talk, Old Darren couldn't help but applaud him, snapping, and from time to time he glanced at the photo and glanced at Lan Dong, and the look seemed to say, oh, it turns out that this photo is appreciated like this

After talking about the second group, in the third group, the third group Lan Dong photographed the academy, that is, the place Zhou Xueer said, the door design of this library is still very interesting, the door is designed to look like an open book, and people just pass through the pages, it seems that as long as they pass through this door, they will enter the ocean of knowledge, such a creative design, of course Lan Dong will not let go

Entering the inside is rows of bookshelves, in fact, there is nothing to photograph, such a layout, in fact, every library is similar, the difference is those details, and what Lan Dong wants to shoot is from which details to enlarge it

A small independent reading seat, there is no one sitting on the seat at this time, a pot of unknown flowers and plants is placed on the middle of the table, at this time the flowers and plants are long just right, the seat is in the position of the window, the sun shines on the seat through the window glass, the feeling of light makes Lan Dong feel more comfortable, of course, this scene was also recorded by Lan Dong

In another garden, some seats were also placed next to several bamboo trees, and there were people or no people on them. Lan Dong also recorded it

In the end, Lan Dong took a book from the bookshelf, returned to the unoccupied seat just now, sat down on it, and asked others to take a picture of him, this photo Lan Dong did not ask others to take it, what he wanted at this time was that innocence, and he found that it felt good to take it later

Books carry the wisdom of the predecessors, and we go to see it today, that is, to discover it and inherit it, I think this is the most beautiful place about it, so I shoot the academy, there is no grand scene, only the bits and pieces of time freeze, every time we turn a page of the book, it seems to be a dialogue with an ancient, a dialogue with the ancients, of course, it is to be quiet, only when it is quiet, you can hear what he said, so I also photographed the silence of the academy

The earliest books were engraved on bamboo slips and wooden coffins, but today we write it on paper, and now we use cameras to record it in our vision, different eras have different ways of recording, but the only thing that is the same is that we all have to have a pair of eyes willing to find beauty

This is the fourth time that Old Darren has applauded Lan Dong, and it is really good to say, and the photos are good, but if it weren't for your explanation, I think I would only be able to appreciate the beauty of one-tenth of it, but after your explanation, I can appreciate seven or eight out of ten, but this is enough, so I think the disciple I am looking for in China has already appeared

The words have been said on this, and the old Darren's intention to accept Lan Dong is already known to everyone, but to everyone's surprise, Lan Dong said, Uncle Darren, I remember that what you said at the beginning was something that can represent the beauty of China, but these things, I don't think it can represent all the beauty of China, these photos can only be said to represent my personal opinion, and they can't reach the height you said, I'm afraid...

What are you afraid of, are you afraid that after I accept you as an apprentice, I will not be able to take photos that can represent the beauty of China, which will ruin my reputation and China's reputation in the world

Yes, Lan Dong also admitted frankly, then I ask you, how old are you now, how many places have you been, how many different scenery you have seen, how do you know, as you go to more places, see more scenery, photography technology has advanced, the photos taken are not representative of China's beauty, so ah you Chinese still lack the spirit of adventure, do not try not to break through, how do you know that you will not do better than others

Well, after listening to Old Darren's words, Lan Dong nodded seriously and said, I know, and I know what I should do in the future

Then now..., Old Darren said again, Lan Dong immediately got up and bowed deeply to Old Darren, and said again, Teacher, Old Darren also smiled, and patted Lan Dong on the shoulder with one hand and said, good boy

You should have about a week before this semester ends, old Darren said, well, Lan Dongdao, if you don't have anything else to arrange during the summer vacation, I want to take you to my house to see, by the way, I'm teaching you some photography things, what do you think

This..., Lan Dong said a little late, of course, you don't have to reply to me right away, I will stay here until the end of your semester, so you have plenty of time to think about it, old Darren Dao

Okay, I don't think I can give you an answer without waiting for the end of the semester, Lan Dongdao, that's okay, I'm waiting for your good news, okay, let's stop here today, it's late at night, I should go back too, and said that old Darren stood up, obviously this person is also a thunderous person

Old Darren wants to leave, Lan Dong naturally wants to leave, at this time Li Laiyun asked Zhou Xueer to send the two of them, and as soon as he went out, Old Darren got into his car and drove out with one foot on the accelerator

Zhou Xue'er was here to send Lan Dong back, the two walked on the road and no one spoke first, Zhou Xue'er was thinking about when Lan Dong would leave, how long would it take for him to see him after he left, and Lan Dong was thinking about how to talk to Yu Yun and his mother about it

The two families were not far apart, and the two of them just cared about hurrying away, and the distance was even closer, just when they were about to arrive at the door of Lan Dong's house, Zhou Xueer said, Lan Dong, let's take a group photo, you took so many photos for me, but we didn't even have a group photo, which seems a bit unreasonable

Saying that, Zhou Xueer took out her mobile phone and dragged Lan Dong aside, standing under the snow-white street lamp, Zhou Xueer used her mobile phone to take a group photo of herself and Lan Dong, this photo was later kept in Zhou Xueer's mobile phone for many years, and it also accompanied her countless sleepless nights

Seeing Zhou Xue'er's figure disappear from sight, Li Laiyun asked Zhou Mingyuan on the side again, how do you feel, yes, if this kid is willing to work hard in the future, his future success should not be under Old Darren

Li Laiyun listened to Zhou Mingyuan's words and said, you are so optimistic about him, it's not that I am optimistic about her, it's our baby daughter's heart that has been stolen by others, don't look at this dead girl, where she looks at the photos seriously, she really heard everything that the kid said just now, and she didn't even find the photo in her hand

Poof, Li Laiyun finally couldn't hold back, and laughed, Zhou Mingyuan saw that his wife was still laughing there, and suddenly he didn't have a good breath, you are still laughing there, your daughter who has been raised for almost twenty years is about to be abducted, you are still laughing, hum, Zhou Mingyuan snorted coldly

What can I do if I don't laugh, am I still crying, my daughter always has to marry when she is older, it is better to marry someone who has the ability than to marry someone who has no ability, Li Laiyun said, and her hands climbed on one of Zhou Mingyuan's arms

Having said that, but I just don't feel happy in my heart, Zhou Mingyuan said, okay, okay, when you married me away back then, my dad also felt bad behind his back, and sometimes he would say after drinking too much, it was really cheap that kid married me such a good girl

Listening to Li Laiyun's words, the corners of Zhou Mingyuan's mouth rose unconsciously, your father really said this, Zhou Mingyuan asked a little unbelievingly, of course, the day you married me, I later heard my mother say, my father cried, I have never seen my father cry when I am so big, Li Laiyun said

Alas, after hearing Li Laiyun's words, Zhou Mingyuan, who was still smiling at the corner of his mouth, couldn't laugh anymore

After Zhou Xue'er came back, she couldn't sleep for a long time, so she sent another message to Lan Dong, will you miss me when you go abroad? Lan Dong didn't come back, maybe he was asleep, Zhou Xue'er thought to herself, while Zhou Xue'er looked at the ceiling in the middle of the night with her eyes open, and slowly fell asleep until she couldn't open her eyes

On the other side, Lan Dong didn't sleep, of course he also saw Zhou Xue'er's information, but he didn't know how to reply, Yu Yun was going to come back tomorrow, at this time, he only pretended to be the next person in his heart, and the other for now he could only choose to live up...
