Chapter 42: The Town (2)
On Saturday, Gu Youren drove alone and went to the small town of Wuli.
Wuli Town is all the dwellings of the Ming and Qing dynasties, and is a comprehensive tourist area integrating ancient building protection, film and television shooting, tourism and art exhibition, which is divided into two major scenic systems: "Peach Blossom Spring" and "Qinhuai River". I think of Ding Rose's sentence "I'm waiting for you where the pink flowers are blooming!" Gu Youren resolutely chose the direction of Peach Blossom Spring.
The buildings of Taohuayuan are all the ancient residential architectural styles of the Ming and Qing dynasties in the south of the Yangtze River, with pink walls and tiles, brick and stone wood carvings, dougong piano workshops, theater ancestral halls, mansion houses, and Tunxi Old Street...... It is a folk picture scroll of thousand-year-old history and culture.
Standing on the paved road, Gu Youren made a difficulty, did he really want to find a place with peach flowers one by one? He remembered the scene a few years ago when he drove that used car from Toronto to Queen's University to find Dandan. He smiled and decided to look for it one by one, what was the hurry? It doesn't matter if you find it earlier or later, and it doesn't matter if you can find it or not, but the feeling of looking for it is rare to have it again.
He was suddenly very willing to walk around like this, walk around at will, it was good to find anything, and it didn't matter if he couldn't find it. He saw white flowers, yellow flowers, red flowers, and purple flowers that he couldn't name, but he didn't see peach. He was amazed that pink flowers were not uncommon, but today they were not so easy to find.
He walked slowly, the scent wafting in front of him. Walking around a corner, under an old-fashioned wall door, I suddenly caught a glimpse of peach. If you look closely, the heart-shaped petals are delicate and beautiful, and in the center is a cluster of long golden stamens, swaying in the breeze. He smiled softly and knocked on the black wooden door.
Push open the hidden gate and enter the courtyard, which is full of the same flowers. Looking up, at the window on the second floor, Ding Qiang Rose was smiling and waving at him.
"You're good at finding a place." Gu Youren raised his head and said.
"Of course, it's beautiful, isn't it?" The beautiful face of the cine rose is comparable to those pink flowers.
She rushed down from the stairs, ran to Gu Youren and braked sharply, then stopped and looked at him and smiled.
Gu Youren also looked back at her and asked with a smile: "What kind of flower is this?" ”
"Briar. Beautiful, right? Incense, right? Ding Qiang's phoenix eyes were shining.
"Yes. But where are you going to treat me to tea? This can't be that weird place, right? Gu Youren looked around and said.
"Of course! No. Ding Rose laughed. It's a beautiful place, and I'll take you to a weird place. But did you go to the strange place first? Or do you drink tea first? ”
"Let's go to the strange place first." Gu Youren said.
Ding Qiangrose took Gu Youren to turn east and west and walked a long way, and when Gu Youren felt lost, a slope with no one suddenly appeared in front of him.
"This is it!" Ding Qiang Rose said.
Gu Youren didn't see anything strange, so he asked, "What's strange?" ”
Ding Qiang Rose asked proudly, "What is the next sentence for people to go to a high place?" ”
"The water flows down." Gu Youren replied.
"What if the water doesn't go down?" Ding Rose asked playfully.
"How is that possible!" Gu Youren felt that this was simply unreasonable.
"Then you're good to go!"
Ding Qiangrose said, shook the mineral water bottle in his hand at Gu Youren, and then ran a few steps up the slope. After stopping in the middle of the middle, she turned around, opened the cap of the bottle, and poured water down the slope, and a miraculous scene happened, the water did not flow down the slope, but up the slope. Gu Youren was dumbfounded.
"What's going on? What did you do? Gu Youren was very surprised.
Ding Qiang Rose stood on the slope, laughed proudly, and smiled back and forth.
Gu Youren also ran uphill, took the water bottle from her hand, and experimented with it himself, which was the same result. Ding Rose picked up a few rocks and threw one down the slope, only to roll the stone up the slope again. She handed a stone in her hand to Gu Youren and asked him to throw it away. Gu Youren threw one piece after another with curiosity, threw all the stones in his hand and picked them up.
"It's weird! Are we entering a strange space? Does gravitational fail? Gu Youren said.
"Let me tell you, this is a strange slope, and there are several places in our country. Whether it is the effect of the magnetic field, or the gravitational displacement, parallax illusion, or the four-dimensional staggering, no one can tell, there are different opinions, and there is no conclusion. This section of the slope is newly discovered, and it has not yet been publicized to the public, so I heard about it by chance. Fun, right? Strange, right? "Ding Rose was like a child, very proud.
"Strange." Gu Youren looked at Ding Qiangrose, who was standing a little taller than him, and suddenly felt that he was also younger.
