Since defeating the Twelve Docks, the Dragon Wind Dart Game has been quiet again. www.biquge.info In order to prevent the retaliation of the Twelve Docks, Mei Jianxue left the Seven Swords of the Tianshan Mountains in Luoyang and returned to the Tianshan Mountains alone.

The most famous in Luoyang is the Eight Views of Luoyang

1. Longmen Mountain. Here the two mountains are sandwiched, the shape is like a door, and Yishui flows through it, like a long dragon passing through the door. Bai Juyi once said that "the victory of the mountains and rivers in the western suburbs of Luoyang, the first of Longmen", so "Longmen Mountain" was known as the first of the eight major scenery of Luoyang very early.

2. The bell of the Horse Temple is another scene in the eight major scenes of Luoyang. Because Buddhism is extremely prosperous, the temple hall is majestic, there are more than 1,000 monks, and the monks go to the temple on time every morning and evening to chant sutras. Whenever the moon is white and the wind is clear, when the morning dawn is first dewed, the hall hits the chime and hits the bell to chant the Buddha, the bell is melodious and fluttering, it is heard for several miles from afar, and it makes people feel refreshed and happy to listen to it. There is a big iron bell in the temple, weighing about 5,000 catties, and the bell is particularly loud. It is rumored that this bell is consistent with the rhythm of a bell on the bell tower on Luoyang East Street and can resonate. People often hear the bell of the White Horse Temple at the same time, and then the bell on the bell tower of Luoyang City also rings, and the folk spread the good story of "the east hits the bell and the west rings, and the west hits the bell and the east rings". Therefore, the bell of the White Horse Temple is known as one of the eight major views of Luoyang.

3. Jingu Chunqing is the villa of Shichong in the Western Jin Dynasty. Shi Chong is a famous tycoon. Because he competed with the aristocratic landlord Wang Kai for wealth, he built the Golden Valley Villa, which is called the "Golden Valley Garden". The garden builds a platform and digs a pond with the terrain. The clear stream in the park lingers, and the sound of water is murmuring. Shi Chong because of the mountain-shaped water potential, build a garden and build a museum, dig a lake and open a pond, within dozens of miles around, the pavilions and pavilions of the building, the height is scattered, the water of the golden valley lingers through the flow, the birds sing in the quiet village, the fish leaps over the lotus pond. Shi Chong used silk needles, copper and iron utensils to send people to the South China Sea Islands to exchange for pearls, agate, amber, rhino horn, ivory and other valuables, and decorated the houses in the garden with gold and splendor, like a palace. The scenery of Kanayaen has always been revered. Whenever the spring is in March, when the wind and the sun are warm, the peach blossoms are scorching, the willows are curling, the pavilions and pavilions are covered with brilliance, the butterflies are fluttering among the flowers, the birds are chirping, and the branches are talking. Therefore, people regard "Jingu Chunqing" as one of the eight major scenery of Luoyang.

It is like a long dragon winding across the north of Luoyang, hundreds of miles from east to west, with an altitude of about 250 meters, like a natural barrier in Luoyang. As the saying goes, "born in Suzhou and Hangzhou, buried in the north", the ancients regarded the majestic and deep soil of the north as a good place to sleep after death. Whenever the spring Qingming season and the autumn is crisp and crisp (the ninth day of the ninth month of the lunar calendar), groups of men and women have to go out and climb the heights to look far away. In particular, the Cuiyun Peak in the north of the city, the ancient trees in the Tang and Song dynasties, are green like clouds, and it is a resort for people to climb high and play. Whenever the sun sets, the twilight is boundless, ten thousand lanterns are on at the beginning, ten thousand households are curling with smoke, stand on the top of the peak and watch the tall city under the mountain, the majestic palace, the vast garden, the magnificent pavilion, it is very spectacular. This is the portrayal of one of the eight major views of Luoyang, "Evening View of Pishan Mountain".

Every time in the early hours of the morning, the moon is still hanging in the sky, and the travel on the Tianjin Bridge is bustling with cars and horses, no wonder the Tang Dynasty poet Liu Xiyi wrote that "the sound of horses turns outside the clouds, and the figures shake the green waves", which is really picturesque.

Wang Bo, Yang Jiong, Lu Zhaolin, and Luo Binwang, who are known as the four heroes of the early Tang Dynasty, have all wandered in Luobin and can't bear to leave.

7. Pilgrimage to Hiraizumi. In the south of Luoyang City, 30 miles, at the foot of the mountain west of Longmen, there is a Liangjiatun Village. Surrounded by mountains, covered by forests, springs gushing, and clear streams lingering, this is where the villa of Li Deyu, the prime minister of Emperor Wu of the Tang Dynasty, is located.
