(Some readers have asked what time this book is usually updated. Xiaolong will explain here. This book is usually updated at 7: 00 am and 7: 00 pm. Of course, there may be more updates, but the general principle is to keep it stable. By the way, I would like to ask for more tickets. Xiaolong's principle is that if you think it's good, you can give me more tickets. If you don't think it's good, you can criticize me in the comments section. Xiaolong is a shy person. I didn't update enough yesterday, so I was too embarrassed to ask for tickets.)
Zhao Yanzi looked relaxed as she skipped in the front. Today, she was wearing a short skirt made of cotton and denim, revealing her delicate and smooth calves. Her sleeveless shirt with a low neckline revealed her two fleshy arms and a patch of fair skin below her neck. It was a little sexy. For someone of her age, or perhaps for Hao Ren's relatively conservative views, it was a rather bold way of dressing.
The pair of Roman shoes with straps on her feet gave her a youthful liveliness. She bounced up and down like two fluttering butterflies.
It was great to have a designer mother. She didn't look ugly in a few random outfits; instead, she looked as pretty as a model.
In comparison, Hao Ren was dressed like a country bumpkin. He wore a shirt that hadn't been washed for three days, a pair of wrinkled jeans, and a pair of grey running shoes.
The only attractive thing about him was the pink backpack on his back, which belonged to Zhao Yanzi. It was weird for a guy to carry a pink backpack on his back.
Zhao Yanzi hurriedly ran in the front while Zhao Guang and Zhao Hongyu walked side by side with Hao Ren. Zhao Guang was dressed casually, but it was still traditional. Zhao Hongyu was dressed in a younger and sportier outfit, making it hard to tell that she was the mother of a middle school girl.
They walked up the stone stairs and finally arrived at the ticket office of the attraction.
Zhao Yanzi was already standing by the window, waiting impatiently for her parents to buy tickets. Her impatient look reminded Hao Ren of when he went out with his parents to play when he was young.
Zhao Guang walked over calmly and bought four tickets at once. Hao Ren felt a little guilty, but he didn't want to pretend to fight for the tickets at this time.
They passed through the mountain gate and walked up the stairs.
They had to admit that the scenery here was indeed beautiful. The greenery was lush, and the air was cool. A faint stream flowed down the mountain path, and the sound of water came from under their feet.
Zhao Yanzi breathed in the fresh air, looking so innocent that Hao Ren couldn't help but laugh.
It was so comfortable to return to nature after staying in the city for a long time.
Zhao Hongyu and Zhao Guang held each other's hands, enjoying the scenery around them as they walked slowly. Hao Ren didn't want to walk side by side with Zhao Yanzi, so he followed behind them leisurely. In fact, Zhao Yanzi didn't want to stay with Hao Ren either. Like an excited little animal, she ran far ahead of them to see what was going on.
"Zi! Slow! "Zhao Hongyu reminded her.
"Mom! There's a hole here! "Zhao Yanzi yelled in excitement.
Zhao Hongyu smiled and waved at Hao Ren. She walked over and said, "This cave was formed by the impact of underground water. The water in the mountain formed a secret passage in the mountain, and when the rock is weak, it will burst out. What we saw along the way are the tributaries of the mountain, and the real water flow is inside the mountain … "
"Then why is there no water?" Zhao Yanzi asked curiously.
"That's because the water flow varies according to the season. When the water flow is too strong, this side will overflow. Of course, it's also possible that the water flow changed its course. This used to be an exit, but because a small area of the mountain collapsed, this hole was blocked from the inside," Zhao Hongyu explained patiently.
Zhao Yanzi nodded, and her eyes lit up as if she had discovered a new continent. She pointed to the front and said, "There is a line of words there!"
"It's a blessed place. It is said that this was written by Du Fu in the Tang Dynasty. There used to be a Daoist temple on this piece of land, and it was called Celestial Cloud Temple … "Zhao Hongyu explained patiently as they walked.
Zhao Yanzi also calmed down. She blinked her big eyes and followed her mother closely, watching and listening at the same time.
Hao Ren didn't expect Zhao Hongyu to be so knowledgeable. Not only was she knowledgeable in design, but she was also able to talk about astronomy, geography, and culture.
Zhao Hongyu explained as they walked, and she could often diverge from one point to impart more knowledge to Zhao Yanzi. Her voice was gentle and pleasant, and even Hao Ren was fascinated by it. Unconsciously, he learned a lot of things that he didn't know before.
After walking for about two hours, they reached the halfway point of the mountain and found a small restaurant on the mountain to eat.
The table was placed under a pergola, and they could enjoy the beautiful scenery of GreenStone Mountain while eating the vegetables and rice.
Hao Ren had been bored in school for too long. Today, he was in a good mood when he saw the green mountains and clear waters with them.
"There is a Daoist temple on the top of this mountain called Tianyi Temple. It is said that Celestial Master Zhang used to cultivate here. The biggest hall in this Daoist temple is called the Ancestral Master Palace, and the eaves are all covered with gold leaf. There is also a pine tree in the Daoist temple that is 2,000 years old, and there is a stone tablet that was written by Celestial Master Zhang himself … "
Zhao Guang suddenly became interested as he ate, and he said to Zhao Yanzi.
"Is it really that fun?" Zhao Yanzi looked at her father expectantly. "Then, let's go up and have a look after eating!"
"It will take three hours to walk up, and there is no cable car here. Your mom and I don't want to go up. Your mom and I plan to walk up for a while more before we go down slowly and go back to the hotel to rest, "Zhao Guang said.
"Ah …" Zhao Yanzi looked disappointed.
"How about we let Hao Ren go up with you?" Zhao Hongyu suggested.
"I don't want him to go with me!" Zhao Yanzi gritted her teeth. "I'll go up alone!"
"No, we can't let you go up alone!" Zhao Hongyu rejected Zhao Yanzi's suggestion decisively.
Zhao Yanzi knew that she couldn't argue with her parents, so she lowered her head and didn't say anything.
After eating, they continued up the mountain. After walking for about half an hour, they visited an Laojun Cave with a long history. Then, Zhao Guang and Zhao Hongyu were ready to go down the mountain.
Zhao Yanzi didn't have enough. In fact, she wanted to go up and see what the Taoist temple at the top of the mountain looked like. However, she had no choice since her parents wanted to go down the mountain.
"How about we give you special permission to continue playing in the mountain today?" Zhao Hongyu said to Zhao Yanzi when she saw her pouting unhappily.
Zhao Yanzi's eyes lit up, and a smile appeared on her face.
"But you have to let Ren go with you. Otherwise, we will be worried," Zhao Hongyu said.
Zhao Yanzi bit her lip and struggled for a few seconds. Finally, she said, "Ok, I'll go up and have a look!"
Zhao Hongyu looked happy and said to Hao Ren, "Ren, you can stay with Zi. Go down as soon as you reach the top of the mountain. Call us if you need anything. According to your speed, you should be able to go back and forth in four hours. Then, it will take you another two hours to get to the foot of the mountain. It will be six hours in total, and you will be back at the hotel by seven o 'clock. "
Hao Ren rarely came out, so he didn't want to go back to the hotel to rest. He nodded at Zhao Hongyu and said, "Ok, Auntie. I'll try my best to take care of Zi."
Zhao Guang nodded at Hao Ren encouragingly and turned to go down the mountain with Zhao Hongyu.
Hao Ren knew very well that Zhao Yanzi's parents were creating an opportunity for them to spend time together. However, he didn't think too much about it. He just wanted to see the legendary Taoist temple at the top of the mountain.
Zhao Yanzi had the same idea. When she saw her parents walking away, she shouted at Hao Ren, "Ok! Hurry up! Stop dilly-dallying. Don't drag me down later! "
Hao Ren rolled his eyes at her. He looked up at the bottomless mountain path and took a step forward.
