The night passed.
Everyone slept well that night, and everyone got up very early the next morning. After having a quick bite to eat, they set off to start today's trip.
This morning, they first went to the famous Giant Panda Breeding Base in Chengdu. Here they saw China's national treasure giant pandas and some rare peacocks. This base may be the largest giant panda breeding base in China. Just visiting here is exciting. It took up their entire morning.
It was also at noon that day that Mo Lin and the others ate the most famous delicacy in Chengdu - hot pot!
The hot pot that Mo Lin and the others ate was the most famous internet celebrity hot pot restaurant in Chengdu. They had heard for a long time that the hot pot here was very authentic and quite characteristic of Chengdu - spicy. Mo Lin and the others ordered a mandarin duck pot and waited until all the ingredients were served. , everyone poured the ingredients into the spicy pot.
After a while, all five of them, Mo Lin, were unbearably spicy. The hot pot in Chengdu was indeed spicy enough. Even Han Lu said it was the spiciest hot pot he had ever tasted. The hot pots in Yaozhou City were mediocre. , although it is a bit spicy, it is not very exciting. It is not a worthwhile trip to experience the spicy taste of Chengdu hot pot.
At least in Han Lu's opinion, this trip to Chengdu was worth it, because Lu Baoping would not take Han Lu to eat such delicious, spicy, and expensive hot pot. If Lu Baoping knew that Han Lu lived in a four-star hotel in Chengdu, In the hotel, she ate the best hot pot. I'm afraid her snake-like heart would be restless again. Fortunately, this is Chengdu, eight hundred miles across the Qinchuan River from Yaozhou City, and Lu Baoping's hands can't stretch that long. !
Chengdu has been a land of abundance and a land of plenty since ancient times. In addition, it also has a strong culture of the Three Kingdoms. Wuhou Temple is Mo Lin’s afternoon destination.
Most attractions in Chengdu require admission fees, and Wuhou Temple is no exception. Fortunately, the admission fees are not very expensive.
Mo Lin and the others walked into the gate of Wuhou Temple. In the small courtyard in front of the temple, there was a statue of Zhuge Liang, the prime minister of the Shu Han Dynasty during the Three Kingdoms period.
This statue is very majestic. Zhuge Liang puts his left hand behind his back and holds a feather fan in his right hand. He looks up to the north with a slightly sad face. He seems to have been worrying about the future of the Shu Han, the great trust of the late emperor, and his obsession with the Northern Expedition to the Central Plains and the restoration of the Han Dynasty.
Han Lu stood in front of the statue of Zhuge Liang, looking at the statue and ancestral hall of the Prime Minister of the Shu Han Dynasty, with mixed feelings in her heart. On both sides of the statue were placed steel mottos made of steel. Qi Mingzhi and Zhang Xiaoyu looked at the statue everywhere before going to see it. It was time to show off, and only Han Lu stood in front of the statue looking at Zhuge Liang for a long time.
Although the two are thousands of years apart, just like a teacher and a student, Zhuge Liang's words and deeds have always influenced Han Lu, and Han Lu can also understand Zhuge Liang's hard work. Han Lu never wants to be like Zhuge Liang in this life. I will leave my name throughout the ages, but I hope that I can realize my college dream that I know I can’t achieve!
I believe that Zhuge Liang, who came out of Qishan six times at that time, did not know that he would be famous throughout the ages. Zhuge Liang had always tried his best to assist Liu Chan during his lifetime. He came out of Qishan six times just to find a glimmer of hope to restore the Han Dynasty. For this glimmer of hope, he set up his own For the rest of his life, before his death, he was still worried about the future of Shu Han.
Historically, Zhuge Liang was good at politics but not good at military affairs. Marching and fighting were not his strong point. However, for the sake of a country that was riddled with internal and external troubles, Zhuge Liang did not hesitate. Today, a thousand years later, Han Lu and Zhuge Liang are facing such a situation. Similarly, it was for the sake of that rotten family, which had internal and external troubles, that he fulfilled the obsession that Lu Baoping had instilled in him since he was a child, and resolutely made it to where he is today!
Even if it doesn't succeed this time, there will be a next time. If it doesn't succeed next time, there will be a next time. Whether it is Zhuge Liang's restoration of the Central Plains or Han Lu's entrance to college, both of them have an undying obsession, no matter what obstacles they encounter, Neither can shake his determination and perseverance.
Looking at the statue of Zhuge Liang, Han Lu's eyes were a little moist. She looked at the plants and trees in Wuhou Temple, and looked at the instructions Zhuge Liang had written during his lifetime. It was as if Zhuge Liang was telling Han Lu what he should do now after thousands of years. .
"A gentleman's journey is to cultivate one's character through tranquility, and to cultivate virtue through frugality. If it is not indifferent, it will not clear its aspirations, and if it is not tranquil, it will not be far-reaching."
"To conquer the Central Plains, seize the day and night. Those who serve as ministers should fulfill their duties as ministers and share your worries for the king!"
After thousands of years, Zhuge Liang seemed to see Han Lu's current situation, and conveyed the answer to Han Lu's doubts through this statue.
Yes, do your best in everything and work hard
, after death. Put everything on the line. If you still fail in the end, it is God's will and destiny!
Han Lu got the answer in her heart, came to Wuhou Temple, and knelt down to Zhuge Liang, who was worshiping above. From then on, her ambition became more determined. Even if Lu Baoping and Han Pingfan tried their best to stop her, she would overcome all difficulties. , head on!
"Lao Lu, stop looking at Zhuge Liang. We should go to the next scenic spot." Mo Lin naturally knew Zhuge Liang's status in Han Lu's heart, so he didn't disturb him at the beginning, but this also brought back his sad past. , so Mo Lin did not plan to stay in Wuhou Temple any longer.
The exit of Wuhou Temple is Jinli Ancient Street. This street is similar to Kuanzhai Alley. The whole street is very lively and crowded with people. Both sides of the street are filled with Chengdu specialty snacks. These snacks are slightly expensive, but it is not easy to come to Chengdu. , no one wanted to go back with regrets, so everyone bought three or four kinds of food on this street.
At this time, Mo Lin and the others stopped in front of a large teahouse to watch a Sichuan Opera performance. This Sichuan Opera is a characteristic of Sichuan culture and is rare to see live. Although they didn't understand it very well, they were all watching it along with the fun.
At this time, Mo Lin found Han Lu looking at her phone not far away with a gloomy expression.
"Lao Lu, what's wrong with you? Why don't you come to watch Sichuan Opera." Mo Lin came over and glanced at Han Lu's mobile phone. Lu Baoping sent a message to Han Lu, asking Han Lu to bring back some Chengdu specialties. , but only gave him eighty yuan.
Eighty dollars!
As Han Lu's mother, Lu Baoping didn't give her son a penny when he went out. Instead, she asked her son to bring her specialties back, and she only gave her 80 yuan. What could she buy with 80 yuan now? On Jinli Street, you can buy up to two Chengdu specialties for 80 yuan.
"It's okay, it's my mother who wants me to give money to buy specialties." Han Lu said coldly: "Don't worry about her, she can buy as much stuff as she wants!"
Later, while everyone was watching Sichuan opera, Han Lu went to a Chengdu specialty store and bought a pack of cheap hot pot base ingredients and two boxes of glutinous rice cakes. The price was not more than 80 yuan. There's quite a bit, so make the most of it!
After this unpleasant episode ended, Han Lu followed Mo Lin and others to watch Sichuan Opera. After watching the Sichuan Opera, everyone returned to the hotel to rest and prepare for the third and final day of the trip.
The last day's itinerary is Chengdu's famous Dujiangyan and Qingcheng Mountain.
This morning, Mo Lin and the others got up at six o'clock in the morning. Since there is a long distance between Chengdu and Dujiangyan, they had to get up early.
After arriving at the station, we got on the bus and embarked on the final leg of our trip to Chengdu. They will return to Yaozhou City at noon tomorrow.
Dujiangyan is a large-scale water conservancy project built by Li Bing and his son in the Qin Dynasty. After getting off the bus, Mo Lin and the others could hear the sound of rushing water. Full of longing, they came to the dam and saw a beautiful and spectacular scene. , this is a long and vast Minjiang River. Standing on the dam of Dujiangyan, looking down at the turbulent river water below. Although it is almost summer and the weather is already a little hot, standing on the dam of Dujiangyan does not feel uncomfortable at all. It feels hot, but it feels a little cool. I heard from the locals that people who live close to Dujiangyan will not feel hot all year round.
Looking at the magnificent Dujiangyan, Han Lu was filled with emotions. In his world, places like Dujiangyan and places like Chengdu are tourist attractions. Compared with his hometown, Yaozhou City is simply inferior. .
In the morning, Mo Lin and the others visited Dujiangyan, and in the afternoon they visited Qingcheng Mountain. Qingcheng Mountain is also a famous mountain in Sichuan. It is said to be the earliest birthplace of Chinese Taoism, and an ancient Taoist sect is stationed here - Zhengyi Sect!
Zhengyi Sect is one of the three top Taoist sects currently located under Longhu Mountain and Maoshan Mountain. It is said that its Taoist sect is stationed somewhere on Qingcheng Mountain. Maybe the staff who collect tickets for scenic spots are from Zhengyi Sect. Outer disciple.
Mo Lin and the others came to the foot of Qingcheng Mountain and looked at the picturesque Qingcheng Mountain that towered into the sky. Their hearts were full of longing. After buying the tickets, Mo Lin pointed to the top of the mountain in the distance and shouted: "Rush to the top of the mountain. Let’s go!”
Following Mo Lin's shout, everyone crossed the gate of Qingcheng Mountain and rushed towards Qingcheng Mountain.
The foothills of Qingcheng Mountain and ordinary
There is no difference between the mountains. After climbing for a while, we finally arrived at Shangqing Palace. This is also the first scenic spot worth stopping at. In this Shangqing Palace, the founder of Taoism, Sanqing, is enshrined.
When Mo Lin and Li Ao came here, they both bought a stick of incense and offered it to the Taoist Sanqing Patriarch. After all, this was their ancestor.
There are several Taoist temples, large and small, in Shangqing Palace, all of which are dedicated to gods. After Mo Lin and the others visited this place, they continued walking up the mountain. This walk lasted more than two hours.
The sun was scorching hot on Qingcheng Mountain. The further they walked up the mountain, the more unbearably hot Mo Lin and the others felt. They had already finished drinking the water they brought. However, a bottle of water at the mountain attractions cost 500 yuan. They were reluctant to buy it, until in the end everyone couldn't climb anymore, so they all bought a bottle of mineral water for 5 yuan.
"Ouch, I can't stand it anymore, I can't climb anymore!" Qi Mingzhi gasped, the sweat on his head was like running water, and a large area of his back was already soaked.
"Everyone, work harder, we will reach the top of the mountain soon." Molin said.
"No, I've run out of water. I'll really get heatstroke if I climb down again." Han Lu also panted and said, "If you and Brother Ao have the strength, you can climb. We'll rest here for a while and wait for you to come down."
