The terrain of the capital city is flat with few mountains. The highest peak in the area, Guoshan Mountain, is not very high. Its shape is like a convex turtle shell, flat and broad. The Immortal Peak where Zhenwu Temple is located is a small flat peak at the western foot of Guoshan Mountain. From a distance, it looks like a tortoise raising its head. Zhenwu Temple is located on the Immortal Peak, just like Xuanwu raising his head and looking at the capital from east to west. What an auspicious meaning! Therefore, since the temple was built 320 years ago to welcome guests, the incense and pilgrims are constantly flowing. It is the first choice place for young and old in the capital to pray to God and ask for divination.
Taoist architecture has always kept its shape but not its spirit. The Zhenwu Temple is not very majestic from a distance, but being inside makes people feel refreshed and relaxed, as if it has captured the aura of heaven and earth.
"Haitang, are you tired? Do you want to sit aside and message me?" Mei Yuanchen stopped, straightened his bag, and turned around to ask Haitang behind him. Zhenwu Temple is located on the top of the mountain, and all the trails are paved with stone steps. Horse-drawn carriages are not allowed to move on their own and can only stop at the gate at the foot of the mountain. It was still five or six miles from Guanmen to Juzhuan, so the pilgrims had no choice but to walk on foot. The two of them had climbed to the mountainside for nearly half an hour, and they were both sweating slightly. Today is the first day of February, the first day of every month. There have been more people going to the temple to offer incense and pray for blessings, several times more than usual. At this time, the road up the mountain was shady again and the sky was quite unclear. There were already an endless stream of pilgrims on the steps, which was no less than in the street market. Haitang looked around and saw that many people were sitting on the steps and resting. Seeing that Mei Yuanchen had sweat on his forehead, he bent down and cleared the stone steps under his feet. He smiled and said, "Then take a rest here. It's still early anyway. Just sit here." Yan Bi pointed to the steps that had just been cleared and motioned for Mei Yuanchen to sit down.
Seeing that Mei Yuanchen had sat down, Haitang also cleared the stone steps under her feet, sat down about three feet away from him, and headed down the mountain. Mei Yuanchen saw that she was sitting so far away from him and so close to the top of the steps. He lowered his head and plucked the dead leaves from the stone steps beside him. He reached out to pull Haitang's right sleeve and begged, "Good Haitang, please leave." What am I doing so far away? And there is a cliff ten feet high next to it, how dangerous it is! How about you sit here?" Haitang looked away, but followed Mei Yuanchen's strength to pull herself to her side. Just as he was thinking about something, he suddenly felt something hit his face. He turned around and saw that it was Mei Yuanchen who was covering his sleeves to wipe his sweat.
Mei Yuanchen held the hair on the right side of Haitang's head with his left hand, wrapped his sleeve with his right hand and gently wiped the left side of her face, and said warmly, "Haitang, walking on the mountain trail for so long will make you exhausted. Just don't move for now. Let me wipe your sweat!" Haitang couldn't stand Mei Yuanchen's gentle words. She moved her body and gently broke away his hands, took off a goose-yellow square handkerchief from her belt, sat up slightly and came closer to him. Next to him, go and wipe the sweat from his forehead. Mei Yuanchen sat quietly, closed her eyes, and felt her light and gentle touch.
"Let's go, look, everyone else has finished leaving." Mei Yuanchen was immersed in the soft warmth, with a look of intoxication on his face, when he suddenly heard Haitang yell, and even though he was reluctant, he could only lazily get up. Just as he was about to pull Haitang up, she stood up first and walked in front. She looked back and said with a smile, "Are you going to chase me?"
Upon seeing this, Mei Yuanchen quickly chased after him, shouting loudly from behind, "You actually ran away first. When I catch up with you, I have to punish you!" Although he was talking, he did not waste his time on his feet and took three steps at the same time. After two steps, he caught Haitang on a flat area at the corner of the mountain road and hugged her tightly from behind. Mei Yuanchen originally had no other thoughts. He just hugged Haitang to his chest and felt her soft and fragrant girlish breath. He was a little obsessed for a moment and said hoarsely and lowly, "I just said I would punish you." Haitang. Being held like this by Mei Yuanchen, he felt shy for a while, his face turned red, and he said in a slightly trembling sweet voice, "You said yesterday that you wouldn't bully me." Mei Yuanchen felt that his body was unbearably hot, and he felt a little Unable to control herself, she put her head close to Haitang's ear and face, rubbing it gently. Her nose was filled with the faint body fragrance of the girl, and when she heard the sweet and soft voice of the person in her arms, she couldn't help but kiss her earlobe and face several times. , said confusedly, "Good sister, I will punish you like this, okay?" while his hands were still gently groping her waist and abdomen. At this time, Haitang had no strength left in her whole body, and she leaned on Mei Yuanchen with all her strength, with Mei Si in the corner of her eyes. She let him hold her, but tightly held his hands around her waist, and murmured as if in sleep. He said, "I, I was born to be bullied by you. I just hope you won't dislike me in the future."
Mei Yuanchen was overjoyed when he heard this. He gently turned Haitang to face him. He held the back of her head with one hand and hugged her slim waist with the other. He put his head against her forehead, their noses touched and said warmly, "Kiss." Haitang, don’t you know how much I love you and cherish you? Even if I take my own life, I will never give up on you! I really thank God for arranging you to be by my side so that I can be as I am now Holding you and loving you so much! When you are by my side, I feel at ease and happy, and I feel that there is so much fun in the days when my parents are not around! Haitang, do you know?"
Haitang was hugged by Mei Yuanchen, and his warm breath came from her mouth and nose. It was the first time she felt that he was so close to her, so close. This kind of closeness made them no longer master and servant, nor sister and brother. This pure heterosexual love made her panic in her mind and heart. She couldn't even think about it at all, and unconsciously reached out to hug Mei Yuan. Chen, it took him a long while to reply with the word "hmm".
The atmosphere here was pleasant, but someone was heard walking not far away. The footsteps were very close, and Haitang hurriedly broke away from Mei Yuanchen's arms. After the conversation just now, Haitang had already decided that she would be a member of the Mei family in this life. Mei Yuanchen reached out to hold her, but she refused and let him hold his hand. The two of them looked at each other affectionately, smiled, and walked up the stairs.
