Chapter 174 Traveling to Danya Mountain
After coming out of Huang Sheng's monastery, Ji Hao originally planned to go and see Huang Wenyu, but he hasn't come to help him practice shape for many days.
However, Ji Hao looked at the time and remembered this point. It was when Mr. Chen taught his apprentice Huang Wenyu and his two sons. He made an appointment with Mao Xizhe to accompany him to Penglai Pavilion this morning, and he couldn't wait long, so he gave up.
He immediately took the 200 taels of silver that Huang Sheng gave him and happily went to Fulai Inn.
…………
It was already early in the Si period when I arrived at Fulai Inn.
Mao Xizhe was sitting in the lobby drinking tea while chatting with Wang Fugui.
It was already past mealtime, and there was no one to eat. Wang Fugui was idle at this time, and he and Ji Hao were quite familiar with him. This talk with Mao Xizhe made many of Ji Hao’s deeds he knew so amazing, and made Mao Xizhe stunned.
When Ji Hao came in, Mao Xizhe's eyes changed a little, full of admiration.
Mao Xizhe smiled and said, "I heard what Manager Wang said today, and I realized that Brother Wenze still has so many deeds in Dengzhou. I really admire him."
After hearing Mao Xizhe's words, Ji Hao couldn't help but glared at Wang Fugui. Obviously, this guy blew a lot to him, and then laughed and scolded: "Yuan Ming, don't listen to Lao Wang's nonsense. Remember the deeds he said from his mouth, you can only believe in 100% of the tens of thousands of dollars."
Mao Xizhe smiled and said, "Brother Wenze is always so humble."
…………
Penglai Pavilion is located on the top of Danya Mountain. Danya Mountain is located in the northwest of Dengzhou Prefecture City, next to Dengzhou Water City.
Ji Hao and Mao Xizhe rode to the foot of Danya Mountain, found a place to store their mounts, and then walked up Danya Mountain.
Danya Mountain is not very high, only fifty or sixty meters. Because the rocks are reddish-brown and the cliffs are towering, it is called Danya. Since ancient times, it has been known as "Danya Fairy Land" and "Penglai Fairy Mountain". Since the construction of Penglai Pavilion on the top of Danya Mountain, it has become even more famous all over the world.
From a distance, the pavilions and pavilions are hidden among the green trees, standing high above the cliffs, like the mythical fairy palace. Below the Penglai Pavilion, facing the sea, the buildings are in the air, and the sea fog is floating around all seasons, and it is known as the "fairyland".
Ji Hao and Mao Xizhe walked through the gate of Danya Mountain and followed the stone steps excavated along the way. Ji Hao and Mao Xizhe slowly walked up the mountain.
Although Danya Mountain is not high, it is quite steep and it took a lot of effort to climb the mountain.
Danya Mountain is not a big mountain, but there are quite a lot of buildings on the mountain. On this Danya Fan, not only is the famous Penglai Pavilion built, but also the Sanqing Hall, Lu Zu Hall, Su Gong Temple, Tianhou Palace, Dragon King Palace, Amitabha Temple and many other temples, lofts, and pavilions.
As the host, Ji Hao naturally introduced these scenic spots to Mao Xizhe. Although he had never been to Penglai Pavilion, he did some homework yesterday.
Therefore, when he visited along the way, Ji Hao led Mao Xizhe to wander around while introducing him to some strange stories.
The two of them walked through these ancient buildings and walked for nearly an hour before they reached Penglai Pavilion.
Penglai Pavilion was first built in the sixth year of Jiayou in the Song Dynasty and was presided over by Zhu Chuyi, the governor of Dengzhou at that time.
The attic is built on the northernmost top of Danya Mountain, facing the sea, with buildings flowing in the sky, and the sea fog floats around all seasons, and is known as the "fairyland".
Before Ji Hao and Mao Xizhe walked to Penglai Pavilion, they heard big waves rolling down below, sweeping across the reefs echoing in their ears. The cool and moist sea breeze blew, causing the sweat on the two people who had been hiking all the way quickly to evaporate, and their expressions were involuntarily excited.
Penglai Loft is fifteen meters high, with a double-layer wooden structure, double-eaved octagonal, surrounded by a red and bright corridor, allowing people to see from afar.
Penglai Pavilion, Huanghe Tower, Yueyang Tower and Tengwang Pavilion are known as the "Four Famous Towers in the World". Today, the entire Ming Dynasty is also the most famous pavilion building.
The four famous buildings in the Tang and Song Dynasties had the Stork Tower. However, when Genghis Khan's golden swords and iron horses attacked the Central Plains in the early Yuan Dynasty, the Stork Tower was destroyed by military disasters and only the old site was left. In the early Ming Dynasty, the former site of the Stork Tower still existed. However, later, due to the flood of the Yellow River and the river channel swings frequently, it was not long before it even made it difficult to find the former site.
Therefore, Penglai Pavilion replaced the disappeared stork tower and became the "Four Famous Buildings in the World" in the Ming Dynasty today.
…………
The two walked into Penglai Pavilion. There were countless literati calligraphy and couplets and stone carvings in the Pavilion.
What is conspicuous is the "Records of Penglai Pavilion" written by Zhu Chuyue, the governor of Dengzhou who presided over the construction of Penglai Pavilion in the Song Dynasty.
Mao Xizhe was very interested in these literati calligraphy and couplets and stone carvings, and couldn't help but read the article "The Record of Penglai Pavilion".
"It is said that Penglai, Fangzhou, Yingzhou is in the sea, and it is all the places where gods and immortals live, and no one can do it. His words are vague and strange, and there are many sayings of alchemists, which is difficult to gain faith. The town where Dengzhou lives is called Penglai, isn't it because the king of Qin and Han dynasties traveled east to pursue his traces, and he thought that gods and immortals can be found, but Penglai was not named, but Penglai was called Penglai? The descendants thought it was confused..."
Mao Xizhe read a paragraph and couldn't help but say, "Penglai has been a fairy-like name since ancient times, and I don't know if there are really gods."
Ji Hao smiled and said, "There are many legends of immortals, and it is also a kind of beautiful yearning. Let's hope there will be immortals."
If Ji Hao was said to have been a firm materialist in the past, but now even something so difficult to explain has happened to his own time travel, his ideas will naturally change. He felt that perhaps there must be some mysterious and magical things in the dark.
Danya Mountain is the highest mountain nearby, while Penglai Pavilion is the top of Danya Mountain. Therefore, if you look out from Penglai Pavilion, you can see all the surrounding scenery, and it is a good place to climb high and look far.
When Ji Hao and Mao Xizhe arrived here, they naturally had to climb high and look into the distance.
The two climbed to the second floor of Penglai Pavilion and walked to the railings. But they saw that the surroundings had a very wide view and looked very happy.
Ji Hao looked north with his railing, but he saw the sea breeze swaying straight into his heart. The sea was vast and wide, and the Sammen Islands were lined up in the distance. But he saw the sea and the sky were all full of sight. At this moment, he couldn't help feeling relaxed and happy.
Looking west, Tianheng Mountain is separated by a small bay.
This Tian Hengshan Mountain is also a famous scenic spot in Dengzhou.
It is said that when the Chu and Han Dynasty were fighting for hegemony, King Tian Heng of Qi escaped the pursuit of Han Xin by Han, and led 500 heroes to go east to Jiaodong to build a camp in this mountain. Later, Tian Heng was unwilling to serve Liu Bang and committed suicide.
Five hundred heroes guarding Tian Heng Mountain suddenly heard the news of Tian Heng's death and sang a funeral song. After the song, they committed loyalty one after another. Tian Heng, who was mighty and unyielding, had a strong spirit and strong integrity, shocked the world and the ghosts and gods, and later generations ordered this mountain to be Tian Heng Mountain.
Moreover, Tian Hengshan has a very famous place because of its geographical location. Tian Hengshan is also called Laobei Mountain, located at the northernmost end of Dengzhou land and the northernmost end of Jiaodong Peninsula. This land headland that breaks into the sea is commonly known as Dengzhou Cape or Penglai Cape. It is the boundary between the Bohai and Huanghai Seas. It has a unique geographical location of "one mountain divides two seas", and is famous all over the world.
Looking eastward, it is Dengzhou Water City built on Danya Mountain.
Dengzhou Water City, also known as Beiwu City, was built in the ninth year of Hongwu. It was the earliest military port in the Ming Dynasty. It was built on the basis of Daoyu Village in the Song Dynasty. According to the Song Dynasty, Daoyu City was set up during the Song Dynasty to inspect the Daoyu City during the Song Dynasty, and the Daoyu City was built, and the Shuitu City was built in the ninth year of Hongwu City in the Ming Dynasty. The water city was built in the north and the Zhenyang Gate was set up in the south. It surrounded the earth city and led the sea water into the city, and changed its name to Beiwu City.
Looking down from Penglai Pavilion, Dengzhou Water City is full of sight. The water city is wide in the south and narrow in the north, and is irregularly rectangular, with mountains and sea control, and the situation is steep. It has water gates, breakwater embankments, flat wave platforms, wharfs, lighthouses, city walls, enemy platforms, forts, moats and other harbor buildings and defensive buildings, all available.
Dengzhou Water City Water City, commonly known as Xiaohai, is located in the city and is in a long bag shape. It is the main body of the water city. It is a place where navy trainers and ships are moored. It is about 70 steps wide from east to west and 430 meters long from north to south. The water depth changes with the tide, and at the lowest point it is about two steps deep. Pinglang platform stands up against the water gate and has a breakwater outside, which is about 60 steps long. The dock is built with stones along the coast of the small sea, which is five steps wide for ships to dock.
Standing on Danya Mountain and looking southeast, you can also see Dengzhou Prefecture City in the distance.
Looking down, I saw the Xianren Bridge built under Penglai Pavilion. The Xianren Bridge is exquisitely structured and unique in shape. It is said to be the place where "Eight Immortals Cross the Sea".
This is the best viewing place to enjoy the two scenic spots of "Xiange in the Sky" and "Fishing and Peak Singing Fishing" among the "Top Ten Scenes of Penglai".
Penglai Pavilion is high on the top of Dan Cliff, with a steep cliff below it hanging upside down on the blue waves. Occasionally, sea mist floats, wrapping the mountainside layer by layer, paintings of buildings and carvings of beams, and trying to fly away by the wind. Therefore, there is a scene of "Immortal Pavilion in the air".
It is said that tourists live on the pavilion, but they feel that the clouds and smoke are floating under their feet, with the sky but no earth, and are so ethereal. The poem by the predecessors says: "The rugged Dan Pavilion leans against the Dan Cliff, overlooking the fairy's house in Yingzhou. Watch the sun for thousands of miles at night, and a curtain of sunshine rolls up the sea and sky."
It is said that in the sea of the Penglai Lord, the reefs are high above the water surface, like leaping and leaping, and are called fishing beams. At that time, three or five old men fished on it, and they picked up the fish and cooked it. They were happy and sang with wine, and they sang in harmony with each other, and the same kind of quiet and elegant charm was very similar to the world in the Peach Blossom Land. The poems of the predecessors said: "The wind is slim and bows lightly, and the dragon hibernates the cave and the waves are flat. Therefore, there is a scene of "fishing, singing, fishing," which is the scene of "fishing, singing, fishing," which is very similar to the world in the Peach Blossom Land. The poem by the predecessors said: "The wind is slim and bows lightly, and the dragon hibernates the cave and the waves are flat. Therefore, there is a scene of "fishing, singing, fishing," which is the scene of "fishing, singing, fishing".
Legend has it that the Qin Fangshi Xu Fu was sent by Emperor Shin-Emperor to take a boat into the East China Sea to seek immortal pills. The famous mythological story of "Eight Immortals Crossing the Sea" is also here. It has been a place where literati and poets gathered since ancient times, and has always been the realm of Taoist scholars to cultivate the truth.
Penglai Pavilion has been a place where celebrities and scholars gather since ancient times. There are many pavilions, halls, corridors, walls, couplets, inscriptions, stone tables, and broken steles in the pavilion. It is full of painting and ink, adding a lot of color to the fairy pavilion.
Ji Hao and the others were on the second floor of Penglai Pavilion, leaning on the railings and looking at the scenery for a long time, and then they retracted their gaze from the distance.
Then both of them were lying on the north railing, looking at the beautiful sea and sky in the distance.
It is said that the wonders of "mirage" often appear in front of Penglai Pavilion. In spring and summer, mirages come to Dengzhou Sea at all times, which makes people feel refreshed and refreshed. "Those who are formed in a variety of shapes may be like a cover, a flag, a pagoda, or a doll, and the spring trees are all the same, and the bridges are intermittent and intertwined, and sometimes appear and sometimes disappear. There are really people who cannot understand their cleverness." This is a vivid portrayal of the wonders of "mirage".
Ji Hao couldn't help but speak, "'The clouds and seas in the east are empty and empty, and the immortals appear in the sky. All things are born in the sky. How can there be a pearl palace hidden in the palace? I know that everything I see is illusion, and I dare to be troubled by the ears and eyes. I am cold and the sky is closed, and I whip the fish and dragon for me. The green building and the green hills are frost and the morning, and strange things are shocked to the hundred-year-old man. The world has gained the power of the world, and who is the hero of the world?'
I have heard that I have been climbing up to Penglai Pavilion and looking at it. There are countless beautiful scenery, but I have been busy with trivial matters and have never been here. Today I have accompanied Yuanming to visit here, which is also a fate. The magnificent scenery of Penglai climbing up to Penglai is truly worthy of its reputation!
It is said that if a mirage appears by chance, it will be clearly seen here. Dengzhou Haicheng is also a wonder that is well-known at home and abroad. Unfortunately, this mirage is rare and requires opportunity. It seems that we can't meet it. Su Xian has only been the prefect of Dengzhou for five days, so how lucky!”
"'I will refuse to refuse, and believe that my people are not poor. The prefect of Chaoyang moved south and was happy to see the pile of stones and Zhurong. He said that he was upright and moved the mountain ghosts, but he knew that the creation was so sad and the dragon was long. It was easy to get the reward of God. The setting sun was lonely birds, but he saw the blue sea grinding bronze. The new poems and fancy words were also used, and they changed and destroyed with the east wind."
Mao Xizhe followed the second half of Su Xian’s “Dengzhou Haishi” that Ji Hao recited, and then sighed: “Yes, after listening to Su Xian’s “Dengzhou Haishi Poems”, I want to see Dengzhou Haishi even more. Listening to the description in this poem, Dengzhou Haishi is so spectacular.”
Next to Ji Hao, he looked at the vast sea at this time and sighed: "It is said that when Emperor Shin-chan visited Penglai, he looked at the sea and saw the scenery of the sea and thought it was a scene of gods and immortals, so he had the idea of going out to sea to find the medicine for immortality. I wonder if he knew that the scenery of the sea was just an illusion, and I wonder if he would regret listening to the words of the alchemist."
According to the three mountains of alchemists, it is generally the name of plants, trees, birds, beasts, gods and monsters. It also says that the immortals have great palaces and peaceful atmospheres. If you eat the plants and trees, you can live and die. All the people who go to the world want to reach the realm and escape from the land of nothingness. Looking at the sea, you can think about things outside, and you are not confused about the sayings.
Jiayou Xinchou, and the country has been governed for more than a year, but the year is not wrong. If it is wind and rain, spring and autumn harvests, the grains are completed, and the people are all safe. Because I think that the beauty of the sea is great, and the gods have temples, so I will renew the temple, which is the old building of this pavilion, which will be a place for the people of the state to visit. The cliffs are thousands of feet high, the sea is heavy and the sea is thousands of miles long, the waves are floating and the waves are surging, the sun rises in Fusang, the river is silver, the moon is shining, the smoke is floating and the mist is floating, the blue mountains are far away, the sand is tide falls, the egrets dance, the fish floats up, the fishing songs are responding. Looking up and looking down, the body is flying, the roc is flying; looking down and looking down, the feet are walking on the back of the turtle.
When I heard this, I couldn't realize that the Penglai of the gods was the Penglai of the world. The virtues of the highest level were far away, and the kindness was as in the spring, as if it was a commoner in the realm of benevolence and longevity. This was the Penglai of the world. Later, I called it Penglai of the pavilion, which was called Penglai, because I was determined to be a matter of time, but I didn't know that the Penglai of the gods was the Penglai of the gods.
