Chapter 73: The Scenery of Nantian
After bidding farewell to Wen Yuliang and Xu Xiaoqian, the three of them went straight to Nantian Mountain in Jiangnan County.
The three of them traveled non-stop, passing through Wuning, crossing Lushan Mountain, and passing through Jingde, and finally arrived at Nantian Mountain in Jiangnan County in the evening three days later.
Nantian Mountain is a relatively famous mountain in the Jiangnan area. Because the mountain range to which it belongs is a high mountain platform, the terrain is flat and vast, and there is a large area of fertile good land and named, beautiful scenery, pleasant climate, outstanding people, this is also the hometown of Liu Bowen, the founding army of the Ming Dynasty, known as "the sixth blessed land of the world's seventy-two blessed lands". This place is called a blessed land, because the high mountain platform here is more than 600 meters above sea level, boats are not available, war horses are difficult to climb, and there is less suffering from war; In addition, there are mountains and springs and fields, rice and potato grain, no risk of drought and flood, cool climate, less pest plague, can be described as food and clothing; In terms of layout, this is a treasure land of feng shui in the Jiangnan area. The Song Dynasty poet Zhao Shixia once wrote a poem "Remembering Jiangnan", which was handed down to the world, and the poem said: "Heaven shares water, water is far from heaven and sky." The sky is clear and the moon is cold, and the water and light and the moon are both. The moon reflects the water and the sky. People and scenery, people and scenery are difficult to complete. Jing Ruojia is happy when she is happy, and her heart is still happy with Jing Yingyan. Hugh and layman's words. ”
"This is Nantian Mountain!" When Blue Sky was reveling in the beautiful scenery of Nantian Mountain, Zhan Lingfei suddenly interrupted his contemplation.
"Well, this is Nantian Mountain, the hometown of the Wen Yuliang brothers, and the hometown of Liu Bowen, the founding army master of the Ming Dynasty." Blue skies answered.
"The scenery here is really beautiful!" Lin Ruxue, who was incarnated in the blue sky, couldn't help but sigh.
"Well, the mountains and waters here are beautiful, so it can give birth to historical wizards like Liu Bowen!" Blue skies answered.
After Lan Tianhua finished speaking, he dismounted, and Lin Ruxue and Zhan Lingfei also dismounted.
The three of them led the horse while chatting and walking, and after walking for a while, they came to Baizhangzhao on the east side of the village entrance of Wuyang Village.
This hundred zhang is a collection of rainwater from an area of more than 600 square kilometers around Nantian Mountain, and it rushes down from the steep cliff wall next to the high mountain platform, which is magnificent and magnificent. There are a total of one waterfall, two zhang, three and three waterfalls, and the height is about 100 zhang, so the name is Baizhang.
The blue sky three people found a big tree nearby to tie up the two horses, and then began to walk along the path between the canyon and the water, sometimes stepping on steps, sometimes passing through small caves, turning mountain roads, and in the valley, a hundred zhang and three rivers were displayed in front of them. The waterfall here is not high but wide, with huge boulders hidden between the streams, revealing green moss under the washing of the stream, and staggered stepped waterfalls spread out on one side, reflecting each other in the shade of the greenery, and the water flow is particularly majestic. The hundred zhang erzhu is more than 20 zhang high, the waterfall outside the water curtain cave is particularly magnificent, there is a rock corridor at the middle of the waterfall, and the waterfall in the corridor is like a curtain, full of fun. There is a deep pool under the erzhuo, which is deep and bottomless, from which the name Erzhuo is 100 zhang deep. A waterfall is more than 70 zhang high, so it is known as a hundred zhang high.
The waterfall pours down from the cliff wall of Baizhang, the water and the sky meet, the snow and fog fly, the scattered rolling beads leak jade, like smoke clouds suddenly rise, endless, the breeze blows, suddenly feel refreshed, the waterfall is even more roaring 100 meters away, earth-shattering, becoming a wonder. The surrounding mountains and peaks rise up and reach the sky, some like stone towers, some like eagles spreading their wings, and some like sails on water. The pine forest under the foot is towering, the shrubs are dense, and against the background of winding paths and small bridges and flowing water, it looks like a majestic and beautiful picture. As Liu Bowen's poem "Watching the Waterfall" says: "The cliffs are shocking, and the hundred hu throws crystals in the sky." In June, frost and snow flew, and three winters were even more angry and thunderous. ”
The three of them walked out of Baizhang, and a small wooden bridge appeared in front of them, and they happened to meet an old man who collected firewood from the opposite side of the wooden bridge.
Lan Tianhua stopped, smiled and asked the old man who collected firewood: "Old man, excuse me!" We came to Nantian Mountain from abroad to search for scriptures, you are a local, do you know where this Nantian Mountain hides the book "Divine Revelation Through the Heavenly Machine"? ”
Seeing three young men standing in front of him, the young man who asked him had a kind face and bright eyes, so he replied: "Young man, what book are you talking about?" I can't understand an old man who picks firewood, and if you ask me where the scriptures are hidden, I don't know. I just heard the people in the village say that there is a Lingyun Pavilion on the highest peak in Nantian Mountain, Hefeng, and there are statues of gods in Lingyun Pavilion, maybe this Lingyun Pavilion contains the scriptures you are looking for! ”
When Lan Tianhua heard this, he suddenly came to his senses and continued to ask, "Lingyun Pavilion of Hefeng? Then may I ask the old man, which mountain is the crane peak? ”
When the old man heard this, he looked back at the peaks, stretched out his finger and pointed to a cloudy mountain and said to the blue sky: "Young man, you see, that mountain with clouds and mist is the highest peak, Hefeng. If you want to find books, please take care of yourself! I still have to go home, old man, and I can't show you the way." ”
Lan Tianhua thanked him: "Thank you for the old man's guidance, the old man is his own!" ”
The old man who collected firewood bid farewell to the blue sky and left.
"Let's go, let's go to this crane peak and look for it!" Lan Tianhua said to Lin Ruxue and Zhan Lingfei.
"Okay, let's hurry up the mountain!" Lin Ruxue and Zhan Lingfei responded.
The three of them followed the guidance of the old man who collected firewood and began to climb towards Hefeng, the highest peak of Nantian Mountain.
The three of them climbed all the way up, passing Guishou Cliff, Eagle Rock, and Longbi Cave, and encountered the Chengyi Bo Tomb, which is Liu Bowen's tomb, halfway up the mountain. There is a stone tablet in front of the tomb, engraved "Liu Wencheng Cemetery, the founding master of the Ming Dynasty", and there is a field shaped like ink ink, and there are small mounds, shaped like dragon balls. To the left of the tomb is a pint hill, shaped like a pen stand.
The three of Lan Tianhua stopped, and Lan Tianhua took Lin Ruxue and Zhan Lingfei to bow down in front of the tomb, and performed three kowtowing salutes to Liu Bowen's tomb to show their reverence for this historical wizard.
After the worship, the three continued to climb the mountain.
Half an hour later, the three of them finally reached the peak of Hefeng.
The top of the mountain is lined with spirit rocks and rugged rocks.
The three of them saw from a distance, in the middle of the strange rock, there is a classical temple-style attic, the attic is green bricks and blue tiles, the porch is supported by red columns, the attic has two floors, and a plaque hangs above the main entrance of the first floor, with three large yellow characters on the book "Lingyun Pavilion".
Lingyun Pavilion
"Look, this is Lingyun Pavilion." Lin Ruxue said in surprise.
"The Lingyun Pavilion that the old man said about collecting firewood is here." Zhan Lingfei was also very surprised.
"Well, yes, we're finally at our destination. Let's go, let's go inside and take a look! Blue Sky said in response.
After Lan Tianhua finished speaking, he waved his hand to Lin Ruxue and Zhan Lingfei, and walked towards Lingyun Pavilion.
