Chapter 259 Ancient Temple
Not long after lunch the next day, Li Weisi rode the motorcycle he borrowed to pick Li Tianyou up to the most famous scenery in this small town: the ancient temple.
The ancient temple is not in a small town, but on a mountain about 20 kilometers away from the city. After arriving there, Li Tianyou realized that it was wise for Uncle Er to borrow a motorcycle, because the road was rugged and uneven, if it wasn't for an off-road vehicle, it would be difficult to get here if it wasn't for an off-road vehicle.
The ancient temple is not big. Apart from a main hall, there is only a row of rooms outside. However, the statues in the temple are very large, from the base to the top, as high as the third floor. And after thousands of years, the color of the Buddha statue is still so bright.
"We are rarely here, but many outsiders often come here." Li Weisi saw Li Tianyou so obsessed with her and explained on the side that all the buildings here have a history of more than a thousand years, but the most worth seeing is this Buddha statue.
"Is there no charge here?" Li Tianyou saw that there was basically nothing, at least he had not seen anyone other than himself and his second uncle so far.
"If a dilapidated temple is still charged, who would come? But there was a person here to watch the night, and the villagers in the village next to it seemed that the Municipal Culture Bureau would give them a few dozen yuan a month's salary, which is a disadvantage for them." Li Weisi said. At this time, there were still many scenic spots in China that had not been developed. These places were worthless before they were developed. When they were renovated, they would become a treasure pot. Of course, they had to find a selling point for these places.
"That's right, what are the paintings on the surrounding walls?" Li Tianyou saw that in addition to the huge Buddha statue in the Main Hall, there were some murals on the walls, all of which were pictures of some characters.
"I don't know much about this. We usually don't come here to see this ancient temple. In fact, the scenery behind the temple is even more charming." Li Weisi said that there is a mountain behind the temple, which has a unique scenery, with a small waterfall, a stream, a pavilion and some caves. Many people come here, in addition to looking at this ancient temple, they mainly go to the back to play, except for a few people who really know how to appreciate it.
"I should bring a camera, the patterns here are very beautiful." Although Li Tianyou was not an archaeological expert in his previous life, he was really interested in the paintings on the walls this time, and even these patterns were more attractive to him than the big Buddha statue that should have been the most attractive.
"It's okay. If you want to think this place is really good, we will come back tomorrow." Li Weisi said.
"Okay, Uncle Second, please ask me if it's sold here. If possible, I want to move this ancient temple to H-san." Li Tianyou said. He suddenly felt that just taking pictures was not enough. If he moved this ancient temple to H-san province and moved it to his three mountains, he could enjoy these at any time.
"Buy?" Li Weisi said in surprise. He didn't expect Li Tianyou to ask such a question.
"Yes, you may have to ask the city's cultural bureau for this matter. If they say they can sell it, it's okay. I'm going to transport everything here, including the stones on the ground." Li Tianyou said.
"If possible, I'll help you tear down the place." Li Weisi comforted him. He thought this was a temporary intention of the child and it was impossible to achieve.
The scenery on the back mountain is beautiful, the stream here is clear, the pavilion is unique, and the cave is magical. It is beautiful, and the important thing is that it is quiet. Except for Li Weisi and Li Tianyou, there are only Paul and Kochajin who are secretly protecting them. Li Tianyou is very relaxed here. He can even sit in the pavilion for an hour and watch the scenery in the distance quietly. In the cave, he can sit in the dark for two hours without moving, and even scare Li Weisi to think something has happened to him.
"Tianyou, we have to go back, otherwise we can't get home before it gets dark." Li Weisi said. Since Li Weiqi took Li Tianyou home, Li Weisi could only sleep in the living room or go to his girlfriend Wang Rong.
"Okay." Li Tianyou said reluctantly. He decided to stop here for another day tomorrow and come here with Paul and others.
But Li Weisi had to return not long after carrying Li Tianyou because it suddenly started to rain heavily, and it was like pouring rain. Li Weisi did not bring a raincoat, and even if he brought it, he would not dare to ride a bicycle on such a road. You must know that once it rains, the whole road will be filled with potholes and may fall at any time.
"Tianyou, it seems we have to spend the night here tonight." Li Weisi and Li Tianyou returned to the ancient temple. Fortunately, there was no water leakage here. Although the coldness at night was so cold, if a fire broke out, it would not feel too cold.
"There is no way, it is easy to get into trouble when moving forward in the rain." Li Tianyou said.
Li Weisi and Li Tianyou raised a fire in the hall, which quickly drove away the cold air on their bodies. Now the sky outside was getting darker, and Li Tianyou took advantage of the fire to look carefully at the murals on the walls.
"Tianyou, are you cold?" Li Weisi took off her coat and put it on Li Tianyou.
"It's not cold. I think if the dust on these walls could be cleaned up, maybe these paintings would be more beautiful." Li Tianyou said.
"I heard your father say that you don't seem to have any enthusiasts, but I didn't expect you to be interested in these paintings." Li Weisi smiled. He asked his brother what his interests and hobbies were about him, but Li Weiqi didn't know after asking. Now it seems that he is very interested in these ancient paintings.
"It's the first time I've seen these things, and I think they're very interesting." In fact, Li Tianyou does think that this is very interesting in paintings. In fact, these murals are not separate, but continuity. There are two groups of paintings on the wall, one is a monk sitting on his legs with his legs apart, and the other is standing, but the monk's hands in the patterns of the two groups are basically the same, both at his waist.
There were no stools in the hall at this time, so Li Tianyou simply sat on the ground in the first painting posture, spreading his legs apart and putting his hands on his hips.
"Many people have done this like you before, including me." Li Weisi couldn't help but smile when she saw Li Tianyou learning the movements in the pictures on the wall.
"Really?" Li Tianyou asked. He thought he had an adventure when he came here today. It turned out that others had known and tried it.
"Of course, when Shaolin Temple was put in a few years ago, it was so lively. People came here to practice qigong every day, and even a monk appeared. Many people also discovered the pictures on the wall and regarded it as a martial arts secret. I came to practice for a week, but later I gave up when I saw that there was no effect." Li Weisi said.
"You came here every day?" Li Tianyou asked, his hands kept pressing on his waist, but his mind was attracted by Li Weisi.
"Of course, I only need half an hour to ride a bicycle every morning for 20 kilometers, which is faster than riding a motorcycle." Li Weisiqi said. At that time, I don't know how many people came here with a dream of kung fu. There was no Shaolin Temple in W Province, and this small town seemed to be only here, and it seemed that this place could be called a temple, so the excitement at that time could only be described as a hot topic.
As the sky became darker and the paintings on the wall became increasingly difficult to see clearly, Li Tianyou only practiced according to the same picture in the previous picture, and like Li Weisi, there was no effect at all. Li Tianyou slowly gave up this fantasy later.
"Who are you?"
When Li Weisi and Li Tianyou were almost asleep, a shout suddenly came from outside.
"We are here to play, we can't go back when it rains." Li Weisi said.
"It's raining so hard tonight." The outside cursed. He was the night watcher here. He didn't want to come to rain tonight, but he thought that the Cultural Bureau would pay him a few dozen yuan a month and he had to be worthy of the money. But after he arrived here, he found that the temple was colder than he thought. He wanted to make a fire by himself, but he didn't expect that he saw a light in the hall.
"My fellow villager, we haven't had dinner yet, can we buy you something to eat?" Li Weisi has always been worried that Li Tianyou wouldn't eat at night, but he couldn't buy it even if he had money in this place, not to mention that it was raining heavily outside.
"What are you buying or not? Who doesn't go out? I'll give you two bowls of noodles for you to go back."
It is definitely a pleasure to eat a bowl of hot noodles on a cold night. Li Tianyou, who had just felt that the night was long, suddenly felt much better. Now he was only worried about Heer and Kochajin. Since they were not in the temple, they would definitely be on the mountain. Obviously, they could not avoid such storms in the pavilion, so they could only wait in the cave.
"Tianyou, are you full?" Li Weisi asked with concern.
"If it's not enough, I'll go back and make a bowl." The night watchman also said.
"I'm very full." Li Tianyou handed over the bowl, and there was also a hundred-dollar bill.
"I said I don't have to charge money. Besides, I can't find such a big banknote."
"Then don't look for it. When we were cold and hungry, you gave us two bowls of noodles. This is something that I can't buy." Li Tianyou forced the money into his hands.
One hundred yuan is a large amount for the people here. You must know that this night watchman worked for several months to earn one hundred yuan. So he refused and accepted the money, but he kept saying that he felt that he promised to make two more bowls of noodles tomorrow morning and add poached eggs, so he would not be able to pay him any more.
