Chapter 825: Carrying the Beauty Up the Mountain

Lin Xiaohu wanted to take her to see the construction of the park first, but Guo Maomao shook his head and said he was not interested. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Then I didn't say it.,Let's go straight to the Houshan Grandma Temple.。

Houshan Grandma Temple is located in Hongya Mountain, 30 miles west of Shanggu City, and it only takes about 30 minutes to drive. However, it is now during the "March 15 Grandma Temple Fair", there are too many cars going into the mountains everywhere, and the road is too narrow, so it took Lin Xiaohu and Guo Maomao about an hour to rush over. After parking the car in a temporary parking lot carved out by local villagers, the two walked side by side towards the mountain.

When it comes to the Houshan Grandma Temple, we have to tell a beautiful and moving story.

In the local folklore story, it is described as follows: During the Eastern Han Dynasty, Wang Mang usurped power and wanted to cut down the grass and kill Liu Xiu. Wang Mang's army pursued Liu Xiu. One day at noon, I arrived at the upper valley of the Honghang Mountain. Liu Xiu is already desperate. Seeing a very dilapidated thatched house at the bottom of the mountain, Liu Xiu ran in and saw only an old woman with gray hair. Liu Xiu shouted eagerly: "Grandma save me, someone behind me wants to kill me!" ”。 The old woman looked up and saw that it was a teenage child, and she was in a hurry and said, "You quickly lie on the ground, close your eyes and don't move", and then the old woman poured the rice left over from noon on Liu Xiu's body. Then the pursuers came in and asked, "One of you may come to you and hand him over." The old woman shook her head and said no. The pursuers said, "Why is there anyone underground?" The old woman said, "This is my son, who died a few days ago, and has maggots on his body. The pursuer glanced at it, almost dying of nausea, and did not look closely, turned and walked away to continue the pursuit. In this way, the old woman saved Liu Xiu's life. After Liu Xiu became the emperor, in order to repay the kindness of the old woman, he built a "grandmother temple" on Hongya Mountain in the upper valley, commonly known as the "grandmother temple" in the back mountain.

Of course, there is more than one Liu Xiu's legend about the grandmother in the back mountain, and there are also Aunt Zhang, Aunt Li and the like, but they are not as influential as Liu Xiu, so Liu Xiu said that it is genuine for the time being.

Regardless of whether this story is true or not, there is no doubt that the Houshan Grandma Temple has survived for a long time. According to expert research, before the Qin and Han dynasties, the emperors and princes of all dynasties held activities such as worshiping the sky, sealing Zen, and worshipping ancestors in the mountains behind the valley. The activities of worshiping the sky, sealing Zen, and worshipping ancestors were changed to today's Mount Tai, which began with Qin Shi Huang ascending Mount Tai to seal Zen. Therefore, experts and scholars believe that Shanggu Houshan is the "first ancestral mountain in China", the location of the first ancestral temple in China - the Yellow Emperor Temple, and one of the most important birthplaces of the integration and unification of the Chinese nation.

The temple here has two meanings, one is the meaning of the temple, from the foot of the mountain to the top of the mountain, there are hundreds of big temples and small temples on both sides of the road along the way, there are simple pits dug in the stone for an incense burner, there are also several large rooms facing the south and the north, visitors can burn incense and worship grandma in it; The other is the temple fair in the common sense, where vendors from all over the world bring local special food, utensils, daily necessities or something, set up stalls along the street, visitors can buy at will, and the most important thing is that the price is not expensive.

It may be a bit complicated to say this, but to put it simply, it is similar to the scenic spots of Huangshan, Mount Tai or Huashan, where visitors can shop along the way, and they can also burn incense and worship the Buddha to enjoy the scenery.

Lin Xiaohu walked with Guo Maomao, and introduced to her the story he had heard about the Houshan Grandma Temple. Guo Maomao stopped from time to time to look at the items on the stall, and seemed very interested.

In fact, the goods displayed in the stalls at the temple fair are not very attractive to the rural people, but attract those who come from the big cities and have never been to the countryside. For example, all kinds of wild fruits, baskets made of various grass leaves, various local Chinese herbs, and some local specialty products. City dwellers have never been

After seeing these things, I bought them out of curiosity, and the reverse folding grid is not expensive.

From the foot of the mountain all the way to the top of the mountain, the horizontal distance must be more than ten miles, and the vertical height must be nearly a thousand meters. At first, Guo Maomao was still walking easily, but when he was halfway through, he said that he couldn't climb. Lin Xiaohu persuaded her that it was easy to come here, how could she get to the top of the mountain to offer incense to her grandmother. Hold on, climb to the top and let's take the cable car down. Guo Maomao looked around, suddenly rolled his eyes, and said, "Then you carry me." ”

Lin Xiaohu knew that it was nothing good for her eyes to roll, and shouted: "Damn, isn't it, do you think my physical fitness is much better than yours?" I'm running out of breath either. Guo Maomao smiled like a girl in love, and begged: "It's okay to carry me for a while, I'm really bored." When I recover, I'll carry you on my back. ”

Isn't this a lie to a three-year-old? Lin Xiaohu burned high incense without carrying her, how dare he let him follow such a steep mountain road? However, Lin Xiaohu was also happy with this kind of beauty, so he responded and let her lie on her back, hooked her thin legs with both hands, and climbed up hard.

When it comes to the characteristics of the grandmother temple, it is not that there are many tourists, nor that there are many vendors from all over the world, but the incense here. As small as a foot-length, you can grab a pack of short incense with one hand; There is a nine-meter-long high incense that needs to be fixed with aluminum alloy and carried back and forth by two men to the top of the mountain. Along the way, you can see, all temples, no matter big or small, are full of piles of incense ashes outside the door, some are still burning, and some are only smoking. When I climbed to the mountain, there were even people burning incense outside the main hall -- stacking all kinds of incense to form a mountain, and then lighting it from the bottom, and it became a volcano in an instant, and the scene was very shocking, and you could feel the heat in the mountain wind from a distance of about ten meters.

Along the way, Lin Xiaohu was not idle, he donated some money when he met the temple, and then received two red blessing belts with a blessing taste from the management of the temple. This is also one of the characteristics of the Grandma Temple, it can be said that if you don't have a few red ribbons wrapped around your waist and head when you go back, you are embarrassed to say that you visited the Grandma Temple.

Of course, you could say that there is a certain superstition tinge to this. But from ancient times to the present, which Chinese people are not superstitious? Even if modern society and science and technology are so developed, people should not be superstitious in theory, right? But superstition is better than in ancient times. If nothing else, you can see it just by looking at the vigorous incense of the four famous Buddhist and Taoist mountains in China. Speaking of which, it is still the state that has neglected the construction of morality and spirit while vigorously developing the economy. People have no faith in their heads, and can only rely on the protection of this ethereal god.

On the way, Lin Xiaohu and Guo Maomao sat on the rocks on the side of the road and rested more than ten times, and the incense was burned, and Lin Xiaohu and her were wrapped with all kinds of red ribbons. There are some of them he begged for the ladies around him, some for his family, and one for my car - a request for safety while driving.

When he arrived at the main temple on the top of the mountain, looking at the statue of the kind and kind grandmother, Guo Maomao asked someone to burn a high incense, and then lay on the futon and worshiped a few times, babbling in her mouth, and she didn't know what blessing she was asking for.

Even if you have visited the temple fair at the top, the next thing is naturally to go back to the city.

Lin Xiaohu and people like her, who have not exercised for a long time, have a sore waist and limbs when they climb up, and their lower limbs are weak, and when they go down, their calves begin to tremble. I really had no choice but to buy a ticket and take the cable car down.

After worshipping grandma, Guo Maomao seemed to be in a much better mood, sitting in the cable car, holding hands with him, muttering funny things.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

Lin Xiaohu took the opportunity to ask her what she had begged her grandmother for just now. Guo Maomao's expression darkened, and he said, "I asked my father for peace and auspiciousness." ”

Lin Xiaohu said with a smile: "Your father is a provincial boss, and in his realm, he can't be safe and auspicious." ”

Guo Maomao laughed and said, "You are purely a small people's thought. From the perspective of the common people, he is powerful, prosperous and wealthy, and can be happy and worry-free in the next life. But you don't know, he also has his problems. Alas, there is no trouble to save anywhere. ”

When it came to this topic, both of them were not in a good mood, so they began to be silent. Take the cable car to the halfway up the mountain, and then the two slowly walked down, returned to the parking lot to pay the parking fee, and returned the same way after getting on the bus.

After a while, I returned to the side of the national highway in the north of the town. Lin Xiaohu looked sideways, but saw that there were many people gathered on the ground in the industrial park, he was slightly stunned, pointed over there and said, "Look, what's wrong over there?" Guo Maomao glanced at it, broke the steering wheel, and said, "Go over and take a look." ”

When Lin Xiaohu and Guo Maomao came closer, they were stunned by the scene in front of them.

A group of young and strong bald men, carrying steel pipes, vices, wooden sticks and other weapons in their hands, stood in the middle of the park with murderous spirit, shouting loudly. There are scattered construction equipment on the ground around, and there are several people lying on the ground not far away, and the red ground next to them seems to be blood, which is shocking. A group of people from the construction party led by Zhou Jianhua also gathered together and were confronting this group of bald men.

Lin Xiaohu's heart sank, and he said that Li Zhixin's revenge came so quickly, pushed the car door and walked down. Guo Maomao followed and got out of the car.

I heard these people with weapons shouting loudly: "Grass and mud horses, ** not allowed to start work is not allowed to start work, how can there be so many why?" "Get out, you have three days to get out of here. If you don't get out, Lao Tzu will help you. "Damn, we dare to be so crazy when the provincial city comes, Lao Tzu hates the people in the big city the most."

Lin Xiaohu stepped forward and asked Zhou Jianhua, "Manager Zhou, what's wrong?" ”

Zhou Jianhua said to him with a straight face: "Mayor Lin, I don't know how you do public security in the county, how did you let these people come to our factory to smash it in broad daylight?" The most infuriating thing is that I have been calling the police for a long time, and I haven't seen a single policeman. ”

Lin Xiaohu sighed secretly in his heart, and said in his heart If you see the police, it would be strange, Li Zhixin dared to send someone to blatantly come over to smash and obstruct, then he must have greeted the county bureau, and the county bureau would naturally not send the police over. Even if you have to come, you will definitely delay the time.

Lin Xiaohu said apologetically: "It's the work in the town that hasn't done a good job, which has frightened you." Wait a minute, I'll call someone from the town police station right away. With that, Lin Xiaohu dialed Yang Jian's mobile phone.

Yang Jian's mobile phone was actually turned off, Lin Xiaohu instantly felt bad, and was secretly shocked in his heart, this Li Zhixin really didn't make a move, and he had already planned everything before he made a move. It seems that he not only greeted the county bureau, but also said to Yang Jian. Otherwise, as Yang Jian, the director of a police station, how often does he have contact with people on weekdays, how could he turn off his phone in broad daylight?

Zhou Jianhua saw Lin Xiaohu's embarrassed face, and said firmly: "Mayor Lin, you have to settle this matter for us." Otherwise, we won't be able to do it at all. When the time comes, you can only collect the team and go back, delaying the construction of your industrial park, don't blame us. ”
