It has been raining for days, the wet and cold air seems to penetrate the ** into the bone marrow, the weather forecast is cloudy on Tuesday for a week, and there is rain in everything else. After thinking about it for a long time, it is better to go out for a walk. The itinerary is set to see the Jishan Plum Garden first, then take the Xiaoshao Ancient Road, and visit Longhua Temple and Tushi Heavenly Palace in the afternoon. I don't have high expectations for the Yoshiyama Plum Garden, and I am not interested in the temple, but I am very interested in this ancient road.

Set off from the city for more than an hour to the Jishan Plum Garden, the red plum in the plum garden has passed the full flowering period, on the bare branches, there are a few sparse flowers that are about to wither, a few late-blooming green calyxes, in the green buds, drill out of the white plum blossoms, particularly eye-catching. As far as the eye can see, the plum garden no longer has the expectation of full blooming, and the red and white dots are no longer flowers. Around the trail around the mountain, for the scenery of the plum garden, I can't lift the camera, just as the activity of the muscles, after a while, drive to the next stop, Xiao Shao Ancient Road.

Xiao Shao Ancient Road refers to the ancient road from Huajiadian Village, Xiaoshan Evolution Town to Liandong Village, Xialu Town, Keqiao, Shaoxing, less than 5 kilometers, climbing 188 meters, the distance is not long, and the climb is not high. Shaoxing County was called Shanyin County in ancient times, Xiaoshan Evolution Town and part of Linpu Town used to belong to Shaoxing, evolution, Linpu people into Shaoxing City, to evolve over Kanpoling to Xia Lulian East Village, and then from Majiachi to the ancient city ridge, go down to the lake pond to take a boat to Shaoxing, so Xiaoshao Ancient Road is also called Shanyin Ancient Road.

There are many legends in Huiji Mountain, in the Spring and Autumn Period, the battle of Wu Yue, after the defeat of Yue, the king of Yue Goujian took a fancy to the majestic and dangerous pass of this mountain, led 5,000 remnants of the soldiers to preserve their strength here, and tasted the courage of lying on the salary, and the soldiers of the habitat "practiced three times in summer, and practiced three nine in winter", and the soldiers were rested and trained for ten years, and the Yue soldiers were "strong and elite, and then went out of the mountain to defeat the Wu State". Yue Wang Zheng is located in the west of Shaoxing Xia Lu Town and Xiaoshan Suoqian Town border, commonly known as Yue Wang Village. The Shenyun Temple on the top of Yue Wang Zheng, also called Yue Wang Temple, the temple was built in the third year of the Yuan Dynasty, expanded at the end of the Ming Dynasty, and rebuilt in the Qing Dynasty. Caoshan Temple was built in the Northern Song Dynasty during the Qiande period, the Qing Dynasty Shunzhi three years, rebuilt, and Caoshan Temple is not far from the mountain road on the side of the Xiaoshao Ancient Road, Kanpoling is now the watershed of Xiaoshan and Shaoxing, and it is also the commanding height of the ancient road. At that time, the Yunju Nunnery on the Kanpoling Ridge, the 200-step ancient well of the nuns in the nunnery was not far from the Shaoxing side of the Kanpoling on the ancient road.

In front of a bamboo forest at the entrance of Xiao Shao Ancient Road, there is a big stone engraved with the word "Zhiyuan" with a seal, the pavilion along the road is very well trimmed, and the bamboo forest, the trees set off each other, the ground is paved with stones, and the road surface is simple and complete. After days of rain and damp ground, gloomy weather, walking through the bamboo forest and tree shade on the ancient road, quiet and mysterious, quite a little simple and legendary. Raising his eyes into the distance, he suddenly saw the figures of Li Mubai and Yu Jiaolong floating on the bamboo, closed his eyes and listened, and the shouts of the fighting of King Yue's training came from the dense forest of Kanpoling.

Out of the dense forest is Liandong Village, a stream passes through the village, the stream water coming down the mountain is very clear, several village women wash clothes and vegetables by the stream, the village is clean and tidy, and the new tall archway at the entrance of the village is very magnificent. A group of us passed through the village, and several old people greeted us with their gazes, all the way to disappearing into the winding alleys.

It takes about 15 minutes to drive from Liandong Village to Longhua Temple, which is located on two adjacent hilltops, aiming to create two pure land concepts in heaven and on earth, and the grand and majestic buildings echo each other from afar. According to reports, the idea of Tushi Tiangong comes from the Buddhist cosmology, Tushi Tian is the fourth layer of heaven in the world of desire, among them, as the inner courtyard of the Tushi Heavenly Palace in the Maitreya Dharma realm, it is the place where the future Buddha Maitreya Bodhisattva speaks for the heavens and people. Tushi is a transliteration of Sanskrit, which is translated as joyful heaven, joyful and contented heaven, and is the most special pure land in the world of desire. The pedestal of Tushi Heavenly Palace is a seven-fold treasure wall, the base is wide, and the periphery is surrounded by a white marble railing, like seven layers of white clouds supporting the giant lotus; The inner courtyard of Tushi Heavenly Palace is the world's largest indoor seated Buddha, a 33-meter-high statue of Maitreya in the crown; The giant purple gold lotus at the top of the Heavenly Palace can also be called the world's largest, the lotus is resplendent in gold, there is a good law hall that can accommodate thousands of people, it can be described as a magnificent masterpiece, and the story is also very complete.

Coming out of the Tushi Heavenly Palace, I want to go to the big Xianglin to see, and I met three local hiking sisters on the way, and the big sister said that the big Xianglin has several huge ancient osmanthus trees, and the blooming season is better, and I have to go back after seeing it, so I gave up. Looking back, I saw a few low yellow walls in the bamboo forest, walked through a vegetable garden, Baolin New Nunnery and Baolin Zen Temple, and came into view. The nunnery is very quiet, except for seeing the clothes drying to show that there are people living in it, I walked around, and I didn't encounter it, the main hall is dedicated to the thousand-armed Guanyin, the pure place of Buddhism, it is inconvenient to disturb excessively.

Out of the Baolin New Nunnery, to the next door of the Baolin Temple, the temple courtyard is full of huge candles, an old monk alone, asking: "How long can a big candle be lit?" The old monk said, "You can spend more than a month." There is a stele next to it, the inscription has been blurred, vaguely see the book to build the temple in 1300 years, presumably in the Sui Dynasty, Guangxu 13 years to repair. The old monk asked us to go in and worship, and then took out a ** hibiscus plum and gave each of the four of us a big handful.

Slowly turning back to the large parking lot in front of Longhua Temple, I got in the car and shared Furong Mei with my companions.

The sky gradually darkened, and after an hour, I arrived at the spacious city road, and the car taillights were densely red and flowed forward slowly, and the traffic was like flowing water like a peer.
