Guicheng, located in the southwest of the Dragon Kingdom, is a mysterious and charming land.
Lin Xun and his group's first stop was Zhenyuan Ancient Town.
This is a place where many ethnic groups live together, with a very rich ethnic culture, and the architecture here is very distinctive.
When Lin Xun and his companion arrived, it was evening. What came into view was a winding river, with ancient buildings on both sides of the river, their lights shining like flames at night.
"So beautiful."
Lin Xun was somewhat surprised. He had only seen these pictures online, but he didn't expect to experience such a different feeling in person.
Su Qingshi was also somewhat moved.
The streets were bustling with people; it seemed that these scenic spots were very lively during the holidays.
"The wind that thinks of you has reached Zhenyuan."
Lin Xun found a sentence written on a sign quite interesting.
Su Qingshi was holding a camera and taking pictures.
Lin Xun glanced at her figure, smiled slightly, took out his phone, walked to a suitable distance, and put her and the sign into the frame.
"Senior, look this way."
Upon hearing Lin Xun's words, Su Qingshi subconsciously turned her head. The pale yellow light shone on her, illuminating her with a sacred glow. Just then, a gentle breeze blew from the riverbank, lifting her hair.
For a moment, Lin Xun was stunned.
Not only him, but everyone around who noticed this was also stunned, staring in amazement at this picture-perfect girl.
The image freezes, and Lin Xun successfully captured this moment.
This scene seemed to touch something within him.
In just a few seconds, Su Qingshi realized what was happening and playfully scolded him, "Who told you to take pictures of me without my permission? You look awful."
Lin Xun flipped through the photos, unable to suppress the smile on his face.
Seeing him grinning like a fool, Su Qingshi had a bad feeling and couldn't help but take a step forward and walk over.
Su Qingshi was initially surprised to find that Lin Xun had taken an unflattering photo of her, but upon closer inspection, she discovered that it turned out to be quite good.
Lin Xun looked at her smugly, like a child eager for praise: "How about it? Your husband's photography skills are pretty good, right?"
Upon hearing this, several nearby tourists immediately shook their heads.
I thought this pretty young lady was single; it turns out she's married.
Wow, what incredible luck did this guy have to snag such a beautiful wife?
I won't say who's being jealous.
Su Qingshi pouted smugly: "What do you mean you took good photos? I'm obviously just naturally beautiful."
"Yes, yes, senior is the most beautiful woman in the world," Lin Xun echoed.
Su Qingshi reached out and pinched Lin Xun's waist, saying, "Let's go eat, I'm hungry."
Lin Xun nodded: "Okay, senior, I'll take you out for a big meal."
Su Qingshi shook her head: "I want to eat snacks."
Since we've come all this way, it would be too much of a waste to just eat anything that would satisfy our stomachs. We absolutely have to try some local specialties.
The two strolled hand in hand through the streets. The people there were very welcoming, and several people had already complimented them along the way.
"Wow, you're so pretty!"
"You two are such a perfect match!"
...
Honestly, you're praising me so much it's almost embarrassing.
Lin Xun's lips were curled into a pout.
"It smells so good."
Suddenly, Su Qingshi's eyes lit up as her gaze fell on a small stall.
"Scallion pancakes, would you like some?" Lin Xun asked.
Su Qingshi nodded.
"Boss, how much are the scallion pancakes?" Lin Xun looked at the golden-brown scallion pancakes and felt his appetite increase.
The shop owner said enthusiastically, "Handsome guy, beautiful lady, how many do you want? Three for ten yuan, four yuan each."
Lin Xun looked at Su Qingshi and smiled, "Senior, can you eat two?"
Su Qingshi rolled her eyes at him: "Just a little bit is enough."
Lin Xun chuckled, then said to the shopkeeper, "Boss, we'll take one."
"Alright." The owner nodded with a smile. "You two must be from out of town, right? There's a lot of delicious food here, so save room for the rest."
Lin Xun nodded: "Is the boss a local?"
The shop owner nodded: "Yes, my home is nearby. It's a holiday, so I'm setting up a stall to earn some money."
Upon hearing this, Lin Xun immediately asked, "Does the boss know any fun places around here?"
"There are many fun places to visit. This ancient town is a tourist attraction in itself, and there are many others nearby. You can find them online. But while you're having fun, I have to remind you that the weather here isn't very good and is quite changeable, so please be careful."
The boss was a very honest person, and he talked a lot with Lin Xun and the others.
"Hey handsome, here's your scallion pancake."
"Thanks."
The two left the spot and continued their stroll.
Su Qingshi took a bite of the pancake, and the aroma filled her mouth; it tasted really good.
After taking a couple more bites, she handed the remaining half of the scallion pancake to Lin Xun: "The rest is yours."
Lin Xun chuckled: "Buying one was definitely the right decision."
If you buy two, he'll have to eat one and a half.
The two bought some snacks and ate while playing. Lin Xun discovered that the dumplings here were much tastier than those in Nancheng, probably because there was some unique recipe here.
"Senior, let's go take a boat."
Lin Xun brought Su Qingshi to the dock.
At night, cruise ships shuttle back and forth on the river, which is brightly lit.
They boarded a small boat, and the boatman slowly rowed the oars. The river water flowed gently beside the boat. The boat was open to the elements, and there were not only Lin Xun and his companion on board, but also other tourists. Laughter and cheerful voices filled the air.
Su Qingshi leaned on Lin Xun's shoulder, admiring the night view on both sides of the river, and raised her camera to take a picture of the night view on the opposite bank.
The evening breeze, carrying a hint of dampness, gently brushed against my face, bringing a touch of coolness.
"So beautiful!" a girl behind me exclaimed.
Looking over, everyone saw that the boat was approaching a bridge arch.
Almost everyone stood up and took out their phones to take pictures.
"Sit still! Don't fall into the water!"
The boatman called out.
After the boat moved away from the bridge arch, Lin Xun took out his phone, hugged Su Qingshi, and took a selfie.
After taking a boat ride, Lin Xun led Su Qingshi ashore.
"Senior, where do we go next?"
Lin Xun looked at Su Qingshi, whose face showed a hint of weariness: "I'm tired, I don't want to leave."
Upon hearing this, Lin Xun affectionately pinched her pretty nose and said, "Then let's go back to the hotel."
"Um."
Su Qingshi nodded.
Suddenly, Lin Xun walked up to Su Qingshi, squatted down with his back to her, and said, "Senior, come on up, I'll carry you."
Su Qingshi blushed: "No, there are too many people."
"Don't be afraid, no one will recognize us," Lin Xun said confidently.
This isn't the South City; nobody here knows them.
Su Qingshi's face was full of resistance: "No need, I can still walk a few more steps."
The passersby around them were giving them knowing looks.
This made Su Qingshi's face even hotter.
That stinky Lin Xun will embarrass her!
