Chapter 497: A Couple Met by Chance



Feng Wuyou was well versed in the ways of the world. He handed Yun Luo a piece of paper and said, "Soon, I will give Liu Xun a holiday. The three of us will disperse and avoid the eyes of the Apostles of Nature."

Yun Luo looked at the piece of paper and found that it was a record of the star Siren taking a plane and arriving in Tamsui City, Formosa Province three days ago. There was also a record of a cover photo shoot arranged for Siren by a major Chinese magazine, and the location was in Tamsui City. Feng Wuyou also wrote a line of handwritten words, which meant that the magazine's cover photo had been taken, the photographer had left Tamsui City, and even the famous hotel where Siren was staying was recorded.

"Don't worry, the records above are all true. I have already taken the cover photo of the Siren for you, and it will be on the magazine cover this month. Liu Xun won't know. I arranged for her to come here just to accompany you. You can never have enough fun with two men, me and Bai Qi."

(Top Novel Mobile Edition) Feng Wuyou is a very elegant man, with the grace of a son of an aristocratic family. He is also very experienced in pimping.

Yun Luo looked at Feng Wuyou strangely. Feng Wuyou smiled silently. "The matter of hunting the apostles of nature is already on track. Since we returned to Tamsui City, we have entered the countdown. We also have a level nine helper who has arrived and is already preparing in secret, just waiting for the rain. We don't have a fixed time. You can come to Tamsui University at 7 o'clock on a rainy night to kill people."

Yun Luo was indifferent to what Feng Wuyou was planning. But since Feng Wuyou had made this arrangement, Yun Luo didn't care much. Perhaps in Feng Wuyou's mind, Bai Qi was very difficult to figure out, and was far less useful than Yun Luo, a genius evolver whose whereabouts were known. Feng Wuyou didn't care whether the sword demon appeared in the final battle.

Smiling coldly, the sword demon wearing a blue-striped ape mask disappeared quietly.

That afternoon, Yunluo, who was drinking tea in a room with ethnic flavor in the B&B, waited for Liu Xun's crisp knock on the door. As for how Feng Wuyou had intentionally or unintentionally asked Liu Xun to come to find the mermaid, Yunluo didn't care. If he didn't have this little trick, he wouldn't be Feng Wuyou, the proud son of heaven.

Yunluo accompanied Liuxun around the treasure island. It was as if the upcoming decisive battle had nothing to do with the sword demon. Liuxun might be very happy to be with Yunluo because it was rare for her to be together. Unlike in West Lake City, she always felt very happy when An Chuyu was around.

The first place we went to was the Forbidden City. The treasure of the museum, "Pork and Cabbage Pot", was divided into two exhibition rooms on the left and right of the staircase. The meat-shaped stone and the jade cabbage were on the right, and the Maogong Ding was on the left. When Yunluo Liuxun went up, there were not many people. Fortunately, we rented an audio guide. Otherwise, all the attention of the foodies would be on the imagination of the taste buds.

It was a great viewing experience, and it is no exaggeration to say that it is a work of art, but unfortunately, the tour groups soon came in with all kinds of small hats. I heard that the Palace Museum is crowded during the day, and you have to wait for two hours to see Dongpo pork.

After watching the "Pork and Cabbage Hot Pot", I took a look at the "Nuclear Boat Story" in the junior high school Chinese textbook. It was much smaller than I imagined. I could only barely see with the help of a magnifying glass that "the man in the tall hat and thick beard is Dongpo". I was filled with emotion. Thousands.

Yun Luo casually looked at some calligraphy and paintings, porcelain and jade, and originally wanted to just take a quick look. Who knew that a certain gentleman had real taste, and took away all the exquisite items in a hurry. Once he stopped at a booth, he had to keep listening. It is true that the Forbidden City in Beijing "has a palace but no treasures", and the Forbidden City in Tamsui "has treasures but no palaces".

It's a pity that we can't take pictures, and it's a good thing that we can't take pictures. Otherwise, it would be difficult to calm down and enjoy a historical journey in the flashing lights. I would also like to thank the staff of the Forbidden City for their gentle words and whispering reminders, creating and maintaining such a quiet and beneficial viewing atmosphere.

In the end, Liu Xun's rumbling stomach prevailed. Yun Luo and his girlfriend were chatting about "Ru kiln porcelain, Qianlong's calligraphy, and the jade goddess of the Neolithic Age." The two guys who claimed to have some literary and artistic knowledge pretended to be regretful and reluctant to leave. They turned around and quickly took a taxi to Shilin Night Market.

It is very convenient to take a taxi in Tamsui City, but the fare is expensive. A journey that costs only 20 yuan in Beijing costs about 40 yuan here. It is said that the longer the journey, the more cost-effective it is. Then came the Witch Shop. For this famous specialty literary coffee shop, pseudo-literary youths came to join in the fun with the intention of trying something new.

There was a performance to watch, and a free drink was provided. It was said that if a witch passed the level, she would get a 10% discount if she could do 10 push-ups, and an 20% discount if she could do 20 push-ups. This was only for girls. Yunluo Liuxun was half an hour late, and the first performer had already started. She didn't want to disturb others, so she stayed in the entrance for a while.

Various posters, performance information, and postcards were randomly scattered on the wooden racks, giving off a strong literary and artistic atmosphere. Yunluo looked through the glass on the wooden door and saw witch dolls of all sizes hanging from the ceiling, as well as chairs with women's bras hanging on them. He didn't recognize the second singer, but he sang really well and was handsome.

The slightly restrained atmosphere suddenly became lively, especially the brother with a PhD from National Taiwan University who played the accordion, piano and violin. He was a bit naive, but when he got into the music, he was extremely intoxicated, which made people laugh - talented people are naturally charming.

Despite my mental preparation, I was still shocked when I got the famous menu at the blinding counter. I can't list them here. Harmony is the best. Interested friends can check it online. The free drink did not include "special iced tea", so I had to drink a bottle of beer. Since the original intention of trying something new was achieved, I quietly left before nightfall.

When it comes to witches, people always think of an old, ugly, fat woman who treats men as tools. This is just a distorted myth. In fact, there are many witches around Yunluo Liuxun. They are not necessarily fat or thin, beautiful or ugly, but they are full of energy and their eyes are shining with confidence.

Be brave enough to put forward your own opinions, do not be afraid of suppression from powerful forces, do not be afraid of being excluded by the mainstream, and exist confidently and freely.

When you take the MRT to Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall, the first thing you see is Liberty Square. On either side of the square are the National Opera House and the National Concert Hall. Opposite the square is Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall. The National Opera House and the Concert Hall are both ancient Chinese buildings with glazed tiles and red walls. They contrast with the blue and white Liberty Square and Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall, creating a wonderful sense of integration.

What is even more surprising is that in front of the majestic Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall, there is a canopy for a farm product exhibition, and there are indigenous people singing and dancing to the sound system. In such a solemn place, can the people of Taiwan be more serious? ! Where are the urban management? Where are the urban management?

I came to the Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall mainly for the Crazy Dali Exhibition. After listening to the 47 works carefully with headphones, Yunluo felt that he had taken another step towards becoming a true literary youth.

Although some of his works are incomprehensible, Dali is a rare surrealist who is worthy of appreciation. The limp clocks, crazy dreams, flaming red lips, and all kinds of fantastic paintings and sculptures make people marvel at the imagination of this madman while having a magical experience of being in a desolate but sunny world.

Longshan Temple is two stops west of Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall. The temple itself is not big, but it is very popular and has a variety of offerings. It must be very effective. So Yunluo and Liuxun sincerely burned incense, kowtowed, and made a wish, hoping to get the "92nd best fortune, Li Gu said that willow juice dyes clothes". If they get what they wished for, it would be the best excuse to go to Taiwan again.

Unlike worshipping in mainland China, the temples here do not charge admission, and the burning of incense, drawing of divination sticks, and interpretation of divination sticks are all free. When there are many people, there will be people to guide the crowd. After worshipping, someone will also whisper to you, "Do more good deeds, and you will have a peaceful life." The scene of everyone reciting Buddhist scriptures together is the first time I have ever seen it, holding sutras in their hands. Standing or kneeling, they all face the Buddha statue. Their faces are full of piety.

The chanting rhythm was similar and uniform. Although I couldn't understand it, for a moment, Yunluo really felt that there were gods in the high sky, overlooking the sentient beings in the world... Amitabha. Do more good deeds.

If we say that in today's tour, Tamsui City, with its humanities, modernity, exquisiteness and convenience, has made Yunluo fade away its shadow, then standing on the streets of Ximending, this is where young people gather and is famous for its fashion. But it is correspondingly messy and of poor quality, and the food is mainly snacks and noodles.

I was hungry all day and wanted to have a good meal, so I searched Dianping on my phone and found a "Meimen Inn" that seemed to be a decent place to eat. I followed the map and found that it was indeed a decent place to eat - the waiter was very kind, the environment and the food were good, but, it was just vegetarian here! How could I be so lucky!

You know, Yunluo Liuxun came with a bag of braised duck wings and duck necks! During the meal, he kept looking for an opportunity to take a piece of meat and put it in his mouth, but he didn't dare to do it rashly. So in the end, the proprietress asked Yunluo with a smile if he usually ate vegetarian food. Yunluo held the meat in his hand tightly, smiled and said yes.

Back in An's room, I turned on the TV and saw a master talking about Buddhism. I changed the channel and found that Buddhism was still being promoted, but with a different master. I have a great affinity with Buddhism today. Amitabha, I quickly entered into meditation. Yunluo hugged Liuxun, all right!

The next day, I woke up naturally, checked out, and went to Shilin Residence. Shilin Residence is located on Fulin Road, Shilin District, Tamsui City. It was once chosen by Mr. Chiang as his residence because of its quiet environment, beautiful scenery and convenient transportation. It was once a unique place, but now it is just a large garden.

Friends who don't have enough time don't have to go. When Yun Luoliuxun went there, the mansion was being renovated, so he just sat in the garden for a while. To put it nicely, he saw the lush flowers and trees that cast shades over the sky and the boundless white clouds. To put it bluntly, he didn't see anything.

Today we stayed at Shui Mei Hot Spring Hotel. Beitou is famous for its hot springs, and there are numerous hot spring hotels of all sizes. Shui Mei is a relatively standard one, and is favored by many locals. Yunluo booked a superior room in the summer discount package in advance, which comes with a hot spring pool, or you can go to the public pool, which is separated by men and women.

However, the receptionist stressed that we had to bathe naked, and Yunluo thought it was really unrestrained. Liuxun and I came out of Shuimei and walked up the tree-lined path. In turn, we came to the elegant library, the Red House Hot Spring Museum, and the geothermal valley with gusts of smoke.

There may not be any famous attractions here, nor is it a regular tourist route, but soaking your feet in the open-air hot springs under the fresh blue sky and white clouds, with a simple and gentle state of mind, recalls the vague childhood memories and the long-lost years of peace. In the travel, perhaps the most precious thing is this moment of peace...

"Sitting by the Tamsui River, listening to her favorite, putting the warmth back in her pocket" The song "Grandma" made Liu Xun's favorable impression on Tamsui increase dramatically. It was a pity that they went there a little late. They could still see the round sunset with warm light on the MRT, but when they ran out of the MRT and rushed to the Tamsui River, the sunset had already sunk. Yunluo hurriedly took a few photos of Liu Xun to accompany the scene.

I ate the famous fish balls and A-gei in Tamsui Old Street, but I really felt that they were just so-so. A-gei is a snack for local fishermen, with vermicelli wrapped in fried tofu, sweet and salty. Many people came here because of its reputation, causing the old shop to be overcrowded. Because Yunluoliu arrived too late.

I didn’t see any of the Little White House, Fort San Domingo, Aletheia University, or Tamkang High School where the movie “Secret” was filmed. My plan to ride a bike on the riverside boardwalk was also shelved. I could only take a boat to Fisherman’s Wharf to see the night view, and then take bus No. 2 back to the MRT station. This was the first regret of the trip!

The night view of the Lovers' Bridge at Fisherman's Wharf is very beautiful. Legend has it that if a man and a woman can walk hand in hand across the Lovers' Bridge, they will be together forever. Yunluo couldn't help but talk about the MRT in Formosa. The operating hours are from 6:00 to midnight, and the fare is charged by distance. It is more expensive than in Beijing, but Yunluo does not hide his admiration for the Formosa MRT.

Unlike the Beijing subway, which is eager to put advertisements on the ceiling, the Formosa MRT will leave a lot of space for young people and social groups to display calligraphy and painting. I stopped to watch many children's works, which was great. It is a rare experience of humanistic care in the mainland. The MRT service desk is open, with a round low cabinet, and communication is pleasant and smooth. There is no security check when entering the station.

The carriages are very quiet and clean. Drinking water is prohibited. The dark priority seats are always empty. Young people will not sit there even if they have to stand. The unique MRT carriages and stations always bring surprises. For example, the Jimmy paintings at Nangang Station, the hot spring carriages, and the Formosa Boulevard MRT Station in Kaohsiung.

Qingjing Farm was originally a public enterprise operated by the Formosa Veterans Affairs Association. It was originally named Jianqing Farm. A certain gentleman thought that this place had "fresh air for you to enjoy and the scenery was elegant like a fairyland", so he changed the name to "Qingjing Farm" and it has been used until now. Now it has become one of the favorite holiday destinations for the people of Formosa.

Puli is a transit station, and there are no attractions to see. Towards Xinyi is Sun Moon Lake, and to Songgang and Cuifeng is Cingjing Farm and Hehuan Mountain. Yunluo Liuxun decided to charter a car to go to Sun Moon Lake, which was not planned. The round trip took less than an hour, and Yunluo Liuxun still had an hour to visit this famous attraction which is said to be not as big as Bayi Lake.

The ticket seller was really enthusiastic. With his mouth full of red betel nut, he helped Yun Luoliuxun contact the taxi driver. "Don't worry, it's a licensed taxi, and you have to find a driver you know. Your girlfriend is so cute, it would be bad if she met a bad person."

Yunluo knelt down. The word "cute" could be used to describe Liu Xun's sudden appearance, which made Yunluo feel inappropriately moved.

The elementary school textbooks played a big role in this. More than 80% of the tourists in Sun Moon Lake are from mainland tour groups. Therefore, the order in which the ticket seller and the chartered car driver asked Yun Luo and Liu Xun where they were from was the same... Yun Luo had to complain about this chartered car driver. He was a man in his forties with a cheerful face. He was very nice at the beginning, enthusiastic and proactive.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

In order to show that the one-way fare is open and transparent, he took the initiative to show Yunluo Liuxun the list of government-guided prices. He also took the initiative to take Yunluo Liuxun to the old lady's house to buy the famous tea eggs, and was also very enthusiastic when introducing the scenic spots.

Then, the uncle began to exclaim about the beauty of Sun Moon Lake. Yunluo didn't take it seriously at first and echoed him, although he felt that the scenery at Elephant Mountain was just so-so and far inferior to West Lake. If you can ride around Sun Moon Lake along one of the top ten most beautiful bicycle paths in the world at dawn and dusk, and feel the changing light and the freshness of the morning mist, it would be a different story.

But when taking pictures, Yunluo felt something was wrong. The driver kept urging Yunluo Liuxun to take pictures here and there, using Yunluo Liuxun's camera and then his camera. He even drove straight to the cruise ship dock to ask Yunluo Liuxun to take pictures without Yunluo Liuxun's consent.

The only thing that was worth affirming was that he still sent Yun Luo Liuxun to the station on time. The ticket seller was already waiting for Yun Luo Liuxun, hurriedly taking the luggage and buying the ticket. Could Yun Luo swear? No, so Yun Luo had nothing to say.

It was just in time for the Puli Elementary School students to finish school, and when Yunluo Liuxun got on the bus, there were no seats left. The local children all had dark skin and clear eyes. Although they were noisy, they were also simple and interesting. In particular, a boy was holding a Samsung mobile phone and playing an unknown song. Several little boys were listening to it attentively. It must be a popular song. It was very trendy.

After standing for more than ten minutes, some children got off the bus. Yun Luoliuxun quickly sat down, and then the children began to get off the bus one after another. However, an hour later, there were still children on the bus. It seems that it is really not easy for children in the mountains to go to school.

The road up the mountain was very rugged and steep. Looking out along the mountain road, the cliffs were high and the valleys were deep, surrounded by clouds and mist. The fog was very heavy that night, and it even rained. It made Yunluo Liuxun's heart wet - it would not be beautiful if it rained tomorrow.

The owner of Junyi B&B was enthusiastic but not excessive, and gave Yunluo Liuxun a detailed introduction to attractions, accommodation, meals, etc. The house was clean and bright, and each room had a balcony with a view. The location and scenery were commendable, and the breakfast was quite acceptable for a B&B.

As Yunluo Liuxun went up the mountain too late, the plan to visit the famous homestay area and have a cup of coffee at the old England castle was ruined. However, when the homestay owner drove Yunluo Liuxun to the green grassland, I had a quick glance at the various buildings with different European styles. If I had time to visit them one by one, it would be a good experience.

As for the Swiss Garden, I strongly do not recommend it. I have no idea that this small and artificial flower garden has anything to do with Switzerland. The gimmick in the evening is the water dance. The name is so foreign that I feel helpless after taking a look at it. Where have you not seen water spraying?

There will be regrets in any journey. Yunluo and Liuxun agreed that the biggest regret of this trip to Treasure Island came unexpectedly today. In fact, Yunluo and Liuxun got up early and set the alarm clock at 5 o'clock to watch the sunrise. They got up two or three times and ran to the balcony. In the end, except for a few wisps of mist formed by water vapor, there was no shadow of the sun.

Later, Yunluo resolutely wrapped himself in the quilt and refused to come out. Liuxun was resistant to the cold and stood on the balcony for a while. Then he ran in trembling. When Yunluo and Liuxun saw the photos of another group of people forwarded by Baodao Free Travel, they were dumbfounded: on the same day when they stayed at Junyi B&B, they got up at 3:30 and chartered a car to go to Hehuan Mountain to watch the sunrise.

The result was so beautiful, so beautiful, so beautiful! I saw the quilt-like clouds flashing with golden light. The sun rose slowly and was within reach. It seemed that people were standing on the top of the clouds. Yunluo Liuxun wailed. If I didn't get up early, it would be fine. The key is that I didn't see the beautiful scenery after all the trouble. What a gap. People are afraid of comparison!

After breakfast, Yunluo Liuxun went to Qingqing Grassland. It took more than two hours to walk down from the top of the mountain. The scenery was not very beautiful or spectacular. Especially the sheep, which completely overturned Yunluo's previous impression. Never underestimate the desire of sheep for food and the impact of strong sheep.

When Red Taro didn't buy feed, he chased the sheep; when Red Taro bought feed, a bunch of sheep chased him. In particular, buying feed is automatic coin-operated, and you need to take a paper bag to receive it at the exit.

Emma, ​​a bunch of sheep were blocking the feed outlet with their mouths. If it weren't for an uncle who offered to help, Yunluo and his daughter would have pulled a strong sheep back and couldn't get the feed out. When the uncle handed Yunluo the paper bag full of feed, Yunluo turned around and ran, and a few sheep chased after him unwillingly.

Liuxun said that she had been hearing Yunluo screaming on the slope, and she thought something tragic had happened. If you want to see the sheep strip show, you have to come on weekends. On weekdays, there are only Russian equestrian and Ukrainian clown performances. This is for the little friends to watch. Yunluo and Liuxun didn't think it was very interesting. They kept discussing these Russian handsome men and beautiful women who were circled here. Aren't they bored because they missed home?

After watching the equestrian show, we went down the mountain directly, because it takes at least three hours to go from Qingjing to Puli and then to Taichung. I originally planned to go to Alishan in the afternoon, but later I felt that it was too rushed, so I decided to stay in Taichung for one night. Taichung is the birthplace of motels, and I originally wanted to try it. I also compared several very sexy hotels, and I was eager to go.

In the end, the desire to sleep overwhelmed the attraction of new things - the motel could only be checked in after 11 o'clock in the evening, and it would take at least 1 o'clock in the morning to take a shower and go to bed. Liu Xun couldn't bear it.

I got a Taichung travel brochure from the tourist information desk, found a business hotel near the station and stayed there, and quickly took a nap. When Yunluo Liuxun arrived at Tunghai University, which is known as the university with the most beautiful scenery in Taiwan, it was almost dark, so I really didn’t know how beautiful the scenery was. I only visited the iconic Luce Memorial Chapel in the dark.

Standing at the door of the church, looking around, wondering if I could get in, a college boy came out and smiled and invited Yun Luoliuxun in. The three girls in front of me were still shyly pushing each other, probably because the administrator was too handsome, but the more this happened, the more I had to walk in decisively.

When I was actually sitting in the church, listening to the religious music and reading the Bible, I felt a sense of closeness and awe in my heart. Unlike the noisy and smoky temples, the church is quiet and makes people reflect on themselves. When I came out of the church, it was already dark. The reflection of light against the dark background was so shocking. The Luce Memorial Chapel designed by I.M. Pei brought people a kind of quiet and powerful beauty.

"True light is not a time without darkness, but a time when it is never obscured by darkness." It was beyond his expectation that he could think of this sentence at this moment. Many setbacks made Yunluo almost come to the treasure island with a desire to escape, and for a reason that Yunluo was unwilling to admit.

Standing here, Yunluo suddenly had a feeling: Never expect others to bring you light, and don't blame others for the temporary darkness. Believe in everything, choose good and be persistent, and light comes from the heart! No matter how bright your heart is, hunger is an indisputable fact. I took a taxi to the Fengjia Night Market, which is known as the largest night market in Taiwan. As expected, my stomach felt better and my heart felt even better.

Having learned from previous experience, I dare not wake up naturally today. If I can't catch the bus to Alishan, Yunluo Liuxun can commit suicide. After getting off the Chiayi High Speed ​​Rail Station, I asked the tourist information desk that I don't need to go to the city to take the Zhonghua Express. The small train to the mountain has stopped operating after the accident. There is a direct bus to Alishan at the station.

After arriving at the place, Yunluo found that the room was very clean and had all the necessary supplies. The only downside was that the soundproofing was too poor. At night, he could hear clearly the noise in the corridor and the conversations in the next room, causing Yunluo to suffer from insomnia, which was a rare occurrence.

At 2pm, Shenmu Hotel will have its own tour guide to take Yunluo Liuxun on a tour. The tour guide is a middle-aged literary man who speaks slowly and likes to ask questions and answer them himself. Yunluo Liuxun is traveling with a mother and daughter from Danshui City and a family of three from Hong Kong, including a girl and her parents.

Although the tour guide is sensitive and old-fashioned, his pride in the tour guide profession and his love for Alishan are beyond words. I learned a lot from following him for 3 hours. The fate of the sacred trees of Alishan, from 300,000 to only 36, is really sad. The Japanese finally built a tree spirit tower because of their inner anxiety, but at the same time they erected a monument to honor the discoverers. They are really a greedy, shameless, but highly executive perverted nation!

In many independent travel friends' itineraries, Alishan is just an alternative, but after seeing the sacred tree, the sea of ​​clouds, and the sunset, Yunluo sincerely believes that staying a night in Alishan is a must-do on the itinerary! If you go during the cherry blossom season in March or April, taking the red train to travel under the cherry blossoms is so romantic that it hurts your liver.

After August and September, the chances of the sea of ​​clouds appearing increased greatly, so Yunluo Liuxun was lucky enough to see the sunset at Ciyun. I never thought that the sunset could be so spectacular and gorgeous. As the sun set, the clouds rolled like waves, and the clouds changed colors. The beauty of the photos was only 20% or 30%. The people on the viewing platform were almost speechless. (To be continued..)
