Chapter Eleven: Fragrant Hills Encounter
The next day, early in the morning, after breakfast.
At the gate of the Astronomy Academy, four people in the dormitory stopped a taxi and set out towards Xiangshan Park.
Deng Xiaochao originally wanted the driver at home to pick him up, but Yuan Shichen thought that Xiangshan Park was not far from the school anyway, so he didn't have to bother the driver to travel all the way, which would make him look more low-key.
Xiangshan Park is located in the western suburbs of Beijing. It has a steep terrain and continuous terrain, covering an area of about 200 hectares. It is a royal garden with mountain and forest characteristics. Xiangshan Park was built in the 26th year of Dading, Jin, and has a history of nearly 900 years.
At this time of year, frost falls, which is a beautiful scenery of Xiangshan. The broken clouds fly down thousands of mountains, and the afterglow is full of the maple forests.
The red leaves of Xiangshan include yellow pine, ingot maple, triangular maple, quinox maple, etc., which can be said to see the red mountains and the forests are dyed.
Because it was a weekend, there were many tourists with great enthusiasm and traffic. The vehicles stopped and walked along the way. When we arrived at the foot of Xiangshan, it was already 9 am.
"Xiangshan is among the famous landscapes of the Qing Dynasty, the three mountains and five gardens. The red leaves of Xiangshan are the most famous. Every autumn, the yellow leaves all over the mountains are as red as flames. The best season to view red leaves from mid-October to early November. Banshan Pavilion, Yuhua Villa and Langfeng Pavilion are all good places to see red leaves." Deng Xiaochao introduced with great interest.
Xiangshan is indeed a place with elegant scenery. Its highest point is Xianglu Peak. There is a huge rock on the top of the peak, called Kufeng Stone. Its appearance resembles an incense burner. From a distance, it looks very similar to the Xianglu Peak in Lushan. People call this mountain Xianglu Peak.
Next, the four people in the dormitory entered the park from the east gate, walked south along the mountain road to the right of Xiangshan Hotel, passed Jingcui Lake, and reached the Shuangqing Villa in the summer resort and the ruins of Xiangshan Temple, which are now only remaining stone yards, stone grades, stone screens, and stone pillars.

"Super Young Master, how many times have you been to Xiangshan?" Yang Yang asked while walking on the stone steps of the mountain road.
"I can't remember it either. I have been organizing school since I was a child, playing with my family, and receiving friends." Deng Xiaochao replied after a brief thought: "The only one who impressed me when I was 10 years old, my grandfather took me here to see the red leaves."
"I heard that your grandfather is an amazing big shot." Zhang Xiaoming said.
"That's right, I have admired him since I was a child..."
While the few people were talking, they arrived at Langfeng Pavilion.
There is a pavilion beside the road, and a sword stone beside the pavilion, with the words "Langfeng" engraved on it. Standing on the pavilion and looking at the west mountain is refreshing.
There are many tourists staying near Langfeng Pavilion. Everyone is looking at the mountains from a distance, hoping to see all the red leaves of the mountains at a glance.
"Well, this is the scene, which is exactly [stop and sit in the maple forest at night, the frost leaves are redder than the flowers in February]." Yang Yang said enthusiastically.
"Ha, this pavilion is not that pavilion. Du Mu's writing is Aiwan Pavilion in Yuelu Mountain, Changsha, which is far from here." Influenced by the romantic scenery in front of him, Yuan Shichen seemed to have forgotten the troubles of studying recently and felt much more relaxed.
"Look, there are a few beauties there, beautiful scenery, and beautiful women, which is really pleasing to the eye!" Zhang Xiaoming suddenly had his eyes lit up, just like he discovered a new continent.
"Yes, even the back of the woman in the middle is full of poetry and painting." Yang Yang Xunji looked at him and immediately agreed.
In the southeast corner of Langfeng Pavilion, a white skirt was dancing in the breeze, and a strand of beautiful black hair fell down like a waterfall, with a beautiful figure.
Although I haven't seen each other, I exuded a fresh and natural atmosphere. I painted it with the red leaves of Xiangshan into a clear and beautiful picture, which is so beautiful.
Yuan Shichen was just stunning, and the woman turned around inadvertently, her pretty and pretty face and agile and clear eyes instantly reflected into his eyes. Although the two were more than ten meters apart, they both smiled faintly after their eyes met. The woman was Chen Shuqin from Hanhai City.
When Yuan Shichen and the other four arrived at Langfeng Pavilion, Chen Shuqin was already waiting there quietly, with a refreshing smile on her face.
"Hello, I didn't expect to meet you here." When he saw his old classmate, Harashi Chen said happily.
"Yes, that's a coincidence." Chen Shuqin said with a smile.
"This is my high school classmate. Her name is Chen Shuqin. She is studying at Peking University. These three are my roommates..." Looking at the shocked people beside her, Yuan Shichen quickly introduced in turn.
"Hello, I'm here to have fun with my roommate today, so I'll introduce it to you too." Chen Shuqin said hello to the two girls beside her.
"This is Wang Yali, this is Lu Qiufang." Chen Shuqin introduced, "This is my high school classmate, Yuan Shichen of Tsinghua University, and the other three are his roommates."
"Zhengchen, I have heard of your name. You are the top scorer in science who scored the full mark!" Wang Yali said with her eyes lit up.
"It's me..." Yuan Shichen replied with a little surprise.
Wang Yali was wearing a bright orange autumn outfit, with a slim figure, slender willow eyebrows, her eyes were full of energy, and a playful smile on her mouth. She looked like a lively and outgoing girl. Although her beauty was not as beautiful as Chen Shuqin, she was one in a hundred.
Unlike Wang Yali, Lu Qiufang looks like a gentle and restrained girl, with a sweet appearance and a light blue outfit, as appropriate as water.
As everyone talked and laughed, they became familiar with each other quickly, so they made an appointment to go together on the next trip.
On the curved mountain road, Deng Xiaochao and Wang Yali were walking in the front.
Young Master Chao was still taciturn and had cool words with bold capital letters on his face, but Wang Yali didn't care about it and talked to Deng Xiaochao without hesitation.
Yang Yang, Zhang Xiaoming and Lu Qiufang were happily talking and walking in the middle.
Yuan Shichen and Chen Shuqin walked quietly at the end. They didn't talk much, but occasionally showed a knowing smile and exchanged their experiences and recent situations in their respective schools.
At noon, everyone took the cableway set up on the top of the Xianglu Peak and went all the way to the north gate.
Under Deng Xiaochao's leadership, everyone went to a very particular restaurant. The lunch was booked long ago and the arrangement was very rich.
After the meal, after discussion, everyone continued to play around.
After one day, we became much closer to each other and left contact information to each other, indicating that we had the opportunity to get together in the future, and then we took the bus back to school separately.
The lights were just around the corner, and the setting sun slowly fell. The night wiped away the last ray of sunshine, and the night fell like a velvet curtain in a theater.
Yuan Shichen and the other four have returned to the Astronomy Academy.
In the dormitory, Yang Yang and Zhang Xiaoming were still talking about what they saw today with great interest.
Deng Xiaochao was still leaning against the bed wearing an earmuff-type headphones, immersing himself in his musical world.
As the night became deeper, Yuan Shichen sat at the desk, slowly closed the books in his hand, thought quietly, and soon he became enlightened...
