Chen Xing got off the plane with a relaxed mood.
But immediately he was confused like everyone else who stepped out of the plane.
"So hot!"
The people are still the same, and the airport is still the same airport. Chen Xing has transferred flights to Shanghai before, and got off the plane in Pudong, but the temperature is not right. Isn't Shanghai supposed to be very livable?
I took out my mobile phone and saw that today’s temperature in Shanghai Pudong area is 41%
OK!
I feel like Paris is hot before I go back to China. This year’s summer in Paris is the hottest in decades. People in the city don’t like to install air conditioners, so the parks are crowded with people coming to cool off this summer.
My mother also said that it is very hot in Sichuan Province now, and the outdoor temperature is higher than last year.
This is quite normal, because Sichuan Province is very hot every summer, and the monsoon in the basin is not easy to blow through, so it would be strange if it is not hot.
But Chen Xing is not worried about them. There are air conditioners both at home and in the store. As his mother is more comfortable with things than herself, she won't make herself miserable at home. She is probably eating watermelon with the air conditioner blowing on right now. But I didn’t expect that Shang Hai would also die.
Fortunately, he came back this time traveling light and simple. If he had brought a lot of stuff with him, Chen Xing really didn’t know if he would still have the desire to travel.
I took off my windbreaker and held it in my hand. After walking out of the airport, I quickly hailed a taxi.
The air conditioning was also turned on inside the taxi. After getting in, it was as comfortable as eating iced Coke. Chen Xing breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Master, go to South Station."
"Okay, handsome guy."
He saw Chen Xing wiping sweat as soon as he came in, and asked: "The weather is a bit hot recently. Is the air conditioner warm enough?"
"That's enough. I'm just not used to it. The weather here is hotter than in my hometown."
The driver was still very talkative, and his tone of voice was very comfortable to listen to. The two chatted about the recent weather. Only then did Chen Xing know that the domestic weather this year was extremely abnormal. The entire south had a high temperature that had not been seen in decades.
.
The weather is extreme, the plateau is warm and high-pressure, Chen Xing was stunned at the various terms used.
Living up to Chen Xing's impression of their group, taxi drivers are indeed very talkative, whether they are from Yanjing or Shanghai.
In ancient times, knights like to go to taverns to inquire about information. In modern times, you can definitely ask taxi drivers.
Chen Xing quickly got on the train.
Perhaps everyone has his or her own opinion on the most beautiful ancient town.
Some of it is because a certain ancient town is his hometown, and some of it is because when traveling in this place, he encounters things, characters, etc. that he will remember for a lifetime. Aiwujiwu likes a place.
Falling in love with a person or a city is normal.
But if you enlarge this most beautiful thing to a hundred, then there will be many places to choose from.
Chen Xing gathered together some of the most famous ancient towns in the Jiangnan area. He won't go home these days, so he will first visit all the ancient towns that he has memorized.
On the high-speed train, Chen Xing used the video on his mobile phone to make a preview.
"Hello everyone, I am Chen Xing. I haven't updated for a long time, but I have said before that I am going to study in France, right? After the vacation, I went to Africa with my teacher and just came back these days."<
/p>
"Opening a new program, the tentative name is 'Looking for the Most Beautiful Ancient Town in China'. The most beautiful is plural, because I will keep looking, so if I haven't been to your hometown, don't worry, maybe you can wait a little longer.
I’ll be here soon?”
"The current coordinates are just out of Shanghai, on the way to Jiangsu and Zhejiang. If you want me to come to your hometown, you can like and vote first, and then leave the name of the ancient town in the comment area. I also look forward to meeting you unexpectedly.
..."
The couple sitting opposite heard what Chen Xing said and secretly took out their mobile phones to confirm. When Chen Xing finished recording the video and was about to send it, they took their mobile phones and asked: "Hello, is this you?"
On her phone was a video that Chen Xing had posted before. It was recorded in Xijiang, the one where he talked about his travel experience.
This episode has almost three million views.
Currently, it is his most popular program.
"It's me, hello."
"Really!
It’s really you, we like you so much, he and I are both your fans.”
Chen Xing smiled and nodded.
He also met a few fans in Arles. Some people even came specifically to see his works. They were photography fans and gave him a lot of snacks. Now he even has lollipops in his bag.
"Thank you for your support. I haven't done anything with my account."
Her boyfriend also said: "The videos you take are better than those taken by other traveling grannies. We went to Xi'an some time ago and went to the restaurant you visited. Do you make this kind of video?"
"I'll do it. I'll take photos of a lot of small shops in Paris later on."
"Paris is too far, and we don't speak foreign languages, but we are planning to save money to go to Thailand, probably next year."
They talked about travel very clearly. They have been to many cities in China, but they are basically short-term trips. They will go for a few days when they both have free time.
"Where are you from?"
"We are all from Jiaxing."
"I happen to be going to your place." Chen Xing said, "Are you familiar with Xitang?"
Xitang Ancient Town is the first place Chen Xing goes to. It is relatively close to Shanghai, and it doesn’t take long to drive there directly.
"You want to take pictures of ancient towns? Are you going to Xitang?"
"Yes, I'll probably stay there tonight too."
The boy originally wanted to echo a few words, but the girl was very straightforward and said: "There is nothing good to go to in Xitang. It is most famous for its corridors and sheds, but there are also some in Wuzhen. I suggest you go directly to Wuzhen."
"Ah?" Chen Xing was a little surprised.
Her boyfriend quickly said: "We are from Jiaxing and are very familiar with Xitang. We have seen the scenic spots near our home countless times, so we don't think there is anything strange about it."
The girl nodded and continued:
"Yes, although the whole country says that the ancient towns here are beautiful, I heard from my grandma that many of the beautiful ancient towns were destroyed during the Anti-Japanese War and were newly built."
Under the influence of Chen Xing's friendly temperament, she talked happily.
After all, Internet celebrities and celebrities are not something you can see anywhere. Not only did she see one in the car going home today, he even didn’t have any airs about him, and it was very comfortable to chat with him.
If you don’t talk to Chen Xing more at this time, it will probably be difficult to meet him again in the future.
Maybe Chen Xing will put their chat today in the video, which will be seen by millions of people. The girl will be very excited when she thinks of this, and will give all of Jiangnan's wealth to Chen Xing
Shake it out.
"So you recommend Wuzhen?"
"Well, Wuzhen is good. There is also Qantong. This is an ancient village that values culture and education. Although it is not very famous, people around us know this place. There is also Zhujiajiao, commonly known as the first town of Shanghai Township." Chen Xing took note of them all. They were all recommended by local people, and they were more useful than what he saw on the Internet.
"Any more?"
"There is also Tongli, Venice is commonly known as Xiaotongli, haha, Zhujiajiao is also good, the first town in Shanghai Township..."
Due to the close distance, the bus arrives very quickly.
Chen Xing said goodbye to the couple and took the No. 702 bus according to the route they introduced.
It was already afternoon. Chen Xing had only eaten one flight meal today and was a little hungry. However, he did not want to eat anything casually in Jiaxing, but saved his stomach for Xitang.
He has to record a video.
Although the girls he met on the high-speed rail did not speak highly of Xitang, Chen Xing felt that this was mostly due to local people’s natural contempt for local attractions.
Just like Chen Xing's hometown, they also have some scenic spots there that are free for locals and no one can go. They also have a hot spring hotel where a night's stay costs about 500 yuan.
But people from Chengdu like to come here to play, especially in summer.
So Chen Xing still has high expectations for Xitang.
When he was about to arrive at the place, Chen Xing took the action camera... This camera mainly records the third perspective. The first perspective has the system's own recording function. The effect is better than using a 4k video recorder, and there is no need for real-life recording.
Camera.
Chen Xing thought that as soon as the car stopped and he got out of the car door, he would see small bridges and flowing water with people living there.
But after the car stopped, what Chen Xing saw was a gate to a scenic spot.
Well, you shouldn't expect anything from this.
Buy a ticket to enter the scenic spot. The ticket is 100 yuan, and you can travel freely within two days. The girl said that Xitang has a policy of free tickets for certain points, but Chen Xing thinks it is important to protect ancient buildings, so he should buy it.
The gate of the scenic spot made Chen Xing calm down a little, but when Chen Xing walked in and saw the river inside the scenic spot and the corridor and shed built on the edge of the river, Chen Xing was silently shocked in an instant.
"Wow..."
It doesn’t matter how good the photos are of the ancient towns in the south of the Yangtze River. Just take a photo and it can be regarded as a trap for Chinese people.
The water in the river is quiet and flows slowly. The sun shines on these ripples, giving the water a color like fish scales. There are old people wearing coir raincoats and rowing boats on the waterway, and there are also people walking slowly in the corridors beside the river. Chen Xing checked the information before and knew what a shed is.
To put it simply, this is a covered street built by the river, with one side along the river and the other side filled with shops.
This kind of building is most common in Jiangnan, where the water network is densely populated. People use the river as a road and use bamboo boats to travel. Many transactions are held on the boats. Therefore, this kind of shed-style building connects the river and shops, and can not only go shopping but also protect against wind and rain.
Architecture came into being.
It sounds simple, but when you come here to see it in person, you will feel completely different.
Chen Xing didn't even care that he was still filming the video, and hurriedly walked to the shed.
When I entered the scenic spot, I felt that the temperature had dropped a bit. Now when I arrived at the river, the temperature instantly reached a comfortable level...but there were a lot of people and it was a bit stuffy.
But it's much better than before.
When you come to this special street, you can see the river on the left. You can listen to the sound of the water flowing when the boatmen are rowing, and the sound of tourists taking pictures and talking in the sheds. On the right are the small shops with lights on.
Of course, the things sold are pretty much the same.
People who travel frequently can probably see these souvenir shops in scenic spots all over the country. There is not much difference between these shops and the ones Chen Xing visited before.
However, walking here can indeed make people feel more peaceful.
Continuing forward, Chen Xing heard a burst of opera sounds.
Yue Opera?
No, it’s a song!
"Green bricks are accompanied by tile paint, white horses tread new mud. Mountain flowers and banana leaves are stained with red scarves at dusk..."
The voice is slow, but it is sung in an opera style after rearrangement.
The sound was very nice. Chen Xing quickly chased after the sound. The place where the sound came from was still inside the gallery. There were about ten tourists gathered at the door. There were not many tourists, but the gallery itself was very narrow. About ten people had already filled the small tent.
The entrance to the store was crowded with people.
The roads are blocked.
Some people even stepped on the chairs on the left side of the shed to look inside.
Chen Xing's height is not bad in China. Although young people nowadays are getting more and more ridiculously tall, Chen Xing can still maintain his height advantage. You can see what's inside when you look into the store.
The store is not big, and the shops in the sheds are like this. The area is only the same as the pavilions built in ordinary scenic spots, even if it is bigger, it is not much.
The door is blocked by a table, and inside is a short-haired woman wearing modern clothes, and she sings the song.
After looking at her for a long time, Chen Xing finally saw the products displayed in this store.
It’s actually a tape?
Instead of optical discs, optical discs are of great use now. Chen Xing knows that many units now like to use optical discs to save data. Although Chen Xing doesn’t know what they think, in Chen Xing’s opinion, using USB disks is also very convenient.<
/p>
But I haven’t seen the tape in a long time.
Chen Xing can still see the young Jay Chou on the tape.
I suddenly have the desire to buy it, even if I take it back to collect it, it’s okay. When Jay Chou became famous, Chen Xing had no money to support it, so all he listened to were pirated copies. After all, Chen Xing owed Jay Chou a lot of money for his albums.<
/p>
"Raindrops are sprinkled on the eaves, and birds are rising from the smoke. Where are you as if you are wandering around..."
After finishing the song, the girl smiled at the audience and then talked to her mobile phone.
It turned out to be a live broadcast.
A tourist asked: "Is it still profitable to open a store like this now?"
The girl sitting in the store live broadcasting said: "It's just a hobby, just playing around, uncle, do you want to buy a tape?"
"If I don't buy it, I won't buy it. If I buy it, I won't have a chance to listen to it. To listen to this, you need a radio, right? The last time I saw a radio was ten years ago. Little girl, do you still sing?"
"If you don't buy the tape, you won't sing."
Another young man asked: "How much does your tape cost?"
"It depends on the situation, the cheapest is a hundred, the expensive is several thousand."
The audience immediately crossed their faces and dispersed in a rush... The road was finally no longer blocked.
Chen Xing stretched his neck, holding the camera and sitting on the bench on the left side of the shed by the river. There are wooden benches at regular intervals in the shed, which are very good for resting.<
/p>
He didn't look inside the store. Instead, he sat with his back to them, preparing to take pictures of the scenery on the river.
Chen Xing walked for so long and ran around chasing the sound. He didn't know where he ended up. Opposite him seemed to be an inn?
Yes, it’s an inn.
The bluestone ladder extends from the river to a small courtyard. If you look carefully, you can see that this courtyard is the balcony of the house in front. It has a roof made of tiles, two dark black pillars, and two big red lanterns hanging on it. There is a sign hanging on the railing to prevent people inside from falling into the water.
Lotus Garden Inn.
There are two old-fashioned wicker chairs on the balcony.
Chen Xing has not seen this kind of chair for a long time. I remember that there was a wicker chair at home before. Although it is different from this style, it is really comfortable to sit on.
This room seems to be already occupied by people. There is a father and a seven or eight-year-old girl standing on the bluestone stairs. The little girl is squatting and feeding the fish with something in her hand.
As soon as I got excited, I smiled and played with the water, holding up splashes of water with my right hand.
Chen Xing quickly clicked the shutter button a dozen times to capture the happy look of the child playing with the water in the river.
There are long bridges with dark tiles and white walls, and the warm sunshine shines on the wine glasses.
