Chapter 202 The First Station of the Great Wall

The city of Yulin really has an inexplicable charm. It is not entirely correct to say that it is antique.

Hangzhou is also an ancient town. For thousands of years, the gentleness of the south of the Yangtze River has been integrated into the Suzhou-Hangzhou area.As for the ancient city of Yulin, what Ye Kai experienced was another feeling.

Especially when Ye Kai saw Zhenbei Terrace, this feeling was particularly strong.

Like, a kind of national pride?

Drive five kilometers north from Yulin, and you can see a huge pier standing on the top of the Red Mountain. This is the largest beacon tower on the Great Wall——Zhenbei Tower.

The terrain of Zhenbeitai is very high, there are no particularly modern buildings around, and it is far away from the city. It is considered a commercial area under the scenic spot, which is very small.

Although the decoration style of this commercial area is also antique, Ye Kai is not interested in it at all, and goes straight to Zhenbeitai.

There is Shanhaiguan in the east, Zhenbeitai in the middle, and JYG in the west.These are the three wonders of the Ming Great Wall and the most magnificent building in the ruins of the Ming Great Wall.

There are few tourists in Zhenbeitai, which feels even less than that in Lingxiao Tower.

Ye Kai traveled so many places, this is the first time he has this kind of experience of "packing scenic spots".Coincidentally, Ye Kai doesn't like to go to places with too many people, and it's just as he likes that it's so quiet here.

There is a park outside Zhenbei Terrace. Follow Dou Shuangyu and you will soon arrive at the entrance of Zhenbei Terrace, but the city gate says it is Kuangong City.

Dou Shuangyu said: "This is the tribute city. After entering here, it is a trading venue set up by the government at that time. It is also a venue for the Ming Dynasty to entertain and reward ethnic envoys, accept tribute and negotiate border trade affairs."

Entering from the city gate, there is a long downhill on the right side, and the fine and neat bluestone bricks extend along the ramp to a platform with a drop of more than ten meters, which is Kuangong City.

The dilapidated city walls that looked like piles of loess surrounded Qiangong City. Two or three football field-sized platforms were empty and overgrown with weeds. It seemed that the officials had not repaired the place.

On the right hand side is a road that can directly enter Zhenbei Terrace. After walking up, it does not have the dilapidated feeling of Qiangong City, and it has been cleaned and tidied up.

"This place is the first floor of Zhenbei Terrace." Dou Shuangyu said, "There used to be several barracks here for officials to discuss matters, but they fell into disrepair and collapsed after a long period of time. Now these buildings were restored a few years ago. "

Ye Kai nodded, the restoration was very good, the traditional masonry structure, and the architectural style of the Ming Dynasty.

Zhenbei Terrace is square and trapezoidal, divided into four floors, with a total height of about 30 meters. Each floor is surrounded by female walls and crenels are set up. The first floor is only the base and the place for training soldiers.

The entire town of Beitai is actually located in a corner of Xiangong City.

"Come on, let's go to the top floor." Ye Kai said.

The stairs should have been made of bluestone bricks, but now they have been built into wooden stairs. The stairs going up are not too narrow, but the stairs leading to the top of the building are a bit narrow.

The roof is also empty, and there is a sign in the center, introducing the story of the top floor.

There used to be a sentry tower here, which also collapsed.

The roof of the building is only about a hundred square meters, and there are crenels that are often seen on the city walls all around. Standing on the crenels and looking into the distance, it is what people often call the scenery beyond the Great Wall.

very quiet.

If Dou Shuangyu hadn't spoken, Ye Kai wouldn't have heard any man-made sounds here, and the strong wind from the northwest was blowing the Ming flags all around.

The sky is also very flattering to Ye, the sky is so clear that you can see dozens of miles away at a glance.

Stand on the top of Zhenbei Terrace and look out.

Within a radius of tens of miles, you can see sparse vegetation on the loess land, a big river flowing in the distance, and the ancient and young Yulin City. All these are the scenery beyond the Great Wall that prompted Ye Kai to come to this place.

Ye Kai has been standing there for a long time. In fact, there is nothing to see here, but it can make people stay here.

At first glance, nothing can block your view.

It is said in ancient poems that you will be at the top of the mountain and look at all the small mountains.

But in this place, Ye Kai feels that there are no mountains in the unobstructed view, only low plains, and the yellow land on the side cannot be seen, but where are the mountains?

The mountain was right where Ye Kai was standing, at his feet.

The ancient emperors liked to stand on high places.

Now Ye Kai can more or less feel a little bit of the feeling of standing at the top, and it was indeed fascinating at that moment.

In the distance the sun was sinking to the edge of the earth.

Ye Kai was looking at the sunset, and Dou Shuangyu was looking at a low stone foundation left after the tower collapsed.

She really wants to sit down...

But the ground was really dirty, and the white pants I was wearing would definitely leave marks if I sat down on them. It would be fine if I put paper on them, but wouldn't it be too weird to sit here?
She looked at Ye Kai.

He was holding up his camera to take pictures of the sunset, his long legs seemed to be rooted in the ground, and he couldn't see any movement at all.

Good health, she thought.

Compared to these big travel anchors, I'm still too weak, why don't I spend an extra hour dancing every day?
running?If you can't run, your legs will get thicker.

Thinking wildly in his mind, until Ye Kai shouted: "Let's go back, we've been here for more than an hour, why don't we feel anything?"

Are you going?

Dou Shuangyu was a little surprised, and almost fell to the ground when she raised her leg.

You call this feeling nothing?
Perverted, too perverted!

When he walked out of Zhenbeitai, Ye Kai's mood was a little different from when he first arrived in Yulin. The exhaustion from flying around in the past month has completely dissipated, and he feels much more relaxed.

What I felt for Dou Shuangyu was that the current Ye Kai is more approachable than before.

Ye Kai was also very polite before, but there was always a high-cold style that rejected people thousands of miles away, but now it is gone. If you don’t think about the millions of fans Ye Kai has, then the person standing in front of you is a Cheerful, sunny guy.

A person who might show up somewhere in your life and make you desperate to start a conversation.

The bus stop was not far from here, and it was hard to wait for a taxi, so the two went to the bus stop to take the bus back to YL City, and it was already past six o'clock when they arrived in the city.

Ye Kai said: "Thank you so much for today. Does your foot hurt after walking so far? Shall I treat you to a meal?"

"That's so embarrassing, let me please..." Dou Shuangyu raised her hand and shouted loudly.

"Don't make trouble, I'm your idol anyway, right? It's normal for me to treat my little fans to a meal." Ye Kai said shamelessly.

"Little..." Dou Shuangyu was discouraged, she hated this word.

Of course Dou Shuangyu found the place, how could Ye Kai, an outsider, know what is the best food in Yulin City.

But Dou Shuangyu is different. As a "travel" anchor in this city, her daily research is to find delicious food everywhere in Yulin City.
