The First Auxiliary Road from the Imperial Examination

Chapter 39
When Mammy introduced Shidong Mountain Forest, she only said that it was very cool here, but when Sheng Yuan came here, she found that it seemed to be different from what she had imagined.

She thought it was a forest of strange rocks, but in fact, it was an artificial cave several kilometers long.

Sheng Yuan stood on the small embankment of the surrounded river beach and looked forward. In front of him was the place where the boats were picked up and boarded.

At this time, the noble ladies had already boarded the boat in twos and threes, paddling their own paddles and slowly moving forward along the current.

Because it is necessary to leave enough gaps for each small boat, gradually, the people waiting to take the boat lined up.

Sheng Yuan stood on tiptoe and looked at the dozen or so figures in front of her. She couldn't stay still. After promising her sister not to run around, she bounced out of the line and chatted with the nurse next to her.

Listening to her question about how the cave was built, the guardian nurse said with a smile: "Isn't the little girl afraid of looking at the stone? Don't worry, there are people checking every ten days, it's very safe!"

As for how it was built, it has been quite a few years. You can see that the cave is very large, but the actual number of stones used is only dozens of stones. Here is the combination of these stones. You see, here every two or three The caves with a distance of ten feet are made of two large stones juxtaposed.

At the beginning, it took some effort to transport these huge stones to Beijing. After they were brought in, they were carved on the outside and chiselled on the inside, and then the cave was formed.

In the early days, the craftsmen were afraid that they would not be strong, so they specially used the mortise and tenon method to build a skeleton of the processed wood to fit these boulders, and then weaved a net on the skeleton with dyed rattan, fearing that there would be small broken stones drop. "

Sheng Yuan suddenly realized, and looked out from the railing: "The direction of the stream is also for better sailing, right?"

The caretaker nodded kindly: "The little girl is really smart! The design here is to let the nobles experience the leisurely pleasure of boating by themselves, so they sail along the water."

"But do those sisters know how to row a boat?" Sheng Yuan looked at his short arms hesitantly, and was very worried about whether his sister could row the boat well by herself. Woolen cloth?"

Seeing that she is such a small person, the caretaker frowned and sighed like an adult, and couldn't help comforting her with a smile: "Little girl, don't worry, if you really want to use the paddles on the boat, it must be fine, but If you say you want to treat it as a decoration, then it will certainly be."

"How do you say that?" Sheng Yuan was a curious baby, and kept great curiosity about any question, so he hurriedly asked, "Could it be possible that the boat can row away by itself?"

"You'll know as soon as you get on the boat and see it in person." Hey, this nanny is still playing tricks.

Sheng Yuan is a considerate child, and he is willing to satisfy other people's small pleasures in irrelevant things, so he doesn't ask questions, but rolls his big eyes and tiptoes curiously to look over there.

Such a cute move of hers almost made the nanny tell her directly.

The reason why I didn't say it was because a maid came and told Sheng Yuan to go to the boat.

Sheng Yuan saw her sister waving to her not far away, hurriedly waved goodbye to the caretaker, and ran over.

"Girl, be careful!" Sheng Yuan didn't wait for her sister to hug her, and jumped directly on her own. At that time, the boat was shaking. Fortunately, there were maids watching, and the two of them stabilized the boat.

"Sheng Yuan!" Sister Sheng An glared over with a straight face.

Sheng Yuan was already guilty, but now she looked at her sister begging for mercy with a cute face.

"Girls, the boat has set sail." The maids reminded, and with their wrists together, they pushed the boat forward, and Sheng Yuan felt the boat move forward slowly.

"Sister! Sister! Don't row the oars yet, the nanny says you can go without paddling." Sheng Yuan remembered what the nanny said just now, and hurriedly learned it from her sister Sheng An.

Sheng An rolled her eyes: "The terrain here is a little higher, so naturally you can move forward without paddling."

That's what I said, but it's still very face-saving.

Sheng Yuan had long forgotten that she had just made a mistake. At this moment, her little head turned left and right from time to time, looking back and forth at both sides of the bank.

The mouth was still blunt: "Sister, look, there is no boat on the small bank of the river bank, should we wait until we enter the cave?"

Sheng An supported the boat on the handrail and reprimanded her angrily: "I don't know what you asked, but I know that if you continue to make trouble like this, we will capsize before we enter the cave!"

"..." Sheng Yuan shrank his neck when he remembered the scene when he just jumped off the ship, and he became much more honest.

Of course, when the boat approached the cave, Sheng Yuan became lively again.

Seeing his younger sister start poking around with great interest again, Sheng An felt tired. Could it be that children are so annoying?
Sheng Yuan didn't know that she was disgusted by her sister, she looked at the guards standing on the bamboo platforms on both sides of the cave, her eyes lit up, she clapped her hands and said happily, "So that's how it is!"

She was afraid that her sister would not understand, so she hurriedly tugged on the sleeve and said, "Sister! Sister! Look at these guards holding pennies, there are five of them every zhang distance, and they keep poking the stream with pennies. Aren't you going to help us row the boat?"

After all, Sheng An is still a nine-year-old child, even if he gets angry for a while, when he sees something new, he looks over it curiously: "Yes! Let me just say, some girls have arms that are not as thick as pennies. How is it possible to paddle a boat."

"Huh?" Sheng Yuan didn't expect that her sister didn't understand, so she rolled her eyes and accused her preemptively, "Then you disliked me for running just now! If it wasn't for my eagerness to learn, how could you understand so much? "

Sheng An: "..."

Haha, is this a big deal of knowledge?Still understand this much?
In order not to be tempted to beat up his sister outside, Sheng An planned to keep silent for the time being. Anyway, this little guy deserves a lot of beatings, and he will talk about it when he goes back and reports to his parents!

Sheng Yuan didn't know that his little PP had already been slapped, and he looked up at the inner wall of the cave happily.

Seriously, if Mammy hadn't said that there were wooden skeletons and rattan here, she really wouldn't have noticed it!

It is said that the light in the cave is much darker, but this is not the case here.

Ice lamps of primary colors are tightly hung on both sides of the cave walls, and colored ice lamps dyed with various colors of water are scattered among them, making the entire cave colorful and beautiful.

Although these ice lamps did not melt, wisps of white cold air emitted every moment, making the cave very cool.

These cold airs combined with the candlelight halo from the ice lamp, looked like a dream from a distance.

"It's so beautiful!" Sheng Yuan couldn't use his eyes, and it was a pity that he couldn't take pictures of this beautiful scene.

[Host don't worry, look at me!I'm all done! 】The system is holding the camera and it is a snap shot.

Sheng Yuan sighed and shook his head: "You are useless, I can't show it to my parents!"

The system had an idea and gave her an idea: [Let your sister draw it!Didn't you say that she draws well?Seems better than writing poetry? 】

"It makes sense!" Sheng Yuan clapped her hands, then turned around and told her sister.

Hearing this, Sheng An immediately woke up from the intoxication of admiring the beautiful scenery, and looked at the innocent younger sister who was smiling in disbelief: "No! Sheng Xiaojiu! You actually gave me homework when I was having fun?"

Sheng Yuan had his own reasoning, shaking his little head and said, let parents enjoy the beautiful scenery together, this is filial piety, how can it be called homework?
Sheng An angrily smiled, and nodded in agreement.

Well, since you don't talk about sisterhood, let's dig into old scores!

"Did you agree to go boating and talk? Come on, tell me why you don't like Zheng Sanniang?"

Sheng Yuan didn't think it was turning over the old score, but clapped her hands and thanked her sister very happily. If her sister didn't mention it, she would have forgotten it just now!

Immediately, he sat down obediently and began to tell the novel prepared by the system vividly.

Sheng An looked at her beaming face, and put her shoulders on the couch: It seems... her sister's brain circuit is a little different?
