Don't pretend, anchor, I've seen you touch the golden talisman!

Chapter 503
The total distance from Shangjing to Luodu is more than 800 kilometers.

I drove over all night, just in time for the first pot of mutton soup in the early morning.

Luodu is also known as the "Tangdu". The soup refers to the local delicacies that are famous for their soups. There is a popular saying among the people: a bowl of soup when you wake up early is not worth giving to a god.

This shows how much the locals love this bowl of soup.

The soup is mostly made of beef and mutton, which is also a dietary tradition passed down from the early meat soup in the Central Plains.

Now it has developed into multiple categories, including beef soup, mutton soup, donkey meat soup, tofu soup, non-turning soup, mixed liver soup, meatball soup, and indispensable a bowl of spicy soup.

Served with a variety of local pasta snacks, it is in line with the local saying: A bowl of soup will make you feel comfortable all afternoon.

Real gourmets have very high requirements for delicious food. They often like to rush to the soup restaurant in the morning before dawn, just for that mellow and rich soup.

"I said, we are not gourmets, let alone professional bloggers visiting stores. We rush to have a soup under the stars, what are we doing for the sake of it?"

Wang Qiang yawned, muttered a few words, and continued to hold the steering wheel.

Qian Sheng and Bai Lu in the back row had already fallen asleep.

Wang Qiang had just taken over the steering wheel from the previous service area. At this moment, he had not completely recovered and was a little tired of getting up.

I was very puzzled by Lin Yi's behavior of rushing to drink the first soup.

"You usually run faster than anyone else when it comes to food, why are you complaining this time?
You don’t really think I’m doing it for that oral soup? "

"What else could it be?"

“Luodu is a city with a strong cultural atmosphere. It is an ancient capital of thirteen dynasties and has a profound historical heritage. If you want to have a deeper understanding, you must first integrate into the lives of the locals.

The people who get up early every day to drink the first soup must be people who have integrated into this city. Listening to their chats will give them insights. "

"Then you put it this way and I understand. Those who drink bean juice are not necessarily from Beijing, but those who carry a thermos bottle to make soy juice before dawn must be from Beijing."

"Smart! Children can be taught!"

"Go to your uncle!"

The two of them bickered and joked with each other along the way, which didn't seem so boring.

When we arrived in Luodu, it was just after five o'clock in the morning. Many soup cans were already open for business, and some old restaurants that opened at the entrance of the community even had long queues.

Looking around, they are basically older uncles and uncles.

At this time, the temperature in Luodu was already quite cool in the morning. After I parked my car and came out, my body felt chilly and shivering, so I couldn't help but start heading to a crowded place.

When the locals saw how they were dressed, they knew they were not locals.

"Are you here for a trip?"

"Yes, uncle, we came here specially to see the famous place. When we arrived here, we wanted to experience our local food first."

I have to say that these local uncles and uncles are really enthusiastic. When they heard that they were coming for tourism, they started chatting one after another, asking about the surrounding tourist attractions and food.

"It's not bad to drink soup as soon as you come here. After drinking soup, go to Laojun Mountain, then visit Longmen Grottoes, then visit White Horse Temple and the museum, that's all."

"You are an expert. These are the places we want to visit. We are just interested in history."

"What else? Jiuzhou City, Luoyang City Ruins, and Luoyi Ancient City are all interesting."

"What's the point? They came here because of the history of Luodu. What you mentioned was all built later."

"What? That's not history?"

"What kind of history is it if you cultivate it later?"

"Look at what you said, isn't that called history? That's right, Mangshan is called history, and there are all graves there, so what's the point?" The two uncles became more and more excited as they talked. Qian Sheng and the others were talking to the people around them. Go up quickly to persuade.

Lin Yi was attracted by the place name they mentioned.

"Mangshan."

Yang Shen, a great talent in the Ming Dynasty, once composed a poem called Moon over the West River:

The three emperors and five emperors of morality, fame and fame after Xia, Shang and Zhou.

Seven heroes and five hegemons fight against each other in the Spring and Autumn Period.

Rise and fall in an instant.

There are a few lines of names and surnames in Qingshi, and countless barren hills in Beimang.

The fields of the forefathers are harvested by the next generation.

It's said that dragons and tigers are fighting each other.

This poem was later used as an opening poem by the commentaries, and was usually placed in front of the robe belt book.

The Bei Mang mentioned in the poem is the Mang Mountain that the uncle mentioned just now.

Beimang Mountain is really famous in Chinese history, and it is an auspicious land with excellent Feng Shui.

There are 24 imperial mausoleums and their accompanying tombs from six dynasties including the Eastern Han Dynasty, Cao Wei Dynasty, Western Jin Dynasty and Northern Wei Dynasty.

So the old man said that if you want to see the real history, you should come to Mangshan.

This is also the largest group of ancient mausoleums in China. "Born in Suzhou and Hangzhou, buried in Beimang" was the lifelong dream of the Chinese people in the past, and it was also synonymous with their ultimate destination.

Lin Yi and the others had just arrived here, so they had no idea what to do. They were drinking a bowl of beef soup here, but they happened to meet these enthusiastic old men making a noise, which provided them with an excellent idea.

Luodu began to operate from the time of Zhou Gongdan, until the Zhou Dynasty finally moved the capital from Haojing to Luoyi, and then experienced changes in the dynasties. It can be said that this land, from the ground point of view, has no secrets at all.

Emperor Xuanwu of the Northern Wei Dynasty wanted to hide his small treasury in Luodu. The safest way was to bury it deep underground.

For example, in the name of building a mausoleum, the "wilderness general" was actually allowed to rob the tomb and bury all the accumulated wealth in it.

Beimang Mountain is an excellent treasure hiding place.

There are tens of thousands of tombs here alone. If you dig out one a day, it will take you 30 years.

Wang Qiang and Bai Lu had already brought out the beef head soup and shredded pancakes. Lin Yi asked Qian Sheng to add a portion of beef to each of the two uncles just now.

At this time, the old brothers had gotten back together, eating beef and drinking wine, chatting happily, and even said hello to them.

"What do you think? Let's drink the soup and gain insights. Originally, we were not at all confused, but now we have an idea immediately."

"Isn't it a bit hasty to confirm it so quickly?"

"No, since it is the Tuoba family's own small treasury, it can not only be hidden, but also be taken out. No matter how miserable the descendants of their family are, at least their posthumous affairs must be handled decently, as long as there are people When you inherit the throne, the first thing you must do is go to Mang Mountain to build the mausoleum. At this time, you can take out the inventory in the small treasury and use it as military pay or to recruit troops. This is the starting capital."

"That's very well said. I can't wait for you. I'm going to drink the soup first. Even if you put the gold ingot in front of me now, you still can't exchange for my bowl of hot soup."

"Brother, what are our plans next? Go directly to Beimang Mountain?"

Lin Yi shook his head.

"It's not that simple. Simon points to the direction, and the star board can determine the direction. We must first go to the original sites of the two relief stone carvings in Longmen Grottoes and then make the next plan."
