Chapter 401
With the fall of the Zhang family, the training program that had been taken back by Zhang Binqiang returned to Zachary's hands under Huang Wei's special approval. After some tidying up, Zachary and the others opened Rende Chinese Medicine Academy again. Of course, this time, it was no longer the way of nominal cooperation. The school reopened, and the students of the provincial capital came back at this moment, including Irene who came to study with sincerity.
The two girls, who hadn't been together with Song Yunjia for a long time, went to the provincial capital together after many gatherings. They planned to visit the nearby attractions before the semester started.
Naturally, the two of them came to find Zachary. Zachary had originally planned to bring her along peacefully. After all, she was a girl who had not been of the same age as them and who had just graduated. However, he did not expect this girl to be so focused on entering the training camp. She did not come out at all, and she did not even have the interest to travel.
Therefore, Zachary accompanied the two little girls, who hadn't seen Song Yunjia for a long time, driving together to a scenic spot in the suburbs of the province.
This scenic spot was located at the junction of the provincial capital and the surrounding cities. Although it was not very famous, it was still beautiful. The scenery was still good, and it had been slowly developed in recent years.
The mountain was not very big, so after Zachary parked the car in the parking lot under the scenic area, he carried their luggage and began to walk up the mountain with the two girls.
During June, the grass and woods flourished in the mountain. The bluestone stone steps were winding up all the way. On both sides of the steps were birds' twittering and flowers' fragrance. The pleasant air took a deep breath. It seemed that the fragrance of the grass penetrated into the heart and made people feel relaxed and happy.
Especially for Zachary, who was cultivating the Shen Nong's Herbal Classic, this kind of environment made him feel very comfortable both physically and mentally, as if he was about to integrate into the world.
The mountains in the scenic area were not high, and the stone steps and mountain roads were not steep. The three people walked and stopped all the way, taking photos and playing, which was very relaxing. They set off at 10 o'clock in the morning from the foot of the mountain. At 12:30 in the afternoon, the three of them arrived at the leisure area halfway up the mountain.
This was a man-made flat ground. The cable car from the middle of the scenic area to the top of the mountain, the leisure hotel, stalls and various tourist groups, almost all gathered here.
As soon as they came here, the three of them felt that it was much more lively than before on the mountain road.
It was the lunch time. The three of them decided to have lunch here. After resting for a while, they would continue up the mountain. They would spend the night on the mountain and then come down the next day. Because it was just the time for dinner, there were a lot of people in the hotel, and they had to line up. Zachary found two seats for the two girls to sit down first, and then he lined up to order food.
There were not many people in the hotel, so they were not fast. After more than 20 minutes, Zachary came over with the menu.
And when he returned, he saw that there were three youths who had not been with Song Yunjia for a long time.
There were two men and a woman among the three. They were all in their early twenties, wearing professional sportswear and carrying a huge backpack behind their backs. Looking at their dark skin, it could be guessed that they were the kind of tourists who often went out.
At this moment, she hadn't been chatting with Song Yunjia and the other two in high spirits for a long time.
Zachary came over and said hello. Song Yunjia introduced him and said, "Mr. Ching, these three are college students in Jingcheng City. They are specially out for a trip. Over the past year, they have been to more than ten provinces and provinces all over the country."
"My name is Ayke. This is Li Hong and Lin Yue." A tall, short-haired young man introduced Zachary with a smile.
The shorter one next to him was Li Hong, and the ordinary-looking girl next to him was Lin Yue.
Zachary smiled and waved his hand as a greeting. Then he sat down beside them for a long time.
"Mr. Ching, the experience of Aike and the others is so interesting!" Song Yunjia said to Zachary. Then she turned to Aik and the other two excitedly and continued to ask, " Aike, why did you come to our provincial capital? There are no famous tourist attractions here."
Ayke said with a smile, "Those famous tourist attractions, such as Shaolin Temple, Wudang Mountain and Emei Mountain, have long been developed, and their business atmosphere is too strong. If we go there now, it's obviously not to see the scenery, but to see people. That kind of place is not a tourist at all for us."
"So, the places we're traveling to are all not very famous, but the scenery is very desolate."
As soon as Ayke finished speaking, Li Hong added, "What we're pursuing is the release of our souls. Only places with unorthodox backgrounds can bring us the feeling of the return of our souls. In the past year, we've almost all searched for such places."
With that, Li Hong took out his camera and showed it to Song Yunjia and her for a long time.
Zachary also glanced at them. All these were pictures taken by the three of them in front of the stones and plants.
Song Yunfei and had not seen each other for a long time, and her eyes were suddenly more excited. Both of them were high school students who had just graduated. They had been trapped in a nervous school for three years, and their daily life was monotonous and repetitive.
Now, when they met this kind of person who was like a book, they traveled around, looking for the release of the soul, and to pursue the true meaning of life. Suddenly, the two girls began to have stars in their eyes.
As for Zachary, he was not interested in these so-called spiritual travels. However, this was someone else's life after all. Although he did not approve of it, he would not casually criticize it.
As for those who had not been with Song Yunjia for a long time, at their age, it was normal for them to have these yearnings. Zachary did not need to refute anything.
The more they talked, the happier they became. Song Yunxian almost made up her mind that after she went to college, she would have to go on a journey where she could leave without saying a word. However, it was not for a long time. She blinked her beautiful big eyes and asked with some concern, "Then why don't you withdraw from school? Do you still have a teacher at home to take care of you?"
Hearing these words for a long time, Ayk's face suddenly became a little excited. Looking at them for a long time, he said, "Our country's teaching now is simply to memorize it by memory. The things we learn are for exam. Even in college, they are all useless things. Learning these things is simply a waste of time. Young people like us are going to find poems and distance."
Next to him, Li Hong also said with excitement, "Spend our great youth on these useless examinations and studies. Don't you think this is a waste of life? A person's life is short, and our goal is to explore the beauty of the world and understand the meaning of life in this short period of time. This is our pursuit."
The girl Lin Yue pouted and said with a look of disdain, "You haven't entered college yet, so you don't know the current situation of the university. Many people are not playing games, watching movies, and dating. Even those students are bookworms who have studied hard. It's better to travel and read more and find the meaning of life than this."
After that, Lin Yue looked at the two girls and said, "You've just graduated from high school and haven't got a chance to travel yet. But you can read more books. What extracurricular books do you usually read?"
Having not been disappointed for a long time, he lowered his head and said, "Usually, I'm quite nervous when it comes to classes. I basically read books."
Song Yunjia said, "I only followed grandpa to read some 'Book of Changes' and 'A Dream in Red Mansions'."
Lin Yue waved her hand and said, "These things are too old, and the quality of these books at home is too bad. If I want to recommend them, I recommend the works of KVF Card abroad and the Spring Tree in the village. You should read more and taste the thoughts in the books. Many people at your age don't understand this."
Song Yunxi looked serious and remembered Lin Yue's recommendation.
Zachary, on the other hand, was not very happy when he heard the three of them. He furrowed his brows.
He didn't really agree with them. Although there were some situations in which they had to read hard and take exams, none of the three people were so exaggerated. Besides, at any time, studying in school was the most important thing. What's more, as a student without a source of economic background, he didn't study hard to share the burden of parents. Instead, he blindly promoted the meaning of these superficial lives and the essence of his heart to find the so-called poems and distant places.
From Zachary's point of view, this was a great lack of responsibility.
However, when it came to strangers, Zachary didn't have the time to debate with them and change their minds.
Therefore, he had not been with Song Yunjia for a long time. He said, "The dishes are ready. Ahwei, Yunjia, come and have dinner."
The two girls nodded, said goodbye to the three of them, and then went to dinner with Zachary.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
On the dining table, the two women were apparently still immersed in the distance and poetry described by the three people just now. Zachary did not say anything at the moment. After all, this kind of excitement, as long as the passion was gone, it would soon be restored. As long as he was not as excited as them as he was for a long time.
After lunch, the three of them rested for a while and then continued on their way.
At four o'clock in the afternoon, the three of them reached the top of the mountain. The top of the mountain was not big, but the scenery was very good. Standing on the top of the mountain, they looked at the lush trees and flowers below, as well as the thin figures in the mountain forest path. A different kind of taste came to their hearts, making people feel open-minded and open-minded.
Since it was almost evening, almost all the people on the top of the mountain were going downhill. Few people, like Zachary, were going to stay on the top of the mountain.
After all, the only hotel on the top of the mountain was expensive. A single room cost a thousand yuan per night. Ordinary people really couldn't afford it.
In addition to a few rich people who stayed on the mountain, the rest were some travelers who took their tents with them.
Zachary and his friends rested on the mountain for a while, looked at the scenery, and then went to play in the hotel.
After all, the three of them came here to relax, not to find the true meaning of life, but to travel. In addition, Zachary did not lack for money, so he naturally would not treat himself unfairly.
The hotel on the top of the mountain was not luxurious, but exquisite. All kinds of decorations were charming. Many of them were made of the original wood on the mountain, looking quaint and natural.
