《THE WAY OF FAITH》CH.26-Nantou
Advertisement
Yu Ruoling stood on the right side of Yu Hong Axiu and carefully looked up and down the decoration of the reception hall on the first floor. The homestay at an altitude of 841 meters is cooler than the flat.
Almost every piece of furniture here is made of wood cut and ground and then painted with bright lacquer. If one breathe hard, he or she can smell the faint fragrance of cypress, and the faint scent of black tea in the air is entangled around the Mr. and the Mrs.
She tilted her head to look for it, and sure enough, she found a set of ancient Chinese-style kiln pottery cups and tea sets on the large cypress table. The hot smoke in the cup is rising, and the intoxicating Taiwan Tea No. 17 is silent in the pot.
It is only matched with a wall-mounted 40-inch large LCD TV, and there is a sense of uncertainty in the interlaced time and space.
"Let's go to the room to put our luggage first, and then drive to our first place. "Yu Xiaoyang said.
Yu Ruoling and Yu Xiaoyang are carrying two bags of luggage together, but then found out why her part missing?
...Her father's is also gone.
Yu raised her head and saw that the Mr. was very straightforward carrying the bags in one hand.
"I'll take it for you!I can't train my muscles, it's so light."He glanced at Yu Ruoling unintentionally, and asked in surprise, "My sweet little sister, aren't you cold?You still wear short sleeves in winter. Should be careful that your nose is prone to landslides!"
Yu Ruoling really wanted to suppress the urge to laugh to tears, but in the end she couldn't hold back her "poof", "Ha!I'm not afraid of the cold, this kind of weather is just right for me."
The mountain outside the room window occupies just two-thirds of the view from the window. At 13:30 in the afternoon, thick clouds gradually spreads on the mountain peak, and the sun shines through it, making the whole emerald green mountain more vivid, like an emerald stone buried under the stratum under high temperature and pressure for thousands of years, the radiance that blooms after a day of polishing.

In a metaphor, it's like a young lion covered in scars...but it would never as good as a battle-hardened lion king.
...Or like the glory of God, she remembered that the pastor said that the best metaphor for the glory of God in this world is the colorful glow of the sun shining through the clouds.
A little bit wanted to fly up to the sky to see it, must very beautiful, she thought, maybe she would not want to come down after going up, after all, that kind of opportunity is lifetime, unless she can grow a pair of big white wings.
She saw the huge white stone square arch in the Xitou Forest Recreation Area from the car window, and there were already dozens of tourist buses parked in the parking lot dedicated to the tourist bus.
The winter vacation has just started, and the business of travel agencies is so good. She think many famous tourist attractions will be able to make a lot of profits in the future.
"Ling, Mom, let's go buy tickets first, you guys are waiting here."
Yu Hong Axiu narrowed her eyes. There were indeed a lot of people at the ticket booth not far away, and she felt breathless when she saw it, "Okay."
Yu Ruoling looked at her parents who were walking away, with an inexplicable smile on her lips, "Grandma, wanna take a picture?"
"No!Just take pictures of the scenery."
"Oh."She took out a digital camera from her purple backpack, pointed the lens at the red plaque that said Xitou Forest Recreation Area, and pressed the shutter.
A faint, light sweetness drifted into her sense of smell from downwind, and an unknown little flower about 300 meters away was announcing her existence to the world.

"I'm starving, what shall we eat at night?"Li Qiao carried a black bag on her shoulders and held a small glass bottle of water in hand.

"I don't know, what about you, Mom?"Yu Xiaoyang threw the question to Yu Hong Axiu.
"It's all right, let's see what my granddaughter wants to eat."As an elder who should be honored, she left the question to Yu Ruoling.
"I can take all the opinions. Mom, what do you want to eat?"Yu then threw the question back to Li Qiao.
...
"Otherwise, let's find a restaurant here. But don't eat too much. The proprietress said that she would invite us to drink tea and chat in the evening."
Yu looked around, and the whole food street near the ticket gate was fragrant, and many tourists who went down the mountain with them went there. She looked up at the wooden plaques, and was surprised to find that they all looked similar in length.
She thought that the food court director wanted them to be of a unified format. Four dishes and one pot of soup, plus unlimited rice, cost a total of 24 dollars. The specifications of the tourist areas made her feel that she did not need to be too surprised.
Satisfied, the three Yu family returned to the B&B to chat with the proprietress and the boss over tea. It's just that Taiwan Tea No. 17 has been replaced with other varieties.
Yu Ruoling didn't remember much about the specifics, but the biscuits were delicious and the tea was delicious. Now she just wants to hurry up and take a shower and lie on the bed.
She closing the shower head in the bathroom, feeling that the muscle group above her knees is so sore that she can't walk normally.

The little girl chewed on the milk ice cream she was holding, feeling a little proud in her heart. In the forest park just now, every tourist was wearing long-sleeved clothes and coats, only she was short-sleeved, she thought, her body not afraid of cold seems a bit too much.
With the time and water vapor on the mountain road, thick clouds is surging. There is a white field in front of them that can hardly see the warning yellow line at the edge of the lane.
In addition, the lane going down the mountain is not on the side of the mountain wall, and it will go out of the way if driver are not careful. They would Bumped into a row of protective trees on the edge of a cliff.
But with Yu current clothes, even Li Qiao, who was concentrating on finding the warning line, felt her body get cold, and her daughter still eats ice in the weather of 15 degrees Celsius.
It seemed that there was something wrong with her perception.
"Ling, are you really not feeling cold?"She looked at Yu Ruoling and her mother-in-law who was wearing a scarf, a big coat and a hat through the rearview mirror.
What a classic comparison.
"No, the weather is just right."
"Hahaha!My daughter has inherited it from me!As expected of the descendants of the special forces!"Yu Xiaoyang said.
Yu Hong Axiu, who was somewhat motion sick, almost slapped her son on the head when she heard these words, "What the hell!Get your drive well."
Oh dammit, grandma's mantra is really getting younger and younger, Yu Ruoling thought. However, there is still more than half an hour before their lunch destination - GPS shows that. Is there any way for Dad to drive faster and safely?
She is a little bit hungry.

Damien Petrotti barricaded himself within his logical, black and white walls, believing there is no area for second chances, for grey areas, or messy emotions. When he first meets the quiet and soft-spoken Ella Cortesa, a Spanish, delicate girl, he can't help but dislike her naivety and ignorance of the world. He lives in the court, deciding between right and wrong, and she lives advising people, giving them psychological help. He's not as cold as she thinks, and she's not as naive as he thinks.A modern combination of mind over heart, or is it heart over mind?•••Ch. 39 Excerpt"Thank you for having the patience with me." Damien broke the silence, almost inaudibly when he began to feel Ella's full body trust him enough to begin to fall unconscious over him.Thinking that Ella wouldn't respond, Damien was ready to close his eyes and also go to sleep, but then he felt Ella's cold hand give him the smallest and most adoring squeeze on his warm fingers, her hum of something incoherent before she stilled completely, her breathing falling deeply.Even in her sleep, she could sense Damien, she would respond even in unconsciousness, and that made Damien's heart skip a beat."To say that you are my whole existence and life would be the biggest understatement, my Ella." Damien sighed, incredulous that he had been blessed with such a beautiful and extraordinary human.

(Cover art is mine. Please do not steal)You've been alone for a couple of months now. You're parents left on a 'business trip' and haven't returned, leaving you all alone in a big house in the middle of the woods, but you don't care. The only thing that's bothering you is your quickly increasing level of boredom. All you have left is to watch television and use your laptop, but eventually your television stops working and your laptop starts to glitch. Normally, you'd get upset and walk away, but this time you're frozen in place as a person appears on the screen, slowly walking closer and closer. Your heart stops when its fingers start to reach out from the screen.
