Chapter 103 Who is the fastest?
The warm sunshine shines on the lake, placing a layer of gold on the scales and blue waves.
The lake ripples in the distance, and willow branches are flying nearby. At this moment, Weiming Lake is like a beautiful woman with all kinds of charm.
After a summer of silence, Weiming Lake in Yanjing University once again welcomed students. Many freshmen were happily taking photos by the lake, making the banks of Weiming Lake very lively.
"Mu Yun, I have come to Yanda, and I am now sitting on the shore of Weiming Lake. Where are you now?" Lin Ban sat alone on a stone chair by Weiming Lake and said softly.
He was used to talking with Mu Yun all day long. Once he had no familiar person around him, he was really uncomfortable and would always talk to himself involuntarily, as if he was still following the beautiful woman who didn't like to talk but was good at listening.
He still remembers that when he and Mu Yun mentioned Weiming Lake in Yanjing University, Mu Yun once exclaimed a little enviously: "Weiming Lake, a lake that does not have a name, is famous all over the world. If you don't fight, you are fighting. There is a little 'haul' hidden in this name..."
So the first thing Lin Ban did when he came to Yenching University was not to report it, but to see Weiming Lake.
It can be regarded as a look for Mu Yun.
Weiming Lake is the largest artificial lake on the campus of Yanjing University. It is located in the north and has a U-shaped shape. There are sculptures of flip-tailed stone fish in the south of the lake, and the island in the center is connected to the north shore by the bridge. There is a stone boat at the southern end of the island in the middle of the lake, and there are also Zhongting, Linhuxuan, Flower Temple and Edgar Snow Tomb on the south shore, and Boya Tower on the east shore. It is one of the iconic landscapes of Yanjing University.
The Weiming Lake area was part of Shuchun Garden in the Qing Dynasty. The head of the household was a corrupt official and Kun, so it was built very luxuriously. However, after searching, changing the owner and fighting, only this bend of lake water was left. More than 80 years ago, this place became part of Yanjing University. The school gave many names for this lake, but was not satisfied enough. The last professor proposed to name it Weiming Lake, which was approved. It was this special name that added countless imagination space to this artificial lake and eventually became a good story.
The water of Weiming Lake is quite clear and open. There are many ancient trees beside the lake and are full of greenery. Although this kind of lake can be seen everywhere in China, it seems strange and unique to have such a bay of clear water on campus. What's more, there is a story and history in this lake. There are some Qing Dynasty ruins next to the lake, and there are also complementary Boya Tower reflected in the blue waves, which finally forms a perfect scene of "lake light and tower shadow".
Boya Tower is located in the southeast of Weiming Lake. It is a 13-level dense eaves pagoda. This was a well dug by Yanjing University in July 1924 in order to solve the problem of daily water digging. In order to prevent the well from being disgusting, the designer decided to build a tower-style water tower. According to the appearance of the ancient Lanting Tower in Tongzhou, it took the style of dense eaves bricks in the Liao Dynasty to build this unique pagoda with a total of 13 levels and a height of 37 meters. It can be said that it is a stone turning into gold. It is a stroke of magic, and it has created an eternal classic in the highest academic institution in China.
Because Boya Tower has become a symbol of Yenching University, no building in Yenching University can be higher than Boya Tower. Basically, when walking in most parts of the campus, you can see the spire of the tower by looking up.
Lin Ban walked around Weiming Lake alone and found that the lake didn't look too big, but it was still quite far away after walking around. After walking around, it took nearly half an hour, which shows that Yenching University itself is quite large.
It’s a pity that Boya Tower is no longer open to the public now, so Lin Ban can only watch it outside.
After seeing Mominghu, Lin Ban went to complete the registration procedures, threw down his luggage at the Xuesu Center, and then went to see the last attraction in the "Yita Lake Map", Yanda Library.
"One Tower Lake Map" refers to three beautiful attractions, namely Boya Tower, Weiming Lake and Yanda Library. People who are not familiar with it often mistakenly think it is "a mess" for the first time.
"Yan Da, it's really big..." Lin Ban couldn't help but sigh.
Yanjing University was founded in 1898 and was originally named Jingshi University. Its establishment marks the beginning of modern higher education in China and has always been recognized as the highest institution of learning in China. Perhaps because of this, Yanjing University's territory is very special. Not only does the main campus cover an area of 5,085 acres, but the campus directly includes Shuchun Garden, Shaoyuan, Langrun Garden, Jingchun Garden, Minghe Garden, Weixiu Garden, Changchun Garden, Chengze Garden and other famous royal gardens in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. The campus is adjacent to the Old Summer Palace in the north and facing the Summer Palace in the west. Therefore, Yanxia University campus is also called Yanyuan.
Of course, these royal gardens have long been looted by artillery fire and have no skin. Fortunately, after they become Yan University campus, their pattern is still there and their charm remains. Therefore, Yan University has the grand momentum of royal gardens and the unique beauty of Jiangnan mountains and rivers. The campus is surrounded by mountains and rivers, connected by lakes, interspersed with embankments and islands, and the scenery is pleasant. With those pavilions, towering ancient trees, birds singing and flowers blooming, it can be said that the scenery is different and the scenery is picturesque, making Linban dazzled.
After getting used to the small campus of Feisha County No. 1 Middle School, Lin Ban almost got lost when he came to such a big school for the first time. Fortunately, Lin Ban was a relatively cautious person. Before coming to Yan University, he had searched a lot of information online and found a map of Yan University, and memorized it with his strong memory ability. So before others arrived in Yanjing, they basically remembered all the buildings and landscapes in Yan University, and naturally also included famous landscapes such as "Yita Lake Map".
So although he was a rookie just reported, Lin Ban had already wandered around the campus easily and experiencedly, and compared the map in his mind with the buildings in front of him, trying hard to remember these roads and paths.
It is one thing to just remember the map, and it is another thing to be able to walk. Walking in this vast campus that surprised Lin Ban, Lin Ban still felt like he couldn't find the north for a while, just like a deer running into the Grand View Garden.
At Feisha County No. 1 Middle School, Lin Ban has been a sensational figure recently. The teachers regard him as the pride of the school and the students regard him as a role model to learn from. And here, no one knows who Lin Ban is. Even when they signed up, the teachers and senior brothers who received them only mechanically helped them with the admission procedures. They said nothing unnecessary and hardly expressed any surprise or attention to Lin Ban, the top student in the liberal arts in the province.
Lin Ban felt a little neglected and a little depressed.
You know, after he was admitted to Yan University, he had a particularly glorious summer vacation. Not only did the provincial, municipal and county TV stations report on a large scale, but the county education committee and school leaders also came to congratulate him personally, not to mention the relatives and friends who were constantly congratulating him. Now, on the Yan University campus, no one cares about him or cares about him. No matter how glorious he was before, he is now starting from scratch. At Yan University, he is just a student who is so ordinary that he cannot be more ordinary...
In fact, this is a common feeling for freshmen in colleges, because they are basically students with good grades in middle schools, and are considered popular in class or school. But in colleges, they become very ordinary students, just like a long-standing national university library on the ground. After the new library was completed in 1998, the total area reached 50,000 square meters, with more than 4,000 reading seats, and a total collection capacity of more than 6 million copies. It is the largest museum in Asian universities and the pride of Peking University. Therefore, together with Weiming Lake and Boyata, they became the three treasures of Peking University, and they made the phrase "One Tower Lake Map".
Lin Ban just looked out for a while and didn't go in. He had just finished his hard study in high school, and now he had a headache when he saw the book, so he stood outside the library and paid attention to the girls floating around.
As soon as school started, the school was very lively, with new students dragging their luggage everywhere, and old students in a hurry. Some of the new students could not even find the way, so they asked the old students for directions everywhere.
Lin Ban didn't carry his luggage, and many new students regarded them as old students, so many people asked him for directions, including some girls. However, most of these girls are glasses, and most of them look very ordinary, and even some dinosaur-level figures... Lin Ban has not yet discovered the beautiful beauty.
When Lin Ban missed Mu Yun, Bai Qingling, Shen Yuyan, Li Lexue and the others very much.
Although I know the principle that "color is emptiness", which boy doesn't like to see beauties? After all, this is human nature, just as natural as humans like to appreciate flowers.
Just as he thought of Li Lexue, Li Lexue called: "Brother, where are you?"
"I'm near Yanda Library." Lin Ban suddenly felt very happy and said with a smile, "Xiaoxue, I'll ask you, who is the fastest person in the world?"
"That Powell from Jamaica?" Li Lexue hesitated for a while and replied.
"No, it's Cao Cao." Lin Ban smiled.
"Why?" Li Lexue said in confusion.
"Because you said Cao Cao, Cao Cao will arrive." Lin Ban smiled, "Xiaoxue, it seems that you are really stupid in your studies. You have never even heard of this widely circulated brain teaser."
"Bah!" Li Lexue spat hatefully, "Hate, who are you chewing my tongue with?"
As soon as this sentence was said, Li Lexue felt something was wrong, her face suddenly turned red, and she thought, "Oh, if you say something to the bad guy Lin Ban, will it remind him of kissing? I'm so annoying!"
This is not because Li Lexue is too thoughtful, after all, women in love always have very rich associations.
"No. I'm alone." Lin Ban replied with a smile, but he didn't have such rich associations.
Li Lexue's heart suddenly felt sweet.
Because from Cao Cao's words, Li Lexue understood that Lin Ban was thinking of her just now.
Although "thinking her" and "thinking her" are different, Li Lexue automatically ignored the word in the middle...
"Brother, you are waiting for me at the library gate, and I'll come to find you right away!" Li Lexue reminded.
"You'd better get faster, because there are two beauties trying to catch me now." Lin Ban joked.
"Go to die!" Li Lexue spat with laughter and cry, but couldn't help but speed up.

(This book is like "The Extreme Potential", and the protagonist also went to Peking University (this book was changed to Yan University), so some descriptions of campus scenery have been borrowed partly from the content of the previous book, so as not to check the information. The previous book ended hastily, and college life was basically not available, so this book would make up for the regrets, haha.
Chapter completed!
