Water margin, Lin Chong, Snow Mountain Temple, scenery description
Lin Chong's Snow Mountain God Temple was a scene in the Chinese classic novel Water Margins, which described Lin Chong being trapped in the Snow Mountain Temple and fighting with the wind and snow. The scenery of the Snow Mountain God Temple described in the book was as follows: There was a tall tower in front of the main hall of the Snow Mountain God Temple called the "Mountain Suppressing Pagoda". The tower was made of iron chains, and each chain was tied with a big iron bell. The sound of the bell ringing was crisp and pleasant. Looking down from the top of the tower, one could see a vast snowfield. The mountains in the distance were like a huge iceberg. In the temple, Lin Chong had a fierce battle with the wind and snow. He wore leather armor and held a spear in his hand as he faced the flying snowflakes and the sudden gale as he walked step by step towards the top of the tower. His breathing became rapid and his skin was numb from the cold, but he knew that as long as he could climb to the top of the tower, he would be able to get out of this predicament. In the end, he succeeded. At the top of the tower, he saw a beautiful lake with clear water like a mirror and snow-capped mountains around it. The scenery was spectacular. He took a deep breath and felt the fresh air and warm sunlight, as if all his troubles had been forgotten.
