Flying stone

I.
Spent time in Beijing, Tianjin, two days after the mediocre, I have resolved to leave to the Simatai Great Wall. Maybe I need some stimulation to inspire me to continue to go on the excitement.

As broad minded as the people of the capital city of the capital, always go to the station for me to bring a lot of trouble. When I came out from the train station, after several twists and turns to the map marked the Dongzhimen bus station, the station can have disappeared, torn down the original is being rebuilt, so she began to ask around in a big circle be considered in a inconspicuous place to find a place to go Miyun car. Bought a ticket, the confused for a long time really do not know whether any other vehicle, the original to the car are bus Miyun, China and Pakistan, transit, full range, prices vary, suitable for all levels of consumer demand, getting my way fans can not be have lost car.

If I were a car, I would like to be a happy Beijingers, leaving Beijing so far, are not required to pay a penny toll in the capital on the capital!

Miyun County, quite pleasant to the eye, building is very modern, very green and very quiet, yes I have seen in China, one of the most pleasure to the eye of the county, to Japan to have the time, I will make a good feeling it, on foot, step on bicycles, with my family (or lover) drag stroll hand, are more e era way.

One and a half hour later the car to the Miyun station, a bit far away from the town, in the National Road, next to Chengde. A lot of surface parked on the roadside soliciting, the hour is late, I have to find the car as soon as possible because as can be asked a lot of cars, not the direction to Simatai. Was finally asked to have one side is willing to go to Simatai, I bypass the village, but the fare should be 20 yuan, the normal price is 10 yuan, the driver asked me if there are no comments, I would like to no other people on board the views of I still have all these? In this way, very uncomfortable to sit on the back side of the way and could not move to bump into Simatai Village, a small village with 200 people.

At this point, the sky was dark, the driver pulled me into a peasant family, market price 10 yuan a bed owner aunt actually want to take me 40! I promised to only give her 20, because they know the driver to eat a rebate, so I can not open the mouth of 10 yuan, she said that 20 to 20 bar, as if giving a big discount to me, I did not tell her that I know stay here Quotes. This evening, the smooth come to Simatai village, the driver really should thank you kindly, walking around in a circle big turnaround came over gave me a man, but also implicated the car others. I gave 50 yuan aunt, until the next day to leave her home, she had no money to find my meaning, I sake of her. I am sad here, and morals, but also hope that my case of people only a special case.

With "shock, dangerous, extraordinary," known as Simatai Great Wall, located in Beijing's Miyun County in the northern part of the town gubeikou a total length of 19 km, a total of watch tower 35, is the only original section of the Ming Dynasty retained the ancient Great Wall, Qi Jiguang in this governor is created when you build. This period of the Great Wall has been identified by UNESCO as "the original Great Wall." Simatai Great Wall to Simatai Reservoir is divided into East and West is bounded by two cross-valley Suspension Bridge like Changhong, the east-west. Western section of the mountain than the gentle, 20 watch towers still well-preserved; eastern section of the Great Wall winding ups and downs, the magnificent, in the mountain's summit clouds with 15 (actually should be 17) watch tower. , "Fairy House" building beautiful, white marble arches carved with devoted married couple to spend relief, too, "Fairy House" that is not valued at more than m long, on both sides of cliffs cliffs, only a brick of the wide "bridge" over the bridge, who can real hero for the Golden City. "Wangjing House" is Beijing's high point, elevation 986 meters, board Wangjing floor, visitors can look east "Wulingbitong snow", Seibo majestic Great Wall, north beyond the Great Wall concept of style, south balcony capital lights. (This text is my excerpt from the Internet down, only to facilitate us to know the Simatai, hereby explanation.)

Two,
Go to Simatai Transportation Tips: In the holiday Beijing Xuanwumen, Dongsishitiao have 12 cars travel up to Simatai; or to Dongzhimen station to Miyun and then transfer by car, Miyun to Simatai surface 10 yuan, if the chartered from the Miyun Simatai 120 round trip (drivers asking price can sit 67 people); also available at the Xizhimen the direction of the car ride to Chengde to Simatai junction to get off sub-surface or a motorcycle into the Simatai Village (country roads I go further there are 10 kilometers).

Village of the night, reaching not see spank black, even the stars are not willing to give alms point of light to shine on my lonely heart at this time, it seems to see the sunrise tomorrow, the hope is gone. I do not know when, the road above the skies began to move to have sounded a happy person children in the fireworks display, but this time the voice and brightly colored, but also Chen Chu of the Village of silence and never seem to tear the night did not break.

The name of flashlight in the darkness, walking trail to the road side, there is a newly opened not long, and where the most luxurious hotel, lively fireworks is rising from here. A group of young people coming from Beijing should be a unit of the organization FB activities, they ignited a bonfire in the yard, and drink and sing, but no one is seen dancing, anyway, very happy that it can be. There is also a small couple, probably as a result of boredom, as I come to watch the bar, everyone nodded a good letter.

Before going to sleep, do not forget to inquire about the owner's son, the hills of the Great Wall, the answer is,
"Great Wall of the mountain a little bit dangerous, but only from the Great Wall, under the Great Wall."
"I came to listen in the car when the driver said, could be leading to the foot of the mountain footpath Wangjing floor."
"Where there will be! In addition to the Great Wall there is no other way down the mountain."

Is that these so I found it very useful for thousands of miles but with the difference between the actual situation in the reminder, the next day climbing the Great Wall, almost put me into a hopeless situation! Later learned that, although he has lived in the Great Wall, but they never are never up to the top of the Wangjing floor! Through this lesson first-hand experience, I am more vigilant themselves, he did not personally experienced something and not give to others, in particular those kind of very positive response! !

A night without dreams, just because several days to run around.

Qingchenwudian half-up, six o'clock start, the back, only a small backpack camera, film, and two of water, I can not even add that physical fitness did not eat breakfast, I take it for granted that in my years of climbing experience, As long as two or three hours later, I should be able to come back. Of his negligence, but also so that I have subsequently had enough headaches.

6:10, the gate into the scenic area, where it was guarded day and night, not diligent work attitude, just for the private pockets of fat. They collected my 30 dollars, just give me a tear yesterday, already passed the invalid ballot papers, I have objections, they actually said is that this vote! At this point do not come forward to fight with the corrupt elements, I feel ashamed, so in line under the disclosure in order to wash sins. There were earlier asked about the mountains do? Answer is half an hour before a group of young people to get in. (they embezzled a result, they ticketed 300 yuan), it seems I was not diligent.

The first is almost dry riverbed along the walk is called the Simatai Reservoir 2, to have slipped a place after the right turn (straight ahead is the west to the Simatai Great Wall Jinshanling Great Wall and the direction, climb the other side of the Great Wall, with its own climbing little difference between the stairs, I do not want anything in this description), and then up the mountains, after a climb, the went to the Great Wall, and the first entry is the second floor of the eastern part (each a beacon on the ground to be called the floor, refers to the second floor of a second beacon), a Louju its close. As the era of long, Simatai Minister of East and West Valley City, has been among the alluvial silt to completely separate, and is said to be in the valley of the reservoir at the next dig deep to find the Great Wall more than 10 meters of the wall. It seems the years not only forgive, do not spare even the Great Wall, ah!

(Figure 1 for the Simatai Great Wall, the first floor of the eastern part of the second floor, distant architecture to create a mineral water factory, Hebei, big brake landscape thing. Figure 2 do not remember the name for the floor, as if a "tourist stop" at film, and because of the weather is not good, all of these photos are not clear, a bit confused regret)

Three,

Looking around, empty, I always liked the wilderness I am the only one exclusive that no one scenario, this loneliness has always let me forget that this lonely so I learned a deeper level of thinking, such a beautiful result of escape uproar sky. . . . . . .

From the second floor began to climb up mood is relaxed, the gait is light, and this feeling lasted until I was about six, the seventh floor office to catch up with the first of that group of young people into the mountains, after an instant, OK feeling, it was immediate shaking of the shadows, attacking the bulk of the disappeared. I also learn from ethereal nothingness in the back to reality. Among them, physical bad ginseng, poor, already rely on the ground without taking to abide by the Great Wall, has always been good with me go, "tourist stop" at.

Unexpectedly encountered a group of head-on last night at the Great Wall on the overnight foreign tourists, they also can be enough, and sleep underground, no seats not being over-night and say "hello" to international friendship and exchange, lest they feel the Chinese people manners.

In front of the Great Wall, incomplete, messy, ancient even experienced a bit to decline, such as a flood after the snow wind and rain take care of the elderly person, his face filled with only the years of vicissitudes, and his tears had dried, so people do not feel to his pain, his eyes had been sluggish, so people thought that he had no idea. . . . His soul with the life of the Guys and Dolls, as boundless loneliness.

In about nine or ten floor office, I have to catch up with the same group of people among the last two boys. We climb together after a few simple hello and go "tourist stop" office (seems to be Shier Lou bar), they decided to go back. When they learned that I would like to come to the highest point, they say, "then we help you shoot ZHANG Xiang-bar, or else to the above, do you want to make nobody to help you photographed." Although I am more hated his own head appears in the camera lens, especially in the natural environment, I do not like to see his pig's head that does not harmonize with nature Bimei, but well-intentioned people is difficult but, we put a few decent, ultra-graceful posture movements ugly Fu style, thanked the people, everyone Yangshou farewell. Later I felt that this simple farewell, a bit like a farewell ah.

Wangjing floor, I want you closer, closer you are lonely. Piece of "tourist stop" sign, it will only frighten timid persons soft legs, but I can not! I know very few people can now approached you, but I just that little part of them, I soon will be a lonely monk identity, approached the lonely you, ah! At this time I still high morale, still full of ambition, still enjoying the Commando of the vanity.

I a little ant to climb the Empire State Building to the ambitions, continued his climb. At this point, I do not know how far ahead, but I do not know how difficult the road ahead, and I just remember the phrase, "Wangjing floor can only be under the Great Wall from the Great Wall!" Up to now this, I so easily land on the up, and I can more easily go on underground. My ignorance, let me depending on the difficulty will be encountered, such as trash, my discretionary, so that their imagined If you turn the clock back several decades, I can even grab crossing the Dadu River, like the heroes of the same crossing tiesuoqiao.

From Shier Lou (General Building) to the 13 floor, there is no suspense to climbed up along the Great Wall of incomplete rundown, people sadness, the United States and therefore the sky.

From 13 F to 14 F, the road a bit challenging, but still do not feel any difficulty in the existence of four weeks except in self back in the empty situation, I was back to what I wanted the environment. Just do not see the front end of Canqiang, so I began to worry Wangjing House, How far are you in the end? From loneliness to a lonely, Should we do so far?

Four,

From 14 F to 15 F, I think can only be described as climbing walls, or rock climbing, and this what the Great Wall, which is called ah, evidently only a ridge on a wall two bricks thick wall in the extended! Even worse, this time not as the beginning of the wall as the only high, but suddenly, on suddenly, the often have meters high and the vertical height difference to me to hop on the bounce under. If every day to climb the wall, sooner or later the degradation of a mountain monkey.

A wall in front of a 90-degree slope is almost stopped by the way, is on or not, let me think about several times. Later, I learned that it is the "ladder." Open bow arrows without looking back! On! Chengneng The bear spirit at this time does not allow me to give up halfway thinking. The most abominable thing in my climbing ladder in the process of a long, dark and surprisingly there is a multi-legged reptiles crawling around in front, I have always been sick of these small animals, but unfortunately the occasion, and only carefully released a hand, find the root of small dead branches to the cliff to pick it dare to continue to climb. At the same time, some never seen gigantic ants also like to climb on you to welcome your arrival.

Finally was climbing the "ladder-top", looked back and suddenly my heart sank, "finished! How would I go to stay?" Cliff climbing easy and difficult, and made a climb of the people know, especially the kind of close to 90 degrees the steepness of the cliff, in the absence of basic climbing equipment, rope and other circumstances, should go down is very difficult. You can free-hand climbing up a cliff, but it is difficult to hand down! Especially for me not to make any professional training in people.

Should be a reminder that, at this time on both sides of the Great Wall, are the cliff, in particular by the side of Beijing, there have no other could be found, Hebei, and that side is also heavily forested, ordinary people this, feet can not soft, is already a rare situation indeed. Originally I also intend to Hebei down to the side, see if he can wear a grove in the previous, until the highest point of the Wangjing floor, but because of his wearing only shorts, they dare not rashly go, reptiles and insects where many hands powerless machete sort of open-tool, do not want their bare feet tortured, not forced, I think it is better to climb the wall along the Great Wall will be better.

It can be said, came "ladder", I had no thought I would give up, I'll be able to Wangjing on the floor, I fear only, how can I down! I hope to find a trail down the mountain, but both sides of the thick jungle and steep cliff, this time seems to be a mockery of my ignorance.

When we go out for convenience jacket shorts sexy dress me much suffering, hands, thighs, calves on the number of scratches, I do not remember, a few are also numerous, but did not feel pain, when the later to see their hands and fingers stretch of six that have been blood DC when I was a bit perplexing, as if life has left the body, independent living, how would not feel pain? Drugs such as cotton along the way with things at this time has chosen to throw at the foot of the mountain belt did not come.

"Ladder" is up 15 House, Fairy House (later found out), Are we to see the fairies, come through the test of climbing ladder? Up to the Fairy House, it can be seen standing on a Beacon Hill neighborhood to the highest point to the bleak loneliness, which is Wangjing House do? I am not sure, can only guess. (Later found out, it is Wangjing House)

Fairy House floor this section to the Wangjing walls, known as a "bridge", and slope far from 14 F to 15 F-off "ladder" So steep, but the wall seems to be more narrow, only two hands, under palm wide, on both sides of The cliffs are even more alarming, passed it, just need the courage of its more difficult than crawling to "ladder" more easily, as long as the feet are not soft, crawling slowly along the wall, can not be long before more than to Wangjing floor.

Five,

Suddenly, an ominous burst of inexplicable sense of the passage of the upper body, the "to Wangjing floor can only be under the Great Wall from the Great Wall," It's one word I wake up to this time Wangjing floor right in front, but still can not see anything that can be found down the mountain trail signs, the original feel of hoping to find a path down the opportunity, this time is almost completely evaporated. Take a look at the time, just after eight o'clock, from the time I entered the nearly two-hour scenic area, and scenic area staff member also began to work, now and then in the tourists, they can not be passed Shier Lou, and scenic spots please years of professional security in a lock to prohibit any person through.

I think I was a good time to sit down and relax, and heart a little bit at a loss, I sat in the bridge office, did not forget the photo shoot a few not clear (at the time was cloudy), we can see that a few Simatai Great Wall Photos are also filmed at that time.

I was trapped! I have to admit this reality. Fortunately, there are cell phone signal (the signal from the Hebei), who can help! But I did not fight, very early days still, I think, should there will be a way. I do not want to go so far to Wangjing floor, but left behind a failed outcome. In fact, I very much time, she would be able to have so little sense of panic fear, but did not, did not think his cold-blooded to the point where their lives will be ignored.

I am a distant friend called to tell me the status quo, I do not know I was too relaxed for speaking freely, or the other still asleep do not wake up completely, while others feel that the status quo, I actually pity there is no point when I am angry, hang up the phone, I think I was stingy, and I do not do not be angry?

I was walking along the bridge to observe the ants, the Great Wall to stay seated, look around the uninhabited overlooking the scenery. . . . . I can not find a better so that his thoughts and calm approach. When I rested up, get tired, I climbed Wangjing floor, and then down, if from a stuck atop the Great Wall on the wearing of Hebei, under the direction of the forests, as long as the vision did not leave the Great Wall, not lost, we should still have a chance down , the time still early, my plan is like this.

Although the foot of the walls, seconds seconds are likely to lose their focus because of his look and let himself die, but I did not feel any danger, like yourself through a little more than a road car like that if he be careful, will not be the car hit.

Time went by in the past, still there is no deserted, I am now ready to help any person is not the worst. Should be the most comfortable cloudy days, this time made me feel a bit uncomfortable.

"Young man, fast down the above easier to go from here!" It's not a dream, right? Some people sound? ! ! Some people really are talking, looking around a bit around, but can not find the sound source. "Some people do?" This is probably the most in my life a foolish question. Then I remember the dialogue, but I know that is true some people, it should be the direction of the woods from the foot of the mountain onto the past, was a female voice, age should also not small, speaking dialect closer to Mandarin tone , but I can not quite understand. The foot of the mountains may be what people do, my height at the ridge, and she should be found in the foot of the mountain far away me.

I felt someone walking in the woods in the voice, and eyes to the other side of the forest, Hebei hard to scan, if there is a blue figure in the rock, although not true, but the loud noise through the forest when it is quite clear. I feel suddenly happier together, Kazakhstan, Heaven always leaves people a way out! At this point, the most authentic to appreciate the meaning of these words!

Six,

"There can be on the way to the balcony above it?"
"Can be! You down the bar, above a person is no good to go."
"Can it?" (At this point there are 34 meters high walls bar)
"You be careful to find a place easy to climb down the next!"

This is how scenarios like the description of those martial arts where the same? Only heard and not seen, man!

I found a place to be shelved a toe jump down, but also refused to take him a few more bloodstain addition of Tim.
"There way?" Eyes are both trees but there are road signs.
"Yes, you can see out of that."

Wear clothing with a distance he, too, could not remember how far, and probably only 10 meters it, finally seen in the trees there is a narrow winding path, but also to see who has been a voice of the tips of my aunt, one dressed in blue colored T-shirt for the elderly, a portable one basket in one hand and the machete. Woods are too dense, no wonder I do not see the Great Wall has always been above this is not too far away from the trail.

Madame X Lan Jiao Liu has 60 old, is on the hill at the foot of east slope of Luanping County of Chengde, Hebei Village (phonetic), she was taken to the mountains points, pine mushroom and climb up to me selling water Wangjing floor, visitors, small food. According to her foot down and said there are 20 a few households, she introduced me to a lot of stories related to Simatai Great Wall, and even later in the Wangjing floor in very adept at picking up a camera to help me shoot a few, like, "I to help people who are so often photographed it! "

With the aunt behind, no minutes will go up Wangjing floor, aunt told me that it is Wangjing floor.

Wangjing floor, Beijing's highest point, I finally approached you.

Wangjing floor was blocked with the glaring red-brick it upstairs a few doors, whole body is also surrounded by water up, as in a dusk of the old body, added a new eye-catching with a few scars.

At this point, I think of a story, a child, the doctor told him blood transfusions to someone else to start he would not, in the others was finally persuaded that promised to donate blood, such as blood donation finished, the children asked the doctor, "Doctor, How long will I die? "that the donated blood will be a dead child, or courage to others to donate their own blood. I suddenly feel that they just made sense, like a blood donor who thought that the children will die, as had been thought he took the road of no return, there is no fear, did not give up, has been away and did not know what is the purpose ,. . . .

Even in this matter has gone for a long time to come, I often think of this experience, I always missed the starting point waves. Perhaps in the eyes of many people, this is simply nothing, the Great Wall is always hard to take a lot of people can climb to go, but, I have been self-righteous belief that, then I was brave, is fearless, and it is ignorance The.

"Night lights here can Choujian Tiananmen." Aunt explained to me that, I also inadvertently remark but the true extent of scrutiny, and only feel excited. Climb up the feeling of climbing the highest point is not the same! To see the Great Wall near dangerous to think of just soul trapped in a flyover at the scene below, and then overlooking four vast woodlands, there is an indescribable feeling a sense of release.

(The photo in my 15 between the House floor with 16 "bridge" to go back and forth, it is not itself able to secure down, put this bag to commemorate the photo)

VII

Learned from the aunt mouth, usually there are some courageous people who will climb up from the bridge at Wangjing floor, but since the accident last year, too, there have been four people falling to the precipice, and could not find even the dead, the management area on the In Shier Lou (General Building) at the beginning it was guarded, no longer gives visitors climb the. Therefore, in the future to climb over Shier Lou Simatai Great Wall, you have to come early because as, but remember, safety first!

In the aunt's help, I sorted out the two on the floor to the Wangjing non-traditional route. A direction from the east slope of Hebei Village (transliteration), located at Simatai Reservoir north, if it is coming from the direction of Beijing, it is necessary through the scenic spot gate, how to escape the management staff, to see you Baxianguohai of. Another car from the Miyun first eight Zhuang (transliteration, because Aunt illiterate, no way), obtain other vehicles to the Tang Zhai, walk up the hill from the Tang Zhai, probably an hour can be Wangjing floor, Tang Zhai There farmers to stay.

Wangjing House is a 16 floor, but also Beijing Simatai Great Wall as well as the highest point, and then east to a little bit, that is, 17 F, and F is not high, from the 16 floor is very easy to go on from here and then south down the mountain Tang Zhai is a. 16 House floor with 17 between the walls on both sides of the Great Wall has been basically flush with the walkway, and 17 F, and then east a bit, as well as the Great Wall in the extended until the cliff at, people come to an end, there is a non-fly non-mosquito insects dense overwhelming hit to you, scary jump quickly to escape.

In the 17 floor, the event came from Beijing, two of the deaf (a good start ask them about their response to only a few nobody wake up), a man and a woman, after a way to use writing to communicate, I discovered that they are a special school students, is the direction from the Tang Zhai path up, and last night the night before in the 17 floor, is now ready to down the mountain, intending to Tang Zhai another night and then returned to Beijing. Long Wudasancu men, but the face of charity, woman is the occasional friendly smile, then quietly on one side and eating solid food to a man who may have 80 liters backpack up and down, filled with full, all I do not know how he is carrying it uphill. Suddenly, I am a bit touched, because these two strange friends. In their face, those of us looking over the health of others who do not know how to live healthy lives, but I do not know how to value their own health.

At about ten o'clock, I called aunt up, she was looking for the following pine mushrooms, intends to join the direction of the path down the mountain from Hebei. Just know that two friends have set off from the other direction down the. We parting like a long time unless a friend like the reunion.

Open in front of Madame, and she cut down a tree to me as a walking stick, so to go from under the mountain to the more trustworthy. Aunt said that when the Spring Festival, when up the mountain one day she met two leopards, the results are not afraid to dare go into the mountains for a month, which the forests have that wild animals are also normal. Walked halfway up the mountain, the back is expected to see the ladder, I do not know danger near a distance, only see the risk. I really do not dare to believe that I could actually climb it!

All the way down both sides of the bushes, when Tim gave me more of that point of wounds is nothing at the moment, things. About half an hour later, her parents came to a big, old people greeting I drink is a real hit up the well of water, ma'am home is very simple, as in the past I have seen people in those villages, like poverty, but let them try even harder to love life.

Bid farewell to ma'am, I have been walking along the lane, twenty minutes later, again came to the Great Wall on the second floor at this time, visitors increased recently, and I again was packed with tourists drowned, while submerged, as well as my Not long ago, undulating mood.

When I was on the overpass Department, the spirit, when trapped, it is never seen such a strange voice, let me out of trouble, in a sense, ma'am, is my savior, in this deep gratitude While the aunt is very likely a lifetime will not see these words on the Internet.

12:00, returned to the farm last night into the hostel, 12:30 left Simatai village, started my trip next stop, Chengde. (End)

(Figure 1 for the aunt, my savior. Figure 2 as a "bridge", the distance for the Fairy House, it is a pity that the most dangerous of the ladder area in which I actually did not shoot a piece of the 。。。。, in all the Great Wall, the I have learned, in addition to Simatai, there nock the Great Wall is truly count as the Great Wall went through the Great Wall, the Great Wall look at the other, can only use two words to describe, that is, mediocre.)
