4:00, the body was rhythmic, non-rhythmic manner Akira awake. Bathroom mirror in front of some of dry eye.
Out the window, the train's roar punctured the night, I rely on scattered light to identify the tracks in this simple line point position. I found that I fell drowsily for four hours, the train completed the transfer head unconsciously the direction of work. Must have been somewhere in Jiangxi.
Lower berth of Xiao Ya, finally quiet in her dreams among the very difficult for you and the entire day and that her carriage romp girls linked. I really wanted to give it giving her a two pigtail, she photographed a few, unfortunately light, light is also, as she slept, as it is cooked! Shaking, the girl reminds me of the "Temptress Moon" in that his childhood soul mate.
At this point, I sat in Shanghai to Guiyang K111 times on the upper berth, 330. Should have been to the territory of Hunan Province. Destination is western Hunan Phoenix. The Huaihua off.
Shanghai's friends not many know that the Phoenix, in addition to 2. One engaged in tourism, a study in Chinese. I further note in the time western Hunan, most of them have a deep understanding of the "western Hunan bandits in mind." So have cautioned, "Take care, a person, where the pretty chaotic."
In fact, there how, did not go, I do not know.
But at least,
Go to Phoenix, to Bordertown, above all, in order to continue their own town complex;
Second, in order to Shen Cong-wen and Mr. Tracy and yellow-dog described in the book;
It certainly should not encounter bandits, had to look at me good luck.
=======================================
Early in the morning, was exceptionally clear atmosphere of the wooden club downstairs sound awakened. Only 6 points, the Phoenix man began the day life. The Tuojiang gentle water is not only shaped the Phoenix were good honest natural disposition, but also gives them hard-working attitude to life. And these two points, despite their "city people" missing out of.
On the balcony, in the face Tuojiang stretching limbs. Morning, a small town, Qin reveals a coolness in the air, a lot of people awake.
After the foot of flowing Tuojiang night, appeared to have clear and quite a lot. All the other side, that corner of the sky, the shore Diaojiaolou, stone bench, and willows are among the reflection in water, with the water flow also want to go, showing the elegant and charming. Waterside stone pier, the wooden club sound remains the same, one after another, and touched the ripples spread to the middle of the river, such as the slender fingers flipping a reflection of those in the water. Fly over the water from time to time posted 12 dragonflies. Tired, and stopped at the exposed surface of the water leaving traces of moss on the stone corner of a short break.
Idly with no out, take a small bench sitting on the balcony, the master of the gentle flowing water, to see just bought a book on western Hunan. Read the yellow wire bridge and South Great Wall, decided to take a look at the afternoon, and the impulse to ride to.
Anshu very friendly, at this moment eating effort, almost an entire Gonglue told me, even to bring up a few hills. Also for their generosity to take his son's bike to me, very excited.
After half an hour ride away, I began to regret it. 24 km of the mountain beyond my imagination, I can only Tuizhe Ju many uphill walk. (The specific details of much suffering, said, it is estimated that we will not like me to go by this crime, in fact, this line length, and there are more mountain, and from cars are more potholes in some sections, less secure; if you really Brother To understand cycling share of freedom, can walk east to the Phoenix guanzhuang那条线路, car less, and the mountain easier. However, if you've been to Longsheng, went to Yangshuo, there is no need to take this too routes of. personally think that the scene in general. However, this route quite suitable for couples, and rent a two-car, slow down leisurely walk along the Tuo River.'ll see a few middle of the river along the way continents, are now developed into a similar paradise, for Visitors BBQ rest.)
Finally a safe journey home three hours later, I owned a car parked at the entrance of the黄丝桥古城. Advertising umbrella flying city gate, a row of the left and right guard at the gates on both sides of a row, it seems like the Emperor Chu Gong. He can not want to take a panoramic view. But do not lose heart, since it is well-preserved ancient city wall, then naturally there are other directions of the door, the fact is, go to the village behind, that under the forest set off up the stairs to the gate, (like Simon), feeling really True enough.
【Tip: go to yellow wire bridge, west of Allah have to go to Phoenix, Phoenix to the CMB's a lot of Allah, do not worry. Allah down tricycles Britain 5 minutes to go. Heard next to a good Miao Village, has not yet fully developed themselves. Stockade where people are quite good. Names can ask the locals. 】
Ride back to Phoenix on the road, after the Great Wall there is a stone Walled south. South Phoenix and Allah the Great Wall in the middle position, was out to defend the Miao, the purpose of separating seedlings and Shumiao built. Now the walls are newly built, and only one beacon towers and passages which are relics Can Yuan. (Also because they prove the existence of the fact that seedlings of the Great Wall.) 45 per ticket to see the pseudo-artifacts, if you are very interested in, but also have not seen the north the Great Wall, go up is still worthwhile. Personal opinion, coated with a layer of the vicissitudes of life under the twilight wall look at the past will be more flavor.
【Tip: Due to location of the road side, if the self-driving, chartered, or, like me, innocently, cycling, you can stop at the ticket office and shoot the gate, and that the last remaining beacon. 】
Southern Great Wall is only 1 km to the direction of Allah, there is a Miao Village, the locals call shitouzhai. In the village labor to repair now, "a modern version of" the Great Wall. Write here, think of the Great Wall since the beginning of the Warring States Period lap, thousands of years, defense purposes consistent; Now renovated, it became at a purely tourist attractions. I do not know hi is a worry.
An old woman, because I gave her grandson a candy, they insisted I sit and chat into the room. Chat in his house, a 5, share of 3 acres 5 subdivision, the per capita is not rich. Piece of agricultural income should be fairly constraints. Sure enough, she told me the child's parents go to work in Wenzhou, unfortunately, injured daughter out of everyone in the injured arm. "Fortunately now give money to repair the Great Wall." She smiled to the simple and honest. I reminded her; "It will also have complete a day of it." For me the answer made to this point does not seem to appear in her thinking too. Looking around the room, door stood large color TV, as well as a vcd, and audio-visual equipment, it is new; another table, a broken sofa and a few small bench, very old, these are almost all the belongings of one.
Phoenix snacks a street in many cities are actually quite similar snacks 1 Street, a street stand. Or less the same booth, lay a plate of crawfish removing back ribs and many other dishes available for people to choose materials, several of the girls across the guitar pocket between the pitches of their songs show a table, there is a back back baskets, clothing ragged old man. I had learned from the stall holders in the Phoenix poorer or Hmong, like the old man, 80-year-old son died in a car accident and his wife whether she left, she was pulling two granddaughters, all day, rely on scavenging for a living ... ...
Phoenix is a dream stage, the night slowly pull up, dream theater began. Some swing, some true, some are broken ... ...
=======================================
TIPS:
1. Phoenix is located in western Hunan Province, belongs to a Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture. Unreasonable train, from the Autonomous Region capital Jishou and Huaihua car accessibility.
2. Local not coins in circulation, a friend from Shanghai to be more than ready to face the small denominations.
3. When you go around some of the attractions when the village may wish to bring some small candy, local children are innocent and cute, they will not refuse you in good faith. If you are an enthusiastic people person photography, it is more important.
4. Phoenix has a 150 yuan package, including the city outside of the eight scenic spots. If everybody is very attractive you, everybody want to go, that 150 yuan is worth it. If there is not your interest, you need not buy. The two of them the most expensive one is the South Wall, 45 yuan; Qi Liang Tung, 30 yuan.
5. Phoenix has a lot of ice cream, snacks, ice rice noodles, green bean soup is my favorite. 1 yuan, 5-corner, eating can be a cool.
6. Live in Phoenix, be sure to choose the two sides along the Tuo Diaojiaolou, a person think we should try to choose the location near the upper reaches of the water relatively clear. Off-season price of 20 yuan a person a bed, then rose to 60 yuan a season, and sometimes have to fight a ground floor.
7. To visit the surrounding villages, after paying the tickets, there will be tour guides take you whole. Do not need to additionally guide fee. And I met several of the guides are Luo Village, the shelves pond, and mountain river Miao Village, are quite good. Although I was the only tourists, they are still warm zone you go many places, that many stories about their village. Tend to accompany one is a half-day. Shan Jiang Miao like family for me, a person performing a toast song, playing Flower Drum also jumped Zhugan Wu, so I really feel flattered.
