[Two years ago to write something, but the memories are still OK so far]
Phoenix trip
Once a girl said to me: you look me in the eye ......
Looked at her eyes, I seem to see the simplicity of the Phoenix border town.
During this trip, I had given a friend a letter which say: "depression has been too long and find a place to seek a tsunami, look for Okawa Toyama, relied on chest emotion, looking pure heaven, eyes light world, freely roam the five lakes, seeking a physical and mental Ju drunk. "Shanghai, a little complacent about the great city, apart from high-rise buildings is that people, not the weight of history, working for so long, and my heart has quite impetuous, would like to find a place to wash the minds of dry and hot.
The boss is easy to trip Eric, because of his multi-running, we noble gesture, such a sea of gold in the 10.1 season, Sleeper 29 hours across the Zhejiang, Jiangxi, through numerous tunnels in the mountains, came to Hunan's Jishou. On the way, in addition to the well-known place continued screaming events, has gone smoothly. Screamed event is like this, me and eric at the sleeper suddenly heard the misty distance calls, is beginning to pay attention, but it sounds more and more big, Xiangehangyun. We went to the girls outside the sleeping rooms, which are not moving, and then the other end to continue coming. We used to look and found a girl threw herself to a man's arms, while the ground has been trampled to death by a mouse. Screaming is the huge energy spread from the mouth of this girl.
Jishou is a small town, there is no stop line 7 chartered (40rmb) directly toward the Miao Village Deben, less than an hour's drive, the car side of walking in the mountains, on the other side is the water bank, scenery is infinitely good, water buffaloes Tian side-line. We feel great smooth. However, where the driver said Deben is likely to have had nowhere to live, most recently two days to go Deben very many people. Can not help a bit worried. Fortunately, the evening time, after entering the Deben Miao Village, this concern was quickly dispelled by a fat woman in her football to find accommodation guests. Lead us to her new house, which turn a bit, and soon decided to stay.
Heard about 7:30 pm there will be a bonfire, we set the dinner in her home, first take a walk to the center of the Deben, where a large plain, turn around a bit. Miao's surrounded by mountains, in the dimming of the sky, the mountains, so standing proudly on the overlooking us. Square, a cis-row stall quick snack pendulum to attract our eyes: fried shrimp, fish, small crabs, mushrooms, parsley, there are peach shrimp. Peach Shrimp is a kind of water, insects, called the peach insects, is said to be able to go Taohua Yun eat, so I ate a bunch of bitter, hoping in my heart Luohe goddess appeared earlier. Square, surrounded by arts and crafts shops, hanging a gem of many arts and crafts things. No time for a closer look, to Azi, and an arch out of pig pens a photo of the pig, the return to farm vegetables have to eat quarters.
Dishes to do is very rough, but with a different kind of southern flavor, we do not have two days to eat hot food and meals, so set aside ladies and gentleman (Fortunately, I have never been what the gentleman), grab open去. Dishes do not imagine so hot, very fragrant smoked bacon, and vegetables are fresh.
The near side of coming out began to fire flickered, rumbling drums, hastily eaten meals, went straight to square that away. Has been quite a few people there. Unfortunately, it started playing, did not see the Miaonv, because the third generation of Deben beautiful woman drum is said to marrying men to Shanghai, this allows you to fascinating stories of it. Performing Miaonv are beautiful, very handsome, very handsome young man. We then come to the conclusion that miaojia no ugly, even the girls with us were all recognizes Miaonv beauty, where such a small stockade, so much beauty, the ratio is very high. Their dance is very natural, and we are accustomed to seeing the actor perform a different, very dynamic, very natural. Which visitors to take part in dance, I do not know on the inside is also running up jumping (in fact, a blind jump), cold-called a Miaonv touching my face a moment, I am elated while, but found his face to the black-cast carbon. Once again shows the time that I like to see the top of the oil, which was to invite the two men up, picked up four Miaonv man to perform without any explanation, "butt down geese-style", everyone laughed, people who have been performing laugh, that does not get mad. Then there Miaonv and tourists, singing in antiphonal style, priest performing magic (biting red-hot iron). To welcome us, there is no rain for two months God also began to spray water, seem to want to look at Deben wash to Shuiling mountain views to us.
Night sleep is very fragrant, the rain outside the window dodger coward before 6:00 AM no, Eric carry a tripod on four shooting. He and I talked a lot about the way photography knowledge, the value of my experience up a lot. Toyama thin smoke cage, behind the house a mountain cliff, as if by nature into ax jin Yun, look cut out. Said lunar October 15, the National Rock Climbing Competition will be in here. Such a dangerous mountain, hope that by then a brave man who climbs are well.
Or a light rain, Pangu originally planned to climb the peak, but the downstairs last night we met another team who help themselves (of which there is a fellow-mile) to our vivid description: mountain insurance, rain, wet, shoes are not professional, there girls. This will be very dangerous. Out of accidents are things that we are most afraid of men, so take a look at Eric days to decide or not to climb the (later to prove that their proposal is wrong, but our decision is correct).
We decided to go Aizhai chartered highway. Rock band is said Jiang then fled to Chongqing, and repair this road and died more than 10000. Road is very dangerous. Our driver was a 30-year-old six years of driving experience, driver, and later discovered that he is already 40 years old ----- Hey, this party is not polluted landscapes dependent ah!
Mist in the road, everything is wet, and the foot of the terraces began to look not see, visibility is very low. I once had the idea of not ask drivers to turn back, for fear of the mountain and everything is legible. Mountain climbing, the road is very dangerous indeed, in many places are big turn turning over 120 degrees of bend. If the speed fast, it is easy to the foot of the mountain terraces of organic fertilizer. To a highway, car stops, the driver call that we get off to see Yuquan Falls and observation deck. Field trail all the way to go to, eyes suddenly, a Grand Canyon, a jade belt from the mountains into the sky. A Shitai, is said to be the year MILLER and WONG point place. At this point the weather becoming more open, clouds dispersed, can not help but thank the heavens to the face. Emerald mountains, peaks tall and straight, a little stone paths to a viewing platform. Standing on the stage, Liang Lei wind, driving the empty Yu true, Jiyu emergence becoming an immortal.
Falls down from the Yulong, but found that the rain stopped, and everyone discussed, but also thrust backwards Deben, climb Pangu peak to the water. Where we met last night, the group of the faithful travel to see us again, very not understand. We are looking for tour guides, had intended to please everyone admired Zhang cicada silk, but she is not in the selection, the other Peugeot's Miaonv became our guide. Through 1976 to a large burnt to the ground to rebuild the Miao Village hinterland, began to climb, tour guides Shi Ling-fang, the mountain road sections and lines, we follow a line, wet mountain road, which is not difficult to walk. Guide to a place where stopping for a rest, give us a vertical song, sound brighter sweet, although we did not understand what that meant, but the good things that are common, people are comfortable. Walking around, I found that actually not a high mountain road in fact not dangerous, after the rain the air is very fresh, and we are very comfortable. Up on the hilltop, but also mountains and waited for opportunities, the endlessly rising Emerald, there are Miaonv laugh operculum flowery side, I do not know who it is even more beautiful or more beautiful scenery. (Due to Miaonv I do not like to see a good man, I had to give up the year with her and write a legendary love drum idea:). However, Sister Heart Dutch uphill road, but it is extremely difficult to overcome, and finally to their work.
This time we did not go to quicksand Falls, because they have heard the water is small, but according to the living leifeng fhly introduction, in fact, quicksand is not a waterfall look at the flood, but water, like quicksand, like diarrhea down, falling air. After a friend of mine to go, we might go and see.
Out of the Deben, then ran back to Jishou street terraces, Miao, buffalo, shallow, water tankers, guanyin cave much said, we all feel empty. Jishou chartered a half hours went to Phoenix, all the way to the Deben and the scenery is different is full of mountains and terraced hills, almost do not see a big flat. In Hunan, survival is not easy, not easy to transport and living environment. Came to Phoenix, the first feeling is a new mess of the town, and former go Jiangyin, Yixing feel almost. But people's first impression is not always right, Phoenix is the case.
At the station, fhly to pick us, thanks to him, we found shelter in place, Phoenix's external passenger carrying capacity is not strong, and many friends of the houses was only in the streets where the playing ground floor. The next night, I went through the side of the hotels Tuojiang to see inside the hall opposite the door put a sofa (not sofa bed), a delicate and charming girl wrapped in quilts Wang Waimian eyes stared, I did not have the heart to beat her down. We live is to educate hotel last remaining two rooms, in addition to not independent toilet and bathroom, other are very good, and very clean.
Phoenix, tell the truth 2 months ago I do not know the specific location, did not quite know, but now many have given intensive training in back. Phoenix, the most famous is probably the Shen Cong-wen, and then there are the famous painter Huang Yongyu, printing and dyeing master Liu artillery, Xiong early and so on, there is a Xiong Xiling, we may not care, I have to go the next day the night Tuojiang the way In his Zhaizi door stop for a while. Xiong Xiling be called a generation wizard. 15-year-old in the scholar, in lifts, 16-year-old, 19-year-old in the chin-shih, 21-year-old point Hanlin, 43 years old (in 1913) as Prime Minister of the Northern Government.
We take a break a moment, then began to take us fhly out to dinner, he was a native of Phoenix people. We went straight to Old Street Old Street Hotel, this hotel is probably the most long reputation of the Phoenix hotel, because it's boss is the author's hoofs, or because of his authentic dishes in particular? Should have a bar. Little shop to accommodate no less than the number of people, we look at the past, set the seat more before they go to 8:00. Generally, there are dishes of blood rake ducks, Suantang Yu, baby vegetables, fried bamboo shoots, bacon and so on. Blood and blood harrow rake duck (duck blood to do glutinous rice glutinous rice mixed blocks), and duck cooked together, where the duck is not artificial reminder Jiangnan long ducks, are natural duck, duck is very nice (no tear hair ago), meat Qi delicious incomparable, not fat. Hot and sour fish snakehead, and we are not the same as the snakehead, fish is too delicate, and soup is simply. . . I do not say, and tut. . . Vegetables are fresh, have a chilli, but the only thing that I think is more spicy fried bamboo shoots. We are hungry, eat a lot.
Chibaohezu, along the streets, to the Hongqiao Tuo on the first floor is a group of arts and crafts shops, on the second floor is a cafe. Cafe layout very cultural taste, Zhu Rongji and hang on the walls to come here this spring, leaving photographs and calligraphy. Wall surrounded by calligraphy, paintings, cloth and other things. Hall put the middle of a huge 2 MILLER and WONG chair, that chair is the biggest so far I have seen a chair. There Miaonv see tea, tea does not intoxicate. Ancient tea hall side, there is a Ming dynasty loom, that taught us how to perform Miaonv tea cloth. Your window, outside the night and lifeless, light bit of reflection in the Tuo, this is the Bay of. The time the moon in the day, fresh winds to blow leaves, water, sound of gently. I remember that two poems: Zheju lonely listening to cold rain, trance to sleep, spring season, autumn season; repose Happy reading warmth, hazy Banxing, human, half-bed, books, and a half bed.
And fhly chatted a lot, this boss is not ordinary, or Phoenix, where they had ordinary lives in our eyes is not an ordinary one person. He is a Tujia people, the University of Reading is the traditional Chinese medicine, but after graduation is not engaged in a medical, marketing, construction, commerce and so been engaged in, and now engaged in tours. Loyalty forthright personality, but the appearance is a Wenruo scholar looks like. He spoke, in particular, the Phoenix-speaking, then, I feel as if singing the same. Busy day, he goes to work, benefits are not bad. Internet, mahjong games are obsessed, but it also well-organized life. When he was elated and we say that his Diablo II has 1000 points, defense force, the old monster to see him have to hide, I really think this guy funny.
Morning we get up late, went to Phoenix to see the bridge Tuojiang. Phoenix is small, across the city about 10 minutes walk. The bridge back to Phoenix, Phoenix's residential participation times, are built on mountains. Down perspective, Tuo qingliu slowly, plants dancing in the water itself. Walked downstream along the Tuo, the old woman beat with the wooden club clothes, girls in the water-wan vegetables, cheerful children playing in the water, a wooden bridge and a stone bridge Didi De horizontal ridge in the Tuo, the bright blue sky, far Southern gates and Hongqiao in sight. What kind of a scene Yeah, what are a kind of smell. In Shanghai, the Yangtze River, you can not appreciate how, as a kind of style. Eric, ShallWe and Azi sat for a long time at the riverside, they should also enjoy the kind of mood bar. Our side of the children, they are a rich material life circumstances, the loss of sky blue and clear river, I feel sad for them because the get-rich material at the same time, the cost is too high. Can be readily touch nature, what kind of a blessing.
Climb the stairs, turned Street, came to the long attracted Shen Cong-wen's house.
Old house, a few dilapidated wooden room, old furniture, Ming dynasty furniture style. Is one such ancient and ordinary houses, has bred a generation of people Shen Yue Huan (from the text was originally called). Raiter-ping said: "His life was too special, he gave the world with too many surprises and has a lot of regret, he was half-good plain lonely, he left a beautiful but also to bring people sad. Mr. carefully read the article In my eyes, there is always a lingering trickle in western Hunan river in the mountains, day or night, a white-haired elderly Airan standing river, sparkling eyes, gazing towards the distant faint. "bypass inside the house, there is a lot of feeling, but what if unable to speak, it seems that casual would like to express, then say it is no longer that means. Imagine moonlight night, the night up to the garden that year, Mr., to check whether the small mountains Yue Fei's state of mind?
Gently sighed, out come.
Is not far from the Ambassador Hotel, there are several articles on the Internet recommend it, so we went there. Business is good, food's taste is also very good, apart from duck meat, there is incense jars bacteria.
After dinner, go to the South gate to come and go from the text cemetery.
Cemetery not far from the leisurely boat trip on the Tuo River, on both sides of a lot of Diaojiaolou, Phoenix features. 10.1 holidays, Yourenruzhi, but still less than we imagine a lot of people. Not too quiet destruction of the Phoenix. From the text of the tomb is not indulgent, like what sort of person that if a simple, subtle. There is no tombstone, only a boulder, positive, "as I thought, could understand me; as I thought, could understand people," negative "non-discount not from, but also chee also enable; l'etoile his writing Knows his heart." Standing for a while, I just Anjiao Someone shouted "ashamed" to continue upward. There is a cliff top, write what the word has been forgotten, but on it there is a small piece of bamboo, Gently rocking in the wind, the old Soviet Union, said: "Can we eat no meat, can not live without bamboo, no meat and thin people, without bamboo makes vulgar ... .... " From the text might have never wanted for themselves and others taken to different niche products arrogant attitude, but that is because of his personality, makes him a decent lay.
Down from the hills to, is said to specialized research literature Azi tombstone from the text before the burst into tears, but even closer look Azi his eyes, but do not see any signs.
All the way back to the boat, in the Hongqiao less than a multi-layer high above Diaojiaolou, Huang Yongyu's "wins Tsui House", which is very good looking. But local people have different opinions, that this floor too domineering, undermining the overall style. "Jade", which has two meanings, Tuojiang landscapes Tsui, and Shen Congwen border town where the good girl Tracy. Sunshine, the Tuo River water color printing and dyeing the sky, sparkling, riverside Diaojiaolou group, small wooden boat to come and go, Hongqiao river crossing, shady trees, peer smile, everything is brilliant.
Go back, bought some souvenirs, and cultural taste are very strong, I actually have fortunately purchased Liu cannon (United Nations named folk art masters) were previously in process plants for work, his factory closed down accounting in the yard when the cannons Liu All works were acquired. Went to the streets to the local shop the most famous two silver, one of the ancestral Liuyuan Min store inside, bought some silverware, the old silver handicrafts although good, but really too expensive, and some may and gold as expensive. Can only buy a new silver jewelry.
At night, or Street restaurant for dinner. After dinner, since the peak in the peer Pangu girls who left a crab leg (that is, leg pain, walking like a crab also) the after-effects, they directly go back to rest. I will go alone to the Tuojiang side-step.
Moonlight Tuojiang very quiet, the lights low, clear water to hear the sound. I sat in the riverside, very quiet breathing, listening to his heartbeat, listening to water flow, listening to the wind. Moonlight beautiful, reminded Yu Kuang-chung of that poem: "it off a more wide of the Dutch industry, the package a moonlight go back, go back and caught in the Tang Dynasty where ± a ± a, like the pressure off Acacia", as well as a now seems to hum the words are too full of pride and a point: "wine into the high intestines, seven points led to the moonlight; the remaining one-third of Xiao Cheng Jian Qi; embroidered mouth a spit on the half-Tang."
Recall that in busy Shanghai's life, a living seems to be too impetuous, superficial, and just to live and live to enjoy life the lack of a calm and peaceful.
A bit tired, go back Xiezhuo of.
10.5, light rain, chartered to黄丝桥古城Southern Great Wall.
Rain in the黄丝桥古城on to the front so unknowingly, not aloof, not flashy, on the contrary, it is the civilian-oriented, inside and outside the ancient city are the residential areas. Walking the city wall, to the distant smoke slowly, the old town at the foot just like they should. I smiled. Had a serious military camp in the Qing dynasty, and now it was lying quiet and gentle, guarding the city a few dozen families, and the surrounding natural seamless. The original history can also be useful to themselves. In the town head, commoner fish and ShallWe Azi discuss how the well to take advantage of a very big aloe for cosmetic things, the last of their kind put down the knife still.
Southern Great Wall, in fact, is really only a small section of the ancient Great Wall, the most majestic parts are subsequently built, and we climbed up the hillside rather than the main entrance to the Peak, in ancient times, the city is divided into seedling and Shumiao boundaries ( seedlings were not assimilated by Han Chinese, Miao, also). The surrounding hills are terraced mountain. City was originally a good-looking, but inserted a number of flags and a number of scenic hot-air balloon evil. Not acquired any dragon lying on the south ridge to describe the Great Wall, in the mountains, this is once again prove himself to the existence of a natural imprint. For the ancient Great Wall Guzhuan above, they are witness to centuries of wind and rain of Miao Han Dynasty, and the new repair wall bricks, in turn witnessed many years of Miao-Han cultures?
Luo Walled small bread or going. On the road is very dangerous. And the wonders of different Aizhai road, where there is more primitive than the road, mountain is more rugged, narrow. Have access to all Luo Village, I can not help but not a trip for their trip easy and marvel of the. Dora is the Tujia stockade. 5.1 The development of this year began. 5.1 times, fhly and sting a few other people to play a total of 5,6, the village chief who led the whole village came out to welcome firecrackers. Here is responsible for outreach to a guy called Yang Tong Line, he has a brother named Young electricity. The stockade where the person is said to be the descendants of Yang Rokuro. Out of the car, surrounded by simple villagers, almost feel that they have not received any contamination, a smile is very shy, but very sincere. Took us all the way to go to that locals called the fields of nine, and we say also a little shy. Most of the village house (except on a floor) is a yellow mud-brick wall, very rural, very soil the house. Multi-country cattle, sheep, and dogs. Some of the wall still attached to basking in tobacco leaves.
Tian 9 took us to the back of the stockade, is a Grand Canyon, Canyon under water, water's edge there is a rocky beach, water, greenery in the former, only to look not seen. Tian 9 scant very interested, we all seem to return to childhood, picking up rocks splashing float. Opposite is a three-story hole bandits, but they are Luo chai and fights took place across the stockade, it is now not seen it. After two months of rain water is not curved, we have along the water's edge, turn full circle back to the stockade. Had intended to taste rice farm Tujia Unfortunately, where there are no plans, many people (in fact not many 2,30 individuals), after cooking, they cook too slow, so we go back. Tujia and Miao stockade taste different, they are more like a remote rural areas, rather than the customs of ethnic minorities.
Fhly night at the bus stop called Fruit Fruit & Deli restaurant location across the sub, eat half a basin the size of bighead carp fish head, as well as acid, beans and other Phoenix specialties. Leaving Phoenix last meal. Unfortunately, Azi lying in a small hotel a fever, there is no eat.
10.6, morning, our sleeper Is that it, so fhly intend to go Jishou, to take us on the train. By Jishou, a very well-known history will occur, but we will treasure in their hearts do not speak out, "There was a girl, eye socket a red, in front of me, crying together, we have a broken heart" incident. fhly sent us a very generous attempts to get on the train, but also to take us to the sleeping car to sit down, get off only to go back to the Zhangjiajie. We also see the beautiful blue and her companions. We are all very grateful to fhly, helped us too much. We have the goodwill of the Phoenix, and many also came from him. If you see this fhly future articles, want to accept our gratitude to him.
The remaining 30 hours, we did not make up the sleeper, mostly standing, and China's monopoly of the iron board carried out an unremitting struggle against the boss has taken me into the enemy's retreat, the enemy advances, withdraw, the enemy tires, we attack The guerrilla strategy, with the revolutionary spirit of optimism to survive the 30 hours. It is worth mentioning that Eric back of his big bag, carry a huge horn, in the countless people have been stabbed after Jing Wen: "You This is something." Is still holding his arm after the running back and forth, showing the dauntless revolutionary spirit of the proletariat.
10.7, more than 5 pm, and finally returned to Shanghai, Eric will still adhere to what they are 4 to Suzhou.
That night, the Chinese team beat Oman 1-0 to march into the World Cup. I fall asleep in the second half.
Conclusion, Phoenix is worth, good scenery. We are quite happy. More valuable is that you get to know the peer's good friend, established a revolutionary friendship.
Articles written by some of anticlimactic, and many of the details can punctuate rendering, I have been lazy. Click to change again after the empty bar. With regard to specific charges for the future of the CFO ShallWe invited us to come and we talk about, or added to the rear of this article.
