19 April, 2003
Faintly heard from a distance, the car horn sound, opened his eyes, the clock stop at 3 o'clock sharp, hurry wake-ying, we simply ate a little breakfast, finishing End luggage came to check out the lobby. We wake up to the hotel with security and attendants Miss, they are not impatient and complaints quickly to help us after finishing the check-out procedures. We have successfully boarded the train K163 times, because it is non-seat tickets, we intend to in the dining car on the Zuo Yihui, Li Ren small dining car, we found a space to sit down and see if it was to sit down cook ran to come asked about the extra dishes we would like to point put him away, but he said not to burn dissatisfied 50, can not sit in the dining car, or to fill berth. What sort ordering also provides a minimum charge of! ? China's railway service is not flattered, so angrily ran back inside, fortunately, we found a space, but is not connected to the seats, I can only be separated Ying Fortunately, not long before 3 hours.
5:00 and more time watching other people on the train all the fall of the disorder and I slept in it because of the spirit of Silicon particularly good, we also found adjacent seats, began to yesterday, bought a one loquat peel ate, compared with yesterday's slightly sour taste.
After a Nanping station, the train started to travel the edge of the Minjiang River and I sat in the train on the right wing, just wide of the Minjiang River can glance, morning mist, the vastness of river surface, boatmen have been weaving a fishing net and began hard day's labors, a poetic pastoral scenery.
Shortly after 7:00, the train on time docked at the Gutian station, said the station, but did not like the station buildings, get off the edge of the rail separated from a row of devastation is a road, and many stops on the road with a motorcycle-powered tricycle. To see if we Tizhe Da shopping spree, there is the driver stepped forward to ask us where we got on that bus is going to Gutian, he Erhuameishui, let us get on the train, each 1 yuan. The driver took us straight to a store front, then, was a car parked in a long-distance, but how to see how unlike the bus ah! Taken in the beginning thought, and only one inquire to know, here is the yellow Gutian County franca, the car is from Huangtian bound for Furuta's. We are looking for two seats on the bus to sit down, fares 6.5 yuan / person.
The car out soon hit the front on the road, due to high temperature, the sun, stirring up a lot of Chen Sha, Ying quickly with windows closed, saying it was to avoid excessive inhalation of toxic gases, ha ha. Car Open mountain road, out of the window is the cliffs, mysterious feeling a little dizzy a little bit excited, and only personal experience can appreciate. Reservoir and the road will pass through Longting Gutian reservoir, looking from the mountain, the feeling particularly well. In such a steep mountain road, the driver can actually open until 50,60 yards, technology is absolutely first-class, that is, this speed was opened more than 1 hours before the Furuta county.
Furuta bus station is probably the most prosperous county Furuta lots of it, the station front wheel of a large flow of people, such as weaving with one of prosperity. Unfortunately, we do not have time to savor, and bought long-distance bound Pingnan tickets, 16 yuan per person, because we already have a better goal - Yuanyang Xi.
We worked non-stop again opened on the mountain, which under the wing and I have been accustomed to in the car fast on mountain roads, but also has not made the previous excitement I just want to hurry to the Pingnan of Yuanyang Xi. Along the way we found an interesting phenomenon, in the mountains of rock on a wide variety of large and small, grave, it is interesting here is not put on tombstones Buddha, but Taoist Eight Diagrams, and universe map, and the style is extremely similar, and in passing a few small towns, we also found that Gejia room door on the Taoist magic mirror hanging on behalf of the evil spirits like objects can be seen mostly in eastern Fujian Province Taoist faith.
About 11 points, we went to the Pingnan bus stop, where many dilapidated bus station than Furuta, front of the station has no vehicles, only at the station next to several hotels in addition to almost no tall buildings, and looks do not like a county, at most, a village looks like. We bought from the ticket Pingnan bound pairs of Town, 5 yuan / person, but we just missed a car, to wait half an hour, no recourse but to pull and so on. We are holding a ticket boarded, the driver was a young man in his early 20 due to hot weather, he was lying on the seat resting on it, but also ignored its us. But soon enough, I chatted up the initiative and that he was mainly inquired about the other side of Sungai, in fact, is still full of talkative young man, and we are all asked questions that he answered it. We understand that in fact does not necessarily need to take from the Pingnan Sungai car, as long as the ride to the governance and direction of Zhouning or car, in the double-Town I got off the town also went a little way.
Waiting for a long time was also not seen on the grid, quickly urged him to drive, but the people here seem very relaxed, and does not hurry, but also with a smile told us that a few will be really angry and we are straight grit one's teeth, but they can not do anything. Because for so many years living in Shanghai, his mind always thought that time is money, the concept of time stronger, but do not have time here has completely the concept of time does not seem important, just a few simple figures.
After another 10 minutes to finally start, and now the car is only me and Ying two people, we feel like a bag full of joy in a limousine-like. Are pleased that yet, and an old man waving a roadside stop, we saw him with the conductor said a few hard to understand the Fujian dialect, on both the driver and the conductor get off. We do not know what had happened, I thought they were not to fight Jiala, so the probe to the car looked. Is strange that yet, and I saw the driver and the conductor each holding a box of fruit, I asked the driver how matter, the answer is to move something to help that old man immediately like. Faint! This can quickly this? This toss about 10 minutes, and so the old man also boarded, the driver in place, it can always hit the road under the bar, saw the car out of the head and fled in the direction vertical bus station. This is how the thing! How they go back where you open! ? The driver explained that there is a little something to move, one would like. Completely collapsed! How would there be such a thing! At this time a large glass has been moved to the car, suddenly becomes narrow the inside.
Finally hit the road, on the road again after another up a lot of passengers, there are men and women, old and young. As the piece of glass reasons, appeared in the cramped compartment, but the strange thing is each of the passengers on the train did not hold complained. Where customs are quite honest, when there are elderly people and children on the bus when the car people will take the initiative to take the number one, but also take the initiative to your seat. What impressed me most is the way to hobble around in a pair of father and son passing motorcycle, the child was 2 years old like his father waved parking, with the conductor said something, they quickly got on to send their children to the conductor, since the children sail their motor drove off the car's passengers were offered to take over the child. Was originally thought that the relationship between father and relatives do the conductor asked him to look after. Later, we learned something from it, in fact, my father felt that riding a motorcycle is too dangerous for kids, the car was required to raise a child one way, his first and so open to the front. The car people are willing to take care of children, the conductor that his father has failed to collect any fees. These scenes of our great touch, Pingnan here remoteness, transport facilities, while creating the simple folk customs here, such human love and in large cities has been lost for a long time, today we have another where to find the back Montagnards love and really touched us more than hope that the city can have such love and ah!
On the road took about half an hour, when more than 12 points a smooth to a double-Town. The driver let us off at a hotel before, allegedly the only hotel in town as a whole. We have come to front of the hotel, the boss was not enthusiastic, just ask the one whether you want to stay, he gave us onto the floor. This is a family hotel, 10 yuan per person / night, room no TV, no separate toilet, and only have a public bath downstairs. I went to feel that it can fully experience the local living and morals, for me this is Zhuna backpackers are the same, but the room felt dirty Ying, bathing and convenient, do not want to live, really fail to beat her, only do not live.
Get out the door, we walked side along the slopes to the town while discussing the next trip. Come to a grocery store, we went to the boss inquired Yuanyang Xi road, he was warm and had told us about that, Yuanyang Xi can be divided into several scenic spots, visitors are usually advised to go to foreign resorts and white water ocean area, Yi-yang is the The essence of the whole Yuanyang Xi, Yi-yang, but to walk the road is not very good, and the road farther away, and now more feasible approach is to first go to white water ocean, the next morning to obtain other appropriate foreign cars. The boss also took the initiative to help us in touch with a motorcycle, said they could take us two people to baishuiyang. Sure enough, a short while, a young man riding a motorcycle came before us, we will soon be closing price of 20 yuan, then we hit the road.
We have to governance, Zhouning out of the road shortly afterwards to a track, trail leading down the valley has always been. Along the way picturesque, fine spring, we have also talked freely and the young guy, but the ear whirr of the wind so that we become abnormal communication difficulties. Generally aware of a few years ago in Zhenjiang young man had been a soldier, now demobilized at home doing the shuttle back on the tourist business, but Yuanyang Xi where transportation is inconvenient and not many tourists, so business is not doing very well.
About 20 minutes, we went to the white water ocean scenic. We have before us a reception center, the edge is a row of bungalows, we bid farewell with the guys go straight after the reception center. This time is 3:00, and few visitors, in addition to us, only a few locals. Warm reception center staff came forward inquiry, after learning that we want to spend the night in this post is to help us clean up the room quickly.
"That's Shanghai Ning-fat?" One familiar with Shanghai, then let us simply could not believe my ears, ears these days is full of difficult to understand the Fujian dialect, but now suddenly heard the Shanghai dialect, let us feel warm . Looking back, a middle-aged women are smiling and the look at us, remote hometown event of a sudden make sense of distance between us does not pay there, we immediately share them with familiar dialect. Through conversations, we understand that she is engaged in an investment and development in the Yuan Yangxi sent to Hong Kong companies here, Chief Financial Officer, we have also learned that the Hong Kong company will invest heavily in pairs of Yuanyang Xi developed to attract tourists. But it is precisely for this reason that later Yuanyang Xi may be very difficult to maintain the current simplicity of the habits and stunning natural scenery of the. Really relevant laws should be promulgated as soon as possible to limit over-exploitation, protect the natural landscape, avoid repeating the mistakes of many attractions.
Seeing that the sky was getting late, we decided to immediately enter the area, tickets 10 yuan / person. (In this strongly recommend that you spend Mix in the reception center for 4 yuan buy on a pair of socks, absolutely Yongde Zhao!) And I hand in hand into the temporal area, a clear bottoming out of the creek in front of the tiring day, plus another out of a sweat, to see such a scenario, we can no longer bear it, water! So, put on socks, and we almost jumped into the river in an instant, a stream of cooling from the soles of the feet on the Bay, whole body felt extremely cool, than eating cold still comfortable. We are launching a place called diffuse Road clean water, water purity, flow slowly, Tang Shui playing in the stream. Man Road, along with water has to go look inside, pretty soon it will come to an open water, where is the white water of the ocean. Baishuiyang sen, also known as rake Creek, is the rare shallow Square, an area of 40,000 square meters above the riverbed water distribution uniformity, there are nearly 100 meters wide, up to more than 60 meters of natural surfing water slide, the annual August 18 Local residents have held the custom of water sports, various sports skillfully combined with the stream attracted a large number of local residents. To continue on to the depths of Monkey scenic holes, they must cross the white water ocean, the next was water, standing on the river, distant setting sun is gradually falling, according to get on the sparkling white water ocean, the feeling is really impossible to use language to express, only immersive experience which can explain the meaning. Through the white water and the Ying Yang later, I sat on the beach watching the sunset hid Whitewater Hill, the kind of cozy in the cities can not be felt. Then move forward on the Monkey holes should be, but because there is a way more dangerous, but the sky was late, so we decided to leave it back to the reception center.
Back to the reception center we are hungry, and quickly recruited attendant la carte, breath points, several extra dishes: mandarin duck noodles, Wild Kou, hot and sour tender Sun Jian, sow thistle small row of soup, which is more characteristic of local and game dishes, a total of only 47 yuan. While these are basically vegetarian, but are taken directly from the hills the ground to burn, and so it is absolutely fresh and delicious, the only meat dish of bitter herbs in a small row of a small row of soup is also used to feed a reception of that Article large dog. J
After dinner, in the reception center of the bathroom after bath cottage we intend to return to rest. Cottage on the left side of the reception center, a log cabin has three rooms, each room has its own special three-bed, plus two bathrooms, said that before here, when local students are living in camps, conditions can be called general, the corner there are signs of weaving spider.
This night, the entire residential area only to me and ying two people (waiters are living in the reception centers inside), I, and temporal order in the room with luggage, Ying with a smile would come up with a knife, said to be the time to have it to sleep pillow placed under the self-defense. Suddenly, through the window, a lightning across the sky, Ying scared what flew at my arms. It seems the mountains going to rain, and I quickly pulled in front of wing to the cottage to see night rain. I saw a Road lightning pierced the night sky, and sketched out the contours of the mountains, thunder and gradually from as far away as close a short while, intermittent rain falling, falling on the eaves, which fell on the ground, falling to our hearts I am holding Ying hand, this feeling only have one lifetime is enough!
Back to the room to sleep in makeshift beds, the dim lighting, and I cling to each other between Ying ear tick the rain with us to sleep.
