7 / 20 10:00 AM train from Shanghai to Wing On
7 / 21 4:20 AM arrival time of Wing County still early, we will be free to move around the urban areas in the Wing. Wing is very small, take the money from the surface of the two urban areas to send you to the head apart, Wang Dan. We are a small store next to the railway station, point a local snack: fried Guo (4 million), and then by plane (2 million) to the South Gate Plaza, from the South Gate Plaza, for gongchuan Line (2 yuan ) to Yuen Tung (30 million). We have previously checked some information on the Internet, Taoyuan Cave Scenic Area is a national-level A4, "Little Wuyi," said that many Internet users have recommended. Attracted away, I feel just middling, landscape can be, there are mountains of water also could be considered beautiful, but traces of heavy labor, there is no aura. Only inside the "thin strip of sky" There were some meaning. Just that, hungry, and in 40 degrees Celsius temperatures climb mountains, and really extremely painful.
Te-shan to the next, there are 8-way bus (2 million) goes to the coach station (not far from the South Gate Plaza). Changting car to open soon, and we bargained with the conductor to 25 yuan / person. More than four hours after the road is bumpy, saying that Chang-ting up. At this time about 3,4 o'clock in the afternoon.
Changting in history is a "red town", but Chairman Mao's former residence, but also the Soviet base, north is the Ruijin. But Changting to my first impression is just a messy little town. There are many roads little ugly new buildings, put up white shiny tiles; Everywhere is the reach of many, many billboards do a bunch of extremely discordant squeeze. We are disappointed that everyone did not say hold back, looking for a place to live, and then gradually to discover the beauty of a small town in the past.
Place that we live not far from the bus station, called Jinxin hotel, we bargained to 60 RMB / standard room, air-conditioned TV shower, because the new open, very clean. We have found a circle around again, compare them to that house down and still feel good, price reasonable and in good condition, we went back there, stay there. Wash the bath, come out to feed, pressure road. Out the front of the boss says no more than a month Changting rain, but we just go out, we hit a heavy rain, but also Zhenshi Qiao.
Speaking of eating, Changting tofu (0.5 yuan / block) and the soup powder (2 yuan / copy) to compare well-known. Tofu is indeed delicious, ate quite a few. As for the soup powder and beef, flour, rice flour in fact, and add a little beef or pork skin what wire, but not how, is not interested in eating a few mouthfuls.
Finished things aimlessly along the road to go down. Bought some herbal medicine, said they could drink tea, the Qing fire detoxification. Tired called a tricycle to take us to stroll around. Sometimes stopped to pat photos. In the piles of pigeon-like building at the end, bypassing the ternary Court, was the only one still preserved large tracts of the old houses of the Street - South Street.
Because just the train was the worst, we intend to South Street the next day Zaiqu. The way back to buy a watermelon, chilled in the refrigerator at home boss. People are very good boss a warm, bubble tea, martial arts give us to drink. Later I discovered that we went, and everyone has a set of kung fu tea, do not ask customers come first malicious, first drink a cup of tea, the moisture from the tongue to the heart of the United States and the United States in the warm, and then speak.
Changting is a small town, small county. Although the streets are not crowded hustle and bustle of car horns, tricycle rang the bell is very weak. The pace of life unhappy, so we are living in more relaxing. From Shanghai, hurry up and stepped on his heels will be the city suddenly came here, although there is no scenery all, but I like a sigh of relief from the heart, "stealing" that they Bliss leisurely half-day feeling.
We took them to see just bought herbs, they say we bought the wrong, just a kind of herbal medicine is of no use. Several types of herbs boiled herbal tea to bring it together with specific cooking utensils can there be cool Quhuo role. Q we ultimately want to drink. Then at night, personally end of the two bowls of herbal tea to drink upstairs to us. Dark brown liquid. She said that is not afraid that we used to drink, put a little sugar. Not very sweet. Or drink herbal tea derived genuine. Is not bitter, drink go very comfortable.
7 / 22 day stay in the middle of the night Changding I started to fever, drowsily, loses sleep over. Wait until the morning, push wake Qing. She gave me medicines and breakfast down. Local customs Hezhou what to eat a little pickle. Boss told her that too early, and pharmacies have not opened the door. When I finished breakfast, not long after, she went to hospital with a bunch of medicine to me, let me be moved. She said she was last night and drank herbal tea to heat leads to, is not a good sign. After a while they came, rushed to us to drink herbal tea. Do not put sugar, taste purer form of the.
Ching also bought lunch downstairs. Local two kinds of snacks: bian meat (2 million) and taro dumplings (2 million). Very delicious.
Bian of meat looks like a small Shanghai wonton. Skin thin as onion skin and wrap the swelling filling, fresh taste and chew more like meatballs.
Chile Yao, sleep for a while, and burning back, and felt much better. Downstairs to eat dinner in the evening, and stroll South Street. Dinner eating beef balls, boil fish, also called a flat meat. The 2 yuan / copies.
Because I have a fever and can not air conditioning. Prices to be reduced to 50.
7 / 23 Changting to hukeng to get up very early on. Called a tricycle in the ternary House South Street have come full circle and return to bus station (6 yuan / 2). Some still see the year garden courtyard deep Fangcaoqiqi looks like. Reluctant to leave after half a day. Ride to the main destination of our trip - Yongding Earthen. There is no direct train, need to kanshi interchange. Changting 30 yuan to the Canton City, Canton City to Lake pit soil complex in 12 yuan.
On the road is four to five hours. Carriage extremely hot, it is drowsy, but sleep is not true. Street start to appear until a time when large and small, Tulou the car's passengers have left me and Big both men. There is also a claim to be residents of Earthen inside. We asked the driver how long the Tulou, he came and introduced himself. Said to be relatives asked us to fake his house, you can take us sneak Tulou, without Mai Menpiao (40 yuan / person), but give him the corresponding band travel expenses. And making good is 40 yuan / 2.
We are still some distance away from the Earthen place out of the car, a motorcycle came to take us. Told us to give them the first package, but also so that we claim to be riding a motorcycle young students. Takes us directly into the restaurant jump the queue stays awake Cottage (25 million).
Reading room downstairs for dinner. He holds the menu a look, startled. Really do not understand how can so expensive. Fried sweet potato leaves 5, beef balls 12 yuan, bamboo shoots ? ? 20. Reluctant to bargain to 20 yuan, he could no longer refuse to cut prices. A very bad mood.
After dinner, he said he could take us immediately to see earth-rise buildings in Nanjing, or South Stream, you can help us find a tour guide took us to visit. Asking price is also very rude. We did not care for him, his walk around. Hakka Museum and saw the "Earthen Prince" laudatory of the vibration into the floor. Different from here and scenic. Here is a living, mobile. Everywhere, all will be breathing. No one is seeking for us to create beauty, but everywhere were pleasantly surprised.
Walking along the river and saw a large banyan tree. Under the tree for the one Earth God. People here in this special letter. Po just been rendered by a Beggar. Wearing a lot of tattered cloth and plastic bags. I think she is very type, directed at her back to a shot of a photo. Only later did I heard that, she also read for high school or do at the time of the village is the highest educational level. Her sons all came to money. Eccentric old lady refused to benefit from them. Gradually everyone regardless of her. She was not rich in the village during the day begging, casual night to sleep where, where is.
We walk along the river, stone steps down. A very young girl is the river where clothes. To see us, very warm greeting. Q we ultimately want to eat stone flower of immortality. We say good, she wiped his hand for us to go ashore Sheng. Stone flowers are white, immortality is black, shot with the mountains of fruit pulp, and then Freezing into pieces, divided into a small piece of a small pieces and immersed in freezing water. Put honey inside. Qin Liang sweet taste.
Are eating, when a handsome youth riding a motorcycle Youyuanerjin Hakka. Do not know who we are, but responded with honest smile. Girls said it was her brother, Xing Lin, called LIN Ding-rong. They are Xing Lin village. She told Lin Su-ying. There are a brother, called LIN Ding-source.
I asked fixed-wing, you ride a motorcycle, but also passenger do? He said yes. I say that it can carry me? I want to go to other Tulou play. He said he could. I asked him how much. He embarrassed asking price had been laughter Han Han, saying how much we give is how much the money enough to fuel lines.
We feel that they were very good. Started to complain of waking dissatisfaction with Lu. Chatted for a while, plain English saying that you Zaiqu go shopping, so I am washing clothes and playing with you. The evening to my house for dinner. My family lived it. She reached for referring to us.
Do not intend to rush too much travel, the sky is also gradually going dark. We did not rush to look for other well-known Tulou, such as to petite known as l floor. We just sat on the bridge, watched quietly from the foot of the turbulent flow of the river rushed past. Hakka women are not far from the river where clothes are. Several Hakka curious Tantoutannao of our children, we have them smile, not too shy, and ran over to speak with us together to play.
At night, if we came to his home about. Su-Ying is cooking, and we feel so broke in some indiscretion, are at a loss when the fixed-wing passion let us inside. That, and so on for a meal of.
Dinner is very simple. They did not for our special Jia Cai, they are just some homemade meals, very simple but very uncomfortable. Did not necessarily everyone to sit down together to eat, who can eat at home, very easy-going. Su Britain has always been sorry to have told us that good food. We have always been a tell her does not matter. Indeed, food good or not had nothing to do. We have felt very warmed.
After dinner, Qing stay in their homes Hakka learn to play mahjong. I do not fight, sitting behind her chair watching them play in Garland.
Looked around. However, the old house clean, tables and chairs, cooking utensils, wall hung a great view of audio and video.
Also scheduled to play mahjong with the source of fixed-wing brothers, and some other neighbor's children. Fixed source in junior high school reading, exactly like his brother fixed-wing, handsome and polite, like brothers. The village children the same age, rough manners; the run around yelling; tilt legs look like Huo Tuotuo skilled mahjong like their parents. Be the source but it will sit straight and positive, burst out laughing black eyes sparking, pleasing.
A moment, Su-Ying went to told me that, and so I wash the bowl out with a stroll. I said yes. Stand next to her to see her washing the bowl, pick up a red plastic spoon, a water storage tank from the edge of a pool from a spoon scoop a drink of water Gulp it down. Look at me puzzled and looked at her, told me that this is down from the mountain spring guide, very sweet. Yao Leyi spoon to me, look at my drink down, with a smile asked me if it really taste good? Sweet is not sweet? I looked at her sweet smile, told her sincere, sweet, and sweet.
We walk out along the path. Chat with the head lying on the rocks. That stone still sported hot day, grass and moss has been baked out the fragrance juice, slowly distributed, filled in the night sky. Starry coverage. We have been talking a lot of words. She was a good student academic achievers. Reading is very hard. In the Reading Health School, wanted to test Mil Med. Her mother, like children, symbiotic eight. She was very sensible to take care of younger siblings, considerate brother.
Unconsciously almost ten o'clock, I sent for him to sleep Lu Qing back to awake. We intend to wake up the next day to move out Lo, Su-Ying's home to live. They told us to be able to go to an early knock on the door, moving past.
The sky was getting late and we do not have to identify road. Away from the vibration into the floor, not far from reached a chadao up. Two middle-aged to see the dark shadow. A male voice asked us miss when you came here. We are aware that up, middle of the night, two single girls, hesitant to talk to each other, find the right highway, to pay attention is also paid no attention to them, and trotted away.
Back to the room not long boss rush to catch up with floor to ask if we have not discussed this with just the two men what to say. Also asked where we planned to go tomorrow morning to take us to their motorcycles. We do not like them, I do not want them to do business. Say tomorrow, not going anywhere, we stayed in Earthen Lane; so far as those two people, we assume that they are easily approached by the girl's overseas visitors, the justifications for no reason. Boss say that two people are the leaders of the Tourism Bureau. Said to be afraid if they find that we are taking votes came in, and left us early tomorrow morning. Moreover, we take their motorcycles to go. We also took us to her man come in the negotiation of an inch more than two hours. Finally said yes to leave early tomorrow morning we will wake up Lo, then, if the consequences of fare evasion in the village caught conceited, all in the related to them. They have mouth Nanbian speak. Of our own minds a Wohuo.
Xing Lu poor condition. We do not Ganna quilt cover to the body. Wearing clothes wholeness wild "blind" the middle of the night 45 points Tianbuliangjiu escape may also wish to leave there. Heavily defected to carry our belongings at home away Su-Ying.
7 / 24 hukeng Tulou morning, a very good country air. We walked as he worried that too early, they have not get up, or have long forgotten such a thing children. The door and saw the door had been opened early, will Rong smiled, welcoming out, not eat it? I cooked pork porridge, hurry over to eat.
However, the domestic country's Zhu A, early in the morning has just been slaughtered, the ordinary day can be hard to eat. With the town butcher shop to buy pork taste quite different, and some sweet. Fixed-wing this kid really is wonderful, always ask us proud, delicious, right? This is but the first time I cook it.
After dinner, according to a pre-agreed, fixed-wing containing the Tulou I went to Nanjing. (With some minor trouble with the man not willing to come in our business is snatched by others, not allowed to set wing to carry us. But later, still yielded. It can be seen, for their own interests and freedom of movement, as well as to the convenience of the villagers, Or buy a ticket come in better, provincial and with so little money means nothing.)
Riding motorcycles, mountain road in the long gallop, beauty not live the way back, soft wind Fuguo my face and arms, my hair was blown chaos, and my thoughts have been blown, and my hand tightly Ring Hakka live in the waist, the heart began to diffuse fly.
I do not know when the air began to Piaoqi thin strands of rain drift. Gone with the Wind very intermittent, and wetting of the serpentine curves of the mountain. I have no umbrella, the head of this reduction on the front of the right shoulder and back as rain.
Kai takes a flying car-like. I am astonished, he not only failed to slow down, but tight stepped on the accelerator. I closed my eyes feeling the excitement that seemed necessary to release the soul of the speed of the body. Hill and dale was imbued with our laughter and screams. Is exactly the case, and soon I am going to taste what is the cautionary.
High-head to the scenery of the ancient bamboo makes me particularly surprising and layers of terraced fields, cages in the misty veil of emerald bamboo forest, contend the water buffaloes grazing, there was wanton Bentu, as if filled with spiritual streams; mountain is also the especially the hard-line. Particularly large number of downhill and cornering, and some even 180-degree turn; the road paved with crushed stone and gravel. Just rained, an inattentive will skid. Finally, in a corner, the motorcycle lost control, went over to the side of the road and field walls. My arm and a leg had been placed on his body, the pain. Finally stood up, the blood immediately penetrated his pants, in the rapidly spreads around the knee. The little finger is also bruised his left hand up, elbow at the blood dripping down everywhere. The most terrible is that a stand up, I immediately began to commit low blood sugar. Straight cold sweats, retching, tachycardia, tinnitus, I knew I was eating breakfast less, and must immediately add that glucose, otherwise, it may at any time halo in the past. But who does not take sugar, I can only go all out to carry the ice water to drink in order to try to keep conscious.
Rest a while before recovering steadily. To a nearby clinic to do a small simple disinfection and dressing, drank a bottle of glucose, I have decided to continue up! Take a look at his scarred hands and legs, surprised that she actually arrived in Nanjing river snail is more eager to pit to see the "Five Golden Flowers" of hosting the Games. Although the two people who crashed was tragic, can not live down the mountain, even snail can not be rushed to the pits, my mind is not at the end at all. Simmering like breath, like competing with whom. The more difficult, the more I was to do so.
I am very difficult to bursts of pain in the legs, moved on the train. Move on the road, will be very, very obedient wing. Automatically speed down by half. Turn with the downhill areas are also cautious. I began to think, but fortunately no broken bones, do not have to fuss about him. If he can learn from it is also good.
Terrain gradually increased. Mountains where the wind is cool damp. Didi De Crimping mountain clouds seem to reach out to touch.
Three or four hours later, we finally reach the snail pit. From the side of the mountain and see the rows of "Five Golden Flowers." The so-called five golden flowers, some people call them "four dishes and one soup," it is by an ellipse, three in the middle of a circle and square Tulou composition. Yellow walls black tiles, structured, clever idea.
The local people eat, ready to go back after a slight break. The more rain the next larger playing the umbrella is still of no avail. We found all of the wounds were cold salty saturated with rainwater, and in great pain, the blood again began to spread out infiltration. He also is not a light injury, but his own Chuangxia the disaster, but also embarrassed to complain.
Loop and to the situation is different, so is another round of scenery. But also greatly shortened the journey. I originally planned in the next village, the tower also has been entered, I inadvertently went. Some Canbai, but without losing style.
Wait until they finally had to go home to Britain and crashed out of the Su-ching was shocked. A bath on the medicine, I limp to join them in the river washing clothes. Su-ying, the first repeated brushes with the scrubbing brush, and then knock the stick, and then into the river rinsing. Jeans knee part of the grind a lot of holes. Three girls while laughing while washing clothes. After a while, will have been enlivened by the source. Throwing rocks into the river to our attention. I clearly remember Napian green water is so cool. My mind is a rare peace and purity. The material life of the city has never met me, but this simple pleasure made me very satisfied, and feel happy.
After dinner, we sit down and bridge the fields, the stars. Night the river is still a public outcry, I saw my life had never seen the stars, so large, so close, the entire film thick speckled night sky. Slipped quietly from time to time a small meteor. Big Dipper its shaped like a spoon, white clarity.
I discussed with the Qing, it is time to go. Here very good, so too should be the most tempted stops. If we do this unless Tulou, it will perfect. We really should not let their own health until the run-tired.
7 / 25 Lake Su-Ying Hang to Quanzhou, despite a repeatedly asked to stay, we are still early journey home. Fixed-wing riding a motorcycle to send us out to far, far away. I knew he was secretly in the rearview mirror inside look at me, but I have the courage with him in the eye.
Car came. Unless we hurried wave. Silently picking up. Perhaps one day I will come back here, because I love it here; more likely I will never come back, because I too love it here, could not bear to destroy it and then look back on my mind beautiful. This wave is virtually a farewell.
Lake Hang to Quanzhou about ten hours. (Lake Hang to Yongding 17 Yuan. Yongding to Quanzhou 50) road is not good, we are tired of being Britain's thrown, and no one did not want to talk too much. And obviously are in a more left Tulou, while the heart, there are indeed a kind of unexpected to the heartache the slightest opening to diffuse.
Is so simple life, drinking a soak into the depths of the spring, in the river washing clothes in the afternoon to walk around the mountains, or doing nothing, just sitting on the bridge watching the water at the foot of the rapid flow of Hakka children to swim in it playing, watching for a long time, until the sun was setting. And then wait for starry rising.
Feel happy.
I began to believe in past lives. How else to explain my thoughts at the moment like nostalgia. In those belts out a beautiful Tulou between my previous life, pick up all the lost things, the soul is no longer with the end result as at midnight on the night of weeping will not Dream. I have peace of mind to do myself. I have a strong perception that they are safe. Among them, I am not a cursory visitor, nor are those who deliberately greet visitors, more like brothers and sisters, like a home.
Around 17:00, arriving Quanzhou. Qing's cousin took us his house. Were very good, the next day also invited a lady to accompany us out to play tour guide.
7/26-7/28 Quanzhou went to the famous Kaiyuan Temple in Quanzhou (3 million), having listened to the girl's guide to explain, big sense of Kaiyuan Temple is a great thing to see. Came out to climb the banyan photographed. I light a foot. Like a little Monkey.
Chongwu the afternoon. We have never seen the sea, these two poor children, one saw the sea, they could not help screaming and rushed to the past. Tread barefoot on the beach in the soft and delicate. Arm in arm, large waves into the guts inside.
Play tired, dragging reluctant to foot the landing unclear. They knocked on the elbow a few small wounds. Pants are also torn a big mouth. Bare arms and neck were red sun of the Sheng Teng, I know to have some days they will become a healthy wheat color. Hungry, and attend to so many, we devoured a meal of eating seafood.
Ching-Ching's cousin with the husband, when empty, taking the time to accompany us to the Gold Coast. Put on swimwear, in the shallow water Wanli bubble an entire afternoon, the results accidentally hit the rocks again lifting the toenails. I also try to go where larger standing waves. Even if the hand tightly clutching the rock, can still feel a huge suction of sea water, as if one let go, I would be sucked into the ocean depths ... ...
From the Tulou start every day I was on my friend send an announcement today, how much has suffered another injury. Later, he had said, you still come home early. So you go faster change was crippled.
Where is willing to listen to. We should know that vertical tiger return to the mountain, is not so easy to put a tiger cage and then Zhuohui呀.
There is one thing, I would also like to mention. That is, the day after we arrived in the evening, Quanzhou to meet a long-hoped-storm. So we tell ourselves that the "rain god" and went wherever Heavy sweet rain.
7 / 29 to Xiamen, Quanzhou, Xiamen, about one and a half hour (15 million).
In fact, Xiamen, without our imagined good. We expected the highest result was ... ... the shore Gulangyu bursts of odor; island uninspiring; beach gravel coarse than elsewhere, would be painful to walk barefoot; island architectural style similar to the other side of the Bund in Shanghai, but it is less than magnificent Bund and tidy.
Station next to the Wal-Mart on the fifth floor has a food court. Cheap. Many varieties, eat for several days, but come.
Nanputuo Temple vegetables is difficult to eat, the door has a lotus pond, which raise fish size of amazing. Continue to lose a little cracker crumbs will be attracted to groups of fish disturbances, a lot of Xuepentaikou competing open, exposing them to dense white teeth.
Xiamen University in Nanputuo next door, very pretty. We do not have time to look hard enough, really pity. However, Xiamen University do not seem to open, in order to infiltrate the school, had some quarrel with the guard costly.
7 / 30 back to Shanghai 4:51 pm, multiplied by the K176 (170 million). Incidentally, we are on the train for political campaigns, and self-criticism in, the windows began to glide on the water sidelong tracks, it should be ... ... the rain, right?
7 / 31 4:22 PM return to Shanghai.
After returning to Shanghai the next day afternoon, is being with friends recounting my exciting journey, as well as the argument, I may be the fact that the rain gods descend to earth when it began to rain ... ... (Khan ~)
Tips:
1. Buy tickets at the bus stop. May wish to directly ask the driver to solicit people to buy or sell. This can be cheaper than the ticket window to buy some.
2. Earthen must stay in the homes of local residents. Or else senseless. The best is to follow the crowd into the village, and if you go to the local people also Niezhaobizi Qiaozhe fingers too dirty here and there, you just do not come out of the calculations.
3. Multi-band more Band-Aid. We are in this band, it helped a great deal to him.
4. Xiamen has a direct entrance to go to Earthen car. Otherwise you can transfer in Yongding.
5. We must buy a ticket to the pit lake, do not go vote. Otherwise, these people will have a monopoly of all your accommodation, as well as in the Earthen access, it is an overbearing.
