Whenever habitat in the Wei Liang night, shut our eyes, the brain is that picture, endless night spent days walking in, I sat alone tuck stone steps, looked up, but look, mist the eyes, see and not see have been unimportant, because I know there is the other side of distant mountains, the foot of a flood, water's edge with me, and I behind the body is a dream that re-lights of the town, border town.
Bordertown is called Cave of tea, because Sichuan (I went so far as Chongqing, therefore a moment's inattention to "play" a half-hour later on the details to be decomposed), Guizhou and adjacent to, so named. Shen Cong-wen's novels written in clear and may be I do not know why people love the border town called Phoenix. Compared to the former, Phoenix Esu simply can not stand me.
Since the Old Town of Lijiang had five days to be slightly too tired to leave later, I board the door of this small town will have a resistance to the stone path, while glossing over a new infighting richly ornamented in the south, Huizhou has also been accustomed to seeing is not strange, coupled with the downstream solar noise of people every night of frivolity and the Rainbow overseas Shengge the swagger to be kept in a quiet side Tuo tea's heart. I decided to leave.
Phoenix attractions around the Internet been seen almost all been to face (in addition to the Wangcun more Esu, I do not go and lose to), just let thoughts into a corner fall in. "tea Caves" so smoke came. Because I can not escape convention of the reality of the amount of interdependence, which originally only to the western Hunan pinch pinch the end of the first 5 days of the program, so far away from the Phoenix Cave Gonglue tea with only a cursory had only vaguely remember that transportation is inconvenient and there is Tracy statues, the real border town, etc..
However, no matter how frustrating things in life that are a mess of. So I With fragmented memory, to even the "tea Caves" heard of the word passenger Zhuang boss farewell: what I have to stay here, catch up today may not come back, maybe come back tomorrow. Hides all the money on the side, toss went empty-handed manner.
Jishou car to start with Phoenix, and then to comply with the staff pointing Jishou bus station, to ride crossing the street car, (then I doubt that this is perhaps just arrived two staff intern, because back in the car when it is known station where there is direct access to the fast Huayuan Pakistan - Huayuan is a transit point to the Cave of tea - but then I have seen countless mountain in the Green Paper that the fast bus from my side and galloped off, the car is very new, it is estimated Huayuan is for the development of tourist resources of the newly opened), said to be "so quickly."
2 hours passed, and the CMB light trucks, lorries, studded with strange names bound for the brand, there is no one to Huayuan, with people waiting for a train for another wave of the wave, my legs began to commit acid, Lu edge hardware store for folks to my curiosity no longer spreading.
Just as I was to wait until dark and went to Jishou University of fantasy night time, it came, leisurely sway, rickety. That is a bound Baojing of the CMB, via Huayuan, the car would have come out from the bus station should not have to go this route, the driver can be greedy for more than Mohr-McClune, literally around the circle.
I have his back to the driver take concrete steps to get on the conductor to sell the last one seat - 1 / 5 the hood, and to greet the guests look at the eyes full of cars, and occasionally can also peek through the gaps in the crowd to stand back from behind the scenery of seedlings forming Walled.
Car drives off a familiar spectacle Aizhai road, behind the village elder brother (heard someone behind him say government has offered 2,000 yuan to recruit Isao turned a cliff and only them to produce a fixed rope team leader who dared to take a table of the press, can not help but regret and 2,000 yuan a life cheap) on the road. On the road there are more than two hours walking in the mountains, a narrow mountain road, cramped in the cliff, Kuxiu the branches, revealing unparalleled gloomy. Only occasionally a few dozen households in the village houses to give I did not get on the black car comfort.
When traveling in the mountains is not aware of their high-tread, open the next ridge, the suddenly see the light at the Miman transparent rich blue and green away the time, can only experience that is called "a way out" in Qiexi . If the road's share of income, therefore can escape the fear of the unknown evil, then Qiexi turned into ecstasy is not an exaggeration. And I really want to mad Britain it? Because of Huayuan is only a beginning.
Huayuan calm afternoon between heaven and earth. It was a deep at the bottom of the mountain. The ill-distant hills around it, mountains and town center, tucked in a large non-marginal, gentle slope, to this town with enough gateway to space. Developed near Metro disclosed sure whether the era of street-side buildings pale little more than three layers, the rise of the sky, you can see a beautiful arc, so I have a mad rush along the road to the mountains and wild look.
Huayuan memory like a secondary school was kind enough to have a certain celebrity implicated, but did pursue the vulgar, though it casually walk around, I really tried Xing, anti-tasteless.
Happened that was out of the station they were met with a truck to the Cave of tea, sit with excitement attached favorite driver's seat. Fat driver is giving a sense of relief. Along the way to listen to her release 80 years similar to the high loess slope of pop music, and the car window the green followed quite co-ordination, but because of given birth to a face of a persistent severe tremors from inside the body.
Fat aunt's driving skills and her big voice as forceful. Car was very fierce, seat next to the cassette often fall out of the lid. I picked up for delivery back her, she look steadily forward to take over, of course, to drive, I suddenly be very reassuring to me taken on that strange unknown rugged mountain roads (later found the information, that is the 319 National Road).
More than half an hour later, a little dirt road under the car a bit flat, but the dust and mud are big up, like into a small village just household responsibility system. She slipped the new one but the empty four-layer near the former public housing to stop with some of the passengers and the other a Pakistani driver were handed over and money back to the car began to see a clear conscience, I still sit tight in the Taishan, she finally could not help but look back with accent, speaking in Mandarin to ask me, "Where do you go?" "tea Cave." "Here is a tea Cave. You do not know where to even own ah?"
I only know that I impulse was removed seven hours had come to tea, Tong Mountain to find a girl instead of a yellow-dog waits to be done to see the township and village enterprises. I also know that time, the eyes must be very innocent, I look forward to her conscience to scratched his back of the head can be timid at the same time told me embarrassed to send the wrong place, just as no one got a problem when you do a race papers as teachers look forward to the invigilator. But no, she is so calm, like food deprivation is illegal is so calm, and later hand, some of whom I have seen them know what to do.
She knew my grievances, two vertical than I have angry eyebrows, "What is the fun of tea Cave呀? Last time also, two guests that want to come here to see what the ancient city, the result is not what is has to offer. Otherwise the case, I pull you walk around in town, and then sit back to my car. you look at it, never really had much fun. "Oh! Cute fat aunt.
She led me slowly opening look inside both sides of the white building or not that popular until the "civilized Restaurant" This had been seen on the little face Gonglue the name jumped into the eye, I did find a backer like a firm like that to her See: This evening I will stay here any more. As lying in the arms of his comrades with the last one point struggling to produce the final strength of the party members a membership dues be as death calmly.
Fat auntie at a crossroads me down, listen to, she said, that the place is like asking what "Red Rock." Because of the language less catharsis, I did not raise another, only wishful thinking to the uphill intersection not far from the red stone as an unexpected source of place names trouble.
Mobile feeding into no electricity, and I suddenly live in a "I wonder whether the Han Wei-Jin" space. I am moving in the direction of the sound was gradually saw the familiar wooden doors, Miao groups and has been changed into bazaars, old-fashioned pier, and then, that is, tea threatened River (shui, Shirakawa). Chen Lao pen to which the "stream" in my eyes, as if it is a river.
River is very wide, San Wushi meters, is almost flat embankment, water color transparent, Ling Po micro-Yang sigh East passed away, a non-Zhang Yang, from your feet open to the perfunctory, as if the sky hung a piece of silver satin, opposite the mountain , blocking the sunny sunset. The shore have been broadened into a width of 10 meters walking Binhe similar, the spacing on the kinds of trees, but Mini is much less than 100 meters long with no fences. It should have been "long" in the water Diaojiaolou with the river separating the feet were hanging down the middle amputated, vacated the second half of the original house was filled with cement, stones can also open the door in mid-air, it is used in and out of housing is active escalator.
Road West, first there are two apparently had been used as a rope hung the Shizhuang. And then in the past but there are still boats, ferry. And the book written as a wire Qianzhu sides, but boatmen are no longer ship with the ring rope cited, but to switch to chisel a dent in the short stick. Boatmen there are two turns routines. Crossing the surface is relatively narrow, water color has a deep, almost green. Ferry has never and others, on the finished and left. One-way, but 1 minute of time, every time though not many guests can be the total flock.
Hull has been dug very deep, on the canopy has been swallowed up like a man walked into the same. Is that it is sitting sideways on both sides of each of the two sticks, one sitting, one by, economical and reasonable. Boat fare 0.50 Yuan / one-way. People are very conscious of the time in board pay boatmen, in case you ran it until after the jump, the observant eye out boatman will not forget when you disembark block your way, so I have been blocked off a back to Hei hei.
Across the river is another town and did not know the name, because to see the shore wall painting of "Hong An hostels" signs in the hypothetical that the place is called "Hong An." Shore side of the sky is the high slope, dozens of stairs, its density and tight small gains and a more than 18. The middle one looks like the lighthouse stairs white building first emerged, in disrepair for years, already obsolete.
Looking back standing on the steps, then along a row of Binhe Diaojiaolou, but also faintly visible, "Border Town" illustrations that look like meandering through the old. Ah, this is a border town I want!
"Hong An" Ferry Cave goes for the construction and tea is also a character that's fine wood floor, down to the gradient at its base, is lined up in the fruit and vegetable stalls, and three trucks parked on the roadside. Then in the past, that is, close the door of the shop, the apathy, they quickly made an excuse for the sky getting late, hastily climbing back.
Re not think, that out "of the apathy," is my maiden visit to Chongqing in the first impression. If it is not to come back more than three months after an accidental access to the Internet queries, I still do not know that they originally went so far as this went to Sichuan. "Hong An" It was the frontier city of Hunan, Chongqing, adjacent to (and how could I then realized that it was recommended to the Internet "Chongqing Xiushan Hong An in what only sell wonton and noodle casserole for an old married couple at home to taste the ribs stew noodle soup delicious, but also in a small restaurant to taste authentic Sichuan cuisine "place, possibly in the vicinity of it. there is my favorite Guizhou ah, but also missed a). The Nazuo block mountain sunset can be Xiushan it? No wonder I was still pondering why the small-peasant mentality to ride the ferry every time we pay, while our side has always been one-way charge. kaka
Mix that was later seen crossing the cliff with the red paint on the brush of the Chen Lao new title of "Bordertown," the word, unfortunately I did not pay attention to. I just saw the boat crossing the upper reaches of hobble around a bridge, want to come and that it is time the bridge of the bar of tea Hung.
Ferry downstream to 100 meters from river north, turning an almost 90-degree bend. A man-made reservoir so that fast-flowing up a large shining white of the river next day with pool, filled his eyes. Shore meandering mountain road disappeared, close to the spiral pattern of the precipice.
Left leading through the colorful statue of the fair trade market, I follow the lug pole of the villagers into the mountains. Rugged mountain, the road ahead is often hidden in the mountains behind the charred and suddenly disappeared. My left is endless river, and mountain with a few meters of the drop, the more wide river, water Sheng Jian, the occasional street level with large stones piled-up access to flood, beach can see water buffalo, a canoe trip in Hanoi. My right is not to the point of the corn, there had been cuckoo was calling, Kongguhuiyin not be extinguished, In addition, only my heart.
Villagers have gradually gone away, I would Lianzhe rivers breathing Shitu. Mountain high and sometimes, when the end of a narrow width, there is a balance beam, or as a high ridge. On the road not see a family, and only heaven, earth, I am.
Suddenly the mountains Piaoqi the strands of rain drift, I will return back to (the next day I move on along this road. About 1 hour later and saw the first village is a primary entrance to the village, the villagers, but dozens of households, all lived in the cottage, with chickens and ducks were Zhuzai neighbors. mountain is still meandering, occasional traces of rut, and asked the question, saying it was leading to the ride I did yesterday, when passing to a small village. There have been very far away from the river , and hear the water sound, only the wind. retrace time, face a lot seems to have come back from the border town of secondary school students back to school, even heard of a rag big kid's mouth hum, "left broke a pair of shoes", ax), bought some fruit and sat down the stone steps Binhe watch the sunset.
Seen in the mountain road with the roar of the river is different from this section flows through the tea Cave is a peaceful and leisurely, the opposite of accents Xiushan Guilin mountains and rivers make it a little quiet, like a postcard Side pieces before your eyes fixed grid.
Xu is a dinner, and shore collection from a growing number of women and children. Eurya plastic tube women squatting on the stone stairs to the laundry, and occasionally say hello familiar pull more homely. Washing clothes on the inside of the cylinder washing himself, incidentally, there are clothes, and then jumped out of the water on the lap swim ashore and then turned a somersault to change clothes. I sat on one arm, but they are far away from where they poured out of the water can be splashed on me, they smile more than I can be brilliant. Daoshi ten-year-old girl more restrained, several cross-dressed in good clothes in the river during the day playing, age is also a small sitting life buoy to play, and then wet to walk home. Women and girls are packed with a small shampoo shampoo and spent it on down the river down stream of waste paper.
The men will have to swim across the river, in the river out of the middle of a rocky beach on the impact of a change of cloth. Occasionally, there are several passing, will always look steadily. While those of the elderly can only pick dark side with the latter road washing.
That day, there is no sunset sky is always overcast with. I was in the women's hammer clothing girls giggling sound and voice of the lost time is never seen in eyeful. Like the dark and dawn, which was but a moment between. Tianshui night blurred but I know they are out there, always there.
Several junctions in the city hanging naked orange street lights, some selling daily necessities and supply of barbecue supper in the dark fluorescent lit shops and other places, we can only Baituo firefly has. They really like the creatures, fly so slowly, then at the end, my back Longzhu a green wings and let it crawl in your hand.
The city secondary schools, Internet cafes, hospitals, tailor shop, selling "casual" and soda fountain, but could not find a place selling vcd.
Tea Cave of the bridge a lot of short and narrow bridge, railings short and dense, almost all of rusty iron. There is an inscription above the back of the color was shocked, "Border Town Bridge" words. Tea Cave should also be Water Village people, probably because the topography of housing higher than rivers, the tributaries under the bridge has been very shallow, almost did not move up, there is no sound, this point and the Phoenix, like drop a little Smart, and then coupled with its silence, so this retreat of the colors sounded even more dust town. Yet I love this original vicissitudes of life, loneliness Gong different kind red flowers.
The beauty of tea Cave, Kunming, after following the ratio I have seen the highest. In fact, a total also see the two, the latter after a child, a pregnant woman, but this is only several hundred people living in a small place, in my fleeting stay less than 24 hours time, plus nitpicking The high demand, as I who had already mouth-watering. And their beauty, and the streets of Kunming, the young woman who whitewash the image of another big difference, not in the carving but it is certainly stunning startle vulgar.
Tea, snacks and the Phoenix Cave essentially the same, but do not mung bean flour Phoenix Road, although the green bean soup is really thirst-quenching. The next day's breakfast and I have not seen it is the Phoenix, that was a side of the road is now fried vegetables with meat or subsidence of the surface cake. As the kids to do is get up early business, its shape will be inflicted incredible octopus or a flat ball. I would also like to get up early, as children, racing around the pan to it both ways.
The next day afternoon, I watched the last one river, to leave the car. Do not want a few months later, that night in the river, suddenly became a place of my wet dreams. But I never dare fantasy, middle of the night there is a person's voice float my soul.
