There is a place in Shangyi called Stone Man's Back.

? Text/Hai Xia

Shiren Back is a place name, in the rolling mountains of shangyi county, Zhangjiakou, Hebei. The first time I learned that The Back of the Stone Man turned out to be the prose travel notes of the old writer Zhang Dianyong. In the travel notes, the writer described the back of a stone man with sharp brushwork, which made me envious. From then on, the back of the stone man was deeply imprinted in my mind, which gave me the idea of not giving up until I got the back of the stone man.

? There's an outdoor sports organization going behind the stone man. I can't wait to join. In the morning, we set off from Zhangjiakou and went to Shangyi along Zhangshi Highway. The weather is not very good. It rained in the middle of the night last night. When I got up early in the morning, there was smog in Zhangjiakou, which has always been beautiful. The farther north, the greater the fog. The Zhangshi Expressway is closed, and the bus driver is an experienced old driver. Afraid of delaying our trip, he took us along the old national road and crossed Zhangbei to Shangyi. After Shangyi County, we turned to the country road. It was midsummer, and rows of yam, naked oats, flax and rape were everywhere on the roadside. Yam has white flowers, flax has purple flowers and rape has yellow flowers. The budding naked oats are sandwiched in the middle and spread out one by one, like a mottled carpet, making the whole earth extraordinarily enchanting. The country road is very narrow, the bus is struggling on the rugged road, and we are enjoying the colorful scenery outside the window. Unconsciously, we embarked on the road, and cultivated land gradually became less and less. Trees, stones, flowers and plants come into view, and I know that the back of the stone man is coming soon.

? Sure enough, after several turns, the heavens and the earth suddenly opened up, and a newly paved oil highway flashed a dark light on the lush grassland. Not far away, wind-driven windmills stood there like rows of well-trained soldiers. Clouds kept fiddling with various postures on them, but they were still spinning without me. There are two cabins standing next to them, which form a perfect picture with the grassland windmill highway.

The driver pointed to a pile of stones not far away and said, "That's the back of a stone man."

? Hearing the back of the stone man, the car full of people immediately got excited. Everyone packed their wild clothes and walked happily to the distant stone pile.

? This is a heavenly road built on the top of the mountain. We walked through the grass and windmills and walked towards the rising stones in the distance. Wow! Walking to the front, I found that these stones are really unusual. Some are like human heads, some are like animal bodies, some are like chickens, some are like ducks, birds, hearts and ... elephants. Go any further and you can't help but stop. It turns out that we are standing at the highest place! The mountains in front of us are endless, misty and green, and the rocks at the foot are hundreds of meters higher than these mountains! The mountains are like green wild pythons at their feet, hunched and slowly drifting away into the distance. Clouds are changing different roles in the fog curtain, and it is foggy. The fog jumped out from behind the distant mountain, surging and dissipating bit by bit. Behind him is a vast plateau grassland, windmills, wooden houses, white clouds, blue sky, sunshine and expressway. There are clouds and mountains in front of us. Behind him are blue sky and white clouds, and the sun is shining. One landscape, two styles, one world and two climates really surprise people.

Walking along the ridge, the whole mountain corridor is unobstructed. The stone man we walked with his back to the ridge on the left, the windmill on the top of the mountain on the right, and a stream between the two mountains made a boundary ridge. The ridge on the right side of the stone man's back is the plateau grassland. Compared with the rugged rocks on the ridge, the crevices on the ridge are full of all kinds of exotic flowers and herbs, bright red, pure yellow, elegant purple, lofty white and blue pink ... In short, all kinds of brilliant mountain flowers shake the summer scenery, together with hundreds of herbs, with the breeze and leaves *.

? "There is no road in the world. If there are many people walking, it will become a road.

? Lu Xun.

The scenery is the same. The more people talk, the more people watch. The more people watch, the more people come here to play, and the name is farther away ... so is the stone man's back. For many years, Shiren Back has been located in the backcountry. It turned out to be a deserted barren mountain. For thousands of years, he stood there alone, enduring isolation. Who knows that once discovered, it attracted the love and praise of countless people.

? Indeed, there are mountains, slopes, strange rocks, barren land, steep mountains and different rocks everywhere. The rocks all over the mountains are not only grotesque, but also have many inexplicable lines branded on them, such as swords, such as whipping axes and chisels. If you look at them carefully, they are amazing and beautiful. On the mountainside, under the cover of all kinds of weeds, countless seeping springs seeped silently from cracks in rocks from different directions and gathered at the foot of the mountain, forming a continuous stream, clear and sweet, flowing all the way along the mountain to distant villages. Just like the history that has been rushing for thousands of years, whether it is summarized or not, it is moving forward.

In recent years, due to the continuous development of wind power generation system, the stone man's back has gradually entered the world's vision. The local government has seen business opportunities from more and more tourists and invested heavily in transforming it into a geological park.

? Shirenbei Geopark is located along the dam in Taolizhuang Township, shangyi county City, Hebei Province, 55 kilometers away from Shangyi County. It is only 0/0 km away from the second-class highway of provincial highway Yangha Line, covering an area of more than 270 mu, and is the largest natural geological park in North China. Because there are a pair of pictographs in the mountain, it seems that adults are carrying children, so it is named "Stone Man's Back".

According to expert research, 25 million years ago, due to the earthquake fracture, the current background map of the stone man was formed. The terrain on the mountain is gentle, the flowers and plants are lush, and the rocks below are rugged and steep. Juniper, birch, old elm and wild wolfberry are dotted among them, and the water at the foot of the mountain gurgles day and night. Small cattle and sheep, scattered in the sky. Stone man, stone carving, stone horse, stone elephant, Shi Wa, stone cat, stone camel, stone rat, stone turtle, stone snake, stone peak, stone pillar, etc. There are vivid images and different shapes, which are beautiful and ugly. Let anyone, as long as you enter its world, it immediately seems to enter another space. You must want to know what the two Bibi people standing side by side are looking at. Couples who come in, what do they want to say? There are also old people carrying children. Where are they in a hurry? The camel is lying on the top of the mountain, full of things, and refuses to take another step. What's the matter? ..... all kinds of strange things, "Looking horizontally, the mountain side becomes a peak, and the distance is different." When you look at all the stone peaks and stone forests from different angles, they will become different shapes, forms and meanings as if they were enchanted. Let every angle give you a different imagination.

In this way, I kept walking, touching and thinking in the mountains with my stirring magnetic wave.

Sitting on the top of the mountain to take a photo, leaning on flowers and dreaming ... I just want to be a leisurely human guest, regardless of honor or disgrace.

The grass is fine and delicate, and the mountain wind is strange. Compared with this mountain, centenary is spring grass? Is it a summer flower? Is it a flying insect? Is it a butterfly? Is it a breeze? Is it a cloud? Or the spring water seeping from the mountain stream, roll before leaving ...

The wind never stops, the clouds never stop, and time never stops. What will we leave behind?

The world is fuzzy, and the sun and the moon remain unchanged. What will we be in 25 million years? Stone? Weeds? Wind? Cloud? Or another ignorant self walking on the earth?

July 2019,21at home. 、

The cricket crawled on the flowers and leaves, looking for his partner.

I don't know if the water in this divine spring is the groundwater seeping from the mountain stream behind the stone man.

People in Shirenbei Village live a long life, which is said to be related to this spring.

Look, clouds are rolling in from the hillside. ...

At the end of the ridge, there is a village called Shirenbei Village.

The hump stone is right in front of my eyes. Did you get a look at him? That little bit.

Has it been decided for a long time that this stone camel was full of goods 25 million years ago? Many years later, there will be a golden road trodden by camels? Look, isn't that the direction the camel looks at? Is it Zhangjiakou?

Is it like a giant stone pot?

Standing on the ridge behind the stone man, I photographed the world in front of me.

I call it the lovers stone.

At the foot is a baizhang cliff.

Our Great Wall Guard stopped by to visit the local Great Wall.
