It rained the night before, but it didn't stop the next morning. Fortunately, the spring rain has been raining, which has not affected my hiking plan.

At 6 o'clock in the morning, we set out for Dayi County and made an appointment with our friends. Because he went in another direction, we agreed to meet in yue lai zhen, Dayi County, not far from the hiking place.

Our hiking plan this time is to enter the mountain from Longwozi, cross the mountain to the Kaihua Temple in Wuzhongshan, with one side about 15km, and the distance is a little longer. In order to save energy and avoid going back the same way, we originally planned to park one car at Kaihua Temple and another car at Longwozi. After all, Kaihua Temple is less than 20km away from Longwozi, and it is only a big deal for two cars to run 20km more.

However, considering that this route is our first trip, because the unpopular, road conditions and direction are all identified by the trajectory of other disciples on the Internet, and the weather is not good, I don't know whether I can cross Kaihua Temple smoothly, so I finally gave up my previous idea and prepared to take Longwozi into the mountain first, as the case may be.

1.5 hours after driving, I arrived in yue lai zhen, met my friends and went to Qinglong Village where Longwozi was located.

I remember coming to Qinglong Village for Zhong Nanshan three months ago, and now I have set foot on it again. Although the rainy scenery is a little hazy, I still arrived at the entrance of the village and saw Zhong Nanshan's familiar figure in front of the expressway.

At the gate of the farmhouse next to the car, I asked the old man who lived in it. She didn't seem to know that she could walk from Longwozi to Kaihua Temple in Wuzhongshan, only told me the route into the mountain in detail.

There are two entrances to the mountain, and we chose the Zhong Nanshan Taoist Temple at the entrance of the village.

Along the cement road next to the Taoist temple, although the car can drive to the end of the road, it is steep and steep, especially in rainy days, the road is slippery and the walking is the most stable.

It's 9 o'clock in the morning, and it doesn't rain much. You can still take an umbrella along the road.

Walking up a distance, the scenery in the mountains gradually stands out. In spring, the vegetation turns green, and the distant mountains are worn, which is more fresh and ethereal in the rain and fog.

After half an hour, I finally walked the cement road and entered the mountain forest section, followed by a cement trail about one meter wide.

At this time, our hiking trip officially began.

At the corner of the mountain forest, the vision becomes wide, surrounded by mountains, and the back hill of He Mingshan stands tall.

The mountain next to it is green, steep and steep, and that is Mount Zhongnan.

Walking along the path, there are cliffs on one side and deep ravines on the other, which is a bit like the plank road outside Yinguang Cave in Qianyuan Mountain, Jiangyou.

The difference is that there is plenty of water here, and the flowing water between the gullies is swift and powerful, which resounds through the valley.

Here, you will enter the Longwozi Mountains.

Longwozi, adjacent to Zhongnanshan, was cultivated by Han Xiangzi, one of the legendary Eight Immortals. It is far from Laoguanding, the highest peak in heming, the birthplace of Taoism in China, and is connected with Wuzhongshan, the first stop of Buddhism's spread to the south. There is also a legend of Qinglong gathering place.

Going upstream along the valley, it rained heavily, and the umbrella was no longer suitable for such an environment, so I had to change into a raincoat.

Maybe it's because of the rain. There were almost no other tourists along the way except me and my friends.

Along the way, except for a cement mountain road for tourists, the rest are very primitive natural scenery, with lush vegetation and beautiful scenery. It is said that Longwozi is a summer resort for summer tourists.

1 1 in the morning, after two hours' hiking, we finally finished the cement mountain road. This journey is a relatively mature and safe tourist passage.

At the end of the cement road, the terrain is flat and open, the water flow slows down and villages appear. This is the destination that most tourists choose on foot.

But our journey from Longwozi to Kaihua Temple in Wuzhishan has just begun.

Leave the cement road and move on. The foot turned into a muddy path embedded with bluestone, which was a bit muddy in rainy days.

But in my opinion, you have to go this way to feel it.

Still along the ravine, but the road is smoother than before, the surrounding mountains are more open, and the view of the scenic spot is much better than before.

There are even patches of grasslands and forests, just like entering a primitive secret field.

Crossing many streams along the way is full of wild interest, but such road conditions are very dangerous if the water rises in the rainy season.

Occasionally, after passing the local houses, the houses built by mountain people with wood and planks are primitive, but they also look wet on rainy days.

A local old man in Lu Yu learned through conversation that most of the residents in the mountain moved to the resettlement community of Qinglong Village under the mountain because of the inconvenient transportation here, and only a few old people stayed here.

Although it is remote, with the rise of tourism in Longwozi, there are many tourists who come here for summer vacation every summer. By the way, the local people who stay in the mountains can start farmhouses and sell local products to increase their economic income.

When the old man heard that we were going to Kaihua Temple, he was very surprised. He was even more surprised to learn that there were only two of us and we didn't know the way.

According to what she said, if you want to go to Kaihua Temple, you have to cross the pass at the top of the mountain in front, and you have to walk several miles of mountain roads to cross the pass. It's enough for us to climb the pass from here. Even the locals seldom go that way once, which may be deserted. She expressed her concern about how we can go to Kaihua Temple.

I told her to go wherever she could, and if she couldn't find the way, she would go back the same way. Without taking risks, the old people would be relieved.

Say goodbye to the old man and let's move on.

12 am, after the last one, the village section has been completed.

Looking back at the direction when they came, the cold mountains were misty and rainy, and the farmers lived in seclusion. No wonder they are unwilling to leave.

After the last ravine, there is another mountain, and then I walk into a slightly difficult section.

We walked into a Metasequoia forest. There is an almost vertical slope in the forest, and the rocky road surface washed by the current is steep and rugged, which makes it a little tired to walk.

Roughly calculated, from the valley to the mountain pass, the altitude rises by about 300 meters, which accounts for one third.

Surprisingly, houttuynia cordata began to appear on the roadside. I think most people can't resist the temptation of this wild vegetable.

The higher you go, the more Metasequoias there are on the mountain, and the trees are older than those at the foot of the mountain.

In spring, everything recovers, and new green leaves grow on the bare branches of Metasequoia glyptostroboides, which is full of vitality.

But when Metasequoia glyptostroboides leaves are red in autumn, the scenery here should be more beautiful.

After more than half an hour, through the Metasequoia glyptostroboides forest, an open area appeared in front of me.

On the ground, the growth of Houttuynia cordata Thunb is more vigorous than at the beginning. Obviously, the land here is much more fertile.

But at this time, we ignored those gratifying houttuynia cordata, because there seems to be no road ahead.

The road full of weeds and thorns has nowhere to go, and the mobile phone map shows that it has deviated from the track. At this time, it is raining heavily.

Fortunately, this is not a virgin forest. Standing on the open hillside, you can still vaguely see the farmhouse in the opposite ravine, and this kind of situation has often happened before, so you are not worried.

Just when we hesitated to give up, our eagle-eyed friend accidentally found the road signs left by other outdoor teams in the grass.

According to the road sign, we tried to move on and walked into a bamboo forest.

The bamboo here is small and dense. There are inconspicuous traces of people walking in the bamboo forest, and there are road signs left by outdoor teams at regular intervals, so we passed through this bamboo forest smoothly in less than 10 minutes.

Back to the straight road, it is still Metasequoia forest, and it is not far from here to the mountain pass.

The rest of the road is not difficult, or uphill, but the road is covered with dead leaves, and under the dead leaves is soil soaked by rain, which makes it easy to slip when stepping on it.

Road signs left by outdoor teams can still be seen from time to time along the way. Thanks to these road signs, we won't go wrong.

At 1: 30 in the afternoon, we finally reached the barrier. It took four and a half hours to get here from Qinglong village at 9 am.

The mountain pass is surrounded by dense bushes. Through the branches and leaves, you can only see a few nearby peaks, but you can't see Wuzhongshan and Kaihua Temple, but you can already hear the sound of cars driving below.

After crossing the pass, it is downhill. Looking at the track map, the distance to Kaihua Temple is about one third of the whole journey.

The front is blocked by thorns and vines, and the feet are muddy. It seems that the rest of the journey is not easy

However, our hiking trip will stop here, because the road ahead is dangerous and unknown, and long-term hiking has consumed too much physical strength. Even when we arrived at Kaihua Temple, there was no transportation, so we had to go back the same way. Moreover, the rain has not stopped, and my friends and I are basically soaked, so there is no need to take the risk.

Yakou is over 600 meters above sea level 1, which is obviously chilly. Stop for a while and we'll go back the same way.

After passing through the empty hillside again, we picked a handful of houttuynia cordata. This may be the biggest gain of this trip.

It is easier to go up than down, and the road down is no easier than up. I stumbled several times along the way, and my raincoat was scratched by branches, and my shoes and trouser legs were covered with mud. I joked with my friends that we seemed to be running away.

Although I didn't reach Kaihua Temple successfully, the process of hiking in rainy days was a different experience. Those beautiful mountains and waters and the original village landscape are also a kind of visual enjoyment.
