Yan Feng terraced cauliflower fragrance log

As soon as I heard this nursery rhyme, I remembered my lovely hometown, as if I smelled the fragrance of rape flowers floating from the terraced fields in Yan Feng.

Shaanxi is the most beautiful in southern Shaanxi, Hanyin is the most beautiful in southern Shaanxi, and Hanyin is the most beautiful in March.

It's early spring in southern Shaanxi. In the spring of March, the spring is chilly, and it is warm and cold at first sight. When the wheat seedlings in Guanzhong Plain accumulated enough strength for a winter, they desperately stretched their necks upwards and rushed to the heights. Overnight, the rape flowers on the terraced fields in Yan Feng, at the southern foot of Fenghuang Mountain in Hanyin County, Shaanxi Province, competed to bloom under the cry of "Cuckoo Cuckoo" on Cuckoo Island!

This is a magical land, the hometown of phoenix, and the place where birds are attached.

This mountain is called Nanshan. According to legend, it used to be a wild place, with dense miasma, ten years and nine droughts, sparsely populated, constant wars, depressed people's livelihood and unpredictable wild animals. One day, a phoenix flew from the mountain. It sympathized with the people's suffering and shed tears. It stood on the top of the mountain and crowed for three months. I only cried with blood in my mouth, and the mountain river moved, and the beast python disappeared. The bird touched the Queen Mother, so she dipped the nectar in the vase with a branch and spilled it on the ground. In a blink of an eye, dew turned into rain, the crystal clear Han River. Nanshan suddenly has beautiful scenery, lush green springs, birds and flowers, and is full of vitality, making it a holy mountain with rich products and harmonious water. The bird flew away, and Nanshan people did not forget the lucky bird that brought them happiness. In order to be grateful, Nanshan was renamed Phoenix Mountain. The top of the mountain where it stood and cried became Feng Mingling, the top of the mountain where it rested became Phoenix Ridge, the place where it shed its hair became Damaoba, the place where it wept became Phoenix Pool, and the place where it wept became Fengjiang.

Yan Feng's 10,000-acre terraced fields are a gem embedded in this Baoshan. The colorful golden flowers blooming on the gem are terraced rape flowers.

I have traveled all over the country, east and west, north and south, and seen rape blossoms in many places. I think what impressed me the most was the rape blossoms on the terraced fields in Yan Feng, which I will never forget.

There are many places where rape flowers bloom in China. Wherever rape can grow, there are rape flowers in paddy fields and dry land. Yunnan, Guizhou and Hanzhong also have "Rape Flower Festival". But I think the rape flowers on terraced fields in Yan Feng are the most beautiful in my heart.

The rape flower on the terraced fields in Yan Feng is amazing, because it hangs in the sky, hides in the clouds, grows on the Phoenix Mountain and grows in the 10,000-acre terraced fields in the Ming and Qing Dynasties. It is three-dimensional, dynamic, talking and telling stories. Going there can not only see ten thousand mu of terraces, but also enjoy rape blossoms. Rape flowers in other places are flat, motionless and silent. It is either planted in an endless paddy field or grows on a gentle slope. Although each has its own characteristics, each has its own charm. For example, in Wuyuan, Jiangxi, you can enjoy Huizhou ancient houses submerged in the sea of flowers, just like white walls and gray tiles flowing in fairyland. In Guizhou, you can watch Shantou Mountain floating in the sea of golden rape flowers, similar to the mountains and rivers in Guilin, with different heights. They are like a splash-ink rendered landscape painting, and the rape flowers on Hanyin terraced fields are more like a giant sculpture carved with great care. Perhaps it is because of the feelings of being born and raised in Sri Lanka. In contrast, I love Yan Feng terraced rapeseed more.

Watch the rape flowers growing on the flat ground in other places, unless you stand on the top of the mountain or have a bird's eye view from an airplane or parachute, so that you can see the whole picture of the flower sea, and this beautiful picture can be unfolded before your eyes. If you stand in the rape field, all you see is a straight thick yellow flower, which extends from your feet to the horizon. Except for flowers, there is no three-dimensional sense and no visual impact at all.

Rape flowers in terraced fields in Yan Feng are not so bland. Terraces and rape blossoms are beautiful, but first of all, let every tourist scream, pick up the machine in his hand and shoot non-stop. It is not terraced fields and rape blossoms, but the spectacular scenery of Phoenix Mountain and Cangshan Sea of Clouds that people in big cities rarely see.

In the early morning of March, when you drive over the girder of Phoenix Mountain and stand on the observation deck of Laojunguan or the observation deck of Yan Feng terraces, you will definitely feel a strange feeling that you have never felt before. In the north, it depends on the vigorous and masculine beam of Phoenix Mountain, which is dark blue. In the west, it looks at the Tiewa Hall, the main peak of Phoenix Mountain. In the distance, it looks at the drum platform of Taoist Fairy Mountain where Zhang Fei once broke the enemy. In the south, it looks at the clear and green mother river Han River, which is called Yue and stands out from the crowd. All other mountains look like dwarfs under the blue sky .. The top of their heads is as clean as washing. Wan Li's blue eyes are empty, and white clouds like mushrooms are flying in the boundless sky of Wan Li. My Sweetie's mountain breeze blows gently head-on, and my heart is filled with endless comfort.

Baiyun moves with the wind, like a skilled magician, and changes into different shapes and patterns in a blink of an eye. At the foot is the vast sea of clouds, and the misty ocean as far as the eye can see. It takes the mountains, terraces, rape flowers, homes, ponds, canals and trees below the contour line of 1000 meters above sea level and hides them. There is only a vast expanse of whiteness in front of me. This is an ocean of clouds, and this is a world of fog. It's great to be there. Being in a sea of clouds and fog really makes you feel like a fairy. The fog is full, the clouds cover the fog cover, the wind is surging, the white waves are sky-high, and the layers are rolling. In the distance, hills of different shapes have become isolated islands floating in the sea of clouds. The sun rises slowly from the valley in the east, and a red sun shines brightly through the thin morning light. It's getting closer and closer to Phoenix Mountain. Sunlight stung the morning mist, tore the sea of clouds and sucked up its water bit by bit. The sun and the clouds competed with each other, and finally the sun defeated the clouds. The sea of clouds slowly receded and the dense fog gradually dispersed. Suddenly, the eagle-eyed tourist gave a burst of exclamation: "terrace! Look at the terraced rapeseed! " Everyone immediately stopped filming and turned their eyes to the dense sea of clouds and fog layers that were torn by the sun. I saw the terraces behind her guitar, which were covered with golden rape flowers. They were shy and didn't show their faces. They are looming in the thick clouds and fog, occasionally revealing exquisite beauty.

In a short time, another mountain wind blew from the top of the mountain, blowing a chill, blowing the fragrance of mountain flowers, blowing the rich fragrance of rape flowers, blowing the wet fog, blowing away the fog and dispersing the clouds. When the thick clouds and dense fog are completely dispersed and the whole terrace is completely exposed to tourists, it will immediately make people ecstatic, dance and send out heartfelt admiration. It strongly impacts people's visual nerves and gives a strong shock to the viewer's mind. The terraced fields covered with golden rape flowers, like huge sculptures, huge oil paintings and glittering silks and satins, spread slowly and like rain from the ridge of Phoenix Mountain at an altitude of 1000 meters, from the towering cliffs, from the body of Phoenix Mountain and from the mountainside of the towering mountain. Against the backdrop of lush green hills and blue sky and white clouds, it is particularly dazzling and spectacular. It is squeezed layer by layer, layer by layer, layer by layer, like a ladder to the sky, like an irregular puzzle, like a bright Thangka. They never intertwine with each other and never overlap. Continuous, lingering, head to head, arm in arm, has been extended to the Han River. Terraces, big or small, wide or narrow, long or short, have different shapes and must not be copied. It is absolutely impossible to find two identical terraces. These countless, absolutely horizontal lines, on the steep or slightly flat ground, carved out one after another slender platforms of different shapes and sizes. One long platform after another twists and turns around countless ridges and bays. From a distance, it looks like a contour drawn on a map, like a staff carved on the earth, like a note jumping between heaven and earth. Terraces full of rape flowers, like golden dragons, swim freely in the mountains and stretch their muscles. There is even a golden dragon who sees the head but doesn't see the tail, twisting his head and body on the ridge of the beam, but the dragon tail is mysteriously hidden in the deep valley. The ridge of terraced fields is khaki, horizontal, curved and across the earth; The rape flowers in the terraced fields are golden yellow, and the rape stalks are vertical, vertical and vertical. Vertical and horizontal, khaki and golden yellow, interwoven or intertwined, have a three-dimensional sense, a sense of picture and a rich sense of hierarchy.

This is an old story. During the Tongzhi period of the Qing Dynasty, a group of brave and knowledgeable Wu people, inspired by the Qing government's "reclamation order", moved here from their hometown in Hunan with their families and families. After several generations of reclamation, these terraced fields scattered on dozens of ridges, large and small, were finally reclaimed at the southern foot of Fenghuang Mountain and flourished here.

For 200 years, Yan Fengren never dreamed of it. Inadvertently, these old ancestors cultivated land for generations and accompanied them day and night. In their eyes, ordinary ancient terraces have become cultural heritage, national 4A scenic spots, key cultural relics protection units in Shaanxi Province, national water conservancy scenic spots, beautiful countryside in China and Phoenix Mountain National Forest Park. It has become a precious tourist resource, which will stay at their doorstep forever and bring them endless wealth, and no one can move it away.

The masterpieces left by these ancestors can be described as ingenious and ingenious, which amazed the world. Add up to more than ten thousand mu. According to statistics, there are more than 500 terraces. The terraced fields are not integrated, not integrated into a large area. One big piece in the north, one big piece in the south, one bunch in the east and several bunches in the west. Between terraces, it is intermittent. It is built with mountains, and usually a mountain ridge is a piece. Different landforms determine the length, width and size of terraces. The terrace will be wide when it is slow, and it will be wide when it is slow. Rape flowers are not connected together, but distributed one by one in the gully on the ridge of the field.

Land contracting to households and mobilization. Farmers have their own opinions. You can't force what you want to grow. As a result, some planted rape, some planted wheat, and some "soaked in winter fields." Fill it with water, freeze it into ice, freeze the brittle soil, and you can sow in May. On the contrary, it is more attractive, more diverse and more ornamental. Blue-green winter wheat fields and watered winter fields, blinking in the sun, soaking like a sparkling mirror, mixed with golden rape fields, accompanied by farmhouses, trees, weitang, canals, sidewalks, buffaloes, shepherds, flutes and tractor-ploughed roads, accompanied by smoke rising, show infinite vitality and vitality, like a very thick poem, like a very thick one.

Huizhou farmhouses with white walls and gray tiles embedded in terraced fields are like pearls scattered in the sea of golden flowers. Wide roads and narrow roads string pearls together. The weir pond filled with water is like a water hyacinth floating on the sea surface of Huang Jinhua. The trees and bushes beside the weir and in front of and behind the house have become an indispensable genius and green ornament on this golden picture.

Unlike terraced fields on the flat land, terraced fields do not need to consume electricity to pump water, nor do they need to dig canals to divert water for irrigation. Phoenix Mountain has abundant rainfall, humid climate, close to Hanshui River, misty, rolling mountains, surrounded by white clouds, moist dew, waterfalls all over Ganquan, and flowing water all year round. The water is as high as the Phoenix Mountain. The ancestors of immigrants dug ditches along the mountain to draw mountain springs, and irrigated by themselves from high to low and from top to bottom, saving energy and protecting the environment. The mountains are full of water, and the rivers are full of water, so that the place names here are all water. Fengjiang, Yanping, Pingxi, Weixi, Vortex and Hanyang. ...

Yan Feng people work at sunrise, rest at sunset, dig wells for drinking, and are self-sufficient. Everything is primitive and natural. The soil is rich in selenium, irrigated by Ganquan, and applied with organic fertilizer, and the terraced rape is stable and high-yielding, and the oil is black and shiny. Every oil-squeezing season, the oil of soil and vegetables spilled from the oil-squeezing factory will float ten miles away. Mountain people eat their own vegetable oil all year round, and the fried dishes are particularly attractive and have a long aftertaste.

In May, after the rape harvest, we began to plow, rake, release water and transplant rice seedlings. Come back then, and you will see another breathtaking sight. The terraced fields filled with water on the gullies and beams are like shining silver mirrors in Qian Qian under the reflection of sunlight and moonlight. The fields are criss-crossing and glittering, which is heaven and earth.

Spring blossoms and autumn fruits abound. In autumn, terraced fields present another kind of beauty. That is the beauty of harvest and maturity. The rice flowers are fragrant, the ears of grain are heavy, the ridges are full and the fruits are numerous. Selenium-enriched rice produced by terraced fields is full of grains, white as jade, nutritious and nourishing, and its lips and teeth remain fragrant.

Rape blossoms, and beekeepers chase flowers. The beehives on the big trucks are full of thousands of hardworking little bees. Overnight, countless tents were set up among the rape flowers in the terraced fields. That's the home of honey pickers and bees. "The Prince Picking Honey" The bees followed the flowers and encouraged little wings to fly tirelessly in the rape field. Take the honey powder back to the hive, spit it out, climb out of the hive and fly to the flowers. Honey collectors who work as hard as bees have a living map in their hearts, and they can accurately calculate the place and time when flowers bloom and fall. They always follow the flowering period and go wherever there are rape flowers. Rape flower is their treasure, rape flower is their soul and rape flower is their lifeblood. At this time, the owner of rape flowers is holding his fingers and expecting their arrival.

When they come, rape flowers will also smile, with a smile on their faces. This is a small food chain, natural and natural, with the unity of man and nature, man and insect, and mutual benefit. Bees collect honey, feed the queen bee and bees, and pollinate rape. Honey pickers harvested honey, the owner increased production, and rapeseed cake residue fattened the field. Rape is indispensable, and honey collection is beneficial and harmless, and everyone is happy.

In their spare time, three or more friends meet, hide in the depths of white clouds, nest in the embrace of terraced fields, drown in the sea of green trees and rape flowers in Huang Cancan, and drown in the farmyard with white walls and gray tiles. There is a small table under the loquat tree. A buffalo named Cleisthenes was tied to a tree, and a dog with a tail was crawling around his knees. There is a "giggle" free-range native chicken pecking at the ground under the table. Sit on the bamboo chair in the back of the chair, take a breath, immerse yourself in the ocean of rape flowers, stand on the 10,000-mu terraced fields moistened by the sweet spring of Phoenix Mountain, taste the mellow and refreshing Phoenix Mountain tea before tomorrow, gulp the moist and sweet air, smell the fragrance of rape flowers floating in the wind, listen to the tea songs that girls pick tea from the tea garden, appreciate the scenery, talk about parting feelings, and have a long talk.
