If you haven’t been to the Great Wall, you’re not a true man. If you haven’t been to Jiankou, it’s a pity.

After many twists and turns, the long-awaited trip to Jiankou arrived as scheduled on the eve of the Dragon Boat Festival. Eleven people and two cars loaded with luggage, full of enthusiasm and ready to set off. Li Qing, Sister Feng, who could not accompany me, and the geese flying far away came to see me off with regrets and blessings!

The Jiankou Great Wall is so named because the entire section of the Great Wall winds in a W shape, resembling a bow full of arrows. It is one of the most famous dangerous sections of the Great Wall in the Ming Dynasty.

Xizhazi Village is famous for the Great Wall, and the villagers have also benefited from the Great Wall. The Great Wall resisted many invading foreign enemies a thousand years ago, and it still benefits all people a thousand years later. The Great Wall sung in the song will never fall, but the spirit that the Great Wall has placed in us will remain standing even more.

Jiankou, which we are not yet familiar with, has long been a must-go route for travel enthusiasts from all over the world. A quick search on the Internet will bring up nearly a hundred guides. So you don’t need to look forward or backward, you just need to give yourself the courage to leave.

Navigating all the way to Huairou, Beijing, Inner Mongolia people should not waste their title of foodies wherever they go. When they arrive at Zhuozi Mountain, they cannot miss the famous smoked chicken. When passing by Jining, they must taste the various styles. Authentic oatmeal noodles with soup, eating, drinking and having fun all the way to Huairou easily arrived at 5pm.

According to the plan, we went to Xizhazi Village to camp, but we were so happy that the navigation system of our car stopped working in time. Without communication between the two cars, the five of us drove directly to the Fifth Ring Road, which happened to be During the peak traffic jam period, it was already ten o'clock in the evening when we arrived at the destination after many twists and turns.

My relaxed nerves suddenly felt tired, but there were differences on the issue of accommodation. In my opinion, since it was a heavy installation, there was no doubt that I would live in a tent, so I would live with a tent. The farmers have lost the meaning of donkey walking, and they have also failed to live up to the natural beauty of this vast world of mountains and countryside!

Gang Yi, who arrived first, had already inquired about the price of the farmhouse, which was 500 yuan for three rooms for eleven people. At my suggestion, everyone reached a new consensus and set up camp on the spot.

In order to reduce the burden of the agreed upon two people per tent, and because we were tired and had to live in the car in the rainy weather tomorrow morning, Sister Li Yaya and I squeezed into my three-person tent. Although half of the eleven people experienced reinstallation for the first time, they still helped each other quickly and orderly to get ready and wash up.

Xizhazi Village, surrounded by mountains and rivers, has fresh air and green trees. Although it is covered in darkness, it is refreshing to look at it. Lying on the thick inflatable mattress in the tent, my body and mind gradually calmed down after running around for a day.

I still have that bad habit of not being able to sleep when I change places, and my tired body can’t control my wandering brain. Time flies so fast in my waking thoughts. Before I fall asleep, I hear the loud crow of a rooster. Oh my god, it turns out that the rooster crows like this. I have never heard such an original rooster crow in the middle of the night. . His voice was measured and meticulous, and his voice was cadenced and solemn. If you listen carefully, the singing voice still has a hoarse sound from sleep, and there is a reluctant hiccup at the end. It made me sleepless and excited to listen.

When I looked at my watch, it was just five minutes past two o'clock, and there were two calls... Listening to the eighth call, which was still sleepy, I couldn't help but burst out laughing. Sister Li and Sister Li next to me. Yaya also laughed. It seemed that I was not the only one who was awake. Yaya said depressedly: The rooster crows too early.

I forgot where I saw that the rooster crows once an hour. It seems that today is destined to be a sleepless night. I am quietly waiting for its next chime. Sure enough, at three o'clock and four o'clock, loyal to The responsible rooster performed his duties like a village chief. At four o'clock, a slightly old rooster finally crowed, and the two roosters sang in harmony.

In an instant, the chirping of lark and the chirping of sparrows were mixed with the dull "ah" sound of crows. In the chorus of hundreds of birds, the snoring of the next door also stopped abruptly, and the skylight filled the tent. It's daybreak...

Today's weather in Beijing: cloudy, east wind level 2, and the temperature throughout the day is 36℃~22℃. A day of running around and a night of sleepless nights did not affect our passion at all. Facing the wanton sun in the morning, we set off towards the arrow button.

On the green path in the forest, there is an occasional breeze, which is cool and comfortable. Birds chirp along the way, and fallen leaves cover the ground. The confident partners are still immersed in excitement.

As we went higher, the road conditions were no longer optimistic. The body that had not yet moved was weighed down by a big bag. The woods became denser and denser, and the sweltering heat made it difficult to breathe. Although the road covered with leaves was smooth and soft, it was still uphill all the way. We were so out of breath that we couldn't help but take a break after walking a few steps. I almost regretted my first step away from the Great Wall and started to worry.

The road leading to Jiuyan Tower is wild and unreasonable. Although it is not long, it is narrow and has cluttered trees. It bends down from time to time. You can only pass with your waist and four feet on the ground. It is precisely because the light clothing on this section of the road soothes our bodies and lays the foundation for the subsequent heavy equipment crawling.

The Jiuyan Tower is the largest beacon tower on the Great Wall in Beijing. Only one of the three floors is left, with nine arrow windows on each side, nine observation holes connecting the three side walls, and a circular passage in the middle. For soldiers to come and go on patrol. The mountains here are high and dangerous, and you can see the city of Beijing on a clear day, so it is also called "Wangjing Tower". It is one of the important pass of the Great Wall and the largest watchtower with the most lookout holes on the Great Wall. The dilapidated building has been repaired and restored.

Putting on new clothes, Jiuyan Tower has lost its vicissitudes and game, and is more like a man-made tourist attraction. Compared with the rugged and damaged path leading to her, it was more unreal! Because of this, there are fewer tourists coming to Jiuyan Tower. The Jiankou Great Wall is famous because of its wildness, unadornedness, and dangers along the way, and attracts travel enthusiasts from all over the world.

The outline of the Great Wall in the distance gradually becomes clearer, surrounded by mountains and green trees. It's like a long dragon winding in the mountain. With a history of thousands of years, this ancient building that has withstood wind, rain, snow and wind still appears strong and majestic before us. Looking at this majestic Chinese symbol, I couldn't help but feel excited and excited.

The Great Wall, which is still majestic and gorgeous from a distance, is dilapidated on the inside. The steps no longer exist. Carrying heavy luggage, we can only use our hands and feet to encourage each other to climb up...

The road under our feet is full of broken bricks and rubble, and there are broken walls everywhere. The road is full of potholes and broken bricks can be seen everywhere. From time to time, you will encounter a completely damaged road. Hold the trekking pole in your hand tightly and walk carefully step by step.

Stepping on the ancient Great Wall and touching the thousand-year-old wall bricks, the Great Wall stretches far into the distance, rises and falls, and is majestic. The mountains on both sides are overlapping. The magnificence created by human civilization and the majesty of nature are perfectly combined. Combined together, they condense into a breathtaking spirit and power. At this moment, my mind is particularly open, and I can't help but wave my stick and shout to express my full feelings.

The ladder is a steep slope of 70 degrees, about 80 meters long. It was these 80 meters that made me tremble with fear. It was relatively easy to climb up to find a foothold. On a wall that was vertical, flat, and even concave as we went down, it was difficult for me and Ya to find a foothold. It's not easy for someone with such short legs.

The big bag on my body bumped into the steps above from time to time, and I couldn't find a balance point at all. The steel bungee below shouted to turn over and get off, but I couldn't see the steps below. It's also out of reach, and the steps above are not as secure as the cracks in the stone. It's really a dilemma.

Yaya next to me was muttering: Who designed the steps? What does it mean to cause this? In the end, I had to take off the bag and move it down myself in the next section. Our big bag was so heavy that I couldn’t even carry it. When I carried it, I had to put it on a high place or have someone help me carry it. It could be carried at any time. They fooled me so much that I almost broke down and cried. Fortunately, Brother Wang came over in time to help me move the bag down, and he slowly moved it down while holding on to the wall.

The weather in the mountains is as unpredictable as a cat. Just a moment ago, the sky was clear and the sun was shining brightly. Suddenly his face darkened, and the thunder in the distance was like the angry shouts of the soldiers who had fought here. Could it be that the general was guarding the pass and the guards there did not want us to camp there and wanted to stop us. Got here? 0 Walking on the backbone of a dragon is like walking in the long river of history. Every broken wall brick reminds people of the magical legend, and every step of movement arouses the imagination of one's past and present lives.

After passing the watchtower in front, we arrived at the general guarding the gate. If we were lightly equipped, we could run over quickly, but the rain had already started to fall. When we got here, we had completed our reservation for today. Plan, several tents have been set up on the road ahead, and it is getting dark. For safety, we also decided to camp here. After a lot of fuss, I finally got into the tent before the heavy rain fell.

After the rain, the Great Wall looks hazy, like a silver-gray veil. After embracing the sky and the earth all night, I reluctantly let go of my hand, gently awakening the mountains and the uninvited guests in the mountains. The gradually rising blue clouds are as misty as the ink paintings painted by the painter. Some beautiful scenery is not just in the writer's pen, she really exists.

Looking at the Great Wall that I had left behind, I was instantly moved by myself. The sweat and tears along the way, all the worries and grievances disappeared in an instant, but I couldn’t help but want to cry again

It is said on the Internet that there is a section of road between General Shouguan and Jiankou that is so damaged that few people can pass it. I think this is probably the section they are talking about, right?

The entire city wall collapsed, and the weathered bricks almost turned into dirt. The steps turned into a pile of rubble. The gravel rolled when you walked on it. The path disappeared as you walked. You need to climb out from the broken wall and walk for a while and then climb back. There are many such sections. We will be inside the wall in a while. Outside the wall for a while.

The scenic spots we passed along the route were mostly inaccessible, with only eleven of us traveling through them. We almost collapsed as we walked straight and were about to cry without tears.

What makes people feel frightened and weak is the single-sided wall with no way to go. Fortunately, there are two strong young people, Gangbeng Binghan, although they are far away every time. Walking in front, but always waiting for us quietly when we reach dangerous places.

This is especially true. You also need to be brave and careful. If you are afraid of heights, you may have to cry a few times along the way. The broken wall is only big enough for one person to pass through. On the other side is a canyon of unknown depth. If you don't hold on tight, others won't be able to help you at all.

When I came down, my heart was hanging, and my hands were tightly clasping every stone crevice. I was as nervous as if I wanted to climb over someone else's wall and steal something. For the first time, I felt scared. It would probably be easier if you packed lightly.

When you have finally climbed over a mountain, but you see that there is still a mountain on the other side of the mountain, please don’t lose or be depressed, because you have worked hard to climb the mountain. Although there is still a mountain on the other side of the mountain, you are already there. You are no longer the same person you once were. Believe in yourself, as long as you move forward, there is no endless road. I was really tired, so I had to use Chicken Soup for the Soul to refuel!

The Zhengbei Tower is currently the largest and most complete watchtower on the Jiankou Great Wall. It is about 1,000 meters above sea level. It is not the highest, but it has the best view. Stand on the top of the building. , with a panoramic view of the entire Great Wall.

In the drizzle, we embarked on the return journey. I arrived in Xinghe County just after eight o'clock. Since it was still early, I suggested taking a trip to Sumu Mountain. Everyone agreed in unison.

When I got out of the car to refuel and move my body, I saw Brother Feng standing there motionless with a band-aid on it. I asked stupidly, "Does it hurt?" Brother Feng said bitterly, "It hurts." , I guess it collapsed. We didn’t expect it to be so serious, so we decided to return quickly for the sake of Brother Feng’s nose.

We gave up on playing, but we couldn’t eat at all. After giving it up, thinking about the fragrant Zhuozishan smoked chicken, I decided to divert to buy chicken first. The deer drove like a wild horse and soon left our car behind, so we had to agree to meet Bai Yanhua. We went to buy chickens and we went to the hotel to wait.

It wasn’t until about three o’clock in the afternoon that they arrived at the hotel. It turned out that they had gone the wrong way and traveled more than 100 kilometers to buy more than 30 chickens. The smoked chicken is about to become a magic chicken. I quickly served Bai Yanhua's famous meat chicken, pork braised with sauerkraut, and laid out a dazzling array of dishes. We exchanged glasses and had a happy Dragon Boat Festival. . After having a full meal, we returned to Wuhai with a car full of laughter and more than 30 smoked chickens that were squeezed into the carriage.

The grandeur of the Great Wall has lasted for thousands of years. You can never understand culture without being there. We have been here, and we have no regrets. We may not have experience, but our experience is enriched through constant exploration.

< p> Maybe we don't have a tacit understanding, but the tacit understanding is refined from constant running-in.

The differences and arguments along the way, to the joy and inevitable arrival in the end will all become the happiness in our hearts that we will never forget!
