"Those who thrive" head towards Nanshan again

Gao Yupeng

When a person reaches middle age, his mood is like the color of mountains in late autumn, with all the layers of forest dyed, majestic and poignant. I am always busy, like a donkey that cannot be unloaded, spinning in circles around life. When I am tired and need a rest, I want to escape from the city to the mountains, get close to nature, and get a sense of compassion for the unity of nature and man. The place I most want to visit is Huangbaiyuan. I heard it is the Shangri-La in the Qinling Mountains. But she was too far away, and it would take two or three days to make the round trip. The temptation of the mountains and waters could not be fully enjoyed until there was ample time. Keep a thought and give the dull life the wings of fantasy again. Life will still fly freely, and there will be a bright sea and sky in the future.

Happiness sometimes comes too suddenly. In the early morning sleep, the sisters of the Jixiang Detachment of Women were already discussing the matter of attending the Dengjia Wutai. My wife took pity on my body that was worn out by running all night, shook me awake and asked, "The lucky girls are going up the mountain, are you going?" When I heard about mountain climbing, my ears stood up as intelligently as German black in my sleep. I heard that there was a girl who swallowed her seeds like a sweet dream, and said sweetly: "I sign up!" I rolled over and got up, washed my face and brushed my teeth, and got ready to go, as fast as the people gathering in the military camp. The whistle was blown, for fear of missing the time for the team to set off.

The auspicious girls, who work as drivers on weekdays, work hard and are tired of serving. They are brave enough to bear the burden of the family, and rarely get a day off throughout the year. Today, they put aside earning money to support their families, and use their inner thoughts to weave the garland of life, organize mountain climbing trips, and create their own happiness. When we go out with these girls who are not golden birds, they are like magpies and thrushes. They chatter and laugh loudly all the way, showing the outgoing and energetic nature of Xingping ladies. They are drivers. They are all well-informed. They know the way to go and where to eat. They have great ideas and wait for arrangements without being pretentious. They even show their attentiveness in taking care of men. They are really good friends when traveling together. .

Seven or eight years ago, I went to Jiawu Terrace outdoors with my Xingping travel companions. In front of the Jixiang girls, I could not show any ability to know the mountains they had climbed and the roads they had walked. , or have eaten less salt than men. This is my embarrassment and the embarrassment of not being able to show affection around girls. Along the way, famous mountains such as Jianshan Mountain, Wutai Mountain, Cuihua Mountain and Xiangyu Mountain are all fascinating places. It is rainless and gloomy today, and the surrounding fields are filled with smoke. From the Jiawu Terrace at Dayukou, I don’t know how the scenery and charm are different from those in the past.

If you enter from the small valley, you may be able to go around to the beautiful part of the mountainside. If you enter from the big valley, you will encounter a dirt road with broken rocks. After hard work, your legs have not been exercised for a long time. Before entering the mountain gate, an old man bundled dead branches for firewood. Seeing us laughing and walking towards him, he took a step forward and stood in the middle of the road. I stepped forward and said hello: "Uncle, are you leaving Jiawu Terrace from now on?" The old man asked back: "We are passing by now. What should I give this old man?" It sounded a bit like a robbery, so I hurriedly called to Brother Tao who was walking behind: "Come and give me some high-end cigarettes!" The old man took a puff of his cigarette and pointed with satisfaction. The mountain behind them: "Just go from here, don't ask anyone along the way." The girls were still timid and walked all the way. Fortunately, the old man didn't ask for money. If a person asked for five or ten yuan for the land, they would not be able to give away at least ten yuan. Sometimes, it's not a question of money, but a question of mutual respect. A good attitude should be paid for!

After walking a little further, I met a Taoist priest carrying a child on his back and leading his wife. Stepping forward to take a photo, the Taoist priest waved his hand, then took out Xingping's specialty sesame candy and handed it to the child who was holding out his hand, saying goodbye to each other. The auspicious girls are puzzled but interested in Taoist priests marrying wives. Tao Erku said: "Taoist priests can marry wives!" Liu Fenli said: "Living in a poor mountain ravine, living in a den, what about the education of the children?" Gao Yupeng then said: "People pursue spirituality, followed by material things." Yan Jiang Hua said: "Spiritual pursuits also require food and clothing. Which daughter-in-law is willing to marry a poor man." Wang Huirong said: "This is called true love. The relationship between couples who can live in the mountains is enviable." Zhang Jing said: "Love must have a material basis. They can eat and drink whatever they want!" The group of people argued endlessly. The love in the mountains subverted the city people's outlook on the world.

Moisture and negative ions are full of mountain air. The Xiao Sa on the leaves, looking at the wash of rain and dew individually, is both tender and destructive. Autumn is so gluey, harmonious and beautiful, and it declines in an instant. It is the retreat of the peak, the calmness of passion, and the complete withering. The red leaves are the cry of cotinus. Only under the bright sunshine can the spirit be rejuvenated. On days without sunshine, the tragedy can only be tolerated. Humidity and rain can only add to contemplation and memories, but cannot praise the past and show off the medals earned in a lifetime on the branches. The yellow color is the pulse of green leaves, which only whimpers and cries when swept by the autumn wind. Losing the green vitality is a ruthless fate, forcing people to age. The beauty of the past is hard to find again. It is sad to die and return to earth, and it is useless to hold on to it. The remaining green color is the ambition of a strong man to regard death as home, and the brilliance of the setting sun like a rainbow. The three-color mixed leaves cling tightly to the branches with their skinny petioles. This is a shocking separation. How many affectionate words were quietly spoken when bidding farewell. The beauty of nature is like the affection of the world.

To see red leaves, you must have a clear day. You can see all over the mountains and plains, the red ones are like fire, the yellow ones are like gold, and the green ones are like ink.

It's a pity that the mountain is so high that the tops of the beams are not visible, and the wet mist hangs halfway up the mountain. There is no sunlight coming through, and you can only see old trees, black vines, and rough rocks and trickles. There is a Taoist temple with two heavenly gates. After entering the temple gate, the faithful men and women worshiped the gods when they saw them. When the young Taoist priest came out from the side room, intent on burning incense and collecting merits, the ceremony had been completed. The Taoist priest Suiyun said: "If you don't give up the incense money, you won't entertain guests. Please clean up the holy place and don't take pictures of the temple." Yanyan and several migrant workers who were also in the temple chatted for a few words and came up with the idea: "Those who are idle should not be virtuous." Come, the thieves will come, and the Taoists will come. "A strong wind can knock down the grass gate. Fortunately, I fed the guard dog a few donuts, and it reluctantly followed him out of the temple and stayed with me all the way to the top of the mountain. He stayed with me for a long time and became a loyal and loyal climbing partner.

The newly paved gravel road is about to come to an end, and there are impressive pavilions and tiled houses calling in front of it. I thought it was a farmhouse, I thought it was a spacious villa, but when I got closer, it was still a Taoist temple. Climbing up the stairs, there was no answer at the door, and the sound of dogs barking was translated into a poem: "I should pity everyone who steps up to the temple platform, and the big red door has not been opened for a long time. The two families of Buddhism and Taoism cannot be closed, and a kind of mysterious spirit comes." Walking around the temple, you can see yellow robes and black robes drinking together in a wooden pavilion, and the guardian scolding the black dog to stay calm. The temple is so high and the Dharma is so vast, how can we close our doors and shut ourselves up so that we can have a pure call? Counting this place, I encountered three monasteries, all of which have solar-powered electronic chanting machines installed on the roadside. They are shaped like lotus flowers and candlesticks. As long as there is light to send electricity, "Amitabha" can be chanted throughout the day. Sighing husband: Singing Buddha's music in front of the Taoist house makes the young man's face look dull.

There is no shortage of stones in the mountains. It is not easy to build the stairs for climbing. It takes several generations of perseverance to cut the stone and cut the surface. The people in the mountains are kind. They build bridges when they encounter water and pave stones when encountering roads. They do not do it for their own benefit, but for the illusory gods who live on the top of the mountain. Sweat. Climbing up the steps, I thanked the road builders for their merits, but I also felt melancholy and worried because the road was long and arduous, and my clothes were soaked with sweat.

The high steps were really strenuous. My legs and feet felt like they were filled with lead, and my muscles felt like they had acupuncture points. I could only rely on perseverance to overcome the difficulties. We taxi drivers are standard urban poor people. We are not pampered. We also feel that the mountain is too high and the road is too long. It is a tough route. I was so tired, my muscles ached due to my elevation, and my blood and energy couldn't rush to my brain, so I had to wait for a while to calm down. On the contrary, the Jixiang Detachment of Women has a feminine body and a strong mind. In the difficult stage, they do not hold back or complain. They are more able to accept challenges and show calmness and bravery. Just like they drive to support their families, they contain the value of hard work. Spirit.

There is a high platform in the middle of the mountain. There is a straw shed on the terrace of the high platform. To the north of the straw shed, there are farmhouses with people selling snacks. This is a scene on a sunny Sunday. In the past few years, travel enthusiasts rested on the lawn. Playing cards, making tea, chatting, having dinner together, etc., the women are particularly enchanting and the men are lively. Today it is foggy and cold, and there is no one on the mountaintop. The farmers doing business are nowhere to be seen, leaving only wooden cases and benches, and the place is bustling. After reaching this point, most people will spend most of their energy. The higher they go, the more dangerous it becomes, and they will retreat and die. The middle-aged man was frightened by the reality and retreated in fear of difficulties. The middle-aged woman was amazed by the dense mountain air and moved forward happily. From this point of view, it is not romantic at all for women to count money and touch flowers realistically at home. Outside, my will follows the environment, my thoughts fly to the sky lively, and I excitedly accept unknown experiences, as innocently as a little girl reading a fairy tale book.

Just go ahead, we have to protect women, this is an iron law. In fact, women do not need to be protected. They said with a smile: "When the wolf comes, men are too big to run away. They are covered in straw and meat bags. One is enough for a group of wolves to eat." Jiawu Terrace is known as Xiaohua Mountain, which is really reflected in the remaining climb, iron rope We walked two sections of steep steps, climbing cables, cliff planks, standing stones, slits and narrow paths, circuitous mountain tops, cold wind and cold sweat, clusters of shrubs, and bare rocks like houses.

Fortunately, we met a group of strong donkeys outdoors in Zhazha, Xi'an. They were like wind and fire, well-equipped, and descended like tigers. They were shirtless and short-sleeved, and they were handsome and spirited. They encouraged us. You can see from the above: "The sea of ??clouds under our feet, the other side of the mountain." The sacred mountain, the sun rises in the sky, and people are in a fairyland. "Our team Huahua and Jingjing met the young donkey head by chance, and took a group photo with each other to achieve a romantic encounter. Success comes from those who go forward. Wang Mingyue and Wang Mingyue from Xi'an Peihua Women's University climbed to the top and shouted, their childish voices melodious.

Dragon's Back, we saw the Dragon's Back, and climbed onto the Dragon's Back on hands and feet. Our hearts were pounding, our eyes were greedy, and we looked around at the sea of ??clouds like a blanket, the cliffs like walls, the sun shining brightly, and the peaks like floating islands. The mountain originally looked like the back of a fish or the back of an ox. When the mountain gets old, the mountain god becomes a god, or the mountain becomes dangerous, it turns into the shape of a dragon, meandering and swimming, creating the feng shui of the mountain. Jiawu Terrace has a magical atmosphere. It changes the climate, with mist at the foot of the mountain, floating clouds on the mountainside, and sun on the top of the mountain. Five or six temples stand along the way.

The female drivers were reluctant to leave and exclaimed: "This trip is not in vain!"

Sitting cross-legged on the big rocks, accepting the cultivation of nature, meditating away from the city, cutting off the love, Staying with Shanlan, shining with the sun and moon, there will be no more worries. It's hard to let go in the city. If you don't pursue material money, how can you avoid love, hate and sorrow. It was a clear day when we climbed to the top. Although we did not see the red leaves in full bloom, we did see the sea of ??clouds billowing white. Looking around was picturesque, with the peaks looking like brothers and the clouds looking like dresses.

Spending time in Longji and taking photos as souvenirs. When I went down the mountain, my heart felt like an arrow, and my legs hurt when I walked.

About seven o'clock in the evening, I staggered out of the mountain gate. At nine thirty, I returned to Xingping Huaili Carousel Market, dragging my sore legs, and left happily after the dinner.

Xingping’s big and small things, things around the people, Feng Shang Xingping will pay attention to you together
