Encountering Shuanglang’s excellent prose

I once wrote this in an essay: "...with the people you like and the things you like, in the long flowing time, make a pot of tea. You can read, you can practice calligraphy, you can chant Poetry can be used to paint... let the hearts be tied to the tranquility, clinging to each other, spending time and enjoying the sunset..." I have dreamed of such a scene countless times. However, when such a place appeared in front of me. I just want to be alone, sitting quietly, thinking about nothing, doing nothing...

The heart can be relieved if it waits

The silence of waiting, Meet me unexpectedly. The piece of pure land I was waiting for came unexpectedly...

The "encounter" with Shuanglang was an accident and a surprise. "Double Gallery", a beautiful gallery with a very poetic name. Thinking of its name, you have an urge to go there, a desire to see it, and a romantic feeling.

We chose to stay in Shuanglang. It was a temporary decision. It was not in our itinerary. We only wanted to visit it after hearing about it from friends. The romantic Dali is known to everyone as a fairyland on earth. The Double Corridor is something I have never heard of, and something I have never thought of visiting. It is so small that you can see the end of it at a glance, standing quietly in a small town on the east side of Erhai Lake. From Dali Ancient City to Shuanglang, it is almost exactly half a circle around Erhai Lake. Standing on the double corridor, you can see Cangshan Mountain when you look up.

When we arrived at the double corridor, it was already dusk. In the drizzle of summer, whether you like it or not, you will always be accompanied by the clouds and rain that come and go in a hurry. Although, it will cause some trouble for people. However, it will also add some poetry to people.

A small worry was to find a place to stay, so a group of us ran along the streets for most of the night. Finally, we found two small farmhouses next to an inn called "Yuxia". The store is divided into two groups. Xiao and I lived in one house, and Song and other friends lived in another house.

Most of the inns in the town are built on the sea side. The place where Song and the others lived was very quiet and cozy. In the square courtyard, there were fruit trees full of green fruits. In front of the two-story building, there was an open space covered with morning glories. A small vegetable garden is surrounded by a fence. The flowers and vegetables in the garden are picked casually and cooked into a pot of delicious vegetable soup. The earthy fragrance will permeate the whole courtyard. A few more steps down, there is a small terrace, which is designed to be lower than the courtyard. In this way, when the tide is high, the tide of Erhai Lake can rush up to the terrace, which is really unique. On the terrace, there are lounge chairs, bamboo stools, and rattan tea tables... When night falls, sitting on the terrace, the evening breeze blows gently, the fragrance of flowers slowly floats by, and there are traces of barking dogs and people in the small village. Green tile eaves with grass. At this moment, you don’t have to think about anything else, just enjoy the leisurely life... After finding the place to stay, we went to have the first dinner of the trip with peace of mind.

When I went back to the inn after dinner, it was almost midnight. Stepping on the pavement inlaid with bluestones and cobblestones, I was able to enjoy the double corridors under the night. Surrounded by mountains on three sides and facing water on one side, the double corridors, shrouded in hazy rain and mist, are like a paradise surrounded by green mountains, and like a dazzling light set in the clear water and sky. The few flickering neon lights illuminate the porches on both sides of the town, and the faintly visible mottled colors show the passing of time and the charm engraved by time. The secluded alleys and the bluestones whose edges have been worn away by time quietly tell the memories of Shuanglang's past and present lives, as well as the everlasting tranquility...

Shuanglang, who is used to going to bed early, has Falling into a sweet dream, the small shops on the street are basically closed. Xiao and I were walking on the street, always feeling that something was missing and feeling empty inside. At this time, in an inconspicuous corner, there was a small shop with the lights on and the door open. We walked in and saw that the shop was filled with colorful ethnic costumes. You know, what women love most, Just give yourself some beauty. After some trying on clothes and bargaining, at Xiao’s suggestion, I bought a white haori and a flowing long skirt with a red gown, and Xiao bought the green one. Wearing them and admiring each other gave us a secret joy. Thinking, tomorrow, we will wear long skirts and act as women in the double corridor again... Slowly, a feeling of joy came to my heart, and the worries that were just a little bit disappeared like wildfire, and what followed was , is a little bit of poetry and this unexpected tranquility...

If we say, the misty rain of ink and wash in Wuzhen makes me lingering. Then, the leisure and tranquility of this double corridor made me even more confused. I am equally happy and happy about this surprise I encountered in this fleeting time. At this moment, I felt that I should relax and slow down. Let yourself be soft again, bloom again, in the deepest dreamland, go on a date on the double corridor under the morning sun...

If your heart is like a lotus, you will be at peace

Relying on the years The door, pillowing the passage of time, regards every simple encounter as a good fate...

The night on the double corridor passed quietly in the sound of dripping rain. When the light at the end of the day was about to emerge, we were all standing on the street of the town early. Looking from a distance, the town is quiet. It seems that the rain last night did not block the sunshine today. There is a light that is ready to erupt in the morning light.

We walked along the sleepy streets. Along the way, there was no sound of cars, no crowds of people, and even few of the restaurants on the street were open. Even if they were open, they would be empty. There was no intention of recruiting customers to come in for a meal in a hurry. They were preparing their own food, only waiting for the diners to come to the door: "Boss, do you have anything to eat?" The answer was: "We are still working on it, we have to wait a while." "You don't have to stay, the store owner won't let you go, you can go to the next store and look for it." You may be thinking, why don't you greet the guests warmly? They don't force you, just go in if you are willing to wait. Let nature take its course, which may be the way Shuanglang people deal with things. We felt relieved when we saw that they were not vain, impatient, flashy, or irritable.

The most common means of transportation on the streets of the small town is the rickshaw, which is unique, clean and environmentally friendly. During this tourist season, they are still lying there quietly, with no intention of moving. The owner of the car was not seen. We thought, if we wanted to take a car, how would we find the owner? After walking around the car, we saw the contact information on the car: If you want to take a ride to see the scenery of Erhai Lake, please contact Mr. XX... call and find the driver. Take a car. It seems that this phenomenon has never happened in other places, and the driver has already been waiting in the car. Here, you still have to look for him, and you still have to wait for him. That's fine, just come and be at ease, take your time as the situation arises, follow the customs and take your leisure, there is no need to rush.

The architectural layout of the double corridor is like a chessboard, divided into two sides. The middle one is the "Chuhe-Hanjie", with one side facing the sea and the other side leaning against the mountain. On this side of the sea, every few houses have a long and slender alley. If you look carefully from the alley, you can see a line of clean blue. There are many small inns run by farmers in the alleys, which are very unique and full of flavor, especially the inn at the end of the alley facing the sea. Just looking at the name makes me feel romantic, with words such as "spring flowers blooming", "old times" and "clear water". "Bo", "Xiwo Feng'er", "Old Wooden Boat", "Shui Yuntian"... Listening to these, do you still want to leave? Anyway, if possible, I don’t want to... Just like walking alone in an alley, the silence will make time freeze, and the freeze will make your memory travel to the past of the double corridor. If you walk from the entrance of the alley to the end of the alley, you will suddenly find a "paddy field" at the end. In the blink of an eye, you will be given a "bright flower" twists and turns, and you will feel secretly happy in your heart. Needless to say...

Therefore, when you come here, you don't have to rush or worry about anything. Just gaze at the vast mountains and rivers, just sit and wait for the wind and moon to flow... Everything is leisurely and leisurely, just like a The green lotus flowers bloom and close, blooming with natural flower tips, lying peacefully in the tranquility at this time.

The heart is as bright and peaceful as it is far-reaching

Take the long deep blue into my heart. In a corner of my heart, a sea of ??flowers bloomed all over the sky...

Xiao and I wore the long dresses we bought last night, one green and one as bright as a red lotus, and walked leisurely in the early morning. In the wind, bathed in the gentle waves of the morning sun, covered with the glistening dew of the morning, I am preparing to go to the Erhai Lake to wander and be romantic...

Under the clear sky, on the Erhai Lake, a wooden promenade winds. Winding around the shore. Leaning on the railing and looking at the sky, the sky is so vast that it is boundless and the clouds are as light as water. It has become the real "sky". It is so empty that only a piece of solid blue is left, and it is so solid that it is "dropping". At this time, look at the pieces of white clouds, which have drifted into the mountain streams and merged into a Milky Way flowing in the mountains. The rolling mountains have become the embankment of the Milky Way. The white waves are chasing and playing in the mountains, trying to rush to the mountains. My own whiteness and the blue sky... At this moment, I want to bow in the clouds, I want to embrace the blue sky, I want to sink here - leisure. If it were you, would you?

One day, one water, one cloud, one sky. Last night there was still rain and fog, but today it is still brilliant in the mountains, wild waters and water. No wonder people in Shuanglang like to be soft in the sunshine and slow down time for no reason. At this moment, I have been assimilated, not to mention being here all year round. No one can resist the lingering temptation.

I sat quietly by the water, looking at the mirror-like water surface. Even if I was holding a book, I would be stunned and not know whether to turn it over or not. I really don’t want to do anything, I just want to let the sun bathe, let my thoughts spread, and wait for the clouds to curl up, and the sky to be broad and the water to be blue. At this time, I couldn't help but have an undercurrent in my heart - I really want, really want to own a house facing the sea here, sit quietly in front of the court, borrow some time from the future, let the time be leisurely here; let the mood be carefree here Lazy; let your worries melt into the clouds and water...

From now on, hang out with the mountains and rivers, fall in love with the clouds and fields, put aside the tiredness and running in life, and use the softness of the water to melt the sorrow in your heart. Field, in a corner of the heart, blooms with flowers all over the sky...

Because of the tranquility and beauty of the double corridor, many artists live here. There is a small island in the center of Erhai Lake. The island has beautiful and picturesque scenery. The famous dance artist Yang Liping lives on it. The looming white building is hidden by green trees. The blue sky dyes the water of Erhai Lake into blue. This is the true color of water and sky.

I really like the preface written by Yang Liping for "Double Corridors" by Shen Jianhua (one of the artists who lived in Shuanglang): "Actually, coming here does not mean you are isolated from the world, but your impetuous heart must be at peace. You can really do that here. Feel the tranquility of life... A wise person should find a secluded and elegant place to relax and relax. In this way, you will know that simple life is so rich and silent life is so fragrant, and the double corridor is exactly like this A place to go..."

Yes, living in the mundane world is bound to be troubled and entangled, accidents are everywhere, and it is difficult to have peace. It is better to calm down, enjoy the fun, savor the indifference in peace, and be happy.

Gently pick up this pure beauty, carry the years, embrace Jinghao, and walk with Anran.
