Prose about a trip to Fengpoling

一

On the morning of November 5, 2017, our family, A Xin’s family, and A Ping’s family went to Fengpoling to enjoy the red leaves.

Where does Fengpoling live? When was the tourist attraction mountain opened? With these two questions, I asked Du Niang, and Du Niang said: Fengpoling is located in the northwest of Huangshandian Village, Zhoukoudian Town, Fangshan District, southwest of Beijing, adjacent to Yuxu Palace in Baojin Mountain, Beijing. Starting in 2009, a 6,000-meter-long mountain road was built from a barren mountain. The materials are all made of local rocks, and the sand and cement are carried entirely manually to the mountain. It can be said that it took a lot of hardships to create the mountain roads that people can climb today.

Everyone on the bus said that this mountain might be easy to climb because the altitude is not high, only 600 meters. No matter how easy it is to climb or not, once you get there, you must reach the top.

Along the way, I imagined the brilliant red leaves all over the mountain, imagined the excitement of climbing to the top, and imagined whether there would be any adventures. In my wild imagination, we arrived unknowingly. Pofengling parking lot. We parked the car, everyone carried some food and drinks, and started waiting for the free shuttle bus.

The shuttle bus can ferry people to their destination, but if the heart is stranded somewhere, who can come to ferry the heart to the beautiful spring, bright flowers, mountains and rivers? Qingshuixiu is the ideal shore of the heart. Haha, it’s too far off topic. Seeing that the shuttle bus is coming, it’s better to get on the shuttle bus and go to Fengpoling.

Arriving at the foot of Pofengling, there are three fairy-tale buildings on the left and right sides made of golden corn as walls, brown-red sorghum ears as roofs, and red chili peppers as decorations. house. They are made of stone steps, with orderly heights. Before entering, this house with a strong pastoral atmosphere has already attracted tourists, and people took pictures here.

Looking up, three big red characters of Pofengling were hanging in front of the stone wall. We climbed up the steps, gave the staff tickets, and started to officially climb the peak.

　二

Unexpectedly, the wide corridor inside is made of golden corn as the wall, and strings of chili peppers are hung on the wall as decoration. Yellow corn brings warmth, and red pepper brings joy. When we walked out of the corridor, we smelled the aroma of tofu. It turned out that it came from the tofu factory. In the tofu shop, there is a small hand-operated stone mill for children to grind beans. The children put the beans in the small holes of the stone mill and shook them vigorously with their hands, and the white slurry was ground out. There are also stone mills and little donkeys grinding mills, which suddenly bring people into the old times. Children of our generation have never seen these objects and species in our old days. From this we can see the progress of society, the improvement of living conditions, and also how much convenience powerful science and technology has brought to our lives.

Above the tofu shop is a place convenient for people to eat and drink. There are a few simple wooden tables and benches under the open air. When eating and drinking under such simple and natural conditions, you can completely be informal, otherwise it will appear to be deliberately artificial. But we can’t litter, and we must be civilized and hygienic good tourists wherever we go. Eating and drinking in such an environment, I don’t know who else besides me aroused nostalgic feelings about this scene. Around 30 years ago, how many people of our generation did not have breakfast in such a situation. Nowadays, with the changes of the times, open-air food stalls have disappeared without knowing when, and those who have kept pace with the times have moved into houses that are warm in winter and cool in summer.

Going further up, you can see horses, dragons and other works of art made from real objects such as rice or sorghum. Especially the large pumpkin carved and colored from mountain rocks is so lifelike. I really want to take a photo in front of the horse-drawn carriage made of rice. But there are always people going, so I have no choice but to sit on the carved pumpkin stone and leave an image of my visit.

When I saw the carriage, I remembered the only time I rode a carriage when I was a child. It was when I went to visit relatives with my grandma. The carriage was extremely slow. Because the dirt road was uneven and bumpy, I was very nervous along the way. Never rode in a carriage again. But when I saw such a carriage, I just wanted to take a picture, and had no idea of ??riding in a real carriage. Maybe it was because I was frightened by the experience of riding a carriage when I was a child, maybe because there are more advanced means of transportation, maybe because I am keeping pace with the times. concept in mind.

Hurry up and go up the mountain. Looking back, I saw the ground full of corn cobs and corn kernels, for the children to roll, crawl, or voluntarily peel the corn kernels from the corn cobs. When I was a child, during the autumn harvest, my grandmother and I peeled and rubbed corn cobs one by one, peeling off the white skin on each corn cob, and then rubbing every corn kernel off each corn cob. At that time, I really looked forward to peeling the corn cobs and grinding them into pellets, so that I could play with peace of mind. Looking at today's children, being in it is just a game. Labor with tasks makes people tired and tired, while labor in free games makes people relaxed and happy. This is Hanmei's true experience and feeling.

Under Ah Xin’s call to climb the mountain quickly, Hanmei stopped looking at the children playing with corn and began to pay attention to the scenery going up the mountain.

On both sides of the mountain road, trees lined up to welcome us, but the color of the leaves was not ideal. The leaves on some trees have fallen away and there are not many leaves left. Although some trees still have yellow and red leaves clinging to the branches, they are like the middle-aged lady. Although she has some charm, she lacks the moistness of color.

Occasionally, there are still one or a few trees that are eye-catching, either green, red, yellow, or three colors, showing their style in front of the bare trees. In my opinion, the bare trees, in front of the few trees that still retain their grace, still retain their beauty, just like a painter's blank space.

With the mutual encouragement of you and me, no one of us fell behind. We only took a short rest and climbed to the top of the mountain in one go.

Standing on the top of the mountain and staring at the two opposite mountains, one is bright and the other is hazy in the shadow of the sun and the mist on the top of the mountain. He was as bright as an upright man, showing everything about him without any secret. The hazy mountain looks like a shy young woman, covered with a thin layer of silk gauze, wanting people to guess her thoughts. It seems that Hanmei's character is only suitable for being a great husband, not a person with many worries in his heart. The man who is Hanmei's husband is very lucky. Hanmei has always been straight-forward, which saves him a lot of time to guess and think about the mountains and rivers in Hanmei's heart.

Find a place to sit down for lunch and replenish energy. After eating and drinking, we took a short rest and started going down the mountain.

When we were going down the mountain, while asking my husband to take a photo of me, we got separated from everyone. Another way down the mountain my husband and I took. There are trembling wooden bridges on this mountain road, green bamboo forests, wooden houses with lanterns and wooden swings. What makes me happiest is that I swing on the swing. When swinging high on the swing, I feel like I am a 7 or 8-year-old girl. Don't laugh at me, I was really like a little girl in that mood at that time. It turns out that what makes people age is their appearance, but sometimes the heart suddenly becomes young and lively in front of certain things or scenes.

After walking out of the scenic area, I saw the sign advertising the scenic area which read: The golden autumn is intoxicating and beautiful in the Lanshan Mountains, and the red leaves are dyed in the hills and mountains. Because we came to the scenic spot late this autumn, we didn't get to see the beautiful scenery as the billboard said, but we still didn't complain about the winter plum. Because there is still a harvest scenery in Hanmei's eyes, and let the scenery in my eyes shine in my space tonight like stars of words, forever becoming a fleeting memory.
