At the age of 30, I took 10 people to visit Mount Tai at night, chasing the light like an insect.

# Youth Memories Killing # In some cases, the phototaxis of human beings is no less than that of insects. Climbing Mount Tai at night is to follow the light all the way!

It was dark around the mountain road that day. Dark cliffs on both sides. Walking on the way to climb the mountain, we feel very gloomy and horrible, as if there are countless behemoths staring at us.

"Lights!" Suddenly someone cried out in surprise. Sure enough, in front of us, on the top of the dark and high mountain, a starlight suddenly appeared, obviously extinguished, but flashing, much like an erratic jack-o'-lantern in a cemetery. We soon concluded that it must be Jade Emperor Peak, the peak of Mount Tai.

In order to see the sunrise and the sea of clouds, ten of us left Jinan by train at 8: 30 in the evening and arrived at Tai 'an Station at 10: 00. Out of the station, with the crowd came to the foot of Mount Tai, then about half past ten. Everything is natural. Seeing someone buying bamboo sticks for mountain climbing, I feel prepared and want one. Climbing the mountain at night, everything is shrouded in darkness and visibility is poor. Fortunately, it didn't take long for a full moon to rise and all the splendor was scattered in the mountains, but I still couldn't see the inscriptions and poems of the poets who migrated in previous dynasties, such as the "cliff" and "stone carving" marked on the tourist map, which also saved a lot of lingering. I said to myself, I'll watch it on the way back.

I don't know how many hours I have walked, but I feel that there are more and more tourists. Going uphill and downhill in the dark, going up and down the steps, I don't know when I can reach Zhongtianmen and Nantianmen, let alone the top of the mountain. I just felt my legs were heavy and my feet were sore, and then there was a light ... someone looked at his watch and it was only after one o'clock in the morning.

At this time, everyone came to the energy and rushed to the light together. I don't know. I've been walking for a long time, but I have no light. Just as I was wondering, a few star-like lights appeared at the corner, as if waving to people, and a group of people began to catch up. After chasing for an hour, the light was gone again. I don't know how many times I chased it and how many times I was disappointed. Anyway, I chased it or not, and I didn't chase it. I was at a loss and finally reached a worse door.

At this time, the worse gate is already crowded, crowded and struggling. I heard from the news media afterwards that there were170,000 tourists that night. After some climbing, when we reached the top of the mountain, it was already past four in the morning. Mount Tai is extremely high, the sea of clouds fluctuates, and tourists are woven, which is spectacular. The wind is tearing people's clothes, and the clouds are wiping everyone's cheeks. Finally, I chose a hillside to wait for the sunrise. I didn't want anyone to shout: the direction is wrong, so people immediately flocked to choose another place. Cold, hunger and fatigue came together, and we kept warm back to back, gritted our teeth and persisted.

At about six o'clock, the sun finally came out and cheers rang out from the mountain. However, in my opinion, the sun may be beautiful or gaunt; Maybe brilliant, maybe ordinary. Looking at the cheering crowd, the usual frustration suddenly welled up in my heart. I asked myself, is it silly to work hard all night for this?

Are we people like Kuafu in ancient mythology? Kuafu arrived at the estuary day by day, dying of thirst, and threw a stick into Denglin ... We were tired day by day, but we didn't die. If we throw the bamboo stick in our hand on the top of the mountain, will it become a slender bamboo?

Anyway, it is 1986. I was thirty years old.

It is true that we also have the habit of insects-phototaxis. Looking back on the 30-year life course, we once died of innocence, love, sincerity and sincerity for our cause, stumbling all the way, scarred all the way, like climbing Mount Tai at night, excited for a while and depressed for a while; A moment of joy, a moment of hesitation. On the journey, because of too many twists and turns and too much pain, I had a moment of hesitation and doubt, but I stumbled to the end after all. Thinking about yourself, looking for light all the way, winding all the way, it feels like climbing Daizong at night. Life in the future, ups and downs, is really unspeakable.

Kuafu-You were a seven-foot man in ancient times. I really doubt what crutches you really used in your hand, but your bones have turned into a hill, which is very enviable.

I know the road ahead will still be rough. I want to devote myself to life, and I don't want to frame it with anything. No matter what hardships and resentment I encounter, I will follow the example of Kuafu's greatness and perseverance and worship Kuafu's feat of throwing sticks in the forest and building mountains with pride. ...

Therefore, with confidence and inspiration, the thinking can be smooth, filled, the inside story of life can be discovered, and the beauty of life can be dedicated, staying up all night, burning candles and writing incessantly. ...

I cherish the experience of climbing Mount Tai at night and will never forget our precious spirit of seeking light. ...
