Spring outing to Jiawu Terrace

At the end of the Lantern Festival, the beautiful sea of ??clouds appeared in Nanshan and I had no time to see it. It rained yesterday and I thought there would be a sea of ??clouds, so I wanted to see it.

The car entered the Huanshan Road and looked at the floating clouds on the top of the mountain, guessing whether it was a sea of ??clouds. When entering the Baidao Valley, there was a red stone monument with "Jiawu Terrace" on the left and a stone with "Xiaohua Mountain" on the right. The road was muddy and beside the road The branches on the bank of the ditch began to sprout buds. Not far away, I saw a stream flowing, crystal clear and cool to the touch with my hands.

After passing Taibai Temple and Tongling Temple, the snow on the road became thicker and thicker. It snowed on the mountain two days ago. When we arrived at Shengquan Temple, water gurgled from the reservoir next to it. The spring water was used for cultivation. People and tourists passing by drink. The stone steps next to the temple lead directly to the mountain. The stone steps are covered with snow. There are footprints of people walking in front of them. Climb up the stone steps and climb to the thatched pergola. This is Tongshan meets Yikou, with Manjusri's hut above it. Climb along the winding mountain road to Nantianmen. There is an iron chain hanging next to the dozens of meters of climbing ladder. The flat road next to it leads directly to the mountain. Avoid the flat road. Step on the stone ladder to grab the chain and open the wooden door. After entering, it suddenly became clear that the small hall next to it was dedicated to Ksitigarbha. Standing in the open space and looking out, the mountains were covered with silver. After passing the Nantianmen, we arrived at the Huguo Temple not far away. The Jialan Hall in the temple was silent. The huge cliff stone above was cut in half like a knife. Legend has it that this was where Guan Yu broke the stone while practicing his sword. The small temple above the stone is dedicated to Emperor Guan.

A hundred meters away from the Guandi Temple, a stone shaped like the character "Hui" stands tall in the mountain. A few dozen meters in front of the "Hui" stone, there are climbing steps leading directly to the mountain. An iron chain leads directly to the stone arch gate. Hold the iron chain with your hands. Walking up the stone steps, there is a steep cliff. People would not dare to go up without iron chains, and they would fall down and be broken into pieces. Therefore, it is named "Xiaohua Mountain". It is easy to see the danger after passing through the arch cave. It is flat and cheerful, and the Xingqing Temple next to it is silent. , stepping on the neatly paved stone road to the dragon's back of Jiawu Terrace, the ridge of the mountain is as sharp as a knife and an ax, as smooth as the belly of a big whale, and the trees on the cliff are frozen by snow and ice like silver popsicles, shining with white light. . Standing on Longji and looking around, the mountains are covered with dry yellow and brown trees dotted with white snow. The blue waves under the mountain are like mirrors, and the dam is the Dayu Reservoir. The road at the foot of the mountain stretches like silver, and there is snow in the west. The clouds on Washan Mountain are floating and slowly drifting away, and the sky is blue. In the distance, the huge rock of Longtou towers up to the top of the mountain, and the auspicious clouds are floating. The road from Longbei to Longtou is covered with deep snow. I accidentally get snow into my shoes, so I crawl cautiously. Climb the branch to move forward. The huge cliff in front looks like a dragon's head. Next to it is a white jade pagoda with Buddha's music playing. Standing next to the dragon's head cliff, there are steep cliffs on three sides. On the opposite side of the Guanyin Cave, two dogs barked at people when they saw someone. In the distance, there are mountains. Zhang, clouds are floating on the top of the mountain. The human-shaped boulders of Xueva Mountain on the opposite side are straight into the top of the mountain, standing majestic. The clouds on the mountain top in the distance are billowing, like a magnificent ink landscape painting. At this beautiful scenery, I can't help but clasp my hands and whistle. After hearing the sound, the dog on the opposite side barked even more fiercely. The cat there also ran to the faucet and meowed at the person, as if he was hungry and fed him some dried fruits. The cat seemed to be happily scratching his head. People laugh.

I wanted to see the sea of ??clouds this time, but unfortunately I didn’t show up. The weather was clear and the sun was shining brightly. Although the mountains were covered with snow, there was no chill at all, so I went down the mountain. I hadn’t seen the Dayu River for a long time and arrived at the Manjusri Hut. Yakou walked down Dayu Mountain. I hiked this part of the way last year. The trail was winding and winding, and it was more difficult than the road to Baidaoyu. There were fewer people on this road, and there were cat footprints on the snow on the path above. There is no snow below and the mud road has melted. I walk with a stick. The soil on the road is soft and sometimes there are stones. Halfway down the mountain, I hear the sound of a stream. I run over to wash it. The mountains are quiet and the woods are quiet. I only hear the gurgling water all the way. Gurgling sound. Walk through the houses along the stream path, and then return to the Dayu River after crossing the Iron Banqiao. The sound of the river under the bridge is like the sound of drums.

After crossing the Iron Banqiao, you reach the road. After walking for a few miles, we almost reached the reservoir. The sound of the river was roaring. The water hit the rocks and splashed with waves. The water rotated and the rocks rolled away like white clouds. I couldn't help but stare at the "clear spring stone upstream" and couldn't bear to leave. .

When we walked to the reservoir, we saw that the silt at the bottom of the ditch was exposed from the ground. The reservoir was still blue, and the water was not as deep and wide as when last summer came. The gray-white wall marks left by the low tide were clearly visible on the edge of the ditch. The apricots on the ditch bank were The flowers are blooming, and so are the peach blossoms, which are blooming brilliantly.

Looking back at the top of the mountain, I can’t remember whether it’s the stone from the Jiawu Platform, the Nantian Gate or the Dragon Head. It’s as hazy as the huge stone at Qinggeng Peak where Nuwa was helpless to mend the sky at the beginning of "A Dream of Red Mansions"...
