What are the original and translated versions of Diary of a Journey to Yunnan?

Original: Go back to Guizhou and enter Yunnan, and have a high pillow for one night. As soon as the fire started, the master said, "It's 20 miles from here to the Huangni River. It is impossible to cross the river when the water rises, and you need to wait less. " The Beggars' Sect has no place to live on the east bank of the river, and the people who left first are waiting. I'm afraid to go back and forth when I see that the rain hasn't finished. I just swept the floor and wiped the boards a few times. I sat in the open air. When it was cold, I got wet with Yi women. Covered with thatch, the eastern half is livestock and horses, and the western half is a donation from the owner. Wet wages were simmered on the spot before the couch, thinking that it was a fire pond in Yunnan, only a few places in the north, only a fire away from its couch. You can lie down at night and hide by the fire at night. Although the rain stopped, the eaves were low and the outside was muddy, so it was impossible to distinguish the mountains at once.

On the second day of New Year's Day, it still rained heavily. The host said: "The higher it goes today, the harder it is to cross the boat. Tomorrow is a street, a market in Guizhou, a street in Yunnan and a market in Guangxi. There are many people waiting for the ferry, and the boat is coming. That is, I also travel with you. " I'm going to follow it again If you sit like yesterday, simmer porridge on the fire and drink three mouthfuls a day, and your intestines will be wet. At noon, the rain stopped a little. Suddenly I heard the cry of Xiling, and all the people in the village responded. When asked, the jackal came to bear the sheep. Fortunately, the rescuer was injured and did not die. In broad daylight, fierce beasts are in power, and the rest of the night, I am lucky and fearless, and I can forget the spirit of heaven and earth!

Suddenly I saw a hole facing east on the cliff, and I climbed up. It's rough. After walking half a mile, the soil is not cut enough, so we have to climb the grass roots. Grassroots are blameless, but fortunately stones; However, the stone is not strong, it will fall if you practice it, and it will fall if you climb it. If you get a little sticky, you can't move a step. If you want to go up, you can't help yourself. You've never experienced more dangers in your life. For a long time, I tried to get the indestructible stone with both hands and feet, then one hand moved in the air, one foot moved in the air, and the other hand moved in the air. Fortunately, the stone will not fall; I fell limply, and for a long time, I was lucky to get up.

Translation:

In the year of Wuyin (the eleventh year of Chongzhen 1638), it rained all night on the first day of September. Get up and look at the mountain at the junction of Yunnan and Guizhou provinces, and go out of the gorge. [Bitong is at the foot of the mountain in the southwest of the canyon, and the mountain in the north is a red Banqiao, which belongs to the boundary of Guizhou Province. I left Guizhou Province and entered Yunnan Province, where I slept peacefully all night. While he was cooking in the fireplace, the host said, "It is twenty miles away from the Huangni River. As soon as the river rises, the boat can't cross it. You must wait for a while. " Because no one lives on the east bank of Huangni River, people who go to the river first have to return here to wait.

Seeing that the rain didn't stop, I was afraid to go back and forth, so I cleaned a small place in the humble hut, wiped the board and sat as a small table. When it's cold, I burn wet firewood with Yi women near the fire pit. In this thatched cottage, horses are raised in the east and the owner's bed in the west. There is a fire pit buried in front of the bed, which is used to barbecue wet firewood. To the north of the fire pit is the place where I put my small table, which is separated from the master's bed by a fire pit. Sleep in thatch at night and sit on a small table next to the fireplace during the day. Sometimes the rain stops, but the eaves are low and the door is muddy, so you can't see the mountains clearly when you look up.

It rained all night on the second day of New Year's Day. The host said: "Today, the river has risen even higher, and ships are even more sad about the river. Tomorrow is Jiezi, which is called "Chang" in Guizhou Province, "Jiezi" in Yunnan Province and "Market" in Guangxi Province. There are so many people waiting for the ferry to cross the river that the ferry has to cross the river. I will go with you then. " I have no choice but to listen to it again. Sitting in the house like yesterday, cooking porridge on the fire, three meals a day, can moisten the withered stomach. At noon that day, the rain gradually stopped.

Suddenly I heard shouts from the west mountain. All the men, women and children in the stockade rushed over in response to the shouts in the distance. I didn't know it was the jackal who came to drag the sheep until I asked. Fortunately, it was saved in time, and the sheep was injured but not dead. At noon in broad daylight, there are wild animals on the road. I walked in the overgrown place all night, but fortunately I was not scared. How can I forget the blessings of the gods and the earth?

Suddenly, I found a cave with its mouth facing east on the cliffs, and I climbed up with my head up. The top of the cliff is very steep. After climbing for half a mile, the earth cliff was too steep to rest, so I grabbed the grass roots and climbed up. After a while, the grass roots couldn't help me, but fortunately I came to the cliff area; But the stone is not strong, it will fall off if you step on it, and it will fall off if you scratch it. Occasionally, I can find a slightly solid stone. When my feet are tight, my fingers are caught, just like sticking to a cliff, and I can't move a step. I want to go up without assistance and there is no place to go down. This is the most dangerous situation I have ever experienced in my life.

After a long time, I first tried to find a solid stone around my hands and feet, and then I moved one hand and another foot in the air. After firmly grasping one hand and one foot, I moved the other hand and the other foot in the air. Fortunately, the stone didn't fall. I fell limply for a long time, but I got up.

Yunnan, now Yunnan Province, has lakes and Dianchi Lake, so it is called "Yunnan". Travel Notes of Yunnan is the most written travel notes so far, with a wide range of contents, involving scenic figures and folk customs in Yunnan, and detailed textual research. It is an important material for studying Yunnan's tourism resources and folk culture today.

Travel Notes of Yunnan is the most abundant part of Xu Xiake's works, which describes the scenery, mountains, rivers, specialties and folk customs of Yunnan in the most detailed way. Travel notes can be divided into several sections: Dianchi Lake, Bijiashan, Yandong and Panjiang are the key points in the east and southeast, and there is also a special exam on Panjiang. In the middle of China, Dianchi Lake is still the axis of its water system mountains. The west and northwest are centered on Erhai Lake, Diancang Mountain (also known as Cangshan Mountain) and Jizu Mountain, and extend to Lijiang and Jiefang Forest in the northwest.

After the travel notes, there are Notes on Jishan and Notes on Jishan I and II, which list the landscapes of Jishan one by one, all of which are well written. Later, there were two articles: A Brief Introduction to Lijiang and The Origin of the French King.

Finally, it is particularly worth mentioning "Tracing the River to Jiyuan". After careful investigation and bold speculation, Xu Xiake mainly analyzed the origin and basin situation of the two largest rivers in China, the Yangtze River and the Yellow River. At the same time, its water system has been investigated and explained in detail, which has clarified all kinds of misunderstandings and rumors before, and has quite high scientific value.
