The epidemic made me travel and work in vain, just leaving a boring time to meet the warm sun in the spring, and a voice in my heart came up with a head" "Go for a walk.".
"Let's go for a walk" I said this to Wang Xiaomei, she did not reply in her thoughts, I had already packed my backpack and mood. Then go for a walk and drive half an hour to the parking lot of The Diamond Monument. Originally, the Diamond Monument was only the first small destination of today's hiking plan, and it was ready to spend half an hour comparing it with the old street that was abandoned many years ago, so I went light. The parking lot was preparing to go to the ancient town of Kongangbei, when a returning sister told the Diamond Monument that it would not open until ten o'clock. After thanking the sister who kindly reminded us, we were still surprised, the Diamond Monument has a scenic gate? Do you have to open the door at ten o'clock? This is not at all the ruined vajra monument in my memory!
Helpless can only continue to wait, waiting can only take out the mobile phone to see what is taken, at this moment the sun is just right, the dew on the ground is also beautiful, through the macro to see the world under the dew. Accidentally found a small mushroom, together through the camera into the phone, after all, I am a greedy human!
King Kong Monument Ancient Town
Probably waited until 9:40 in the parking lot, thinking that it should be about the same time to walk past, after all, today's weekday plus the staff who expect such a "niche Internet celebrity attraction" will not be too serious about opening the door on time at 10 o'clock. The fact is that the face of the punch is two things, one is that this is not a niche attraction, but a new popular Internet celebrity attraction, a group of uncles and aunts have lined up at the door; the second is that the staff is very "serious" to look at the watch N times, in strict accordance with the rules of opening the door at ten o'clock.
Entering the scenic spot, you will be greeted by the imitation ancient town buildings under construction and the scenic traffic sightseeing vehicle that is waiting for people to "take the bait". For the "wild donkey" I came to on foot many years ago, this is a small dish, along the path, stepping on the spring light, strolling down to a very interesting building. Start to think seriously, The Diamond Monument is now playing so big, who will throw money to sell dreams at this time of economic downturn. Superficial, I quickly stepped in through the side door, "Yes, this building" has begun to scream inside, and there is actually a picture frame-like window frame, decorating the natural scenery. Traditional process, take a photo and punch card.
King Kong Monument Ancient Town
Enter the front yard of the building, see clearly the building named Xiangyangyuan Unit Building, a proper retro literary fan homestay. The style of the old residential building is reflected in the emerald green of the yellow oak trees in spring, which reminds me of the courtyard of my childhood and the youth that I can't go back to. Here, the shattered children's dreams and modern casual design are blended together, and I sigh "it's so good" and take a photo sadly.
The memories go on, and the hangouts go on. Through a path under the eaves of the two walls, drive to a smaller yard, the yard is full of stone sinks, full of fresh and lovely copper money grass, presumably the owner of the yard should love this hydroponic plant, and do not give other species of plants the opportunity to seize its position.
This courtyard is called The Congshan Canteen (1940), and there is also a junior school in Beibei District called Kanshan Middle School, which was built for Mr. Lu Zuofu according to the name of "the poor are alone, and the da is good for the world". The Kansan Canteen has not yet officially opened, but I have already imagined being in the middle of it, beautiful! After ending the imagination, quickly called Wang Xiaomei to take a photo of the copper money grass and the Jianshan canteen.
Continuing along a moss-covered stone-walled path, there is already an interest in exploring, and the surprise has arrived, and a hot spring music hotel appears on the steps in the middle of the mossy stone wall with small flowers, and the quaint stone wall with modern circular cement-based buildings gives people the idea of exploring. Climbing the stairs and stepping into it, the first is an iron staircase that spirals around a tree, where nature meets the beauty of architecture perfectly.
A few steps deeper, an atmospheric and elegant circular cement building surrounds a huge yellow oak tree that covers the entire yard, sublimating the beauty of nature and architecture just encountered, and making people sigh the talent and feelings of the architect. Soak in the hot springs in this setting, listen to music from a live band, and have a few drinks.
A few steps a scene, sighing at the changes of the Diamond Monument, the previously ruined Diamond Monument has new vitality and vitality. The humble little stream has also been created to be fairy, but I still like the pristine stream. But it doesn't matter, all the uncles and aunts have already aimed their long guns and short cannons at it, and it has become a beautiful scenery of the Kongo Monument. The format of the landscape is different, but it does not affect that someone will always appreciate it.
Through the crowded stream on both sides, a wall of large mirrors attracted my attention, and when I approached the mirror, I found that the mystery of this mirror was that the selfie of the mirror could take a picture of the yellow oak tree in the sky behind me. I quickly invited Wang Xiaomei to take a picture together, and by the way, showed me the domestic mobile phone I used to take pictures.
An ancient town always has to have a stone ladder that walks on its legs, and on the stone ladder there are all the life and stories of this ancient town. Some people take up the burden of life on stone ladders, and some people show unique beauty through stone ladders. There are many ways to live, and it is enough to be able to blend in and enjoy and taste happiness.
Go, go, walk past the area where snacks and restaurants gather, although these foods can still arouse my taste buds to a certain extent, but not enough for me to stop and pay for them. I know that there is a yellow oak tree by the river, and it is still there, just like in the past.
There is also a lighthouse by the river, and the lighthouse has always been a symbol of the prosperity of a river. Lighthouses are also very important elements in photography, and with lighthouses it is as if the photograph has light and direction. The King Kong Monument, a lighthouse by the river, has lost its color and role, it has faded all the original work, like a retired excellent worker or living a life in an orderly manner, standing straight in the former post, just in the reading life of the tourist lens to become a background, a background with a story, compared with the bridge he built later.
After crossing a small bridge, the stream under the bridge has been blurred in the artificial smoke, and then up the low stone steps, there is already a view of the ascent, the Jialing River still flows in the direction of the Yangtze River, and the Yangtze River will also flow in the direction of the sea.
The leaves of the yellow oak trees this season are verdant and eye-catching, and it is always difficult not to put it into the camera, of course, one more heroine in the shot is even better.
I turned around in a photo shoot, and the broken window of a renovated broken house behind me attracted me. Squeezing my eyes in through the gap in the window frame, I took a deep breath from the sight inside, the place where I had abandoned the most youth as a child—the classroom.
I was originally a Muna student, and the teacher did not need to remind me too much to study, nor would he notice whether I was serious about studying, anyway, holding no pain and no itch grades, or having or not having days. In fact, I personally still like to return to that single-goal learning career, and the age of ignorance, I always feel that I should be better, and challenge again on those exercises that I can't. Those who have passed away will eventually pass away, and entering this place is only to laugh at the ignorant youth.
Time is like this, running without a trace in a flash, expecting the half-hour trip of the Diamond Monument to be stretched to lunchtime, smelling the smell and finding a hot pot restaurant halfway up the mountain, the spring sun is very precious, although it is still a little hot at noon. We naturally choose an outdoor table where we can see the eaves and the natural green, and many times the dining environment will also add to the taste of the food itself.
To tell the truth, this hot pot restaurant tastes good, the bottom of the pot tastes mellow, the dishes are also fresh, the soup base is salty and light, and with a line of spring light, a meal to eat this portion is enough. Better discovery is better enjoyment.
After eating the hot pot, I felt that the exploration of the Diamond Monument slowly lost interest, and we decided to return to the parking lot. Then drive to an old street, Wang Xiaomei decided to lie on the car to consume food, I decided to go to the old street to walk around and consume food.
Just walked to the old street, I felt the coldness of this old street, because as far as I could see, I was labeled as a buyer by the grocery shopping aunt at the intersection, but unfortunately I was really not their target customer, I was a passerby who came to see their lives.
Then continue to pace up, into the main street, a glance at the whole of this old street, the street opened the door to show the traces of life few people. I wanted to blend in, but their sparse neighborhood was already too familiar with each other, and I, the only outsider who didn't know what to do here, had nowhere to hide. Since this is the case, I am also happy to explore everything about this old street, the houses on the side of the river are narrow and long, and the yellow oak tree at the end is the river view. I naturally appreciate this kind of life built by the river, and the locals have long been accustomed to the luxury of ignoring the spring water of the river. They want to find one or two old neighbors on this old street who can greet each other, or just stare at the old dog lying on the side of the street, or squint in the warm spring sun and the sound of mahjong rubbing in their ears. This is life, and I am a passer-by in their lives.
This old street reminds me of another old street not far away, Baiyangbei, where there is the Zhangfei Ancient Road and the more dilapidated streets and alleys along the river, and the Changsheng Ferry That connects Baiyangbei Old Street with the ancient town of Chengjiang, and the ferry port is still in the river beach where I have repeatedly gone to pick up pebbles. Driving to Changsheng Ferry, the cobbled river beach is more or less moved to the outdoors. The warm spring sun already has a bit of a scorching taste at this moment, just like they grill food with charcoal.
Exit this river beach and hide in the shade of yellow oak trees like an old street with a white sheep's back. Along the Zhang Fei Ancient Road, you can casually find a place where you can sit on the ground next to the cliff and look at the river, boil water for tea and the spring light at this moment. This time must be very slow and shallow, no need to think about anything, everything is superfluous, it is so mouthful of taste for one thing and one thing, enough!
I thought that this was the end of the recent Zhang Fei Ancient Road, Baiyangbei Old Street and Changsheng Ferry, but I didn't want to come with my friends two days apart, and my friends also brought flowers from the motherland, just like the romantic flowers in this spring.
On weekends, the family trip between friends was made up for me, and it was natural that I would come back here as a wild tour guide. I know that the spring light is infinitely good, but it is also very sunny, so the departure time is arranged at 8:30, which is not early or late. As expected, I was the first to arrive at The Immortal Ferry Port, parked as familiarly as I had two days ago, in the shade of the ideal bamboo forest, and walked to the river beach at the Changsheng Ferry Port. You always think that the same place will give you the same scenery, and you didn't think that there was a hazy fog on the surface of the Changsheng Ferry, which had only been here two days ago, ethereal and moving.
Quickly in the WeChat group to inform the small partners on the road of the beauty of this moment. Life is so unpredictable, the fog quickly flows away like running water, only giving me a moment of appreciation when I arrive on time. From the fading trance of the beautiful scenery, I remembered that the important part of today's parent-child activities is to lead the children to pick up pebbles and paint. I quickly picked up my professional equipment from the car, the large woven pockets, and randomly set a few selection points when looking for the river beach: light color, flat, smooth. The process of picking pebbles is to follow the fate, because there are too many pebbles here, so that there will always be a flower eye, but it is good to pick up what you like with the fate.
By the time I picked up the first pebbles and delivered them to the car, my first friend arrived at the parking lot. After a simple joke and greeting between friends, take them to the river beach to start a new search and fate. At this time, I replaced the target pebbles I picked up with stones that can be used as tea saucers and tea pets, the tea tray requirements are suitable size and flat, and the tea pet requirements are the change of color after watering and wetting. Since there are so many pebbles here, such requests are readily available, so I can only ask myself to do subtraction, pick up a piece in my hand and think for a minute and think that it is worth taking home and put it in my pocket.
The time to concentrate passed quickly, the pebbles were picked up enough, the time was almost over, it was time to go to Aries Back Old Street, so I switched scenes with the first friend, and other friends could only miss this play project.
Cross the narrow road and park next to the old Aries back shop where you are going to eat bean blossom rice at noon. This bean blossom restaurant has been eaten before hiking the Zhang Fei Ancient Road, the taste is quite good, the old shop is also covered by dense shade, this scene is always slow time, leisurely taste is very strong.
Just after arriving at another family friend and informing other friends to be careful of the narrow section, the three families began to stroll along the ZhangFei Ancient Road, and their interest in this Linjiang Ancient Road was the wild hot spring in Linjiang, because I had already been there before, but I lost interest in this wild hot spring. But it didn't bother me to lead them to find out, and I enjoyed the friends and the colorful forest trails in the spring light.
There is a waterfall on the Zhang Fei Ancient Road, although the waterfall is small, the artistic conception is still there, and the children also have fun. Don't care about getting your clothes wet, or getting your hair wet, this kind of time is not common, and you have to be more casual and romantic. Parents are not too much to hinder, at this moment the children are playing in our absence of childhood.
Zhang Fei Ancient Road has a courtyard wall covered with moss, we walk on the path outside the courtyard wall, the courtyard inside the courtyard wall is no longer there, only the long courtyard wall is whispering about the past years and glory. Moss seemed to be advising it to keep it as silent as possible, for the stories were too old, and if one day the walls of the courtyard collapsed, it might be the turn of ferns and vines to cover all the past.
Zhang Fei's ancient road has a clear spring, and the ticking sound is naturally sweet. We are yearning for such a spring, but we are more accustomed to conveniently open the tap, this is the way life is, always can not easily live into the yearning look, most of the time in the social life. No matter what else, at least at this moment, you can get close to this rare silence.
Zhang Fei Ancient Road has wild hot springs, and wild hot springs are still very sensible on the side of the Jialing River, just like you want, I am like that. Many people are eager to go, but because of the large number of people, they have lost the tranquility of the hot springs. Just look at it, look at it so good that you don't even bother to take a photo, and turn the camera on the Kashiwa Lian Hotel across the Wild Onsen River, the hotel that dissuades the vast majority of people with the price. I joked that the opposite hotel is five thousand pieces, and the hot springs here are free to soak, and this cheap is not picked up is the way of the atmosphere!
Walking to the wild hot spring, the hungry stomach is also hungry, everyone unanimously and quickly returns to the old bean flower rice shop, and the topic also involves ordering what dishes and eating a few bowls of rice from time to time. There is a feeling that the mood of this trip is very good and the appetite is open. The table is not listed, more leisurely is to borrow the table and chair of the restaurant after the meal to pose a variety of idle postures, with this posture and then chat about a variety of idle topics. Time let it pass away at will, fast or slow, not caring about it, but owning it.
After all, life is still knocking on my window, returning to normal life, thinking about today's spring light. When I got home, I started using the pebbles I picked up today. Put it in the fish pond, the fish are more cheerful; put on the tea cup, the tea is more intense; paint the color, keep the beauty.
The journey of the heart will not end, and the spring light of the Diamond Monument is gently retained with this travelogue.
