Dao • Sichuan (36) 丨 Chaotian: Mountains and rivers show Cave trail dangerous chao tian

In both the Romance of the Three Kingdoms and the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, this story is recorded:

At that time, Wei Shu and Wu divided the world, and Zhuge Liang went out of Qishan to cut down Wei, but in the end, major events were not completed. After his death, Jiang Wei inherited his legacy and launched more than ten Northern Expeditions. In the perennial conquests, the national strength of the Shu state was exhausted by the endless Northern Expedition.

Finally, the State of Wei launched a counter-offensive. Sima Zhao, a powerful minister, summoned Zhong Hui, Deng Aifa Shu, and Jiang Wei to retreat to Baishui Pass, and after deliberation, decided to join forces to guard the Sword Pavilion. When the Sword Gate Was Closed, the 100,000 troops of the Zhong Hui were all stopped outside the Pass, and there was nothing they could do. At this time, Deng Ai proposed to lead a small team over the mountain, secretly interspersed behind the Sword Gate Pass, smuggled through Yinping Pass, and directly approached Fucheng. At that time, the defenders of the Sword Pavilion will inevitably withdraw their troops to aid Fucheng, then the Sword Pavilion can be defeated. If the defenders of the Sword Pavilion did not withdraw, Fucheng was empty and could be easily taken.

Chongqing's Chaotianmen actually has this meaning, but it is the place of worship of the Wenwu hundred officials when the Tianzi enters the river by water, and the Guangyuan Chaotian is by land. One water and one land formed a network of Shu Dao.

Chaotian is located at the key entrance of Qinlong into Shu, is the gateway to Bashu and the starting point of the Jianmen Shu Road. With this alone, Chaotian can become the most important link in the military history of ancient Sichuan. In this regard, transportation is crucial.

Tourists who come to Chaotian, after a short stay in the city, often go to the Mingyue Gorge of about one kilometer. Turn around a long corridor and get a glimpse of the place. This is only a 4A-level scenic spot, not too big, but there are still countless people who come to visit, which is the charm of Mingyue Gorge.

Here two mountains hug a gorge, and the water of the Jialing River rolls eastward. On one side of the canyon, there are two roads, one flat and wide, is the once built National Highway 108, that is, Laochuan-Shaanxi Road, on the cliff wall on the other side, embedded with a long boardwalk corridor, stretching to the depths of the line of sight.

"The Sixteen Jing of the Liubei Sect in Wujiang" (excerpt)

[Tang] Li Bai

Suitable for the clouds to solve, turn over the night lang sad.

Humble wife Mo Evil Sword, and this two dragons follow.

Shame on the king, thousands of miles away from it.

The White Emperor xiao ape broke, and the scalper passed late.

Looking at the Mingyue Gorge in the distance, go west to Yi xiangsi.

Li Bai once poured his verses emotionally into this boardwalk, and the Mingyue Gorge has long been used as a node, the "dividing point" between the Central Plains and Bashu, even if it is not geographically accurate, but it has been so in the hearts of the ancients. For thousands of years, the weight of the portal carried by this road is unimaginable. It is the golden bull ancient road of the past, in the Qin and Shu wars more than a thousand years ago, there was no large-scale excavation tools, there was no suitable way to excavate, there was only one way to create a boardwalk on this cliff. Climb to the top of the cliff first, fix the rope, hang in mid-air, ignite, hit the water, and chisel under their feet, maybe there are endless deep cliffs, maybe rolling waves, but the ancients have no other way but to punch square holes in the cliff wall in this costless and extremely inefficient way, and then wedge the wood into it, based on it, laying wooden planks. Just a small hole will take at least a month to dig out, and for this hole, it may be difficult to count the number of craftsmen who have fallen off the cliff. And at the time of the excavation of the Golden Bull Road, there was more than one Mingyue Gorge, and many difficult places were like this, but the ancient boardwalk shape preserved by the Mingyue Gorge today is more complete, and has become a precious window for modern people to glimpse ancient wars.

Most of the ancient trails in Mingyue Gorge today are already repaired, and the Qinshu Ancient Trail of that year has long been eroded and mutilated in the smoke and rain of history. But that spirit of perseverance is forever solidified on this cliffside. On the 108 National Highway, which was built two thousand years later, countless workers also chiseled stones on the mountain, and used manual force to cut off the cliffs on both sides, and carved out a road from the towering rock cliffs to connect the high-speed passage of Sichuan and Shaanxi.

In addition, there is also a Baocheng Railway on the side of Mingyue Gorge, which together with several roads such as the Jialing River Waterway and the Porter Road, constitute the spectacle of "One Gorge And Several Roads" and become a Chinese transportation museum. The construction process of each of these roads is extremely difficult, and Mingyue Gorge has become a spirit, a spirit of building roads through thorns.

Not far from the Mingyue Gorge, there is a glass cave sky, which people call Xuexi Cave, or the underground Immortal Palace. It is a natural wonder, completely unpolished, but amazingly miraculous. Those upside-down stalactites are like lotus flowers in the sky, and the light in the pool is strange, like a dream.

Humanities are the favor of history for Guangyuan; and ecology is nature's gift to the heavens. It is hard to imagine that in a region that has experienced war and experienced fierce confrontation between man and nature, one day, the dust of those histories will all settle down, leaving only infinite rivers and mountains, so beautiful that people can breathe. Zengjia Mountain and Shuimogou, this is the most magical scene in the depths of Bashan Mountain, the sky is clear, the sun cannot penetrate the layers of dense leaves, the forest boardwalk is pan, and the leaves are full of leaves. Up the edge stack, suddenly a line of sky can be seen, blue like an upside-down sea. The mountains are often cloudy and sunny, and a light rain in Russia plays a symphony among the forests, and the raindrops lively burrow into the forest, float down from the high branches, and fall into the collar of the people, even in summer, can't help but feel a chill. After the rain, climb the mountain, the sky is clear, and the sea is stretched. In the midst of the thunderbolt, a round of sunset is slowly embedded, and the long sky is the largest Shu brocade under the whole world.

The mountains and rivers are beautiful, and the caves are dangerous. The capital of the boardwalk, the paradise of health.

These sixteen words have completely summed up the modern rhythm of the city, but its history is not enough to explain it. How many people have sacrificed their blood and lives one after another on this road into the river, and how many people have stopped drunk in his beautiful scenery. The avenue is facing the sky, which is the grand aspiration of the ancients, and it is also the hope of immortality.

Zhumabei came to drunk the west wind, and how many things were paid for. Xiao Suo was a guest in the world, and the lonely cloud was high and frightened. Look up and drink, flying rock print pupils. Suddenly remembering, the ancient way was once known for iron blood, and it was not the same as the present. In the past years, life and death sighed, and long roared into the void.

Shuzhong. When Qin Guan came here, he should be frightened and hide his tracks. The cliffs roared, and the white dragon leaped into the sky. It was so dangerous that he remembered the princes. The heart is the heaviest, the sages praise the ingenuity, and the country is a dream. Emperor Xuanzong wept, a few points for the people's livelihood.
