Zhangjiajie is the yellow lion of Qingyan Mountain

Zhangjiajie is the yellow lion of Qingyan Mountain

Text/Ma Jiajun

Huangshi Village is the most scenic in Zhangjiajie, and Dayong has a folk song: "Don't climb the Yellow Lion Village, go to Qingyan Mountain." Climb this peak and climb all the way up the stairs, with flowers and flowers, and fallen leaves. Walk through the fir forest trail, cross the Luohan Rock, bid farewell to the deep valley of the forest waves, and climb the rock trough of the pressurized mountain, and ascend to a high platform. At this time, the breeze was gentle, and I looked up to see the rectangular stone slab on another high platform like a treasure box for treasured heavenly books, but the box was opened. It turned out that not far away, on the cliff wall of a hundred meters high hung the scroll of heavenly books. This is really stranger than the soldier book in the Three Gorges.

Suddenly, a skyscraper-like mountain is blocking the way, but a mountain gate at the bottom of the mountain has a narrow steep staircase between the stones leading to the top of the mountain. There are stone pillars outside the mountain gate, as if the great general is watching. The mountain ladder is no less than the Huashan Laojun Plough Ditch, and the height of the stone gap is narrowly raced through the Huangshan Mountain. This is the "South Heavenly Gate" of The Yellow Lion Village, and its dangerous pass is simply a pill mud that can be sealed, and it is many times more dangerous than taishan's South Heavenly Gate! It is said that at the beginning of the liberation, the remnants of the bandits who occupied the Yellow Lion Village could not attack the Yellow Lion Village with just one submachine gun. Later, only because they were besieged and had no food, the bandits killed the leader to surrender the army.

At this time, the weather in the mountains changed suddenly, and suddenly the mist covered the eyes, the smoke and rain drifted, and the mountain road was confused, and it was covered with "poetry", although wet, it was also refreshing. Looking back at the 400-meter-high stone pillar "DingHai God Needle", it seems to be shaking in the sea of fog, as if it had reached the bottom of the sea.

After passing the South Heavenly Gate, I saw a tall stone pillar rising from the ground and straight into the clouds, which was a more veritable Southern Heavenly Pillar than Guilin Duxiu Peak. Between the main lines, on one side is a peak like a vase, and on the other side is a copper wall and iron wall that is 100 meters high and 200 meters long. The smooth, flat and steep mountain wall is spectacular, just like the natural majestic Great Wall. After several twists and turns, it reached the top of the Yellow Lion Village. At this time, the clouds are clear.

Zhangjiajie rarely sees dirt, there is sand and gravel everywhere, and it is strange that on the top of this peak is covered with a layer of yellow soil, like a hyena looking up. The lion's back is planted with cloud tea and also planted with crops. The area is only more than ten acres, and several tea houses and restaurants in the forest farm have become the homes of tourists. Along the first circle of the lion's back, it is expected that Jiantai, Wangfengtai and Wangxiantai will see the infinite scenery of Zhangjiajie. To the north, the valley floor is black, the four walls of the mountain are like knives, the peaks are lined up, and there is an inaccessible primeval forest, and no one can imagine what is inside. In the northwest, there are triangular caves on the mountain wall in the valley, and there are constantly flying clouds escaping. Not far away, a row of peaks like stone pillars, equal in height, and similar in distance, like the piers of bridges that have been demolished, people attach them to the "piers of the overpass". Down the back hill along the newly opened path in the southwest, see the boulders next to the road, climb up to see the deep stream and distant peaks, the mountains or such as the golden phoenix spreading its wings, or like the dragon head, or like the conch out of the water, especially the fog sea golden turtle is the most god-like. The turtle's belly is placed on the top of a dangerous peak, and the turtle's head sticks out in the sea of clouds. We walked down the Yellow Lion Village and looked back, and the boulders that had originally landed were like a pool jumping platform, two-thirds of which were suspended in the deep stream of the sky, and it was chilling to recall. Below, flying clouds pass by the peak, which is really no less dangerous, strange and beautiful than the "longitudinal cloud flying" of the Lushan Immortal Cave.
