Rolling red dust, which place can make the mind temporarily "retreat."

author:Memories of the Eastern Slope

On October 10th, I visited the ancient village of Peitian in Liancheng County, Fujian Province for the first time.

This one, then, tell a small story.

After wandering through the ancient streets and alleys and deep courtyards, I thought of Nanshan Academy, which is a well-known business card of Peitian.

The academy is on the hillside at the end of the village. In front of the academy is the current Peitian Primary School, which is not small in scale and quite bold.

Through the playground, there is a small road next to it, which leads to the academy.

Next to the road, there is a signboard: Nanshan Inn.

Of course, go inside and take a look!

Follow the steps up the stairs and enter the courtyard.

Here is a condescending place, you can bird the whole picture of the ancient village of Peitian.

Behind the yard are mountain peaks, lush trees, flowers and grasses.

From time to time, there is a small squirrel scurrying around, very agile and cute look.

It is very quiet here, and there seems to be a kind of artistic conception of "under the eastern fence of the chrysanthemum, leisurely seeing the South Mountain".

It also seems to have a certain Zen meaning, "the more quiet the cicada forest, the more quiet the birdsong mountain"!

Man and nature, adjusted to the most relaxed, the most comfortable state.

The predecessor of Nanshan Inn is the Nanshan Zen Temple.

The furnishings in the courtyard are very literary and artistic.

Near the gate, there is a sea of tea where guests come in to make tea and chat.

In the middle of the courtyard, there is a larger table, and a few rattan chairs are very distinctive, creating a moody atmosphere.

Guests can sit around here and spend their time at ease.

On one side of the courtyard are two-story rooms, which are also the guest rooms of the inn.

The other side is empty, just overlooking the scenery of the ancient village.

There was only one man in the courtyard who was busy, and when he saw me come in, he called out.

I walked around the yard and walked to the other end and looked at the peaks outside, and the villages.

I was greeted by the hostess. I said that I didn't stay in the shop today, I was going to go to Nanshan Academy, passing by your inn, and I would come in to have a look.

The hostess said it was okay to have some tea and go again.

Surround yourself with a sea of tea, drink tea, and simply talk.

She asked me where I came from? How did you know Peitian?

I talked about my relationship with Liancheng and some of the impressions of visiting the ancient village today.

She may not have thought that I was so "familiar" with Liancheng and Peitian, and seemed to have a lot of insight and culture.

She also opened the conversation box at once, talking about her abandonment of her job in the banking department and coming to Peitian in July this year to take down this inn.

Because she likes to live this life, work is also a part of life, very comfortable, very free.

The venue comprises 8 rooms. Recently, due to the epidemic, there are not many guests. Two guests just checked out today.

She has some very good ideas and ideas, that is, to turn nanshan inn into a "home" that many people can inhabit!

Because people have been tired for survival and development, they all hope to have a wish to embrace nature away from the hustle and bustle. That is to say, you can have a quiet environment of landscape idyllic landscapes and give yourself a holiday.

And nanshan inn, is a paradise-like existence, can let people also really and illusoryly achieve Tao Yuanming-style short-term "retreat"!

To this end, she plans to open a membership card for Nanshan Inn to provide a "retreat" experience for tourists at the end of the world.

Moreover, to provide every member with humane preferential conditions. Members can stay for one month within one year. One-time full, installment full, as long as the reservation is made two or three days in advance. Of course, except for the eleventh long holiday and the Spring Festival.

The annual fee for members is 2,000 yuan, and they can only stay for less than ten days according to the usual room rate.

I added WeChat to the hostess. Her WeChat nickname is Hongdou.

She laughed and joked: You, a foreigner, know Liancheng better than liancheng people.

Hongdou said that the membership system plan is being formulated, and when the copywriting comes out, please help her to turn it off and come up with some ideas.

I had never met her before, and today I had only a brief conversation. Although I added WeChat and knew her nickname and phone number, I didn't know the honorific surname and name.

But it was on this side that she invited someone she had met for the first time to help her come up with a little idea, and there was no second reason for that, only one factor, two words: knowledge.

This confirms the fact from the side that my knowledge reserves for Liancheng in the past few years have played a little role!

After saying goodbye, I walked out of the inn and went all the way to Nanshan Academy.

Behind the new school, the walls of the academy have been broken, and there are many tall trees growing around it.

The doors of the academy are open, and each one has several pairs of trees and murals and the like.

Here, it was once the first academy in Peitian Ancient Village, of course, its predecessor was the Stone Hill Caotang.

The Stone Hill Grass Hall was built by the seventh ancestor to cut wood and cut grass, which is of epoch-making significance to the village. Subsequently, new schools were added, reaching a maximum of seventeen.

Since the opening of the port, it has trained more than 190 talents and 5 students studying abroad.

Today, the academy is gone and withered.

But the new school continued the fire, and the tradition of culture and education was expanded.

The academy was empty, and I took some pictures outside and inside the academy.

Next time if you come here, be sure to ask a "PeitianTong" to explain. Otherwise, all you see is a few dilapidated empty houses.

After coming out of the academy, he turned to the front of Luo Ernu's small shop. She beckoned me into the shop, drank a few more cups of tea, and then began to walk outside the village.

By this time, it was almost five o'clock in the afternoon. The latest shuttle bus from the village to the county seat should be around 5:30.

I returned to the water wheel at the mouth of the village. The huge water mill car kept rolling, the water gurgling, and the shallow chanting was low.

I have always felt that it is an "image" of the ancient village, but what does this image really mean? I don't know.

After all, I had only come this first time, a lot of things, and I was not familiar with it.

I said silently to the water mill and the archway:

Peitian, I will come back again!
