A simple sand road leads us to this ancient village. Entrance to the village, had been stripping paint the "big I Bay Folk Village" metal rack door is still visible, is also the central koup the unique identifier.
Village, rows of stone cornices of the houses, that is, showing a naturally different identities. Here, 40 kilometers away from the Wuhan city, is an area under the jurisdiction of Huangpi research sub-Gang. The villagers told me that old house walls that 'rain silk wall' is the past, a very elegant building. Dayu Wan Nian Geng geometry? One is Hongwu years.
I went into the Big Bay, 61, I pass I glaze at home, he and the east wing houses a carved mahogany bed with wide quite convincing. It is said the old man, this bed with the house at the same time to do. House into a bed is good, and then not moving too. This bed, such as houses, all surrounded by sculpture. Looked thin, bed of flowers Mei hollow figure was actually among the Ming Dynasty official mandarin. Colleagues pointed out that, old man very pleased with: "Hello know what's what, this is my ancestors left something!" Bed on both sides, carved dragon, the elderly, said, This is called Shuanglongxizhu. He forced patted these carvings to us: "pretty strong for hundreds of years, not a bad point." House high enough to have 34 meters. The courtyard has two connected, the owner said that floor Xiu, and the above did not occupied. Main room the middle of them the incense table, next to the straight-backed chair, as well as a washstand, though dilapidated, are all mahogany. The elderly, said sigh Unfortunately, a lot of smashing the Cultural Revolution. Look at the big houses and antique interpretation of a few hundred years, when a wealthy family must be. I asked: "You should be a county-level cadres, ancestors, right?" He shook his head. Peer, said: "Oh, at least to the provincial Law!" Old laugh, and we burst out laughing.
Tai Yu Wan 100, houses are built on mountains. Despite the large number of old house old, still showing momentum of previous years. There are a number of old house Yanxia murals, like the photograph of the emperor back plow, hand pull cattle painting, large enough to support more than the origin of the Hongwu Bay. In this quiet picturesque small village, people also use the left Plowshare ancestors sleep in marriage ancestors carved large bed, sitting straight-backed chair grandfather's grandfather sat in my grandmother's grandmother had Tongpen the washbasin shelf rack on the face ...... everything is so old, yet unmistakably reached today.
In the rush to get rich rural boom, the big I Wan seems to be above worldly considerations. Ancestral village, the plot flowing rhymes, and we have not found a bucket of small foreign hug rich rule the roost. In accordance with "in accordance with World Bank officials, following 13 generations, loyalty, family five hundred years," survival of the great ancient people over Bay has been regarded as a high of culture. According to research sub-Gang leaders said there has not been here for decades any criminal case, experts and scholars have a more than 70. We visited the old glaze I pass his wife is a teacher, is the nephew yuan 9 Huangpi current vice mayor in charge of education. "I wonder if there Han, Wei and Jin Ho", in this little integration with the times, full account of all the ancestors preserved to this day, be called Utopia of the Ming dynasty villages, everything is real old. If the villagers from the house appears in wide-sleeved gown, the time immediately back 500 years. Unfortunately, the years such as the Tao, here too, after all, had broken. We have so many people to Diuqian fake antique hook, right is right is not the true monuments of the date, which in the end is how it happened!
