Shen Cong-wen in the former residence of the ancient city of Phoenix, I bought one of Mr. "from the text of his autobiography," On the return trip the train turn reading, as if they walked into the Phoenix and into Shen-wen, his past, his childhood, his thoughts and thought, as he thought he was a general Natiao clear river. "Although this is only an outline, but where all the scenarios, but floating raised, it seems to touch their hands to touch." - His memories of his past that town, while I write today's Phoenix, a strange passers-by to the small town feeling: hazy Tuo, Boasting; the river, the boat and Linjiang of Diaojiaolou; the tower on the ancient city of Reaumuria Shi Lei, quartzite-paved lanes and the Miao batik clothing; with a number of depression , with some sentimental Shen Cong-wen's former residence, gravestone ... ...

I thought, until today, Phoenix is still a "Border Town", a remote western Hunan, Guizhou, next to a small town.
Shen Cong-wen said in his book: "A good man, from a century ago, some older maps up to find that, while in Guizhou, eastern Sichuan, western Hunan an extremely remote corners, the discovery of a called 'the town of pole' a small point. "
This small point is that today's town of Phoenix Tuojiang!
Today, the town of Jian Yuqing Kangxi reign of about two kilometers of the ancient city wall has collapsed, the original old city is also only 4 Gate "brisk," North Gate "Bi-hui"; while the South Gate "quiet Lan" and Simon " fucheng "has long been hollow. Walking on the walls is expected to clear Tuo, walls inside and outside the residential areas and quartzite paved street alley.
Our run-length and the walls from the vertical one, but 100 meters of the alley Man Star Street began. Here the sun has a quite charm and a very well-known Palace of the Republic's first Prime Minister of Xiong Xiling's home.
We first came to the sun palace. Chaoyang Palace, also known as Chen Ancestral Hall, built in the Republic of four years, on both sides of the street vermilion gate, embedded a beautiful landscape relief. Entry, a row of low pressure in the head beam through the beam to slate paved courtyard, turn around and discovered, is a delicate beams of the ancient stage, we are all entered into the sunrise from the bottom of the stage Palace . Phoenix people are like the theater, the tour guide said that in 1982, 80-year-old Shen Cong-wen back to Phoenix, the specialized court here watched a Nuo drama, watching could not help but burst into tears watching on. Urchin like to see when you play, curious, he 15-year-old left his hometown, until the 80-year-old was once again see the home theater, then how strong emotions that the ah!
I do not know Shen Wen-tang look into that Nuo opera is staged here, the last race, but now, here, has already turned into "Phoenix House Painting and Calligraphy," Jing De rarely tourists. The front courtyard of the temple at the top of a 3, Phoenix hung quite well known painter Mr. Huang Yongyu inscribed, "Phoenix Art House" before. To leave the Chaoyang Palace, Man Sing Street along the far north, a short-Lane end of single detached homes, is the Republic's first Prime Minister Xiong Xiling's home. Black tiles wooden doors, one side the small courtyard, followed by three low-ceilinged building, several plasterers are mix with cement for the repair of his house.

A Man Star Street, along the Tuojiang the eastbound side of the ancient city walls less than 100 meters, we came to the north gate. North entrance is the Tuojiang Tigers Beach, beach with a stone Dunzi interval of 4,5 m away, put a few among the long Dunzi wood, one by one to link the people crossing the river has become a "bridge." But the locals do not call it a "bridge" and called the "jump rock", and thus form a "North Gate jump rock" landscape. Jump rock on the very narrow strips of wood, only one passed, the two opposite, the total should be wary of the avoidance, or crowded into the rocks, and so the opposite of people go through before. When someone falling water, the introduction of cheers 1.
From the north gate, we walked along the wall have been the East Gate, all the way to enjoy both sides of the walls black tiles and white walls, roof and launched into, very characteristic of the residential areas. Citation guides us around the East Gate, on to the next to the Hongqiao, Phoenix beauty of "bridges Yeyue" is written here.
Hongqiao is a north-south direction, across the Stone Arch Tuojiang Boasting built in the Ming Hongwu years, the three arches two piers, large-scale, its oldest in a little elegant, vicissitudes of life in a little misty, afar distant mood. Tuojiang from east to west through the Hongqiao, with the Tuojiang looked over the past while, is hanging on the rocks at Sandy Bay rows Diaojiaolou, bustling with the wind and rain on the floor, Hongqiao as a single entity, leaving the surface of the waves in the river floating reflection; long while, is the Xia-Chang Xia fog Pavilion, 10000 towers, as well as the faint little boat, according to the town of Castle Peak Phoenix cloud tree. And this is just how beautiful a picture呀!

Along the River Walk, a tour of Haven House and at the end of Xiachang 10000 tower, tour guides do an excellent arrangement, drifting along the Tuo, straight to the cemetery Kikunami Shen Cong-wen Hill.
Tuo, Shen Cong-wen is undoubtedly the favorite here has left much of his childhood fun. His naive, naughty, truancy, lying, and most with this water-related. "Privately run school for fear that Xiahe a bath, and every time casual hours at noon, as usual, the left hand must be in the hearts of each one with the red crayon to write Chinese characters, we still continue to be able to single-handedly held high, the bubbles into the water in the body to play a half a day ... ... I am feeling flow without solidification, the impact of one group Shiba really do not give me small, I have more time than a beautiful young life, most of the water can not be separated. My school can say that in the water's edge. I know the United States, learn to think, I have great water on the relationship. "alas! Tuo, its crystal-clear river, turning us from Shen's childhood had been to him a place to leave ... ...
Kikunami Hill, a hill close to Tuojiang the delicate features, a half a kilometer away from the Phoenix county, along the river rafting in less than 20 minutes to arrive; where both mountain breeze Greenfield, another river rapids, mountains and rivers between the breeze kick into gear, Shen Cong-wen's burial here, it may be able to hear the accent, feeling nostalgia, being indifferent to his life, return to their homes for the elderly should be as intended.
Looking at the foot of the Tuo, but also seemed to have heard Shen Cong-wen childhood bath cheerful Xixiao Sheng, "how many times this river nearly Juequ me, but also thanks to his mobility, to help me doing that cross the sea sail in Yuan Meng, Fang enable me to still be properly lived a life in this world. "
However, now the river is far zone has been gone, Mr. ... ...

Shen Cong-wen left Kikunami Hill cemetery, we are along the Tuo, along past the narrow Guan Dao walked back to town. Mentioned by the quasi-Hermitage (middle of the river Temple), wins Tsui House, East Gate, and filled with wax (tie) dye such as the Miao costumes busy street, before finally arriving in Camp Street, on the 10th, here is the former residence of Shen Cong-wen.
Shen Cong-wen said the ancestral home in Guizhou, Guizhou, his grandfather had done the Governor, and later moved to Phoenix River Jiaping, followed by Phoenix and then moved to the town of the county seat of Tuojiang. This house was the then Crown when his grandfather concern and preparation, and so far has been 100 years of history. House little low center of one side of the courtyard a small courtyard, surrounded by eight old house, Shen Cong-wen's life on display photographs, manuscripts and presentations of various versions of his writings, is a house of his drawings hung Zhongtang portrait on the left wing of his past, bedroom, a carved wood reveals a western Hunan styles. Shen Cong-wen was born in 1902 here, and here spent his childhood. 15 years old, Shen Cong-wen left here, left the phoenix, the house has changed hands several times in 1982, when Shen Cong-wen back home, there was also home to other people. Until 1988, the local government was to buy back the house, re-repair, and we put a "Shen Cong-wen's old home," the plaque.
"I grew up in such a small town, and nearly 15 years of age had left. Out two and a half back to the small town that once had then, up until now, then I will not go off gates. But I was familiar with the local . Now there are many people living in that city, I often live in that small town in the past gave me the impression. "In Shen Congwen's book, autobiography, he wrote so fondly a camel. Now think of it, it seems that I am looking cited and accompanied all the way, and it was he such a right to feel nostalgic feelings of the Phoenix ... ...

This is the third day of the Phoenix, and that evening we will leave the Phoenix return journey. We all intend to use the last day of the stroll the small town, eat delicious local snacks, and then buy some batik scarves, handbags etc, like the Miao costumes, or the kiwi fruit abound in Phoenix, but I would like to see and Shen Cong-wen on the ground . Southern Great Wall.
So in a guide, under the leadership of Wenchang Pavilion I came to school, it is Shen Cong-wen read primary schools. Wenchang Pavilion Primary School was founded in the late Qing dynasty period (AD 1904), has been doing the past hundred years. In May 1982, Shen Cong-wen came back to Phoenix on the third day here, when he went to the teacher office, to which all the teachers who has held a bow. I am truly sorry for the teachers: "You are here predecessors, we should salute you is." He said: "I was a student here, now or here, students and teachers should have to salute." He saw Many elementary school students to visit the outside, they greet you come in, "We are all students Well!", a nostalgic feeling of awe people.
Afternoon, I boarded the South Wall, South Wall is just one of mountain towers and connected with a section of wall, they use a block of quartzite masonry, though it is ruins, but looking down from above can still feel the towering. East-west and the Great Wall of China different from the North, South Great Wall is a north-south direction. It stretches over 190 km, among which there are nearly 100 km in Phoenix, Raoshan across water, the guardian of the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau Road, a gateway leading to Hunan.
I use my old department Nikon, left a towering towers, leaving the old stone Walled, leaving away the Tuojiang and Miao girls sweet smile; when I looked through the lens to the Phoenix, a distance just a mist, but I seem to still see that small town, that tower, jump rocks, Diaojiaolou, Boasting a ... ... all in all, I also think that part of Shen's words: "Although this is only an outline, but all the local scenario, but it floats raised, it seems to touch their hands to touch ... ....
