Alternative wandering to Wuyuan
Has always been very envious of those who can from different places of the wandering, intimate contact with nature, over the mountains to the "knight." However, no one around at my friends this is what they call "self-flagellation" and interested in madness. So I joined the line single-handedly a "Mix" home club. In their archives, I found the imaginary knight. Recent activities from the Zhejiang Furuta mountain climb Umbilicaria Hill, to the Jiangxi Wuyuan Wuyuan I had heard that the United States, known as China's most beautiful rural areas. The event has been the club's manager rated leisure travel.
Then in September the first one Friday night, 23 points on her own I can bear the weight of a very large backpack and boarded the CMB. The car will find that the distance between the seats, but can accommodate a seated person's thighs trim the distance. Unable to move. Corridors stacked full of Mix backpack. Into the night, cars passing on the Shanghai-Hangzhou Expressway, a kind of floating feeling, each time from the shock in the wake, there is a loud cry to, and then stood up, one foot out the front seat pedal impulse, such a depression has been accompanied me to the next day at noon. Most of the people have the car sleep Sambo. Seems to be too helpful.
Saturday morning, 6:00, we reached Zhejiang Quzhou. Parking, breakfast, a brief rest. The few of us girls went to a hotel lobby looked a little better toilet wash, toilet there is only one faucet. At that time we were too busy to think considering I just want to put a look of fatigue quickly washed off, take the men's room that no one, they entered. At the same time we have found that male and female toilets in large much better than the toilet, much injustice!
After the adjustment, continue to "march." On the road, the car stood Di-off saliva cowboy songs, you humming those familiar tunes, a lot easier. Scenery along the way as if to the addition of the music, sometimes turbulent, sometimes joyful, sometimes high-pitched, sometimes low, vehicles are still bumps in the non-stop, in the winding road not stop turning in circles. Just tired of the retreat.
Used lunch, we pack two tractors to the starting hill Umbilicaria. We pushed the luggage in the car, some people or squatting or sitting. Raising the dust has always been like a fog, like mass in the rear of the vehicle. From a distance, like the migrant workers are reluctant to part with the repatriation of origin in the nostalgia. Along the way, you pass several small villages, there are several local car ride our mountain. When we ride down the last man after they diverted to a no man's land, the road bumps, as if one let go will被震out feeling closer to the Peak, the greater the wind, clouds moving quickly overhead, while heavy rain , while sandstorm, a mouth, sand on the same gum stir together.
Tractor has finally stopped, and through the beginning. Our task is to turn this Umbilicaria mountains, to reach the opposite Jiangxi Wuyuan. Umbilicaria Hill, located at the junction of Zhejiang Province and Jiangxi Province. 1260 meters above sea level. Yamamoto is not in this way, due to the villagers living in the foothills on both sides through the long years of crosses, it has become a looming trip to narrow. In the through the process, indeed encountered a villager in Jiangxi, Zhejiang and crosses to visit his 80-old-old mother. He was carrying pole, wore boots, but Jianbu like flying to those of us who wear hiking shoes are far from the left behind, when we go down the mountain the next day when they met him with us go the same way.
The more to the summit, the greater the fog, humidity permeates throughout the valley are not clear about the surrounding landscape, can not see the height of mountains, but also reduces the feeling of hanging a bit. Sweat soaked clothes, long time no such Earned a sweat dripping. Cool!
It took a half-hour, all reach the top. Top of the hill there is a temple - Longquan Temple. Inside the home to several older believers. One of the uncle bad throat, hoarseness, coughing all night, there is a poor old lady stomach, hiccups from time to time issue a "goose" the voice left us with a deep impression, so that when a lot of boys are also sent down "goose" the sound to determine position. Little old men down the mountain. Manager of the Buddha in a temple to study all day long, and the enthusiasm of villagers for the past, stopping for a rest at. There is no electricity and live sunrise and sunset of life, three meals a day self-sufficiency, in the yard, with various kinds of vegetables. We came to a pedestrian, a quiet stone to the daily increase in a lot of energy. Old people are prepared for us an abundance of vegetables, everyone sitting around the long table, in the flickering candlelight dinner where the beginning.
7 pm, ending a dinner and summary will be, and started preparations for bed. In the cities people rarely have the opportunity to be able to at this early, such a quiet environment, rest. At night, the wind in a crevice steady stream, due to the impact of typhoon, heavy rain drifting, playing in the tile on the drops on the body. The girls joked, thus eliminating the need for steps in the toner. Old people are also concerned about the people of the quilt a careful warm enough, in the faint candlelight that lights up the faces of their kind. A kind of curious, do not know what the strength to support them, day after day, in this pure land where peaceful side of life, Do they have never thought of a young age to go to the outside world to see? Are they to be in this quiet mountain life do not be lonely? Is it because there is no comparison to other lifestyles, it was willing to dull? Or is it because too many youth experienced ups and downs, why they choose this insular life? All the answers, only the years left their mark on the face, and then understand it.
The following morning, Wen cock while getting up in the morning air is very fresh, mountain spring water that some biting, fog has not yet dispersed, we are unable to see the opposite Sanqingshan the heroic and regret. 9:30 started down the mountain, to the Jiangxi Province. Although there is no downhill mountain tired, but it is also a need to have skills, and down the mountain posture, center of gravity, pivot, intensity, etc. of different, often resulting in different results, it was tired of Tuiruan, it was constantly wrestling, it was at every step, it was big meteor. Closer to the foot, the weather was better, the sun has also stuck his head at this time we see the valley's landscape, there are several mountain villages, white walls and gray tiles, smoke curl in the mountains is a layer of a layer of the terrace, a structured , patchwork, and now is not the harvest season, so it is not golden picture.
After the first one down into the village in Xiao Yong is a village in Wuyuan. The construction, I know nothing about, it is not possible to use the professional terms to describe their style, but from each household in the outer wall of the house, beautifully carved and patterns, and the lintel above the auspicious words, enough to feel the local people's yearning for a better life . Planted in front of almost every pear, pomegranate tree, loquat tree, dates and other fruit trees, so that throughout the year has a different color flowers and fruit, streams flowing from each doorstep, ripe fruit from upstream and drifted into the downstream, the water, like ducks and geese as a "dolphin" drift, do not worry they are mistaken collar, because each household had livestock in their own feet and tied ribbons, as on the mark. Into the heart of the village, there are several small grocery store, where people have become a gathering at the village, we saw large groups of foreigners, is even more lively, young and old, dragging a small child with an open look at us, and we Shop yard hastened to add supply, some people joked that our spending a month on top of their sales, but also regarded as we stimulate domestic demand, develop the local economy made a modest contribution to bar. In the far out, there is a long row of stone bench, sat a number of Laolaoxiaoxiao woman, where women do not have the original labors, mainly at home and take care of the House, a day late to eat breakfast in a fixed place together chatter homemade, from the youngest of ten to eighty or ninety years old are the oldest, until only casual dinner, eat dinner, on the rest. This kind of life for urban white-collar workers is a luxury, they are the majority of young adults, when married, and in his early twenties girls have a walking child is a common thing in another. In the stream at the end of a family's home, see his house is a new one is different from other old house style, more modern decor is also more, his first line of children's clothing and not much different with the average child, Some people had their home to work in the city. The hostess was warm and hospitable people, for we are prepared meal of local characteristics of the Deli, but also warm for us to find someone to dig sweet potatoes to eat, fresh sweet potatoes are crisp, very fragrant, moisture there are many, we are back on the road specially bought a bag full of back to Shanghai, Unfortunately, the too hasty, too tired, and the results fell in the car. Simple, kind, hospitable, beautiful, clean, Wuyuan has been recognized by the characteristics of the outside world, but also many places Mix aspire, but there is contradictory ideas, and we hope she can keep that pure, so we are always of the Pure Land, but the We also hope that they rich, to enjoy the Tong Cheng, like the city's material civilization has brought us happiness. Era in the development, communication easier, the Pure Land which side can keep for how long? I do not know when we will certainly, it is already full of new buildings, fruit trees have withered trees, streams do not bottomed out, shouting selling everywhere? Can not imagine!
Along the path of return is a long process, because there are several major highways are roads, so had to detour the line, the results we Jiangxi, Anhui, after passing Huangshan City, Shexian through the Zhejiang Province to Shanghai. Dealers to Huangshan city, a few of leisure Mix got off to another city --- Shexian. A lot of empty cars at once, we have enough room to lie down for a while on Monday 2:00 to arrive safely in Shanghai. Return total spent nearly ten hours. Wonder!
The next few days, are Yaosuanbeiteng the suffering, take the stairs, walking is a kind of torture. But if someone asks me the next will attend? I will be a firm answer: does not stand still!
