Hostess in that we do not get a place to stop over, the strongly recommended that her family's house diagonally across from the Inn --- Dongping guest houses, the master is a teacher --- Feng ink painting teacher, but only one room , and at night can take us out wandering. It sounds quite a attractive, so he went to see, the environment is also good, the window is the courtyard, the room furnishings are antique furniture, there is a Qing Dynasty Antiquities --- Xiang Fei couch, the room hanging from are von teacher's works, and we immediately decided to live down.

There is only us a river cruise, very calm and enjoy the night view of the two sides, listening to the gurgling of the water boatman sound --- Xitang finally calmed down. Peng ships head out, it was found roaming the sky with us for l'etoile. I was very excited for a long time never seen such a bright Star, and also attend to cold, just lying on the bow, watching the sky of stars, distant thoughts back to childhood, the number of stars, full moon ... ... looking at the Star , a sky full of stars, as in follow me, close your eyes and feel the sky's stars face the pressure to me, Chuaner swaying gently in the water, my heart will be also Xitang the night sky flying ... ...

Xitang large, are said to have three Zhouzhuang so large, there are more than 120 of the lane, each lane has its own story, many rich families some time off at the end of history, there is a haunted story. Walking in the dark alley, listening to the chilling ghost stories, we are all screaming, and yet not dare to run around.
Ni gone through a dark alley, Lee Lanes, Ke get home ... ... we do not know how many get passed, and retrace the Rain in gallery, the other three tenants, susceptibility to, and we should first go back to rest, we returning them to guest houses, four individuals to continue our trip to get dressed.
Anyway, gas points are thicker. In an alley, they intend to speed up the pace, I was a man thrown to the inside of the lanes and alleys, any how I cry, nor turn back, I had to slowly groping, and finally touched exports, and the kind of bright future Joy let me forget to blame specially Shuaixia my teachers and companions of Feng.
We started trying to not open flashlight, in the dark lanes and alleys where the dark forward, just started a little bit is not used to slowly adapt to the dark feeling, eyes closed as if groping forward, we are so narrow and secluded Lanes where a long felt with their breathing, listening to his footsteps, looking forward to the front of the house esoteric transmission out of the courtyard wall of the tiny moon, there is that small parties l'etoile ... ...
Through the most exciting thing of that section of the Royal Lanes, Lanes narrow, twisty and the threshold will be done, Feng teacher in front, we are holding a one followed, we all hold your breath, not daring to make sound, we came only Lanes footsteps gently forward, there are the occasional teachers there came from the von signal: Be careful threshold, turning carefully, be careful on the ground inside a pit ... ... a long time, have got used to not see five fingers that reach out of the dark feeling, With that we feel, in the secluded dark Lanes where a long slow walk through, this moment, the heart is a calm, never had a calm, because they know the darkness in the past years, light on the front. About 20 minutes, we are finally out of the Royal Lanes, and then re-see a sky full of l'etoile.
We spent more than 4 hours, in Xitang night, daytime and the wearing away more than 30 large and small, get, gone through a number of bridges, nor remember. Xitang quiet at this time, with only our four ghost-like night in wandering.
Peer wrote: think that we normally walk like a ghost of a dead in the Lanes. I said: The Lanes dead just because we do have the specter of it is even more angry.
Swim lane, but also do not feel thoroughly enjoyed themselves, followed by von teacher secretly climbing to the sons Laifeng bridge under bridges, under bridges sit parked in the boat, Feng teacher came specifically to buy rice wine, there is no cup, we shall take a bottle of drinking one mouthful, chatting, and we have known each other a long time, as a friend and there are no distance. We let Chuaner gently Dangzhao, listening to the teacher's story of Feng, and everything related Xitang ... ...
We are all surprised Xitang old could not find the old granite stone road, unexpected is that these ancient granite rock in the 80 years to sell all of the Grand View Garden in Shanghai. Xitang now 60% have been destroyed, with only 40% is more complete, still living in the town where the original inhabitants about 2 million people, and many of the houses rented to workers from the rural areas out of the person who .
Feng teacher pointed head, has ever been Laifeng bridge, this bridge with the gender of newborn babies is okay, the only bridge at that time, the feng shui masters had their shop to wait for the Phoenix flew the first one on the slate was auspicious. So looking at the horizon and other craftsmen on the emergence of Phoenix, all the way to see that there are only birds and sailing over, that the Phoenix came, hastened to put the first piece of slate covered with, and who knows it's not Phoenix, but an unknown black birds, had no choice but to continue to bridge capped with stone, and covered on the fourth block, the Phoenix flew in from the horizon. The bridge was originally named "Laifeng Bridge", but because the bird in front of Blackbird, so the children will be deemed to be the first to step in Phoenix and later renamed the "sons Laifeng bridge." But now the bridge is rebuilt, but also widened, lengthened, the original bridge is very small and very short, stone is also sold 80 years of Grand View Garden of Shanghai.
The dead of night, hiding under bridges swing of the boat, drinking Jiashan rice wine, listening to the teacher speaks tirelessly on von Xitang everything just like in a dream, like ... ...
Middle of the night's Xitang, can people remove all of the armed forces, there is no distance between people in the most authentic of all their own to face, no fake ornaments, wanted to laugh to laugh, cry cry, like a quiet on the sat blankly, no one will care about you at this time to reveal all natural, and no one would go to stop it all ... ...
Late at night, we climbed up from under the flyover bridge, through gallery where Litou out from the dim lantern light, there is the moonlight for us to lead the way, we are slowly swing back to guest houses, and this time, has been in the morning The 2:00 a.

Huanxiu sitting on the bridge, watching the calm river, the immediate is a morning Xitang landscapes, without concentrated loading, but Dan Ma, is already a superior ink, it is endless intoxication.
So I sat in the bridge, leaving time to slowly flow away a long time refused to leave, which broke away!
