From the stone mast rock out, it is already noon, and our next stop is the ancient village Nanxi middle group, stone mast rocks Pakistan can not take the exit, only chartered to the.
In the car the driver said it was a rather scornful tone of several villages have any good-looking, only a few remnants of the old house is still supporting the facade. He recommended to us Nanxi the upper village of Templeton, Templeton hidden in the mountains upstream Nanxi thousands of years, very few victims of war abuses, very well preserved ancient villages, as well as a painter in Zhejiang activity center . We could not help listening to Heart, hurriedly asks route. Pakistani driver said there were unreasonable, and only chartered to go, the prices of 250 packets, round 5 hours. We could not help tongue, forget it, or for our trip to leave more regret Nanxi beauty bar.
To the Rock Town has is 1 o'clock, and the Tibetan antelope introduced different rock Town is already a very modern town, and noisy markets, noisy pop songs, and I thought alien to the ancient village. Eaten a bowl of very good to eat 8 literal, we leave in a hurry this bustling town.
Town from the rocks to the west, they came to the ancient rock Village, a river runs through a small village with a meandering river shore Long Street, long the rain on the street a few hundred meters long gallery, care of the travel of the pedestrian, rain Gallery by one side is a beautiful river winding through, and now only the white-haired old lady sitting above the Remembrance of Things Past in its own. Step on the cobblestone paths in Long Street, very comfortable, on-street kindly old lady selling her to us unknown wild branches. Min said that they also have home, and excitedly got to buy one, the old lady said, 2 yuan a, Min took an old woman shaking her head again and again not enough, spoke captured almost half of the basket of fruit-bearing branch to us. Jerry and I can not help but sing praises of public moral, public moral.
Rain Gallery is the seat of the end of the bridge, small bridge there is a hoary old camphor tree, tree trunk thick, but several people have come to encircle the roots have been highlighted on the ground, above covered with moss. A huge shade of a tree covered bridges, extending across the river, a few elderly people are sitting zhangshuxia chatted leisurely days, two small yellow-dog playing catch-up on the bridge back and forth, neglects the pedestrian bridge in the past, The bridge passes over the flowing river is tenderness, one or two women wash clothes in the river shore. Sunlight through the camphor tree a little bit of sprinkled in the river, the bridge, we played in the shade of a tree to enjoy the sweet and sour flavor of wild fruit sticks to.
Rock Village is not far out of Cang Pocun, the next road along the farm trail walk a few hundred meters, we can see the Po Cun Zhai Men Cang, and Zhaimen a letter to "Cang Poe Creek Gate" a few strong characters Qiu Jin, just do not know this "River Gate" word Why. All around the village with Zhaiqiang enclosed, it seems fare evasion is no door. Introduced in the village looking at the door when wearing a Mao suit of the elderly over and we struck up a conversation, take the initiative to do our tour guide, as long as 5 yuan. We all know very little about ancient cultures, they invited old man. Old man who has more than 70, and explain the inverted well, just a Wenzhou Mandarin is hard to understand, we can only guess even Mongolia have also listened to a tape about.
Cang Pocun from the Song and Yuan Jian-year period has been the Millennium Village, an ancient village, has turned out hundreds of Scholars is really plowing the home ah. Therefore, this village's planning is also very interesting, he first entered the village there is a small pond, which symbolizes one of the four treasures, "Yan", in a small pond next to the two long strips of stone, symbolizing the "ink", the village of the Central People's straight changjie, symbolizing the "pen", Long Street, opposite the end of a mountain peak shaped like most of the penholder. This village is square side, it symbolizes the "paper." In the village, "pen and ink, paper and ink," in place, no wonder more out of this at the end of the chin-shih.
Cang Pocun the corner there is a small pavilion, pavilion called "look brother pavilion." Old man talk before there are two brothers, brother separation to another village, because the brothers Wife, brother still often return to chang Poe came to visit his younger brother chatted late into the night before every home, my brother sent to her brother every time Cang slope back after getting home, rain or shine. Neither of us is probably the easy way, the brothers have built a village in their own pavilion, older brother back entrance to the village after the pavilion point lantern, my brother would know that they've safely arrived at his brother. This pavilion will be documented in the endless affection the two brothers, called descendants pay their last respects.
Cang slope traveled around in a circle, as if by the baptism of an ancient culture, and the old man farewell, we gave him to mention two proposals: First, Mandarin would be a much improved second is best to wear Dui Jin Tang suit, to do more professional tour guide, and he waved again and again, actually say that some blush like how OK, then how line, multi-shy ah.
Furong Village is the last one that we look at the ancient village, which is located in Furong Feng, under, here also there have been a vigorous struggle against the anti-yuan, and later people in the village died heroically. Furong Village Zhaimen like a castle, one to see that in ancient times great than the Cang slope forces. Into the Zhaimen, they heard the sound of Tintin bare beat, was originally the village's old buildings are in maintenance, brick wood everywhere, very unpleasant. We only have a week around the village along Zhai Qiang, Zhai Qiang Fu Yung's high, all piled with oval-shaped pebbles, cobblestones covered with moss, every few meters there is a borehole, used against foreign enemies. All the village's road paved with cobblestones, roadside drains run through the village, water drainage is very convenient. The village road Qiguaibaguai a moment brings us to around confused about which is to defend against a foreign enemy scored a pattern designed by the village bar. The end, we asked a child to survive from the Furong Village, walked out of the maze.
Nanxi edge of the ancient villages in general are not very prominent kind, architectural style, not so of Huizhou houses a unique, but they are this small village in a very profound design reflects thousands of years of Chinese Confucian culture accumulation. Ancient village ancestors passed with the architectural language of thought Chunghsiao etiquette in order to constantly educate these children and grandchildren. However, we can now only be read through the introduction of the elderly that we need the culture of their ancestors. In these villages, and everywhere one can see the sit chatting with the elderly and children at play, but rarely see young people, plowing the family's culture has not attract young people in these villages, and most of them went to Wenzhou and even farther to work, and the ancient villages of this architectural form inherited the Confucian culture as the old people slowly get old, die. . . . .
