Many years later I went to Phoenix
(Excerpt)
. . . . . .
Because the rush to see the scenery, in a very old bridge found a hotel put things inside. Stone path along the left bank of the walking bridge to the pier. Lili began to cheer up the depressed, issued crisp laughter, features a move, said: "too beautiful, too beautiful."
Exactly of cruise down the slope to the next one, I put the camera on the good, as tourists screaming when I shoot down.
We go directly to the pier bridge, I stood on the pier watching thinking.
Tuojiang clear to the eastward the water year after year, is a Hmong Tuojiang two shore of Diaojiaolou the right, Yi Duo ancient city walls and ancient stone street closely together. School children playing or from an alley drill into another alley, the shop door, whether business is good or bad will be from day to day driving, grasping shrimp were either winter or summer days will be still water, aunt aunt who regardless of cold or hot, will continue to be if nothing had happened to the laundry, rent a house one day people will stay in the room waiting for guests. . . . . .
Those who continue to maintain a share of honest businessmen, of course, there are thoughts deceive more money.
We are on the boat, boatman gives a yell the boat stays up. At this time I was unusually quiet, hand out into the water, watching the water algae, Xie Shizhao Diaojiaolou the right bank.
Suddenly crisp songs passed down over the original to the Nazuo's oldest bridge, two miaojia front of us girls are singing, boatman slowed. Lili to see me become so away God, we laughed and said: "If I were you would consider coming to Phoenix to find one."
Although I knew I was passing, but also know that they are specially arranged by travel companies, but the moment I really hope that he can sing folk songs, and they are the previous three days and three nights.
Boat to go very far, we intend to advance, the way boatmen can send us to the bridge that ancient, but also and their joint venture. Lili told a group photo immediately excited, and features a move, said: "Well, Well, you can get a good shot."
Shoot a good photo, then send our next two miaojia girl into the boat. We have looked at the shore, south of the Great Wall rush.
. . . . . .
Night we slept in Diaojiaolou, perhaps tired, and a bed to sleep, even the sound of Phoenix have forgotten the night listening to.
When I awoke the next morning went Tuojiang side of the head inserted into the cold water inside. Xiahe wanted to swim, and would like to sticky point Aura. However, no one to do so, have no choice but to use shampoo replaced. An uncle and asked with concern: "Water cold, do not you cold?"
I laughed and said: "I do not stand the cold, the winter you can swim in Xiahe."
Days was also raining, I looked at the river quietly.
The beauty and tranquility of Phoenix, Phoenix's content with life and longing for the outside world, which is a thick share of homesickness brought me a lot of soul shock. In addition to recollection of events of the endless crying, I can not do anything.
Many years later, Shen Cong-wen's ashes returned home, escorted by his family to realize his "one soldier was not killed in battle, that is, back home," the long-cherished wish. Many years later I went to Phoenix to achieve a "No matter what kind of things, I have to go there to see the" long-cherished wish.
