Hibiscus
The long period of depression caused me to have a tendency to suffer from neurasthenia again, and I couldn't sleep well for a week in a row, which made me very irritable. I woke up early on Thursday morning and suddenly wanted to go out for a walk, so I bought a ticket, booked a room, checked the route, took a day off, and immediately prepared to go to martial arts. I looked at the weather forecast and it seemed that there was moderate rain, but the beautiful scenery in the rain had its own charm. , so he ran towards Xiu Wu.
The journey went smoothly. I arrived at my hotel at noon, had a meal and took a short rest. I heard that there would be many tourists on weekends, so I planned to go to Hongshi Gorge on the first day. The weather was sultry when I went out, but now it's time for the autumn cicadas to bloom. It doesn't sound as noisy and annoying as in summer. It has a feeling of farewell, like the voice of a dying old man, and it looks like it's going to rain. As soon as I got off the bus on the tourist bus, it started to rain. There were not many people, but I couldn't be leisurely. There was still a feeling of crowds. I have never been to a canyon, and as soon as I entered it, I was amazed. We walked one after another, surrounded by mountains on all sides, and the mountain roads were winding, rainy and foggy, and we didn't know where we were. At the end of the stone steps, you pass through a cave and enter the canyon. Between the two mountains, there is a winding passage, far away, with red rock walls lining up, like a huge red curtain floating down in the air. Traveling between heaven and earth, you can listen to the noisy roar of Pingya Cliff in the distance. It sounds like bells and thunder, and then there are exquisite tinkling sounds. The canyon is like a heavenly road for a bride to get married. Maybe this is the giant spirit written in the poem. Roaring and smashing the two mountains, I don't know which fairy married her daughter. She divided a mountain with her hands to make two walls, used the flow of time and space to form red rocks, and used the clear tune of water and stone to make gongs and drums to send her beloved daughter off to get married. As I zigzag along the half-empty mountain road, sometimes I see water pouring down and hitting the rocks, and sometimes it slowly slides along the red walls. The colors of the stone walls change layer by layer, which is beyond the power of God. It makes me believe that this is the way for the goddess to get married.
The number of tourists increased sharply the next day. When the sun rose in the morning over Dongshan Mountain, the green mountains lost their sharpness and became particularly beautiful. Tourists came and went incessantly. The wind in the mountain is cold, but as you go up the stone steps, you start to sweat profusely, and as the day gets closer, you feel the morning light bathing your whole body. The stone steps are quite steep, and the plank road hangs in the sky. Walking cautiously, with all the mountains lying under your feet, it is like walking on the clouds. This is also the Cornus Peak.
When we arrive at the bottom of the mountain at noon, there are more and more tourists. Some are sitting or half-lying, some are eating, some are waiting for the bus, some are walking or looking into the distance, and the sun is shining brightly. The afternoon plan was to visit Macaque Valley, Tanpu Gorge, Quanpu Gorge, but when we arrived at Tanpu Gorge, the number of tourists exceeded my calculation. The stone bridge passing by the door already made me feel like thousands of troops were rushing towards me. , standing at the foot of the mountain, I only saw crowds of people, as if there were countless moving heads on the entire mountain. I could only follow the crowd, walking one step at a time. The sound of words around me had drowned out the sound of running water. I couldn't see the three steps, one spring, five steps and one waterfall. Ten steps to a pool, you can see a hundred people in one step, and five hundred people in two steps. Looking from the stone steps, people are flowing like waves. There is no tranquility in such green mountains, and such springs and waterfalls are no longer calm. So at a fork in the emergency evacuation route, I decided to give up following the crowd and turn back halfway. On the way down the mountain, I happened to look at a little traveled path. It seemed lonely and rarely traveled, and I didn’t know where it was leading. There was no running water at the end of the path, but I heard the gurgling water and looked at it. There were many rocks at the foot of the mountain, small and large, scattered in the middle. There is running water and few people are walking. There are two roads beside the stone, one of which is green and close to the water, with green shade surrounding the ground. There are signs beside it, so you can proceed forward. On the way, we stepped on rocks and passed through water. Green grass floated lightly in the water. The mountains and rivers were cool and refreshing, and the heat from the crowd disappeared. At the end of the mountain road, the green water seems to have turned into a bay of passing water, and the flowing light is gentle. In the clear, you can see the stone, condensed with a green color, like a huge jade embedded between the two mountains, it seems that time is flowing, not The flow of water, at this time, the water and stone are harmonious, pure and pure, forming a rhyme, the harp and harp retreat, the bell and chime are difficult to imitate, the spirit penetrates the high valley, the rock wall blocks the sun, the green is quiet, the still water flows deep, the jade in the pool condenses the waves, as if A place outside the world.
The ancients said that money cannot buy a smile, but now I only buy this spring charm and a pool of quiet water, and I have already exhausted my joy.
