The weather is fine and the winter sun is warm. Starting from Dayantou Village in Xianxi, we go through the mountains and ridges to Xianqiao Scenic Area. It took us seven hours to travel 14.11 kilometers.
Within the 100-square-kilometer scenic area, the mountains and rivers are filled with the spirit of immortality that is clear to the bones. The stream is called Xianxi, the lake is called Longhu, there is Qiongdao Fairy Mountain in the lake, the virgin who jumped from the cliff to death is called Xiangu, the grotto where she hid is called Xiangu Cave, there is a natural stone cave named Xianren Cave, and there is a natural stone bridge named Xianren bridge.
The Xianqiao Scenic Area at the northernmost end of Yandang Mountain is said to be the place where the Immortal Prince Jin flew over on a crane. Many scenic spots here are related to this flying fairy: Immortal Bridge, Immortal Pavilion, Immortal Cave (North Shiliang Cave), Chuixiao Peak, Xianting Mountain, Danzao Rock, Shiqi Ping, etc.
There is great beauty in heaven and earth, and the world on earth is like a fairyland. Buddha is respectable, gods are fearful, and immortals are amiable. What common people love most are immortals. Immortals are the product of people's desire to transcend themselves. They are sublimated people, so the fairyland is actually the human realm. Walking through the water, bamboo paths lead to tranquility, people are talking in the sky, and chickens are singing in the clouds. It is said that people in this fairyland are all in the world. The farmers in the "Peach Blossom Spring" are like gods to outsiders.
