Journey to the Mountain

The mountain in the south is yang, and there is Aoyang, and there is also a mountain in the south, called Mengshan; the north of the mountain is yin, and there is a yin, and there is also a mountain in the north that is in the east-west direction. It's called Qinglong Gu. I live at the foot of this mountain. I heard from the old man that the two parallel mountains were picked by Erlang Shen from his hometown using tangerines. At this place on the path, an old man invited him to rest. He spoke to him, and his immortal energy leaked out. The tangerine was broken, and the mountain took root here. From then on, there was no mountain in the mouth. I hope that the old man is the transformation of Grandma Taishan. She probably wants to talk to him and ask him to put the mountain down.

Back then, Ao Guang, the Dragon King of the East China Sea, and Erlang Shen Guankou were hosted by Grandma Taishan at the Riguan Peak of Mount Tai. The three gods drank wine and talked about the mountains. When they talked about the high mountains, Grandma looked at the clouds and mist below the peak, and she looked complacent. . The second reason was that the gods were dissatisfied and asked to compare whose mountain was taller, and the scene just now occurred.

After the two gods left, Grandma Taishan stood on the sun-watching stone and watched. After a while, she first saw Erlang God carrying two mountains, swaying towards him, higher than her own. After a while, I saw Ao Guang carrying a big mountain out of the East China Sea in a cloth bag, which was also higher than his own. After tricking Erlang Shen into letting go of the mountain, she did not go home. Instead, she secretly walked behind the Dragon King, pulled out the hairpin on his head, and dug a hole in his cloth bag. So now when she comes out of the East China Sea, there are only a few mountains. Mountains, all the way to Mount Tai. There is a lonely hill next to Mount Tai, called Bishan.

Climbing the mountain behind me, there is a peak called Big Mama. The shape of its peak is like a mother’s breast during the breastfeeding period. The name is both abstract and subtle, making people think of a crying child. He gave his mother a hug, and the mother first took out her breast and stuffed it in the child's mouth, and he stopped crying. In literary and artistic works, there is a peak called Naizifeng, which is the second highest peak of my mountain. From this peak, you can see the Aoshan Mountain parallel to this mountain in the distance. The easternmost peak is very steep, and there is another peak next to it, which is taller and thicker than it. To the west, the mountain is gentle, and it is long and close to Xintai City. The overall shape is higher in the east and lower in the west, which is very similar to the Chinese character "AO". Later, the side of the character "Zou" was replaced by the side of "山子", and the revolving door was used to refer to the mountain. You can also see the mountains in front of Aoshan Mountain, which are the Mengshan Mountains mentioned at the beginning.

Looking down, I see my lovely village, and there are several tombs in which the flesh and blood of my ancestors are buried. From the theoretical point of view of Feng Shui, our place has Qinglonggu as its backing, Aoshan as its mountain in front, and Chaoshan in front of the mountain, which is the mountain where Aoguang Budai leaked. Feng Shui masters assert that great people will emerge from such a treasured Feng Shui land. It is true that my lovely hometown is a treasure, but it has never produced a great man, let alone a decent celebrity. Instead, it produced a stone in a latrine, a smelly and hard servant. Now I guess that the beautiful story at the beginning was made up by talented people in our village with beautiful dreams for the people in their hometown. The people in our village speak very boldly, waiting for me to rest my head on Qinglonggu and pedal on Qinggang Mountain. (We call Aoshan Mountain Qinggang Mountain, probably because it was picked together with Qinglonggu Mountain.) With my current status, there is no suspense about burying my bones, and sooner or later I will set foot on Qinggang Mountain. Be determined to see what the mountain you are stepping on will look like after the big event.

Choose an auspicious day to go see the mountain. Take a bus and pass by Qingyun Road, which is directly west of the side of Mount Qing. At this time, the peak looks like a raised thumb. In the words of the old people in our village, Like an old woman's feet. Come to the eastern suburb of Xintai, get off at the tail end of the west side of Qishan Mountain. There is an artificial embankment connecting the end of Dongling and Jishan on the outskirts of the city. The embankment is about 1,600 meters long, five meters wide and more than 40 meters deep, turning the deep ditch into a smooth road, which is a unique scene. The beautiful scenery on the left and right sides of the embankment is so beautiful that there is a flat lake under the mountain. Although it is artificial, it is better than the magic of magic and axe. It is euphemistically called Qingyun Lake. After walking across the embankment, we actually came to the west end of Mount Qi. Looking up, we saw a tall monument to the martyrs and heroes. There are a number of stone steps in front of the stele. Climb up the steps and you will reach a square at the top. A high platform is built in the square, and the stele is erected on it. The platform is surrounded by white marble railings. The stele is made of granite and is about 20 meters high. The book The people's heroes are immortal. After paying homage to the heroes, I prepared to go up the mountain.

There are two ways to go up the mountain. One is to the east of the Monument Square and climbs up the steps to reach the peak of the mountain; Depending on your own physical strength, after careful consideration and weighing the pros and cons, it is easier to take a car. Take a bus to see the scenery, walk around to see the flowers, the spring scenery is colorful, and you don’t have to get back to the bus to reach the station.

There is a huge stone carving Qingyun Mountain next to the station. There is a small note on the side. It is said that in a certain month of a certain year, a Beijing official passed by this place on official business. He went to the mountain to observe the scenery and wrote a poem with the words of Qingyun in it. So he changed its name to Qingyun Mountain. The meaning of steady progress. The 充yin and 充yang do not change. When I was studying in the 充yin middle school, 充yin and 充yang often sent the wrong letters to each other.

Stop gossiping, mountain climbing is important, and the mountain is famous if it has immortals. There are four gods living in this mountain, and there is the Sanguan Hall halfway up the mountain. There are three gods, the Heavenly Official, the Earthly Official, and the Human Official, who are in charge of the three realms. He is the grandson of the Dragon King of the East China Sea, and the three children of Liu Yi and the Shepherdess. They are respectively the number one scholar and the dragon and phoenix among men. When an official serves the people, he does good deeds throughout his life and becomes a god later. The road was winding and winding, with green pines and yellow thorns on both sides. After a while, we arrived in front of the Sanguan Hall, where we saw that the stone steps in front of the door were made of a huge stone. There are ten and two pedals, each of which is forty miles high and less than twenty miles wide, which means that the length at the right angle is less than 2.4 meters, and the height at the right angle is 4.8 meters. With such a slope, my only ability is to use my hands and feet.

There are three main halls at the entrance, with raised cornices, straight ridges and sloping roofs, and a standard resting top. The three east and west wing rooms each have the same slightly smaller style. There is one gate in the south, one bell tower in the east gate, and one drum tower in the west gate. Corresponding to the morning bell and evening drum, there are also three. Take the meaning of "two is born in one life, three is born in two, and thousands are born in three". There are two wing rooms on both sides of the main hall, which are used by administrators. There is an ceremonial gate on the wall in front of the wing room, which is the two road leading to the peak. Pushing on the top from the back on the west side and pushing on the top on the east side on the east side, I walked out of Xiyi Gate. In front of the door is a small arborvitae forest. The trees are not very tall or thick, but they are very old. Growing on this granite that seems not to have a drop of soil, the roots are rugged, with exposed concavities and convexities, clinging to the rock, like eagle claws gripping the ground, like steel drill roots wedged in concrete; the tree crown is thick below and thin on top, green and green, layer by layer. The trees are layered on top of each other, as if they are made of green knots, or like green lotuses in bud. The woods are not very far away, and there are also a few sparse arborvitae trees, and there are clearly a few green clouds floating in the woods. This should be a scene. I was admiring the trees when I was called back by the manager, who told me that there were many people today and asked him to go up the mountain from the east side and down the mountain from the back, because there is only room for one person on the way to the peak.

I had no choice but to turn back and go out of Dongyi Gate. I looked up and saw that it was the main peak of Qishan Mountain. It rose abruptly, as if it was about to overwhelm the sky. It was bare, with all the vines attached. Neither. The four characters "Taishan brother-in-law" are engraved on it. They are written boldly and boldly, with high spirits. The characters add color to the mountain and the mountain makes the characters famous. Taishan's brother-in-law, so to speak, is related to Taishan. This mountain is married to Taishan's grandma's sister. It seems to be related to Bishan in those days. There is a grandma's temple on the top of the mountain. We should call it accurately, the Temple of the Second Aunt in Qishan Mountain.

As I looked and thought, I reached the turning point of climbing the peak. There was a mountain peak in front of me, as bare as a boulder. This is the one connected to the main peak as seen from Naizi Mountain. Here, there is a small trail below. apart.

We turned back and walked westward along the mountain. Although it was not difficult to reach the mountain, the good times did not last long. After a while, we came across a tall boulder. There is a crack between the stone and the mountain, about one step wide, and the only way up is through the crack. A hole is drilled in the mountain and the boulder, which can only accommodate the feet. When climbing, the legs are spread apart and the arms are also spread out in a large shape. Both hands and feet are used to push up. A string of climbers is like playing Spider-Man. If in the era of cold weapons, one person was sent to guard this place, it would be enough to stop ten thousand people. Climb up and you will see the upper surface of the stone. Although there is an iron railing on the south side of the surface, I did not go over to take a look. The place where Mount Tai's brother-in-law is carved is probably below. After a few steps, I saw another stone. This stone had steps cut directly on it, similar to the steps in front of the Sanguan Temple, but slightly slower. Climbing up this stone, you are greeted by another stone. The steps above are carved out of the mountain surrounding the stone. When you climb to the outermost steps, it is difficult not to look down. Glancing down gently, I feel as if my body is in the air. The clear Sanguan Temple below is like an exquisite classical architectural handicraft; the small arborvitae grove is like a potted arborvitae bonsai. Feeling distracted, I hurriedly turned around, not daring to focus on anything else. I turned my attention to climbing the mountain and climbed this rock. After walking a few steps, I reached the end of the west side of the peak, with a cliff below.

Walking back and continuing to climb the mountain, the terrain is almost flat at this time. There are a few rocks, small and as big as an ox, sitting or standing, supine or lying down, as if flying from the sky. It is engraved with celebrity inscriptions, and calligraphy-loving spectators often stay here. I walked through this place and saw the mountain peak that I said earlier looked like a raised thumb. It turned out to be two huge rocks, like the index finger and the middle finger joined together, pointing straight at the sky, as if questioning the sky and asking for justice from the sky. These two stones can be called the Wentian Stone or the Justice Stone. The sky is ruthless and the best at breaking up the entangled emotions in the world.

For example, those who have a bunch of wired relationships that can't be separated by constant cutting, and become flat when smashed; those who have ex-boyfriends, girlfriends, ex-wives, ex-husbands, male and female mistresses, triangles with each other, messy relationships, you should come here to pay your respects. Ershi can help you ask the sky for justice.

After naming the two stones, walking forward, the space suddenly became open and flat. It was like walking on a flat stone. There was not even a blade of grass. It was really a clear hill, called Qinggang. The mountains are right too. Mount Tai is not Lei's. I feel like this mountain is Lei's. If it is true that it was higher than the mountain back then, it is not impossible for Yang Jian to ask his friend, the Giant Spirit God, to help him build a mountain peak with huge rocks and make it taller. Otherwise there wouldn't even be a tree growing on the entire mountain.

After another turn, we reached the south side of the mountain and saw the Grandma Temple. The building specifications are higher than the Sanguan Temple, but the scale is smaller than the Sanguan Temple. She is responsible for the affairs of the Three Realms alone and performs the duties of Taishan Grandma. They are sisters, as befitting the Dragon King brothers and sisters, so the three fairies should be called the second aunt and grandma. The three of them are the grandsons of the Dragon King of the East China Sea, and we are the direct grandsons of Mount Tai of China. We should be uncles and cousins, and we are the same generation. To this day, people in Tai'an no longer add other titles after the three officials. The temple is now rebuilt. The roof of the verandah is built according to the four directions of the Eight Trigrams. It is loud and gorgeous. It is not difficult with the current construction equipment. I heard that when the old temple was built a long time ago, some necessities were carried on sheep. A group of sheep were penned at the foot of the mountain. Beans were sprinkled on the top of the mountain to lure the sheep to eat. When the sheep got familiar with it, they were fed on the top of the mountain every day. Every time before letting go, the sheep should be tied with the necessary items for building the temple. From then on, whenever it was a clear morning, there would always be white clouds rising from the base of the mountain to the top of the mountain. These sheep have received the spiritual power of the sheep shepherded by the little dragon girl, or have been helped by the little dragon girl. They are all handsome and smart, just like virgins. The construction used as few bricks and tiles as possible and used more local materials. There are still traces of quarrying to this day.

There are several huge rocks behind the temple, which are much higher than the small temple. That is the highest point of Mount Qi. It will be the top of the mountain, so you must go up. Standing on it, there is another realm. Looking up at the sky, the blue sky and the white clouds, it really feels like walking on the blue clouds. It is also comfortable to change to Qingyun Mountain. At that time, Confucius stepped on Mount Tai and the world was small, which was the sigh of the sage, and the sage stepped on the big mountain; today, when Xiling steps on Mount Quai, the world is small, which is the sigh of the subordinates, who climbed the small mountain. (I mean my sky is small) I looked down and saw several houses below. The air was fresh and I could see clearly. The door of the house faced the patio, my eyes were facing the sky, and the door faced the street. The mountains in the distance can be seen from the roots to the top. Qinglonggu, parallel to this mountain, has a winding mountain shape. It does look like a dragon from here, and the beautiful breast peak seems to be no more than a handful. In the fields below, there is my beautiful little village and a small place where my soul rests. Looking around, there are mountains surrounding each other. The shape of the mountains does not distinguish between east and west, and the peaks are piled up in random directions. Their momentum is like galloping, like thousands of horses galloping, turning, spinning, and I feel a little dizzy. We have reached the top and our goal has been achieved. It is better to save some energy and go down the mountain. They say it is easier to go up than to go down.

I hurriedly followed others to the place going down the back mountain. When I looked down, I broke out in a cold sweat. My second aunt lived there! What should I do? Those who go down the mountain use their hands and feet like sugar gourds. If they lose their footing, they will turn into a pile of meat. Now I understand the true meaning of the idiom "It's hard to get off the tiger." At this point, it was useless to be afraid, so I had to bite the bullet and climb up. Others used their hands and feet, but I pushed my butt a little extra, and I basically slipped down the entire mountain. If you play with this style as a child, you will definitely get slapped by your mother. She doesn't feel sorry for her son's butt, but feels sorry for his pants. When I came to a flat place, not only did I sigh, but I was tired and frightened without looking at the mountains after returning from the mountain. At that time, Saint Kong expressed such emotion. If you don’t believe it, there is no element of fatigue in it. I patted the dust on my body, straightened my clothes, touched my stiff face, and put my left hand on my waist. Xiling was shocked, thinking that I was going to compose a poem, so he tried to persuade me: Come on, let's not be poor. , no matter how hard I tried, I couldn’t get on the shuttle bus. I was secretly amused. This guy always followed me like a shadow, bursting out from time to time. My face was twisted and my mouth couldn't open. I was covered in dust and my pants were frayed. His appearance was worse than that of a bereaved dog. If I was in the mood to stay for a long time, let alone be gifted. poetry. I didn't argue with him for the first time.

The road is long when talking, but short when not talking. Then I sat on the chair of the shuttle bus, swinging my feet. I was really tired. Although I was not thirsty or hungry, I ate and drank a lot along the way. I was too lazy to remember. Wandering around in the car, squinting vaguely, I remembered the rocking chair next to my bookshelf:

Good cars and bad cars sway, but

I can still swim while lying on the rocking chair.

From now on I don’t envy the beautiful scenery.

I don’t have a boat.

It is also like riding a boat with fine wine, two or three friends boating on Qingyun Lake, chanting "High Mountain and High Moon" and Xiaoyu transforming into an immortal. After a while, he went up the mountain to become the king, ascended to the Juyi Hall, sat on a tiger-skin chair, hung a banner for the Way of Heaven, killed the rich and helped the poor, rejoicing in gratitude and revenge. My legs were still a little wobbly, as if I were stepping on cobblestones with my bare feet. Although I looked down at the stone, although it was small, its shape was very familiar, much like the boulders I saw in Qishan Mountain. When I looked again, my eyes were dim, and it seemed as if I have also become a stubborn stone, mixed in with it. While I was thinking wildly, I suddenly heard the sound of a military bugle. I hurriedly opened my eyes. It turned out that it was the driver honking the horn to signal that I had arrived at the station.

Appendix:

There is a shameless person in Xiling

Climbing a mountain without knowing one’s ability

Overcoming all difficulties to reach the summit

It’s easy to go up the mountain but hard to go down

Others use their hands and feet

But he insisted on adding a buttocks

He wore a hole in his pants

What do you think you should do about this?

Your knees are facing outward

Why did you expose your butt?

Don’t blame yourself for your inability

It’s also the fault of the long green mountain

Let’s do less of this from now on

Don’t go to the top of the mountain for shame
