The south slope of Guishan Mountain in Hanyang is a treasure trove of geomantic omen.

Liu Yuxi, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, famously said in My Humble Room: "The mountain is not high, but the fairy is famous; The water is not deep, and the dragon has spirit. " The "mountain" and "water" mentioned by the poet actually refer to an extremely simple "home", which is famous for its noble character. However, riding Longwan attracts thousands of tourists because of its "dragon" and "fairy".

? Qilongwan Scenic Area is located in the southwest of Lizhai Township, and the name of Lizhai is related to Li Shimin of Emperor Taizong. Legend has it that Li Shimin used to drive to Luzhou, and he rode around when he had nothing to do. I once came to the southwest of Zezhou by accident, and found that it was a treasure trove of geomantic omen, so I sent someone to build a house and a village here and named it "Lizhai". At this time, it was midsummer, and he came to the bank of the Qinshui River and stayed overnight. Later, people called this place where the real Dragon Emperor lived "Riding Dragon Village".

? My hometown is less than three kilometers from Qilong Village. When I was very young, I heard my grandparents tell the story of Nine Girls in Sendai: there is a temple on a big stone in Qinhe River, where nine fairies of the Queen Mother live. Eight of them are the biological daughters of the Queen Mother, and the other is the goddaughter adopted by the Queen Mother. Eight biological daughters have no feelings for their goddaughter and always look at her with jealousy. ...

? Grandparents also told stories such as "Nine Fairys Slaughter Demons" and "Little Black Dragon Marries a Wife". I grew up listening to these fairy tales, and I had many wishes for a visit to Sendai by nine girls in the past, but I failed to do so because the temple was in disrepair. At the end of 1970s, Jincheng municipal government built a hydropower station in Duhe River to store water and build lakes. In addition, in recent years, the Imperial City Xiangfu Scenic Area and Qilongwan Scenic Area have been developed one after another, and I have a glimpse of it.

? The day I went was in hot summer, the sun was shining and I was sweating. Fortunately, there is a west wind blowing by the river, which brings a little coolness to people's faces. The once potholed dirt road along Dajing, Yehe and Yellow River has become a wide and flat first-class cement road. A solid protective mound has been built on the back slope of the mountain, and a square stone pile like a city wall has been built along the road. Between the ravines, the peaks stand tall, the rocks are rugged, and a jade belt-like river meanders along the deep ditch under the road rock. On the hillside and in the ravine, trees shade the sun, flowers are blooming, and all kinds of birds fly around heartily, showing off their crisp voices calling for friends; Countless squirrels and rabbits are jumping between grotesque rocks and strewn at random trees. Terraces only as wide as rakes, like petals of straw hats woven from wheat and orange stalks, are wrapped around hills of different heights. The road yard is made of grotesque small stones of different sizes, like the soles made by an old woman, neat, seamless and neat. The infinite scenery created in heaven is like a fascinating picture, which is dizzying.

? The car stopped in front of Qilong Village. Looking up, in the dense forest, one or two lonely yards hung halfway up the mountain. This is a forgotten ancient village. Back to the mountain, facing the fairy lake, like an old lady sitting in a cane chair in a half circle.

? There are three families living in the yard, two surnamed Wang Zhang. In recent years, young people have gone to cities to work, buy houses and get married. There are several old people guarding the vicissitudes of the ancient house, living by the mountain and keeping company with the water all day, telling tourists fairy tales handed down from generation to generation.

? Like many places, since the village came into being, dragon riders have pinned their fate on the "temple" and the TOEFL on the "god". So I built a temple statue to offer sacrifices and pray for blessing, hoping that the weather would be good and the population would flourish.

? Opposite Qilong Village is a short dome like a turtle. People call it "Kameyama Mountain". There is a dragon riding temple on Guishan Mountain, which has been renovated in recent years.

? I followed the path in front of the village and went straight to Guishan.

? The gate of Qilong Temple faces east, and there are three stone tablets on each side of the gate. As can be seen from the vague inscription, Qilong Temple was built in the Song Dynasty and has been repaired throughout the ages. It can be inferred that Qilong Village started before the Song Dynasty and has a history of thousands of years.

? The newly built temple is a courtyard, with a dance building, a worship pavilion, a back hall, an attached hall, a wing and a watchtower on the central axis. The Lord regards God as the Dragon King. There are murals on three sides of the main hall, depicting the stories of Duke Lei and Dragon King Palace, which is of great value to the study of ancient culture.

? Walking out of Qilong Temple, you can see the legendary mysterious Black Dragon Pool at a glance. Black Dragon Pool is located under a stone cliff on the right side of the steps outside the Temple Gate. Surrounded by natural rocks, it looks like a big urn. The color of the pool is like indigo, and the pool is unfathomable. It is said that it is connected with the East China Sea, and the little black dragon, the fourth son of the East China Sea Dragon King, lives here, and is called the "sea eye". According to the old people, the pool water is living water, which has never dried up in the years of severe drought. In ancient times, people from 72 villages along the river in Jinyang County came here every year to pray for rain.

There is a folk myth that the Dragon King of the East China Sea once lived in Xinbi, Donggou Town. There is a well in the village, and a beautiful woman often comes here to fetch water. The Dragon King took a fancy to her and married her. When the woman got married, the family married 12 mu and divided the field into 3 parts. Later, after the Longwang couple moved to Qilong Village, the parents' Xinbi people came to Heilongtan to pray for rain every year, which was very effective every time. There is a "rain-praying induction monument" erected in Qilong Temple, which reads "After praying for rain, it rained for three days and three nights, and hundreds of miles around it were dripping", expressing Xin Pi's deep gratitude to the East China Sea Dragon King and his son Little Black Dragon.

? Black Dragon Pool is naturally a must-see place for tourists, and ancient literati often recite poems and compose poems here. Chen Tingjing, an important official of Kangxi in Qing Dynasty and a great scholar of Wenyuange, came here at this time and turned around the Black Dragon Pool several times. Because he felt its magic, he praised poetry:

? "There is a huge gap at the summit, which opens the meaning of He Xiong. The stone mouth is dark and the heart is red. People say it's the eye of the sea, and the dragon palace is sent from the sky. Vientiane is in the sky, and the clouds are steaming. "

? Chen Tingjing was about to leave when he suddenly saw a dark horse jumping out of the pool, kneeling beside him with a brush in his mouth and staring at him with tears in his eyes. Chen Tingjing immediately patted the horse's head and said, "Get up! I swam over mountains, swam over water and recited poems, but I didn't leave you anything. I am really sorry! " Say, take down the brush from the black horse's mouth, let people take the pool water to grind ink, and then look at a stone wall by the pool to write. Who knows, I tried several times, but I couldn't find the stone wall. The dark horse nodded to Chen Tingjing and jumped into the pool. To their surprise, the cliff "rumbled" down, and the stone under their feet "creaked" up again, impartial, and the cliff fell right on Chen Tingjing's chest. Chen Tingjing knew that this was the little black dragon's kindness to Rowen, so he dipped in thick ink and quietly wrote down the four characters of "Dragon Cave House". As soon as I finished writing, the cliff slowly rose and returned to its original place. Until now, the four big characters are still clearly visible.

? There is a "Yellow Dragon Pool" under the Black Dragon Pool and a "Niangniang Cave" in the mountains. There was an attic in ancient times, but now only the foundation is left. It is said that Niangniang Cave communicates with a small hole on the south mountain of Yugou, Caodui Village, Runcheng Town, Yangcheng. The fire is lit at one end and the smoke is at the other. It's very spectacular. There is also a cave on the hill opposite Niangniang Cave, which can accommodate thousands of people. It is said that these two caves were pierced by sharp poles when Erlang Mountain was catching the sun.

? Leaving the Black Dragon Pool and walking on the rugged mountain road, there are nine peaks in front of you. In the local belief, "nine" is an auspicious number: the sky weighs nine, and the daughter is taken back by her family after living for nine days after marriage, which is called "knot nine". There are nine fairies in Sendai, and there are just nine continuous peaks, which are called "Nine Female Peaks". In the 1.5km long ravine, the "Nine Female Peaks" are lined up, and danger, strangeness and beauty are integrated. The mountains are like Shui Rou, which is a beautiful picture on earth.

? Although summer by the lake is not as hot as that at the top of the mountain, the sun is too strong after all. In order to enjoy the cool, I walked down the steps and came to Jiunvxian Lake.

? The nine immortals are about ten miles long in the north of Hunan. As a result, a Qinshui River, like the Milky Way in the sky, separates Jinyang from other places across the river. It is the dam of Du He Power Station that gathers here to form a high gorge Pinghu with an area of about 13 square kilometers, creating a beautiful bay where the Qianliqin River flows into the Yellow River, and also allowing people from Jinyang and Sendai to meet and live in harmony.

? You will never get tired of seeing summer in the mountains. The sky is blue as a wash, surrounded by peaks, and Jiunv Lake is like a green emerald embedded in the mountains. The green hills on both sides of the river are reflected in the lake, as if the nine-day fairy were dressing up. The breeze blew, and the lake was covered with layers of tiny ripples, wrinkled and shiny, so neat between layers, and the rising speed was so symmetrical, as if it were carefully designed by hand.

? Jiunv Lake is equipped with boats and boating. Anyone who comes to play must go boating on the blue waves, appreciate the changes of peaks on both sides of the strait and feel the spray splashing in the lake. I sat on a yacht at will, and when I sat firmly, the yacht sailed into the lake. The blue waves rippled on the lake and immediately splashed. When I was a child, I heard myths and legends about nine women who came down to earth and played in the river, and they came to my mind from time to time, feeling that they had drifted into a fairyland. Suddenly, the yacht sped up and my heart rose to the sky. Gradually, the cruise ship changed from fast to slow, and then from slow to fast. One moment the cliff confronted each other, and the other got into the cave. The scene of "people swimming in the picture scroll and painting in the water" makes people seem to be watching a thrilling 3D movie.

? While experiencing the romance I have never had in my life, I greedily sucked the fragrance floating from the lake. Suddenly, a flute interrupted my dream. Looking up, a train braved the light smoke, whistled from the cave in the east, sped on the Houyue Railway Bridge in mid-air, and suddenly got into the cave in the west.

? After getting off the yacht, I boarded the sidewalk of Jiuguniang Sendai. The sidewalk consists of 40 steps, which is called "all the best", that is, if you climb these steps, everything will be smooth. Who doesn't have this vision for people who come here to play? On the stone wall on the east side of the sidewalk, there are three characters of "Fenshi" written by Xiao Yun, the founder of Sendai. Guess what it means. This huge stone was made at the time of creation and is a gift from God.

? In fact, "Jiuguniang Sendai" is an isolated island in the water formed when two waters meet. The ancients thought that this strange phenomenon could only be done by immortals, so they built the "Nine Days Xuan Nv" Hall on the stage, also known as "Nine Women Sendai".

Nine women Sendai covers an area of 440 square meters. It is said that there are 108 original houses and halls, representing 108 counties in Shanxi, but its founding date can no longer be elegant. According to the memories of the local elderly, the original stone tablets were all reconstructed stone tablets, and the buildings on the stage were razed to the ground in the 1960s, leaving only the remains. According to the inscription of Qilong Temple in Guishan, on March 18th, the eighteenth year of Chenghua in Ming Dynasty, the river suddenly rose, and the water level rose to seven steps above the gate of Jiunv Zhong Yi Temple in Sendai, and now it is two-thirds of the river. At that time, people grabbed a knife and carved a stone here, saying, "In the eighteenth year of Chenghua, the river was here." It is said that after the heavy rain, the river did not fall for a long time, and a monk who lived in the "Nine Days Xuan Nv" temple starved to death under the siege of the flood. Later generations made a bone-wrapped statue for him.

Jiuguniang Sendai not only has a long history, but also has beautiful natural and cultural landscapes. Fan Ceng in Ming Dynasty and Song Dynasty wrote a poem: "Taihang Mountain has many places of interest, especially. Independent of the mountains, only one path is quiet. The cloud room is extremely full, and the eaves are slippery. Pass on the nine fairies and top the lamp. " The small and exquisite Nine Immortals Hall is built around the platform. From a distance, the river is like a dragon and the platform is like a crouching tiger. It is like a natural bonsai, in the faint green mountains and waters. Close-up, pavilions are towering, cloisters are winding, red columns, yellow glazed tiles and silver-gray walls are reflected on the water. Water depends on Taiwan to convey the spirit, and Taiwan depends on water to become a landscape. It can really be described as "a stone in the middle stream, nine years in Sendai".

Jiuxian Palace is built on the south side, and there is a big clock at the entrance, with a diameter of more than one meter. The pavilions are small and exquisite, but there is no sense of oppression. Jade carving on the carved fence is exquisite and elegant. In the quaint two-meter wide hall, there are carved beams and painted buildings with rich colors. The statues are neat and orderly, and the craftsmanship is extraordinary. In particular, ten female sculptures are lifelike. The statue of mother is in the center. Eight women all face to one side. The only woman is looking at her mother. They all have fair skin, peach-blossom faces, pale eyebrows, red lips and white teeth, graceful figure and touching style. ......

Shangdang is one of the birthplaces of the Chinese nation. From the Yellow Emperor to Dayu to control water, beautiful mountains and rivers, immortals flying, leaving many beautiful legends. The story of the nine-day fairy is even better. According to legend, the Jade Emperor sent Xuan Nv here for nine days to build a temple to practice. After the task was completed, Xuan Nv missed the beautiful scenery of the Qinhe River and refused to return to the palace under orders, which provoked the Jade Emperor to be furious and sent her to Jiu Feng to take charge of the Qinhe River. From then on, the fairy who fell in love with the world without thinking about justice has always been the protector on both sides of the Qinhe River. Later, because she helped the poor, people appreciated her merits and set up a shrine on the stone peak of Qinhe River.

? In fact, the nine women in Sendai are well known and have been recorded for a long time. Li Daoyuan, a famous geographer in the Northern Wei Dynasty in China, clearly wrote in the Notes on Water Classics: "Qinshui is in the southeast, Yang A Shui enters Yan on the left, water reaches Yang A Dong in the north and flows to Wu Bi Pavilion in the south." The word "Qinshui" in the article is the Qinhe River in Shanxi. "Yang Ashui" is a long river in Jincheng, and "Yang Achuan" refers to the junction of Zezhou and Yangcheng counties. The Qinhe River and the long river meet here, and the Water Mirror Note describes it as "the wave along the water, the stream collapses a hundred feet, bypasses the hub and flows into Qinshui in the south." At the same time, he also said: "The cliffs on both sides of the strait stand upright, the mountains are steep, the running water is drying, the water and rocks are exciting, and the sound is like thunder. I will enter the Qin Dynasty and call the nine women's stations." This passage not only vividly describes the strange landscape when the Qinhe River and the Changhe River meet here, but also brings out a legendary "Nine Women's Terrace". Chen Tingjing, a great scholar in Wenyuan Pavilion in Qing Dynasty, lived in Zhongdaozhuang, next to Wu Bi Pavilion, only a few miles away from Nine Girls in Sendai. Because of its steep terrain and beautiful scenery, Chen Tingjing often comes here to play.

? It is said that when Chen Tingjing returned to his hometown to attend his father's funeral in the autumn of his third year as a Beijing official, he and his family came to Jiunvxian Lake. At this time, it is late autumn, and the lake of Jiunvxian is colorful, and the red leaves of the mountains set off Hu Xian, just like a fairyland. Chen Tingjing not sing a way:

"The red leaves are deep red and light red, the drizzle is as thick as spring, the mulberry leaves are half withered and yellow, and so are the villages in Li Sanhe and Wuli. The path turns into a stream and sighs wonderfully, and Qian Shan is exquisite. Who makes Iwatani good at different colors is purely performing magic with gold and silver. "

? While I was chewing Chen Tingjing's wonderful poems, I witnessed the picturesque scenery of Jiunvxian Lake, and I had a feeling of walking on clouds, which was real and illusory. I can't help but admire the wonder of nature and the unique design and exquisite craftsmanship of the builders.

? Walking out of Jiuxian Temple and overlooking the surrounding Huxian Lake, beautiful legends paint nature with mysterious colors. A group of gray pigeons sometimes fly to Sendai, and sometimes dive on the mirror-like lake, as if dating a fairy for nine days and playing in the lake, adding a little interest to the mythical Longwan.

? After eating a light meal at the scenic spot stall, I came to the newly developed glass plank road.

? The glass plank road is a steel cable glass frame bridge suspended in the air, about 100 meters away and 5 stories high. The bridge body is made of transparent material, which blends in with the surrounding beautiful scenery. It is the only challenging amusement project in Shanxi Province at present.

? I stood on the bridge and watched the tourists walking on the clear water bridge deck. I couldn't help laughing: some people who stepped on the glass bridge exclaimed, some were treading on thin ice, some held back, and some were so scared that they squatted there and cried ... After crossing the bridge, it was a "ladder" made of welded iron plates, and the slope of 70-80 degrees was like rolling in the deep. Of course, there are many young men and women who are bolder than the sky, smiling and holding hands, walking side by side through the long glass plank road; There are also some couples snuggling together, hanging on the glass plank road in the air and taking pictures of picturesque romance. This situation is really enviable!

? For this reason, the designer gave the glass suspension bridge a poetic name-"True Love Bridge". At the other end of the bridge, there is also a specially built "love platform". This very exciting name attracted couples of men and women, eager to try, very much in love. On the "True Love Bridge", in front of the "Love Platform", in an extremely romantic atmosphere, we vowed to be together for life and played the "True Love Bridge" to a new height.

? I set foot on the transparent bridge deck carefully and tried to stand alone in the middle of the glass plank road, which felt like walking in the air. Whether it is the blue sky in Wan Li or the blue waves under the suspension bridge; Whether it is the endless green hills around me or the nine women in Sendai, I dare not face it stupidly. Until I walked off the glass suspension bridge, my mind was still smoky, dizzy and in a trance. I am reminded of the story of "Qixi Oath" between Emperor Xuanzong of Tang Dynasty and Yang Guifei. ...

? /kloc-On the night of Chinese Valentine's Day 0/400 years ago, the romantic Tang Dynasty emperor Li Longji and his beloved princess Yang Yuhuan came to Qilongwan and performed a love story that was never sung again. Yang Guifei and Tang are here to pledge allegiance. On the Milky Way, the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl also witnessed the sweetness of their love. Bai Juyi, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, once wrote a Song of Eternal Sorrow. Yang Yuhuan's "but God-given grace, unabashed, was finally elected as the royal family one day" made Tang Xuanzong "but the night in spring was very short, and the sun rose too fast. Since then, the emperor has given up his early hearing". Later, the vows of eternal love, happy time, because of a riot in the Tang Palace, turned into a mirror. ......

? Being in the holy land of love between Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty and Yang Guifei, I seem to see flowers, smell colorful flowers, hear the farewell of violins and enter the dream of "asking for wine from heaven" ......

? The eternal songs of eternal sorrow are full of thoughts. Because of the "An Shi Rebellion", "the people in the army stopped, and no one would move until they were under their hooves, and they might trample on those moths. "The giant hand is gone forever, and the two have been embarrassed since then." The emperor couldn't save her, so he had to cover his face. Later, when he turned to look, there was blood and tears. "A generation of talents is beautiful, and those who are beautiful are unlucky. True love will eventually become a swan song, "everlasting, everlasting;" One day both will end, and this endless sadness will last forever. " ......

? What a pity!

four

? Leave the glass suspension bridge and come to climbing wall, Frada.

? It is said that rock climbing in Ferrada is an outdoor sport that originated in Italy. With the help of fixed cables and iron handrails, ordinary people can climb unique and steep cliffs along the climbing path. The peaks around Qilongwan stand on the wall, and the mountain is steep. The designer cleverly set up the Ferrada climbing wall here, providing a playground for tourists to experience thrills.

? I don't have the courage to try. I just stood there and stared at the scene where the soldiers climbed over.

? The climbing wall, which is tens of meters high, is equipped with rock climbing fulcrums of different colors and sizes. Several young boys and girls climbed from bottom to top with their hands and feet under the protection of safety ropes and knee pads. When one or two older scholars climbed to two-thirds of the height, they were already sweating like a pig, and seemed to have the idea of stopping for a while, but the onlookers "come on! Come on! " Shouting, also dare not show cowardice, just get up the courage to get up very hard step by step. Those athletes who have reached the top boldly grabbed the rope and slipped down quickly. When they stood firmly on the ground, the fatigue and tension of climbing seemed to disappear a lot. They hushed and gasped, while watching climbing wall, dancing and telling the true feelings when climbing.

? I secretly admire the designer's originality. Young people nowadays are open-minded and bohemian. Both men and women like to fly their hearts and challenge their limits in thrilling rock climbing, and they are more willing to be strong and feel romantic in the competition with cliffs.

? If Qilongwan is a scenic spot surrounded by mountains and waters, and Nine Girls Sendai is a fairy shrine that has been told for ages, then the climbing wall of Feida can really be regarded as a delightful paradise in Eden. "When you cut a cloud, a stream and a moon, a landscape will last for a year." The interest of life is not only to enjoy the scenery, but also to relax the mind, fight the wind and waves and challenge the limits.

? Time is flowing in the hustle and bustle of Qilongwan Scenic Area, and it is near dusk. I hurried on the return bus, but my eyes looked back from time to time. It's a little reluctant to go:

? Towering mountains, tender and lingering water, ancient quadrangles hanging halfway up the mountain, and a few kind and simple old people ... They are people who never leave, unwilling to be lonely, guarding the mountains day after day, witnessing the ancient Qilongwan, witnessing the things that have changed from generation to generation, and witnessing countless fairy tales circulating among tourists like the tide.
