China Naming Network - Eight-character fortune telling - I don’t know much about Chengdu (Part 3·Final Chapter)

I don’t know much about Chengdu (Part 3·Final Chapter)

After meeting up with old photojournalist Mr. Chen, we took the high-speed train from Chengdu to Qingcheng Mountain. As a "martial arts fan", Qingchengshan has long known it by heart. The most famous ones are the Qingcheng faction and Yu Canghai in "The Swordsman", but they just appear as villains. In the real world, Qingcheng Mountain is known as the fifth most famous mountain in the world and a Taoist holy land in the past.

So, this time I came here because of the reputation. It was already dusk when we arrived at the foot of Qingcheng Mountain. We stayed at a farm inn and listened to the gurgling spring water late at night, feeling very quiet and peaceful. The next day, I got up and climbed the mountain before dawn, but there were many pedestrians on the road.

However, the nasty rain started falling at an untimely time, and we shivered in the cold wind and rain, cursing the weather. It was so cold and we couldn’t see any good scenery. On the path to Yuezhen Lake, I asked the aunt who was cleaning the fallen leaves when the sun would rise. She calmly replied: God has his way. Being in a Taoist holy land, everything we said was so full of Lao-Zhuang philosophy that the three of us seemed impatient and tacky.

The mountain air was already cold, and coupled with the drizzle, it was really painful. Our hands were all red from the cold, and our whole bodies were shaking as we walked. I joked with Teacher Chen that Qingcheng Mountain’s fairy spirit is too strong for us mortals to bear. However, when we walked to Yuezhen Lake, we immediately exclaimed, this rain is so wonderful! Without rain, perhaps there would be no empty morning scenery, which is a bit virtual and a bit real. This is the beauty and surprise that clear scenery can never bring us.

Teacher Chen was so excited that he forgot about Leng Yu’s abuse. He immediately took out 30 kilograms of equipment, set up a tripod, and got busy. Teacher Chen’s photography age is longer than my time in this world. Along the way, he shared many stories and photography tips with us. At the top of the mountain, he leaned over to look at the trees below the cliff, and I persuaded him to come back. He said that real photographers will travel thousands of miles to take a good photo, and they don't care about the dangers at their feet. They spend their lives playing photography.

In this rainy weather, it would be a beautiful thing to look forward to if we could order a cup of coffee, sit face to face and chat about our next travel plan, right? Of course, the coffee must be hot. Although my heart is warm from traveling, my hands and stomach still reflect the cold weather. This row of tables was placed in front of the Tai Chi Museum, and we later emptied them for better photography. Sichuan people are very warm-hearted and tolerant. Instead of stopping us from messing around, they helped us move tables and stools.

Continuing forward, I saw this stone, which flew from somewhere during the Wenchuan earthquake. Qingcheng Mountain was greatly affected by the earthquake, and many of the stones were from outside. It became the relics of the 5.12 earthquake. The branches or sticks under the stone that are supported on the stone are called "leg support", which means that when you are tired from climbing the mountain, you can restore your strength by supporting a stick under the stone.

Finally arrived at the famous scenic spot Shangqing Palace. On both sides of the Shangqing Palace are ginkgo trees, the pandas of the plant world. The strong and majestic ginkgo tree perfectly matches the tranquility and solemnity of Shangqing Palace.

The leaves of Ginkgo are fan-shaped, serrated on the outside, and naturally split in the middle, which makes them look less monotonous.

Taoist priests are also part of the interior of Shangqing Palace, but they are mobile. Every day, they stand like this, looking at the sky and watching the tourists coming up one after another. I don’t know if they want to continue to stand in this place after waking up and continue to look at the sky and another group of tourists.

Mountains, climb higher and higher. Standing on the edge of the cliff and looking out, I saw mist filling the sky and the earth. It turns out that this is the sea of ​​fog and clouds, and the meaning of Tao is getting stronger and stronger. There is a cliff at your feet, but you can't see it. All you can see is huge white.

With thick fog as the background, any shot can produce the effect of an ink painting.

Finally we reached the highest point, Laojun Pavilion. Laojun Pavilion is located at the top of the first peak of Qingcheng Mountain, namely Pengzu Peak, with an altitude of 1,260 meters. Peng Zu, the old man who is said to have lived for more than 800 years. The statue in Laojun Pavilion is based on Xu Beihong's posthumous work "Purple Air Coming from the East" in Qingcheng. The hazy smoke in the pavilion gives it a unique fairyland illusion. On a clear day, from the top of the pavilion, you can overlook hundreds of kilometers of Minqiong Qing'e scenery and the beautiful scenery of Tianfu Pingchuan.

The most beautiful scenery is on dangerous peaks, at least in my opinion, this is what the top of Pengzu Peak looks like. The word "danger" refers to both steepness and height. The fog at Pengzuding is extremely thick, and the trees on the cliff are even more amazing.

The three of us ran around on the top of the pavilion to take pictures and stayed longer than many tourists. However, the weather was cold and the fog was heavy, so we couldn’t see much of the scenery, so we went down the mountain early.

It took two and a half hours to go down the mountain, and people who asked for directions did not dare to go up after hearing this. On the way down the mountain, I met people who were doing this kind of work. Their nature was a bit like a mountain lifter. It’s just that the mountain carriers are carrying objects, and they are carrying people. What is this kind of profession called? I asked it at first, but now I have forgotten it. Their job is to use a tool to lift a person who doesn't want to climb the mountain with his feet, and they charge according to the section.

"We worship the water of Dujiangyan and ask about Qingcheng Mountain." After climbing Qingcheng Mountain, we headed straight to Dujiangyan without stopping. We have long wanted to see the great achievements of Li Bing and his son. Dujiangyan is located on the Minjiang River in the west of the Chengdu Plain. It is a famous water conservancy project in ancient China and a scenic spot. Nearby are Nanqiao, Lidui Park, Erwang Temple and Anlan Cable Bridge.

This road is called Xingfu Road, and there are plane trees planted on both sides of the street. During the Wenchuan earthquake, Dujiangyan was also the hardest hit area.

This street was rebuilt after the earthquake, and the symbol of "happiness" is obvious.

The South Bridge under the night view is very gorgeous and spectacular, with brilliant light and dazzling eyes!

Night scene, Dujiangyan illuminated by lights, the turbulent blue light rushes away, the years flow away bit by bit, and one day they will eventually dry up. As the saying goes, a beautiful family is like a flower, and the years are fleeting. Youth cannot last forever. We were filled with emotions in a strange city.

A very interesting thing happened while filming Dujiangyan. I wanted to take pictures of Dujiangyan and Nanqiao from a different angle, so I chose the gap between the bridges as the frame, and placed Dujiangyan and Nanqiao in the distance inside. At this time, I had to lie down and get close to the bridge to take pictures. However, the people around me were very curious and didn't know what I was doing, so they came over to watch. Every time I lie down, there will be a few people standing behind me and watching. One boy sincerely asked me to analyze the reasons for choosing this angle to shoot. Does it count as a reason if he is messing around?

It was almost 10 o'clock after drinking a large bowl of tea at the Sichuan Teahouse on the water of Dujiangyan. The night scene was hard to come by, and no matter how tired I was, I couldn't bear to go back to rest, so I toiled on the deserted streets until 12 o'clock before finishing the work.

The next day, we visited Lidui Park. View of Dujiangyan from Lidui Park.

This is Li Bing’s concept of water control: the six words at the beginning, “Water deep in the beach and build weirs low” are very classic.

Everyone who walks here will stand in front of it, close their eyes and walk over to see if they can reach out and touch the word "heart". After touching it for several years, my "heart" is almost gone.

After visiting Lidui Park and Erwang Temple, we drove to Chengdu Railway Station, said goodbye to Teacher Chen, and took a bus with Brother Chang to Kunming and then transferred to Lijiang.

Chengdu, Qingcheng Mountain, Dujiangyan, this is the final chapter of my five-day trip to Sichuan. Some things have ended and some are still going on. People go to a place and then leave it. Although the two are no longer related in each current time, the mutual integration in the past has had an internal impact on people and the city. Time and scenery have changed the mood and thoughts of travelers, but the deepest feelings remain unchanged. This is the journey, this is the traveler. I am related to you because I once walked into your world.

On the train from Chengdu to Kunming, I couldn’t sleep all night. I sat in front of a young and beautiful girl T, chatted with her all night, and wrote this sentence: Whether you are traveling or not, it is a terrible thing to be alone alone. Being quiet means that you have to face the whole world alone, especially when there is a gap between the two lives.

Later, while chewing gum, I added: "Traveling is like having sex. The first night is trying, and then you are eager to experience it again and again. If you still ask me what romance is, accidental romance is, for example, walking Just go. We don’t need to crave a rose every day, light candles when eating, or lay out a red carpet when walking. It can make you feel that this trip is different from the past, that is, joy or romance.
