Day 1: * * * Enjoy riding a bike 16 hours, visit Xingjiao Temple, Baita Temple and Nanwutai.
The next day: "an unexpected journey of 22 kilometers to and from 850 meters, Xiaoyu, started hiking."
Day 3: "Fast Rising 13km round trip 1090m, Jiawutai Scenic Area, presenting your first knee injury".
In order to have a global visual impact, the key locations in the three-day trip are marked as follows.
The next day, 20 17, 12, 3 1, thinking of the combination of riding 85 kilometers and 40,000 steps yesterday, I must have backache today, and I can't move, so I have to stay at home and rest. Who knows, when I wake up, I am nothing, so let's continue to find a place to torture ourselves today. I am very interested in Jiawutai Scenic Area, a scenic spot to the east of Cuihua Mountain. So, I packed my things, filled the convenience store downstairs with dry food and water, and set off.
According to the map navigation, after changing between bus and subway, you come to Quweinan subway station, then walk to the nearby Xizhai bus station and take bus No.4-19, and then take the bus all the way to Xiaoyukou bus station.
Walking out of the gate of Xiaoyukou bus station, there is a three-way intersection in front of you. How can I get there? Well, we can only rely on navigation. Turn on the navigation and take a few steps. Well, it looks like walking up the hill. Well, to save electricity, turn off the navigation. So, I strayed into the rainy mountain road and missed today's destination-Jiawutai Scenic Area. By the time I found I was going the wrong way, I had already walked a long way. If I go back to Jiawutai Scenic Area, I will definitely not have enough time to play, so I decided to make mistakes again and go all the way.
After starting from Xiaoyukou Bus Station, it crawled all the way up from north to south, passing 6 km of cement road+1.6 km of gravel road +3 km of barren hiking route, and accumulated crawling 10.57 km, increasing by 850 meters. This can be seen from the record chart when returning from the mountain below.
Sitting on the bus to Xiaoyukou bus station, I was amused by the "My 18 Years Old" photo exhibition in my circle of friends. For fun, I leafed through the photo albums of my mobile phone and suddenly found three photos saved to my mobile phone from Qzone not long ago. Although they are not me who just turned 18 years old, they are me in my twenties, which can represent the young time of 18 years old.
So, a message was sent in the circle of friends, which read, "Recalling classmates and teenagers, lush years, the past is gone forever ... In the era when there was no mobile phone with camera function, it was not easy to leave a timestamp." Indeed, at that time, we rarely had cameras, and mobile phones were almost all function machines. (Accidentally revealing his age) Haha, actually, I did it on purpose.
Three photos, three stages, one is a photo of standing alone at the bow of the Xiaobeijiang River with the student union in the university, the other is a photo of graduation photo in the university, and the other is a photo of the first league building in the first year of work. It used to be like this. Time is a butcher knife. Fortunately, I'm just fat and thin.
At noon 12, walk south from Xiaoyukou bus station, first a long and steep cement road, and then come to the dam of Xiaoyu Reservoir. Follow the steep cliff road next to the reservoir, turn left and right, and walk for a long time.
Suddenly, after a big bend, you can see the bright sun. Under the breeze, waves of light are created on the wide reservoir lake, from near to far, from dark to bright, like a three-dimensional landscape ink painting.
On the cliff road next to the reservoir, for the sake of driving safety, large convex mirrors will be set at many corners. It's interesting to take pictures in front of the mirror. Those passers-by are more interesting to watch me take pictures in front of the mirror and secretly laugh.
Go through the cliff road next to the reservoir and continue along the Xiaoyu River. On both sides of the road are tall or short village buildings, and some have become food stalls or barbecue stalls. Suddenly, suddenly, I saw several familiar figures, which looked like colleagues in the team.
Take a closer look, it's really oh, call them, and they responded to me in surprise when they bowed their heads and barbecued. So, I got the delicious roast chicken wings and kept going while eating. It is delicious. I know I need more works. ^_^
On both sides of the road, there are bare stone peaks. On the gentle side of the mountain, there are small bushes dotted among the mountains. In the cold winter, the whole mountain looks only grayish yellow and monotonous.
Several piles of sparkling ice were found in the middle of the river, with different shapes and characteristics. It's the first time I've seen such a landscape of southern children, and I'm surprised.
I walked along the Xiaoyu River for 2 hours, basically taking the village road, without a distinctive perspective. Boring, so boring. Although I have finished repairing the cement road, I am now stepping on the uneven and dusty gravel road, but the mountains on both sides are still dead gray and yellow, and there is nothing that can make me move.
Suddenly behind a big bend (yes, another bend, winding mountain road, many big or small bends), there is a gentle, open and scattered stone of different sizes, and there are towering dry reeds on the shore. Seeing this, I was very interested, so I went down to the river from the side, jumped over the protruding stones in the water and came to the other side of the river.
Where the river flows gently, a layer of transparent thin ice extends from the stone and shines on the water.
Facing the bright sunshine and looking through the dry reeds, it is full of softness. I like this scene very much, especially the scattered tail spikes of reeds shining in the sunlight, with distinct layers and clear structure.
Then, in the rubble pile on the river bank, several transparent objects were suddenly found. When I picked it up, it turned out to be a few thick ice cubes. There is no water nearby, and no water overflows. Where did you get the ice? It's weird. So, put them on the bluestone and shape them. Looking at the mottled bluestone through the ice is very beautiful. what do you think?
After being here, I feel much better, walk briskly and have a much better perspective.
In front of a village house, a green pine tree was found in the lifeless gray-yellow exposed mountain on the other side of the river, which was lonely and conspicuous, adding a little vitality to winter.
Farewell to the pine tree, not long after walking, I saw a dark blue stone tablet, a wooden bridge across the Xiaoyu River, and a valley gap on the other side of the river. When I walked in, the stone tablet read "Zhaigou Uprising Site of Central China Changzuo Working Committee" and related historical background introduction. Is it possible to get to Zhashui by going straight on this wooden bridge? !
Before thinking deeply, I was tempted by the clarity of the river under the single-plank bridge and the single-plank bridge. Crystal clear, I really want to get close to it and take a beautiful picture of Zhang Shuiping. Looking around, I can't see that I can go down to the low-lying place by the river, and the wooden bridge is estimated to be 3 meters high to the river, so the possibility of jumping safely is zero. Unfortunately, I have to give up.
Immediately, I was attracted by the ice pile by a pool on the other side of the river. A stream of water jumped out of the pool and hit the rocks on the shore. The spray jumped into the ice in the nearby bushes, forming various shapes, including round, long, flaky and blocky. The ice piles here are much more beautiful than those in the river just now. I like it.
Bypassing the pool, I saw an original wooden bridge with only a few logs across a small river. Looking back at the gravel road on the river bank, it looks boring. Since everyone has come to the other side of the river, you can log in to the valley here. The front looks interesting, but it is desolate, so you choose to move on and go as far as possible. But we must pay attention to safety, be more careful, observe more, and prevent in advance if there is danger.
Stepping on a fairly spacious dirt road and a messy and orderly slate road, I slowly moved forward. Although the road ahead is more desolate and the potential danger may be greater, the wild charm in front stimulates me to go deeper and find out. Why did you take so many pictures? It's not pretty! In fact, every time you go forward, you will have a visual impact when you look up or look back. These photos, one is to record those visual shocks, and the other is to give me some information to find the right way back.
On the way forward, some mountain scenery appeared in front of me from time to time, which stimulated me to continue my efforts. Beautiful scenery, I'm trying to get close to you. Stay in top shape.
Later, in the mountains, a spacious valley appeared, and village houses with dark yellow exterior walls were scattered in the valley. I wonder if anyone still lives there. So, when I visited the village, I didn't find any figure, but there were still some items left in front of the house or between the houses. I think time is still, fixed and silent at this moment. Looking at the door closed, there may be someone in it. ) oh, in retrospect, it seems that there are many pairs of eyes watching from behind the window. Ha ha laugh ......
After bidding farewell to the village, the road became narrower and blurred, as if being trampled less and less.
However, more and more mountains can be seen behind, and the farther away from the top of the mountain, the closer it is.
Passing by a pool, a pool with frozen water, it seems that time is frozen in the present. The frozen water and pool are generally not transparent, but milky white, in sharp contrast to the moss-covered stones scattered on both sides of the water. What a good landscape painting. If it is summer, is it another kind of beauty here? Expect.
Fallen leaves, covering the road, make the road more and more blurred, and you need to watch carefully to find it. After that, there was no dirt road, only a pile of rubble, which continued to extend upward without end. The pile is covered with thick fallen leaves, and there is no obvious trampled road, so we can only grope for a suitable route to climb on the pile.
The fallen leaves covering the stone are getting thicker and thicker, and the stone is getting looser and looser. You need to be very careful at every step to avoid slipping and falling, so that you can return safely.
Finally, it's almost four o'clock. I can't climb any more, and I still can't catch the last bus back to the city. Although the distance 200 meters ahead is a ravine, bright light keeps penetrating from there.
The first picture below is the landscape before the highest point of this climb, with great slope, thick leaves and loose stones. The second picture below shows the scenery behind the highest point of this climb. There are deep pits hidden under those thick leaves. If you accidentally step on them, it will be bleeding calf meat.
On the return trip, the clouds on the top of the mountain increased, and with the strong wind blowing, they presented various postures, attractive and graceful. Beautiful!
Go back to the village in the spacious valley, find a stream in it, wash your hands and cheeks and have a rest. The clear and cold stream washed away the fatigue all the way. Refresh one's mind
Near Zhaigoukou, there are many pine trees scattered on the road, which have a good posture and guide the road forward. Walk out of Zhaigoukou, cross Xiaoyuhe wooden bridge, stand by and watch the stone tablet, and give Zhaigoukou a close-up as a souvenir.
In particular, I took a close-up of the crutches I found. I found it behind Zhaigoukou, and it accompanied me all the way. Finally, put it back where I found it and leave it to the next lucky one.
Back to Xiaoyu Reservoir, it's past six o'clock, and a full moon is slowly emerging from the hills in the east. In the dark valley, in the soft moonlight, I saw the faint cliff road, extending forward. Next to it, the moonlight shone down from the ravine, fell on the lake of the reservoir, and scattered away, with an indescribable charm coming to my mind and constantly impacting. Not much to say, hurry on and savor.
When I arrived at Xiaoyukou bus station, I found that there was another last bus, which didn't leave until ten minutes later. How lucky. Otherwise, I'll spend the night in Xiaoyu tonight.
While waiting for the bus to leave, I strolled in the bus stop and was very interested in the full moon above Xiaoyukou Mountain, so I found several perspectives to freeze it. At 6: 30, the last bus leaves and returns to Wei Qunan.
