fresh and refined
I never thought that Enshi, which is more than 600 kilometers away from Xianning, would break into my memory with a gesture. From Mubu Mountain in the south of Hubei to Wuling Mountain in the southwest of Hubei, there are many mountains as soon as we pass Yichang. First, the half-high mountain, then the winding mountain, one mountain after another. In the mountains of the garage, there is green everywhere, but one tunnel after another brings ignorance into your mind. Outside the window, there are mountains and cliffs. Wuling mountain system, the water is less feminine and the mountains are more rigid.
Enshi is not a famous historical city, but it also has a long history. From the territory of Pakistan in the Spring and Autumn Period, the territory of Wu Chu County in the Warring States Period, the jurisdiction of Tusi in the Yuan, Ming and Qing Dynasties, to Enshi Tujia and Miao Autonomous Prefecture in 1993, Enshi has gone through more than two thousand years of ups and downs. After more than two thousand years of wind and rain, this ancient stone island with eight mountains, one water and one field is like a beautiful family bred in the inner room, and no one knows her. Once the mysterious veil is lifted, it will be colorful and charming.
Enshi is very beautiful, the beauty lies in the scenery, and the beauty lies in people.
Shu lai Xiang feng no.1 high school
Arriving in Phoenix is the second day to Enshi. Laifeng is more than 30 kilometers away from Enshi/KLOC-0, connecting Youyang in the west and Longshan in the east. Because it is close to Longshan County, it has formed a unique spectacle of two counties separated by a water and two provinces connected by a bridge. In this magical and affectionate land, Laifeng No.1 Middle School is about to celebrate its 80th birthday.
Laifeng No.1 Middle School is located in Education New Town. Although it was 15 that moved to the new campus, the trees in the school are lush and lush. Secretary Hu, a colleague of the Communist Youth League Committee, told us that 70% of the greening trees in the new campus were donated by various units in counties and states, and the rest were donated by former alumni. The school is funded by the government and built according to the specifications of the university, so it has complete facilities and beautiful environment. Suddenly understand that Liang Qichao's "On young chinese" said that "youth is prosperous, then China is prosperous; The deep meaning of "young people are strong, then China is strong", giving priority to the development of education and giving the best resources to young people. Why should Laifeng No.1 Middle School worry about glory? Why do you worry about the future when you come to Phoenix?
Strolling through the campus of No.1 Middle School is in class time. In the teaching building, the sound of books is loud and clear, and modern teaching equipment has opened a door of knowledge for mountain teenagers in the changing light and shadow. The teaching area, next to Xinhua Gezhi Bookstore, is an elaborate "teacher's book bar". In a book bar that is not too wide, the bookcase stands against the wall, and all kinds of books in the bookcase are dazzling. In the teacher's reading area, desks are arranged orderly, and mini green plants and desk lamps are side by side, elegant and exquisite.
The editor-in-chief of Laifeng No.1 Middle School newspaper is Chen, a young teacher in his early thirties. We didn't meet because Mr. Chen was in class. However, we were fortunate enough to have a discussion with the Communist Youth League Committee responsible for the work of the school newspaper and the relevant leaders of the school office. The newspaper in Laifeng No.1 Middle School is mainly run by the Youth League Committee and the school office, and it was published in January. The first edition focuses on campus news, the second edition focuses on campus life, which comprehensively introduces and reports school life. The third edition follows the academic situation and formulates special topics, such as campus safety and independent enrollment. The fourth edition is a supplement, which mainly publishes students' exercises and provides a stage for students to show themselves. All parts of the school have clear responsibilities and rights, and are responsible for providing news articles this month. In addition, all grades and preparation groups actively participate.
But what impressed me the most was the school magazine Song Jian, which is also the name of Laifeng No.1 Middle School Literature Society. According to Director Gan, the whole school magazine is assembled, selected and edited by the students themselves, and finally handed over to the relevant printing company for design and typesetting. As for the quality control of the manuscript of the school magazine, the group composed of the backbone of the literary society will discuss and decide on its own, and the relevant responsible teachers will only give guidance.
Open "Song Jian", the book is overflowing. Or write about the feeling of wandering in the temple of knowledge, or write about the confusion of youth, sometimes simply come to a few new poems, and sometimes illustrate the photos taken by students ... with rich and colorful contents. This school magazine, written by the students themselves, deeply shocked me. What makes people shocked is not only the heavy words, but also the mother heart of the school caring for teenagers' dreams.
Suddenly I think of Jiugong Literature Society, a literary society that has been interrupted for many years, and I can't help but feel deeply when I think of the difficulty of soliciting contributions for the school newspaper.
As editors, we still have a lot to think and learn and a long way to go.
Drunk beauty
I met my daughter city in the drizzle.
Strolling through the "ancient road" paved with bluestone, it is drizzling. Less tourists are like clouds, more quiet and comfortable. At the beginning of Deng Hua, strings of red lanterns hung high on the eaves. Bougainvillea bougainvillea is in full bloom in front of the house, and the copper coins are so green. A long road, covered with heavy green slate, splashed in the water and reflected the lights; In the distance, there are clouds all over the mountains.
An ancient city, graceful.
The tour guide said that when you come to Daughter City, you must take advantage of the good weather. On the colorful and antique streets in the sky, Tujia brothers and sisters are singing and dancing, and tourists are bustling and lively. On major festivals, there are large-scale performances.
Busy is not bad, but the lonely daughter city is more like a girl in a boudoir, simple, quiet and full of amorous feelings. I prefer to find the memory of a city in tranquility and the taste of a city in drizzle: this one has no taste.
In Daughter City, a statue stands on a Little Square. Four sturdy Tujia men, holding drums high, with dark skin and bulging muscles, looked calm and firm. Tingting girl, standing on the drum, dancing, handsome and smart. She held her hand high, as if calling for wind and rain, and as if praying for the peace of heaven.
Strolling through the daughter city, antique buildings echo the diaojiao building from a distance. Although it is rainy, the noise in the restaurant is in sharp contrast with the loneliness in the city. The tour guide said, "If you don't drink a bowl of wine, you will come to Enshi for nothing." . So, looking for the scratching sound, we walked into the Ba People's Hall, a Tujia-style characteristic hotel. In the hall of Ba people, cheers and applause echoed, and it was the performance of Tujia customs that won the applause. At the foot, tiles are scattered all over the floor. The drinker blushed and was in high spirits. He took a big bowl and drank it off, then fell to the ground. The louder it is smashed, the more it represents respect for the guests. Wine bowls are the most common pottery bowls, and pottery bowls also have the color and fragrance of earth. Brown pottery bowl, full of crystal clear wine, looks like amber in the light. In the hall, there was a loud noise, a loud drink and a fall, full of pride. Trance, folk songs flying, looking for prestige, several Tujia sisters are toasting the guests. The singing is flying and the wine is overflowing.
Barentang, be there or be square, and don't go back until you are drunk.
Magic Grand Canyon
Going to the Grand Canyon, the road near the cliff twists and turns, all the way forward, the road turns with the mountain, the mountain blocks the road, and the exchanges are slim.
It always rains in Chuqing, and at first glance it looks sunny. By the river, along the steep hillside, the thick green is a tea garden. The tea-picking season has passed, and only one or two tea farmers are working in the tea garden. Looking up, there is a green space among the mountains and a small house with white walls and blue tiles. When talking about tea, the tour guide told more and more stories and sang "Six Mouths of Tea". "Have a cup of tea and ask you a word. Are your parents (house) at home?" "If you drink tea, you can drink tea. How can you talk so much? My parents are eighty-eight this year. " Probably in this ancient land, young men and women, the seeds of love, use tea to express their feelings, questions and answers, sweet songs, plain words, mixed with deep feelings. This selenium-enriched green tea is the simplest matchmaker.
Driving to Qixingzhai Scenic Area, looking back at the road, winding and disappearing. Looking up, we can see four hills, which are the grand canyon we have been longing for for for a long time. This "Oriental Colorado" Grand Canyon has attracted many heroes with its unique natural wonders.
Just entering the scenic spot, we were greeted by winding steps. The steps were steep and narrow, and after only a few floors, I was sweating and panting. "Girl, come on!" A voice fell from the sky, and I don't know when an old couple appeared on the steps. The gray temples sparkled in the sun. Although the old couple are old, it is not difficult for them to walk. They walked hand in hand, smiling and enviable. "Grandparents, that's great!" I responded with a smile and was ready to move on. Climb this step and you will reach the mountainside. Looking from the railing, the sun is shining and the sky is clear. In the distance, on the top of the mountain, a few clouds as thin as gauze add a sense of mystery.
Wandering around and catching a glimpse of the sky, it is a charming cliff plank road.
Unique peaks rise from the ground and soar into the sky. How can there be a way? When there is no way to go, Tujia children along the Qingjiang River will dig holes in the cliff, cross off the beams and columns and pave the plank road. There is no road, build a wide road. Li Bai wrote a poem "An earthquake broke once, a brave man lost his life, and then the stairs were stacked" in "Difficult Roads in Shu". Just 16 words, how many touching stories are hidden and how many amiable and respectable heroes are drowned. I felt the huge rusty iron pile on the rock, and I couldn't help but be in awe.
At half past three in the afternoon, we arrived at the "lovers peak". There are a lot of people around the couple peak. It turned out that a pair of outdoor climbers were climbing Lovers' Peak, and there was aerial photography all the way, probably to make a documentary. People around said that the climbers were a couple, the man from America and the woman from England. They started climbing mountains at 7: 00 in the morning. At this time, two-thirds of the journey has passed, but the remaining one-third is the most difficult. Lover's Peak is a steep mountain rising from the ground, surrounded by no one to rely on. The mountain is only divided in half at the top. From a distance, they look like close lovers. I looked at the moving figure on the couple's peak and felt a warm current in my heart. A person's life is short and long. How to spend it, who to spend it with, who to love, who can accompany him for a lifetime? For a moment, I suddenly understood that true love is that you and I work together to pursue the common goal, experience the storm and taste the sweetness again. Harmony of mind is far better than match.
There are too many wonders in the Grand Canyon, but I can't remember them. Natural beauty is only beauty. It is with these lovely people and touching stories that all beauty becomes flesh and blood, temperature and amorous feelings.
In this sense, the Grand Canyon is also full of amorous feelings.
