Chapter 132: Tujia Daughter's Day (3rd Update)
The stalagmite river originates from the wharf village at the foot of the "roof of Kuizhou" - "Maoerliang" mountain. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
From the birthplace to the north, the river gradually opens up and flattens, the green hills on both sides of the bank are continuous, and the flowing springs fall down several times through the stone ridges, forming countless pools of different sizes, and the water of the pools is light green.
The pebbles are round and smooth, colorful, large and small, if carefully polished by hand.
It is about six kilometers from Liujiaxia to Shimenxia, the top of the mountain is full of greenery, the mountainside cliffs are steep, and the valley is shrouded in clouds and mist.
Shimen Gorge Mouth, the cliffs on both sides of the river are thousands of feet, such as axe splitting knife cutting, the rock is blue and red, like two huge stone gates, standing on both sides of the river valley, tightly locking the gorge mouth, standing at the bottom of the valley, looking up at the top, the blue sky line.
The bottom of Shimen Gorge is deep and narrow, the beach is many and rapid, once the flash flood occurs, the turbid waves in the canyon roll, the waterfall flows straight down, and the roar is like thunder.
Walking out of the stone gate, the world suddenly opened up, swept away the haze of the canyon, and suddenly a stalagmite hundreds of meters high stood majestically in the middle of the river valley.
Standing at the foot of the stalagmite root and looking up at the top of the stalagmite naturally makes people dizzy. The stone pillars up to hundreds of meters high are like a giant tower, and the lower circle is above, reaching the sky. Underneath the stalagmites is a deep pool, dark green in color, unfathomable.
On the right side of the opposite bank, 999 stone stairs turn from the stalagmite valley and pass 99 sheep intestine paths, and then climb the cliff to reach the ancestral temple hall tunnel.
On the left side of the bank, there is Guojiapo, which stretches for ten miles. The peaks at the top of the slope are arranged like eighteen Arhats, and it can be vaguely seen that there are two stone people standing on one platform, and the name is the husband and wife stone.
To the north, the river flows through Huanglinzhuang to Hongyan through the garden and then to Zengjiayan, this unique topography makes it have many waves along the way, and the water potential is circuitous. The green hills on both sides of the strait, the sound of the red rock ape, if you drive a boat here to drift, break the waves and hit the water, the fun is endless.
Descending the river, we enter a long and narrow river valley, where the mountains are more majestic and the water is more charming, and in front of it are Dayuquan and Zengjiayan.
It has a long history and a long culture. Standing on the bitter grass, looking into the distance, the afterglow of the sunset made the entire Zengjiayan red.
There are several holes in the cliff, more than 100 zhang away from the ground, the hanging coffin stored in the cave is moved to the White Emperor City Cultural Relics Museum, the hanging coffin here, the burial method and location selection are very similar to the Three Gorges hanging coffin. In 1989, the goat villagers dug out a 16-kilogram metal utensil from the soil when they were working, this thing is called "upsetting Yu", made of bronze, it is a musical instrument in the Spring and Autumn Period of our country and the Warring States Period, and the drum horn is combined, and it is used as a military order.
Today, Liu Xiaoming and Xiaoyu's goal is here.
It is also famous for its grape production. At this time, it is a hot summer day, and it is time to harvest delicious grapes.
The three of them still came by big truck, walking on the beautiful stalagmite river.
"Xiao Ming, this is the stalagmite river you said!"
"That's right, this is the stalagmite river."
Hearing this, Xiaoyu's eyes looked closely at the scenery outside the car window.
"Your hometown is so beautiful, although it is not as magnificent as yesterday's sinkhole, but this beautiful scenery is still as charming."
Hearing this, Sun Yue nodded in agreement. Accustomed to seeing the high-rise buildings of the metropolis, when they saw this beautiful farmhouse mountain scene, both of them were shocked for a while.
"Hehe, it's not the best here, I'll take you to have a good look later. The grapes here are some of the best in the whole of FJ County. There are a lot of fruits of all kinds, and you are guaranteed to be satisfied. ”
Hearing this, the two girls were expecting each other.
At the first stop, Liu Xiaoming took them to the most famous place in the stalagmite river, which was the stalagmite that rose to the sky.
According to the locals, this stalagmite was originally going to become a sperm and grow one zhang tall every day.
But, somehow, on a light rainy night, a bolt of lightning broke it at the waist, and now it seems that the break is still obvious.
After parking the car in an open space, Liu Xiaoming took the two girls to the waterhole at the bottom to play. The crystal clear water of the pool is very attractive, and several people are completely enchanted here. Next, go all the way and visit all the way, and see several famous attractions nearby.
When he went down to the bottom of the mountain, Liu Xiaoming specially bought a lot of grapes for his second daughter in the local grape plantation.
At lunch, Liu Xiaoming took the two of them to eat pure game in the farm at the bottom of the mountain.
Wild boar, roe deer meat, and the most delicious pheasant.
One meal, completely satisfied the two snack goods, and when they left, they all walked with their waists crossed.
didn't stay too much in the stalagmite river, Liu Xiaoming wanted to go to the cloud mountain above to play in the afternoon.
Because, tonight on the top of Yunwu Mountain is the festival of the Tujia family, called the Daughter's Day.
Tonight's Yunwu Mountain is very lively, singing and dancing. Countless Tujia girls are coming out to party today, and many tourists who are playing elsewhere have also flocked over.
Since he took the two of them to play, Liu Xiaoming naturally couldn't miss such a lively scene.
Yunwu Mountain, located above the stalagmite river, is about 20 kilometers away and takes 40 minutes by car.
Yunwu Mountain is also called the hometown of the Tujia family.
Most of the residents living here are Tujia people.
The Tujia Daughter's Festival in Yunwu Mountain falls on June 15, some places are at the end of May, and some are on August 15. Depending on the place, the date of the festival is also different.
Daughter's Day, also known as Tujia's Valentine's Day. On this day, both men and women will wear festive costumes, especially women, all wear a left placket with many laces, and wear a colorful long skirt underneath, and walk like a cloud fluttering, which is very beautiful.
At the same time, it is also a place for many single men to hunt for beauty. So, this afternoon, it was already a busy day.
Liu Xiaoming drove a big truck, and came over early with Xiaoyu and Sun Yue. After staying in a hotel, Liu Xiaoming took his two daughters out to play.
Yunwu Mountain, the reason why it is called this name, is because there are many mountains here, and it is foggy all year round, and it looks like a fairyland on earth.
Xiaoyu was as happy as a bird out of the cage, happily walking on the path on the mountainside. The days are long in summer, and it doesn't get dark until after eight o'clock.
At this time, in the square of Yunwu Mountain, the crowd was already crowded. In the middle, there is a large circular platform with a lot of dry firewood piled on it. On either side are long tables with food and drinks that have been prepared for a long time. From time to time, there are young girls dressed in different Tujia families interspersed with the crowd.
"Xiao Ming, look, their clothes are so beautiful."
Liu Xiaoming looked at the Tujia girls who came and went, and was also surprised. The clothes they make themselves, worn on their slender bodies, reflect the white skin, and the beautiful environment around them makes people feel like they have come to a fairyland.
Sun Yue looked at their costumes and was also moved. It's a pity that this kind of clothing can't be bought, otherwise Liu Xiaoming would have to buy a set for Xiaoyu.
"Let's go, let's go in, there will be a bonfire later, and it will be even more lively."
After speaking, Liu Xiaoming squeezed in first, and opened the way for Xiaoyu and the two by the way. Seeing this, Xiaoyu smiled happily. After a lot of hard work, several people finally came to the innermost.
"Xiaoyu, you see that's ....."
"Liu Xiaoming?? ......" voice was a little surprised.....
