The villages near Tianlu Mountain have Wudong, Luodong, Shangdong, Xiadong, Inner Cave, Outer Cave, Seven Holes, Cave Entrance, Inner Cave, Huangwo Ten Fang, the total population of 200,000 people, Songkran Festival is one of the most solemn traditional festivals of the ten Fangs every year, generally held in the first half of the seventh month of the lunar calendar (that is, about ten days before and after the seventh day of the seventh month of the seventh month), for a period of two to three days.

In the past, their ancestors regarded Songkran as a way to ward off evil spirits, but later, the custom of splashing water gradually became a form of mutual blessing. In the eyes of the people of Shifang, water is a symbol of holiness, beauty and light. With water in the world, all things can grow, and water is the god of life. People splash water to clear the past year's troubles, looking forward to a beautiful and pure coming year.

Water is a basket of gifts full of blessings. Some people will choose to sprinkle water with flower branches to express their blessings to you; Some people will splash all kinds of utensils on you, and some will spray them directly with a hose...... Although they are expressed in different ways, they all hold the most sincere wishes to you.

Here, water symbolizes happiness, and the more you are splashed, the happier you will be.

Early this morning, the towering Tianlu Mountain, the sun is shining, the mountains are laughing, tens of thousands of people in each square are dressed in festive costumes, beating gongs and drums all the way, dancing lion dances, setting off firecrackers, and walking to the Chanlong Gorge near Luodongfang.

At noon, the people of Shifang gathered on the Pingjing Lake in Chanlong Gorge, and the Songkran Festival was grandly opened in Pingjing Ming Lake in Chanlong Gorge. The scene is crowded with people, the water is impassable, you can see the wonderful splashing water battle everywhere, between the squares, between the people, there is no boundary of happiness, everyone happily splashes the blessed water, enjoy the fun of wet carnival, the laughter and water sound on the Pingjing Ming Lake are endless, and the whole Zenlong Gorge Pingjing Ming Lake is immersed in a joyful and boiling atmosphere...... People poured the auspicious water of blessing on each other, splashed water on each other, wished each other auspiciousness, happiness and health, and the scene was very lively.

"Splash through the whole body, be happy for a lifetime, and leave with all diseases!" Liang Yaofu looked at the group of carnival crowds who were splashed wet and turned into soup chickens, and said to Huineng excitedly.

"'Splash through the whole body, be happy for life, and leave the body with all diseases', Yao Fubo, you said this sentence so well." Huineng was also attracted by such a lively and shaking scene.

Liang Yaofu tilted his right ear, looked at Huineng, and said loudly: "Ah Neng, what did you just say?!" It's noisy and inaudible......"

Huineng approached Liang Yaofu, closed his eyes into a circle shape, close to Liang Yaofu's ears, and said loudly: "I mean, the sentence you just said 'splashing through the whole body, happiness for life, and leaving the body from all diseases' is really good!" ”

Liang Yaofu waved his hand and shook his head again and again, laughing and said, "I'm a big rude, that can say such high-level words!" This is a phrase that has been passed down from generation to generation in ten lanes and nine miles. ”

Huineng looked at Liang Yaofu and said curiously: "Oh...... Is it? Are there any other words or stories that have been passed down from generation to generation? ”

Liang Yaofu was asked by Hui Neng, but remembered when he heard his grandfather say that the Eight Immortals had played rafting here. "Ah Neng, after the splashing is over, they will still play rafting on the top of Zenlong Gorge, why don't we go up first now and tell a story about the eight immortals playing rafting?"

Huineng clapped his hands and said happily, "Okay! ”

Liang Yaofu led Huineng, along the rugged mountain road, all the way up, sometimes the sound of gurgling water, sometimes the waterfall rushing in the face...... In the "boom" sound of the waterfall, Huineng realized Li Bai's artistic conception of "flying down three hundred feet, suspected to be the Milky Way falling for nine days", and his heart couldn't help but surge......

Unconsciously, Liang Yaofu and Huineng climbed to the top of the Zenlong Canyon in Tianlu Mountain. But between the main peak and the secondary peak is a rolling mountain, the ridge is an open grassy slope, and from time to time there are herds of bison running all over the mountain; In the sun of the mountain, it is actually a sea of flowers, and the rhododendrons all over the mountain are red and gorgeous, and the mountains are full of red.

As a result, Huineng's interest came up, the fatigue was gone, and there was a feeling of "being in this place, not in vain".

Liang Yaofu saw that Huineng was so excited, so he said: "Dozens of miles along Tianlu Mountain, there is such a saying: "Even if you miss the wedding period, don't miss the azalea period of Tianlu Mountain." The July day of Tianlu Mountain is really the most beautiful season of the year. ”

Tianlu Mountain Chanlong Gorge is really magnificent, worthy of the "canyon Wolong".

Huineng looked up and saw a lifelike dragon in the middle of the mountain, introducing the waterfall rushing and roaring from the steep peaks and cliffs into the mountain stream, turning it into a natural drift.

The Tianlu Mountains are in a north-south direction, the main peak Tianlu Mountain is located at the southern end, and the secondary peak Shuiyuan Mountain is located at the northern end, with an altitude of 1251 meters, which is the highest mountain in Xinzhou. This mountain is towering and cloudy, the mountain is majestic, emerald green all the year round, the clouds and mist are shrouded, the distance between the two peaks in a straight line is more than 10 kilometers, the top of the twin peaks is like two huge stones standing on the sea of clouds, the illusion is extinguished, like a mirage.

The strange rocks on the mountain are all over, the mountain flowers are splendid, and the legend is beautiful; The mountain is full of aura and vitality, rhododendrons, bell flowers, dragon beard flowers, wild alders, native teas and a variety of rare flowers and trees constitute a green treasure house.

A spring comes from the rocks in the middle of the mountain, if it bears the nectar in the sky and is born, it is called the source of immortals, and the water of the mountain water merges into the water of the dew of the sky and flows into the Xinjiang River in the former residence of Huineng, which is the birthplace of the Xinjiang. The sparkling ripples, beautiful and bright Xinjiang, watering out the beautiful customs on both sides of the river, have given birth to generations of Xinzhou people.

Huineng couldn't help but be overjoyed, just looking up at the current beautiful scenery, but unexpectedly kicked a stone under his feet, and he screamed "oops" in pain.

Huineng couldn't help but bow his head, showing that in front of him was a winding and lingering, emerald green drifting river, like a jade belt string of pearls connecting the strange peaks and strange rocks along the line into a line; On both sides of the river, everywhere aura, everywhere vitality, plum blossoms, alders and other rare flowers and trees around the river bypass, like a green treasure trove belt; The green primeval forest shades the sky and the sun, and the air is particularly fresh and densely forested, which is a natural oxygen bar...... The surrounding scenery seems to have been lit by the seven fairies, out of the spirit, the aura is flying, as if the poetic painting and aesthetic conception of the excellent Chinese cultural tradition have been fused, and the man and nature constitute a beautiful picture of harmonious coexistence. It's true: people walk up the gorge, as if swimming in a painting.

At present, Liang Yaofu also said poetically: "With such a beautiful scenery, it is no wonder that the Eight Immortals also came here to play rafting!" ”

When Huineng heard this, he suddenly woke up and hurriedly said, "Yao Fubo, you haven't told the story of the Eight Immortals playing rafting yet!" ”

"Good!" Liang Yaofu cleared his throat, sat on the boulder that Huineng kicked just now, raised his head slightly to the sky, half-squinted his eyes, and opened his mouth, and the storyline of those Eight Immortals playing drifting that he listened to his grandfather told back then flowed out of the chatterbox, just like the mountain stream of Zenlong Gorge:

"In the vast fertile land of the south of the country, there stands a white cloud-shrouded, beautiful mountain - Xinzhou Tianlu Mountain. It is like a bright pearl inlaid on the coast of the South China Sea. Since the opening of Pangu, there have been moving folk legends here. Liang Yaofu shook his head and shook his head, imitating his grandfather's demeanor back then, made an opening remark, and then turned to the topic:

It is said that when Pangu first opened, the sky was firm, the earth was vast, and the world was chaotic.

Lu Dongbin, Tie Guan Li and other eight immortals participated in the peach feast held by the Queen Mother by the Heavenly Court Yao Pond. The clouds are vast, the wind is refreshing, the immortals are all happy, drinking happily, mellow mash wine, jade liquid elixir, stuffed with stomachs, drunk and resting.

There is no feast in heaven that will not be dispersed. After the peach feast, the eight immortals left the heavenly palace and went out of the Nantianmen, and they decided to travel all over the world, browse the great rivers and mountains of the mortal world, and understand the affairs of the world.

The eight immortals each drove the flowing clouds, riding the wind, the strong wind blew the clothes of the immortals fluttering, passing by the coast of the South China Sea, looking down on the clouds, seeing the blue sea boundless, the waves flying and rolling. And the mountains here stretch for hundreds of miles like a dragon. There is a peak that rises above the clouds, and there are no green trees or flowering grass in the mountain, except for the strange size of the rocks. The bare mountain was full of yellow sand and dust, and a gust of wind blew, and the mountain was full of sand and rocks, and the smoke and dust were billowing like smoke from a burning furnace.

He Xian Gu told the immortals to stop, pointed to the mountain below, and asked curiously: "This mountain is so high, but it is desolate, I don't know where it is?" ”
