Chapter 27: Rope Love
"Ahh Qi Sina's aunt screamed, everyone came to watch, and saw a snake quickly piercing into the grass, what the snake looked like, no one could see clearly, and they didn't know if it was poisonous or not. After the snake retaliates or takes the initiative to bite first, it will quickly escape, and these dense plants have become the best route to protect the snake from escaping, which is a way of life, not a dead end.
Feng Feifei didn't dare to go forward, she was really scared, this place was daunting. The person in charge of the unit and Ji Conan could only help her to walk forward, and when she walked, it made people feel as if she had a serious illness, and the psychological pressure was very great, and she had no intention of going to the mountains and rivers again, and Yaxing was gone.
When she arrived at the infirmary of the scenic spot, the doctor looked at the tooth marks left by the snake on her legs, and the skin was slightly red and swollen, and said: "It's okay, this snake is not very venomous, and I often show people this kind of snake bites." I'll give you some medicine. Soon it doesn't hurt anymore. There are no sequelae. ”
The doctor said as he treated the wound on my aunt's calf.
Tourists may often be bitten by snakes in scenic spots, and the common accidental injuries here are snake venom, and the medicine that the infirmary has is snake medicine, and the main treatment of doctors is snake bites. For Feng Feifei, this matter is bigger than the sky, she has never been bitten by a snake since she was a child, this is the first time, there is always a shadow lingering in her heart, even if the doctor repeatedly downplays the condition, it will not help.
After all, Feng Feifei is not in her own home, and she has to consider the feelings of other personnel, so as not to delay everyone's morning affairs and sweep everyone's visit to Yaxing. In her one-acre and three-third of land, she is the only one who says the same, if she plays tricks, no one can stop her. The strong dragon does not suppress the head snake of the ground, in this place, when you reach this mountain, you have to sing the song of this mountain.
So she pretended to be strong and said, "It's okay, it's okay, let's go take a boat." I'm sorry, I delayed everyone and swept everyone's interest. ”
She is like this, everyone began to think that she was embarrassed, and it was okay to listen to what she said, but the tone was a little strong. The content is fine, but the way is inappropriate, because on the way, everyone is happy to come out and will not go back with a stomach. Come out to be happy, not to be angry, just have the right to endure it. I said again and again that it didn't matter, it didn't matter, and I held it in my heart, it was not good to have a seizure, after all, it delayed everyone's time.
As soon as she finished speaking, everyone flocked to the top, it was a waste to take the six of them in a boat, generally speaking, it was cost-effective to take a dozen people in a boat, and there were many people, which was also a good thing for the hull, and the captain and the slender man were also willing to take this job, and there were fewer people and no energy. It just so happened that there was a tour group in the back, and ten of them were added, just enough to fill a boatload of people.
The captain was in the bow and the second in the stern, and they drove downstream along Swallow Creek one by one.
Historically, the boatman's family was poor, he had no money to buy clothes, he was naked on the boat to make a living, so neat, sweating immediately flowed, to the ground, soaked clothes, but uncomfortable, the slender man is to exert strength, if you don't work hard, the boat will not go, and the current against the current, you need to make a lot of effort, the power of the water is very large, if you don't compete with it, there is no way to make the boat move smoothly.
In the place where the water is turbulent, it is necessary to pull down the fiber, the so-called pull down fiber, that is, the slender man is behind the boat, pulling the fiber rope backwards, so as to prevent the boat from being washed away by the water, and ensure the safety of life and property on the ship. It takes more concerted efforts to pull down the fiber, and when the boat boss shouts, the other fibermen will drink, which is considered a response. The voice is strong, rugged and powerful, and it sounds very powerful. It's no wonder that many songs written by composers are related to this.
Such boats, with their two pointed ends, are known locally as "pea horns" and are very small means of transport. In the mountains, the mountain road has eighteen bends, and sometimes it is much faster to take the waterway. No wonder Li Bai has a poem saying that the apes on both sides of the strait can't stop crying, and the light boat has passed over the ten thousand mountains. This speed is very fast, and the speed of the waterway is far faster than the speed of advancing on the mountain road. With the impoundment of the Three Gorges of the Yangtze River, the water level is gradually rising, and the scenic spots of Swallow Creek rafting are also moving upward.
The standard of living of these porters is also gradually improving, and it is rare to see porters or boatmen without clothes. Of course, these slender men still like to bare their shoulders and wear no tops, which is convenient for work.
Today's fiber pulling is completely tourism and entertainment, and it is no longer the kind of fiber pulling life in the past.
Now motorized boats can go everywhere, the water level of the Three Gorges is rising, and the boatman's boating skills basically do not need to go through a major test, because there are no dangerous shoals, no reefs, and no huge waves and strong winds brought by the water potential. Some ship bosses with superb skills look down on those who drive machine ships, feel incapable, and can't see how high the level is.
The boat is upstream, thrilling, because the current is too fast, worried that the boat will be washed away by the water, sometimes, you can clearly feel that the bottom of the boat has touched the stones at the bottom of the water, banging, but also makes people's hearts thump, such a dangerous place, there are people who take risks for a living.
There is a photo, which reflects that the slender man does not wear clothes, and pulls fiber naked, usually a man, and that photo also won an award, and later, Ji Conan saw the complete picture, which also reflected the matter of the slender man pulling the fiber, but the difference is that the female slender man, of course, the female slender man does not wear a shirt, but wears pants.
Even so, Ji Conan still felt shocked, because the woman was skinny.
Being thin and small, it wasn't forced by life, and she wouldn't do it. But it is the experienced boatmen and slender men who make the boat obedient, and those who know the nature of the water so skillfully steer the boat.
"Pea Corner" passed the dangerous bend of the river beach, and finally drifted to the depths of the water, at this time, as if entering the dawn, everywhere was quiet, and the hustle and bustle just now fell silent. It's like a symphony that comes to an end.
The slender man stopped following and greeted another boat that had drifted down from above. Their "pea horns" enter the canyon.
The water was very green, the valley was very quiet, and I could only hear the sound of the oars paddling, and I could hear my own breathing very clearly.
Ji Conan didn't bring a camera, but Miss Bi brought one, and she was also moved by the scenery here and kept taking pictures.
Miss Bi can't wait to bring home the scenery here and play with it carefully.
The stone walls on both sides, like axes and machetes, are so straight that they do not look like they are naturally formed, but are chiseled by a pair of huge hands with chisels, and they are simply perfect, without the slightest artificiality.
I heard that Zhuge Liang went to Shu Kingdom, passed through here, and saw some square stone holes from a distance, arranged in an orderly manner on the cliff.
Maybe this is the so-called ancient plank road ruins.
Come to think of it, people in ancient times really did it, and in such a dangerous place, they actually made so many square holes. The plank wood has long since disappeared, leaving only empty square holes.
Further on, the water is getting wider and wider, "Look, hanging coffin!" Someone shouted in surprise.
They took a closer look, and sure enough, in the gap of the cliff, there were coffins one after another, clearly visible, some of the coffins were rotten on one side, and some were intact, which was really amazing.
The ancients had such a high skill in preserving coffins, I wonder if people today can learn it?
Also, the treatment of corpses is also very unique, I wonder if physical chemists can study it thoroughly?
I can't imagine how many stories there are behind those people in the coffin, and I don't know how many novels of "Huanzhu Gege" can be written by Qiong Yao's imagination of Concubine Xiang?
The boat passed Swallow Rock and entered the haunt of the golden monkeys. There is a swallow hole in Swallow Rock. I don't know how deep the hole is, and I don't know how big it is, but in short, the space inside is large enough to accommodate countless swallows. The swallows go out early, in groups, densely, and the sound is noisy.
Sadly, they didn't see a single golden snub-nosed monkey.
According to the boatman, the golden monkeys only come out in the morning or evening to drink water by the stream, and if you miss this time, you will not be able to see it.
They have seen golden monkeys in movies, television or newspapers, but it is better to see them with their own eyes.
The water became wider and wider, and the boat finally sailed into the Yangtze River. The water of the Yangtze River is muddy yellow, and the water of Yanzi Creek is turquoise, and the yellow and green intersect, which is very obvious.
It seems that the forces are important. The yellow power is great, the green power is small, and the power is small, and the power is small, and it cannot prevail over the big power.
Vice President Li acted as their tour guide, and he introduced: "This is Guandu, which is the throat road into Shuyu. Go up the river, walk through Xiling Gorge, and go here to finish, and then go up, it is Wuxia. The steepness of Wuxia is even more powerful. However, the impoundment of water in the Three Gorges, the water level is raised, the water surface is like a mirror, and the precipitous atmosphere is gone, but the Yangtze River has been managed as docile as a virgin. In the past, Li Bai's heroic spirit of 'the apes on both sides of the strait can't stop crying, and the light boat has crossed the ten thousand mountains' has become history.
In the past, the water potential was very good, so most of the slender men on the Yangtze River would die, but even so, in order to live, they had to pull fiber, which was the only waterway into the river.
The Three Gorges is like a flat shoulder, one end provokes the Chengdu Plain, the other provokes the Jianghan Plain, this flat shoulder, the role is very large, people can not imagine.
Therefore, most of the slender men of the Yangtze River later joined the army. It is very comfortable to be a soldier to have food to eat and clothes to wear. In the end, it is nothing more than dying on the battlefield, which is much better than falling into the Yangtze River to feed the fish.
Feeding the fish, it is difficult to save the corpse, and if you die in battle, you can still be a hero, which is not unattractive. Therefore, when the Sichuan army fights, they don't want to die, probably from the family of slender men who were born in the Yangtze River, and they are all gambling with their lives. If you do it well, you will return home, if you don't do it well, you will die in a foreign country, all of them will end like this. ”
The real tour guide is very good, she taught them a song called "Fourth Sister Huang", which sings:
"I don't have time today, I have to chop wood tomorrow, and I will come to Xiaomei Mountain the day after tomorrow."
That is, when a man and a woman fall in love, the woman asks the man when he is free to sit down, and the man answers.
Folk songs are very good, generally about the love between men and women, which sounds a little vulgar, but there are also elegant times.
Chinese love is more subtle, and always uses some metaphors, or anthropomorphic writing or techniques, to express real feelings.
Male and female love is one of them. The most important thing is how to get a happy ending.
In fact, it is very rare to get a happy ending in China.
Ji Conan's love is almost blank, because he doesn't understand love, he is poisoned by material, and he always wants to use money or material to fill the defects of love.
The pursuit of perfect love may be the common ideal of all people.
Hardly any can succeed.
If there is, it is only in literature. Of course, there are fictional parts in literary works, which come from life, are higher than life, and what cannot be obtained from life can be obtained from the work. Of course, the lyrics were changed by the boring people in the same boat, and they became like this:
"I don't have time today, I'm going to play cards tomorrow, and I'll come to Xiaomei Mountain the day after tomorrow."
caused laughter, after laughing, Ji Conan thought, this is true, now the high salary is generally more leisurely, but the low salary is more busy, a little unfair, but there is really no way, the society is like this, people and people are not equal, there are people who sit in a sedan chair, there are also people who carry a sedan chair, if they all sit in a sedan chair, no one will carry a sedan chair.
In addition, people's vulgarity has reached the point of no return.
Playing cards, drinking, eating, playing, and playing have become the necessities of life.
And those who study, read, and pursue the truth are rarely patronized.
From ancient times to the present, people have preferred vulgarity to elegance. Elegant things are out of reach, vulgar things are readily available, everywhere, and everywhere.
The boat approached the shore, and they got off the boat, and were just about to leave, when they were stopped by a man in a white coat and said, "Please go to the left and test." ”
When they saw it, there were really a lot of people queuing there, probably tourists from another boat, who had not finished checking and continued to wait.
Sometimes, the people in white coats are more severe, because there is an epidemic of pneumonia in Africa, they say yes, because of health, quarantine areas can be established, and with quarantine areas, some suspected cases are isolated like objects.
People are afraid of sickness, and they are even more afraid of losing their freedom. They had to follow the tour guide, and half of the tour guide, Vice President Li, to the left.
Just a few steps away, Feng Feifei screamed, everyone followed the sound and saw that she stepped on an old cable under her feet, which looked like a straw rope, Vice President Li walked over quickly, picked up the cable, and the eldest aunt shouted while dodging: "Throw it away, throw it away." Ji Conan thought it was a snake. ”
Everyone was relieved, it turned out that Feng Feifei's fat girl stepped on a "snake" again.
Everyone's body is normal. Many places have heard of this bird flu, but there are no suspected cases in Guizhou, which is really strange!
In the depths of the mountains, the "bird flu" does not come, but it is a prosperous and lively place, but it appears frequently, this is God's fairness, not God's partiality, the difference between urban and rural areas, in an instant, is even flattened, who can say that it is not a miracle? If there is an infectious disease in Guizhou, I am afraid that only the birds can come and spread it.
Avian influenza seems to be a new disease, and there were many cases in other places in the past, but I have not heard of that disease until I returned to the state. What kind of illness will there be in Guizhou? This is the answer that Ji Conan has been seeking.
