Text: Finding a hole

Early the next morning, I woke up early, in fact, because I knew that I was too excited to climb the mountain today, I tossed and turned last night, and I didn't sleep well at all. Together, my uncle and aunt were woken up by tossing.

Uncle didn't break his promise, after breakfast, he took his father and Zhang Mingyu, and a group of four people drove to Lingshan Mountain in a flying machine.

My aunt runs a beauty salon and it's already open today, so she can't come with us. And Zhang Mingyu's brother Zhang Xuyang, because he has already married a family, does not live with his uncle and aunt. Except for the first day of the New Year, I have been busy paying New Year's greetings to my sister-in-law's relatives these days.

From Baoding to Lingshan, it takes about ten minutes to arrive. Overlooking Lingshan from a high altitude, it really looks like a turtle, with a head and legs, and the most obvious is the turtle shell in the middle, that is, the main mountain, which is not only the tallest, but also the location of the tomb.

Lingshan is on the branch of Taihang Mountain, the mountain is actually not high, and the highest peak is estimated to be only about 100 meters. There is not much vegetation on the mountain. As my dad said, if it weren't for the pines and cypresses that were transplanted later, the whole mountain would be a bald and barren mountain.

The mountain stone is blue-gray and has no attractive color. The most ridiculous thing is that one side of the turtle's shell was cut off a large part by the mountain, revealing the "internal organs" of the turtle. Layers of geological patterns can be clearly seen.

Although the Lingshan Han Tomb was excavated in the 60s, it was not until the reform and opening up in the 90s that people consciously built a tourist attraction. In the middle 30 years, no one has the awareness of protecting the monuments of the Han tombs. In the middle, the mountain was opened to take stones for many years, and a corner of the mountain was demolished.

We parked the aircraft on the tarmac and my uncle went to buy tickets.

Dad told me that when they were young, they all went up from the back mountain, where there were many cliffs, although it was dangerous, but it was more interesting to climb, and at that time there was no ticket, so they went up casually. Unlike the front mountain, the terrain is relatively gentle. Later, after it was developed into a scenic spot, a climbing step was built, which was convenient, but it also lost the fun of climbing.

Pick up the ticket, check the ticket, and enter the mountain.

In recent years, the Lingshan Scenic Area has been rebuilt repeatedly, and the scale of the mountain gate is getting bigger and bigger, and it is becoming more and more magnificent. In addition to the serious Han tomb attractions, there are also many things to do such as playgrounds, Bagua Palace, and cable cars. On the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, everyone's New Year is almost over, and many people are out to play with the whole family, so the bottom of the mountain is not to mention the crowd, but also in an endless stream.

Our family climbed the steps built along the mountain until we were halfway up the mountain, and my father and uncle said that they were tired and rested in the gazebo next to it.

Zhang Mingyu and I are young and strong, and we don't feel tired at all. Thinking about finding the mysterious cave for a while, my heart became more and more excited. But I knew that my father was against it, so I didn't tell anyone except to prepare the flashlight, not even Zhang Mingyu.

My original intention was to let my dad and them rest, and I just left them to climb the mountain on my own, but my dad was not at ease and asked me to wait for them to walk together.

Coincidentally, next to the resting pavilion was a cave, but the entrance of the cave was locked by an iron fence. There is a note next to the entrance of the cave, saying that this cave is called "Xuanwu Cave", which is the air-raid shelter dug in the era of "digging deep holes and accumulating grain", which is now abandoned. I stood at the entrance of the cave, looking at the deep cave inside, my ears were accustomed to the endless cold wind, and I didn't feel cold at all, I only felt new and fun.

I saw my father and uncle pointing to the mountains in the distance, recalling the style of climbing mountains when I was a child. I couldn't finish feeling emotion for a while, so I said:

"Dad, uncle, you are old, and your health is far worse than that of us young people. You have a long rest here, I'll go up first, and let the second child take care of you. ”

"Don't run blindly, you won't be able to find your way by then. Dad hurriedly said.

"What are you afraid of, there is a signal on this mountain, so you can just call your mobile phone when the time comes. "I don't care about talking, I climb up as I talk.

Zhang Mingyu was originally going to go with me, so I pushed him back, telling him to take care of the old man and I wanted to play by myself. Dad had no choice but to shout at the back to be careful, I scoffed, thinking, I'm here, I'm here to explore, be careful, can you explore?

No one is behind
