"Shuangfeng, you can only see..." The raft worker looked over there and gave Zhang Shaofei a meaningful look, "How deep the twin peaks are, how many heroes will be drunk."
After Zhang Shaofei received this reminder from the raft worker, he secretly glanced at Liang Shuilian and couldn't help laughing.
How beautiful the mountains of Taijiang are. Only by visiting them in person can you appreciate its beauty and mystery.
When an unexpected stone looks like a giant turtle lying on the water, telling you a long-standing legend, you can't help but want to explore the secret of its origin; inadvertently you see a huge stone rising up, standing like a giant ship. On the river beach, the beautiful and romantic scenery will make people have more daydreams; the wonderful Shengzu Peak boulders will make people marvel at the uncanny workmanship of nature. It seems that if this mountain forest is not carefully carved, it will become a regret. People’s lingering worries.
On a drifting bamboo raft, the familiar folk song "Green Doll Under the Moonflower" sounded, which made Zhang Shaofei yearn for the dollow flowers.
Who is it that beauties performed this folk song so vividly? Until an extremely lush clump of wild green radish with hundreds of plants suddenly appeared by the stream. The shock at the first glance made Zhang Shaofei fall in love with her charm and passion.
Her feather-like fluffy branches and leaves are gathered together at the upper part, each tilting outward at a harmonious angle, like a group of graceful dancers stretching their soft waists outwards, with the phoenix feathers on their heads swaying in the wind. The cheerful rhythm of the stream performed the early autumn waltz so mesmerizingly that I wanted to wrap my arms around her waist and be her lifelong dance partner.
Traveling through the scenery, time passed quickly. When Jade Girl Peak stood so affectionately in front of Zhang Shaofei, his consciousness was blurred for a moment.
What kind of shock would that be? Countless languages felt boring, and only that moment of confusion made him feel that there were too many incredible things in the mysteries of nature.
The joints on the slender jade fingers are actually clearly visible, as if the jade hands playing the sounds of nature are playing a moving melody. He thought that Jade Girl was still missing her brother Wang, otherwise why would she have been waiting here lovingly for a thousand years?
The green mountains are her dowry, the green trees are her makeup, the lingering clouds and mist are her veil, and the clear streams are her bridesmaids. She has waited for too long, and her tears finally turned into gurgling streams and quietly seeped into the mountains of Dawangfeng. Chest, a relief from the pain of lovesickness.
The raft worker considerately stopped the bamboo raft in front of Jade Girl Peak to rest for a while. At some point, the raft worker jumped to the head of the raft, picked up the long bamboo pole and started rowing gracefully, looking a little clumsy. It's cute, but every move is quite authentic. The bamboo raft spins in the stream, making Zhang Shaofei, Shui Lian and Osmanthus laugh.
The Jiuqu River beach water is very fast, and the bamboo rafts are mostly made of more than ten fist-thick bamboo bowls. The head of the raft is raised high like a dragon head. Osmanthus fragrans playfully picked up a bamboo pole and imitated the raft workers. The movement is like waving a golden hoop to insert the long bamboo pole into the water. When the four or five meter long bamboo pole is inserted deep into the water, sometimes only the head of more than a foot is exposed. The embroidery needle embroidered the mountains and rivers of Taijiang into her eyes line by line.
The raft is swimming in the middle of the painting, and the small bamboo raft has become the most beautiful moving scenery in Zhang Shaofei's eyes. People dressed in colorful clothes add a touch of gorgeous color to the lush Taijiang Mountains. The fish behind the raft greedily eat the fish food that people scatter far away. Occasionally, there are waves, and people’s laughter has been integrated with the green mountains and waters. There is interaction between people and mountains and rivers. , this mountain and water are more agile.
When the bamboo raft passed through the dense jungle, the visual feast had to end. The beauty of Taijiang Mountain had made Zhang Shaofei and the others intoxicated and did not know their way back.
During the rafting process, Zhang Shaofei felt big rocks sliding under his butt from time to time, and the bamboo raft jumped forward as if on a trampoline.
The bamboo raft rushed through dangerous shoals and whirlpools, and was rushed by the rapid current towards green trees and lurking rocks. People on the shore stood by the river and looked at Zhang Shaofei and the others, sharing the thrill and joy of rafting with them.
Standing on the bamboo raft and continuing to follow the detailed beauty of Taijiang Mountain became the biggest temptation for Zhang Shaofei and the others after they fell in love with her at first sight.
The bamboo raft Zhang Shaofei and the others were riding on was filled with a lot of water, and they were soaked to the skin. Before Liang Shuilian could calm down her emotions, the second dangerous shoal came again...
When they reached the place where the water flow was gentle, Liang Shuilian finally recovered from her shock. When she looked around, she saw that the river and stream were clear and green. The green trees along both sides of the river were whirling, and there were many dragonflies flying overhead, as if to welcome them.
There are a few wild ducks playing in the river from time to time, which is a lively scene. Standing in the bamboo raft, Zhang Shaofei felt like he had returned to the embrace of nature. At this moment, their bamboo raft was suddenly stuck by a stone. No matter how hard the rafters tried, the raft still could not move at all.
At this critical moment, a row of bamboo rafts rushed behind them. Zhang Shaofei cleverly grabbed the handrails on the bamboo rafts with his hands and let the row of bamboo rafts wash down their rafts, helping them leave the dangerous zone. .
…
Drifting in the Taijiang Mountains made Zhang Shaofei excited and returned to his true roots. The most exciting thing is not the excitement and comfort, but the way of controlling the bamboo raft with balance several times: the domineering and self-confidence of a man, who else can turn the tide but me? He is not afraid of anything. This kind of temperament has not been felt in him for a long time. Therefore, during those thrilling moments when the bamboo raft collapsed, Zhang Shaofei really shouted "OK!" not for anything else, but for the long-lost youthful passion and return to true nature, revealing the true nature of human beings. nature.
Drifting in the Taijiang Mountains gave Zhang Shaofei the biggest feeling - surprise, enlightenment, and spirituality.
Surprise, surprise but no danger. At the highest drop of the rafting, "flying down three thousand feet" is really thrilling! It made him forget the troubles of Lu Xueru's fall, and he felt as if he was reborn in another life; he suddenly felt that all his thoughts were empty;
Enlightenment, enlightenment, enlightenment. While drifting, he was struck by the scenery. The scenery came from his heart, and he had some insights inadvertently. He captured the Zen ideas hidden deep in the world of mortals and conveyed the Zen ideas that transcend life and death.
Surprise and enlightenment are just like the blue sky and white clouds in the sky. Use surprise to interpret enlightenment, and then use enlightenment to interpret joy and happiness. This kind of joy and happiness contains some kind of Zen wisdom and is closer to the true meaning of life.
If surprise and enlightenment are the most direct sensory feelings that Taijiangshan Drifting gives him, then the spirit of Taijiangshan Drifting gives him the greatest spiritual enlightenment. Smart and spiritual, surrounded by mountains and rivers, the raft workers chant; there is reality in the emptiness, and emptiness in the reality; people are nature, and nature is people. Everything has an original appearance and beautiful natural scenery, allowing him to walk in a "Zen state" anytime and anywhere.
The total length of Taijiang Mountain rafting is five kilometers, and it took more than two hours to complete the rafting process. The rafting in Taijiang Mountain has twists and turns, either fast or slow. Although the drifting time is short, the drifting journey is as long as the happiness is far away.
So Zhang Shaofei composed an impromptu poem and recited "Drifting in the Taijiang Mountains, the Love Song in My Heart"
Take a bamboo raft
Let your thoughts flow in the mountain stream
sparkling
What slides is the golden sunshine
The rafter's penny touches the pebbles
The tapping sound hidden in the water
echoing softly over and over again
What floats on the water is our laughter
Thoughts are flying on the top of the mountain
Autumn breeze
Ripple on the clear stream
What is rippling is more gentle autumn sun
Looking up into the distance
Baiyunbian
Do you still have angel wings exposed?
Holding a stream of water in one hand
Still reflected in the stream
Reflecting the beautiful girl’s smiling face
Pleasing to the eyes
It's a mark of drifting
The most beautiful album
Watch while rafting in Taijiang Mountain
…
Unknowingly, the bamboo raft docked. The thrilling rafting finally ended, and Zhang Shaofei and the others had to say goodbye to the bamboo raft workers reluctantly.
Zhang Shaofei thought to himself: If possible, it would be great to freeze time in this drifting!
Looking at the infinitely beautiful rafting river in the Taijiang River, Zhang Shaofei and the others were even more enthralled.
…
After they finished rafting, they still had fun. Liang Shuilian took advantage of it and said, "I'll go play splashing again."
They high-fived each other and said happily, "Okay!"
There are four villages near Taijiang Village: Jiangshang, Jiangxia, Qidong and Dongkou, with a total population of 80,000. The Water Splashing Festival is one of the most grand annual traditional festivals in these four villages, usually on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month. held.
With a pious heart, people came to the stream where the seven fairies had trodden and imitated them. You splashed water on me, and I splashed water on you in return. For a time, the colorful clothes were pleasing to the eye, the colorful clothes were provocative, and the laughter and laughter were everywhere. echoed on Taijiang Mountain.
In the past, their ancestors celebrated the Water-Splashing Festival to ward off evil spirits. Later, the custom of splashing water gradually became a form of mutual blessing for them. In the eyes of Sifang people, water is a symbol of holiness, beauty and light. Only with water can all things grow in the world. Water is the god of life. People use water splashing to clear away the troubles of the past year and look forward to a beautiful and pure coming year.
Water is a gift filled with blessings. Some people will choose to sprinkle water with flower branches to express their blessings to you; some will use various utensils to sprinkle water on you, and some will directly spray water with water pipes... Although the expression methods are different, they all have the same intention. My sincerest blessings to you.
Here, water symbolizes happiness, and the more you splash, the happier you will be.
It was noon, the towering Taijiang Mountain was shrouded in clouds and mist, the sun was shining brightly, and the mountains and rivers were laughing. Tens of thousands of people in various villages, dressed in festive costumes, beat gongs and drums, danced lions, set off firecrackers, and walked toward The streams that the seven fairies had trodden in those days gathered on Pingjingming Lake in Chanlong Gorge. When Osmanthus led Liang Shuilian, Zhang Shaofei and Lu Huilan to the scene, the Water Splashing Festival had already started for a while.
There were huge crowds of people at the scene, and wonderful water-splashing battles could be seen everywhere. There were no boundaries in happiness between various workshops and people. Everyone happily splashed blessing water and enjoyed the fun of wet carnival. There was laughter on the clear lake. , the sound of water is endless, and the entire Zenlong Gorge Pingjing Ming Lake is immersed in a joyful and boiling atmosphere...
People poured the auspicious water of blessing on each other, splashing water on each other, wishing each other good luck, happiness and health. The scene was very lively.
"Splash all over your body, you will be happy for life, and all diseases will be gone!" Osmanthus said excitedly to Zhang Shaofei, looking at Zhang Shaofei who was soaked all over and turned into a drowned rat.
"'Spray all over your body, you will be happy for a lifetime, and all diseases will be gone', Ah Hua, you said this jingle so well." Zhang Shaofei also cheered at such a lively and shocking scene.
Osmanthus flattened her right ear, turned to Zhang Shaofei, and said loudly: "Brother Afei, what did you just say?! It's so noisy here that you can't hear clearly..."
Zhang Shaofei approached Osmanthus fragrans, folded his hands into a round shape, put it close to her ears, and said loudly: "I mean, the jingle you just said, 'splash all over the body, happiness will last a lifetime, and all diseases will be gone', is so well said. !”
Guihua waved her hands and shook her head, laughing loudly and saying, "How can I, a little girl, say such highly educated words! This is a saying that has been passed down from generation to generation."
Zhang Shaofei looked at the sweet-scented osmanthus and asked curiously: "Oh...really? Are there any other good stories or touching stories that have been passed down from generation to generation?"
Osmanthus fragrans was asked by Zhang Shaofei, and she remembered how she heard her grandfather tell the story that the Eight Immortals once held a fruit feast here. "Brother A Fei, after the water splashing is over, I will take you home for dinner and ask my grandpa to tell you the story about the Eight Immortals setting up a fruit feast here. Do you want to listen?"
Zhang Shaofei clapped his hands and said happily: "Okay!"
