I. Original text
The Three Gorges, 700 Li, is surrounded by mountains on both sides, and there is no gap. Rocks piled up, blocking the sunshine in the sky, and there was no sunrise since midnight.
As for launching Xiangling, it is along the back block. Or the king ordered an emergency notice, sometimes going to Baidicheng and going to Jiangling at dusk. During this period, although he took the wind, he didn't get sick.
In spring and summer, the green pool is surging and the reflection is clear. There are many strange cypresses, hanging springs and waterfalls, waterfalls. In the meantime, it is clear, radiant and very interesting.
At the beginning of every sunny day, the frost shines, the forest is cold and sad, and there are often high apes whistling, which leads to sadness, the empty valley echoes, and the sadness turns to leisurely. So the fisherman sang: "The Wuxia Gorge in the Three Gorges of Badong is long, and the apes cry three times, and tears are spilled on their skirts."
Second, translation.
Between 700 miles of the Three Gorges, there are continuous mountains on both sides, without interruption at all; Overlapping cliffs block the sky and the sun.
If it weren't for midnight, even the sun and the moon couldn't be seen. In summer, the water rises, the river overflows the mountains, and the descending or ascending ships are blocked. Sometimes the emperor's orders need urgent communication. At this time, as long as you leave Baidicheng in the morning and arrive in Gangneung at night, there will be a journey of 1200 miles in it. Even if you ride a galloping horse and drive a high wind, you are not as fast as it.
In spring and winter, you can see white rapids and spinning clear waves. The green pool reflects the shadows of all kinds of scenery. There are many strange cypress trees growing on the extremely high peaks, and there are hanging springs and waterfalls between the peaks, dancing and swaying on them. Clear water, brilliant trees, high mountains and lush grass are really interesting.
In autumn, every morning in Chu Qing or first frost, the Woods and mountains are cool and quiet. There are often tall apes chirping in a long voice, which is very sad and sad. There is an echo of the ape singing in the empty valley, which is mournful and tactfully lingering for a long time. Therefore, the Three Gorges fisherman sang: "The Wuxia Gorge in the Three Gorges of Badong is long, the apes crow three times, and tears are spilled on their skirts."
