The weather is slightly cool and drizzle is falling, but the trip to Hubei still sets sail. Breathe in the clear dew and head to Enshi Grand Canyon, Daughter City, and the mysterious Tusi City.
In my image, Hubei is the Jingzhou with the history of the Three Kingdoms and Fankou with the red cliffs burned by fire, the Wudang Mountains with mist-shrouded places where people seek Taoism and immortality, and the Three Gorges with its melodious melodies in the water and undulating waves. People use scenery to describe the ancient poem: "The apes on both sides of the strait can't stop crying, and the boat has passed the Ten Thousand Mountains." Looking at the rolling Dabie Mountains, they are lush and green.
The first feeling when entering the Enshi Grand Canyon is that the clouds and mist soar above the mountain terraces, like a white veil, caressing the mountains. The whole world is dominated by green, and it is deep on the top of the mountains and steep mountains. The winding roads stretch out as if they go straight into the sky. At the foot of the mountain gorge, there is a group of rural huts, criss-crossing the countryside. The sky-blue roofs are like the blue sky. Smoke curls up from the chimneys, surrounding this wonderful world. The mountain peaks were split into two halves like a mountain-breaking axe, thrust diagonally into the sky, with an unstoppable momentum like a sword taking a slanted edge. Green trees cover the entire mountain, just like covering the mountain with a quilt, warming the four seasons of life.
Take the aerial ropeway up the mountain, and dance in the sea of ??clouds at your feet, getting away from the ground and getting closer to the clouds. The feeling of flying instantly fell into a dream. In the dream, there were several corridors and distant views. The cliff promenade is guarded by stone railings on both sides, winding and extending into the distance. On the stone walls around you, there are waves like water flow, carved into undulating images layer by layer, reaching from the bottom to the top. This is also the result of the unique geology and landforms of the Enshi Grand Canyon. The promenade is closely attached to the cliff, and is like a long and winding ancient plank road. When walking, people feel like they are soaring on the top of the mountain, deep in the clouds. The Jade Girl Peak stands tall and straight, its trees are made of gauze clouds, its green hair is pulled up to the peak and cliff, thousands of dew drops fall, and fairy lotus flowers fly in the Yao Pond above its head. The peak of the jade pen is free and easy to fall into the mist, the stone becomes the eye, the green color becomes the ink, and the pen becomes the book. It stands close to the Jade Girl Peak, just like the Jade Girl holding a pen and falling into the green sea, with the mist and waves forming a frame of paper clouds. I looked at the beautiful scenery from a distance and couldn't help but forget to leave. Although it was cold in autumn, the raindrops fell on the ground from time to time. In this drizzle and cold desert grand canyon, I feel comfortable and comfortable, letting my thoughts run like thousands of horses galloping among the clouds and mist.
One Pillar of Fragrance Peak stands straight between the two mountains. There are large rocks on the peak that separate from the main mountain. There are also several unknown stars growing on the peak. The trees are like the rising smoke, hence the name of the incense stick. Looking at the scenery of a stick of incense from the top of the mountain, it is like the beauty of a stick of incense lingering in the mountains deep in the clouds, washed by water. The scenery of the entire Enshi Grand Canyon makes me feel like I am in the middle of a painting of green mountains and green waters with soaring clouds and waves in the sky and on earth.
It is easy to go up the mountain but difficult to go down. You can walk down the mountain along the bluestone steps and holding on to the winding stone railings. There are tourists on the road with crutches to support their tired bodies, and there are also relatives or friends supporting each other, looking at the scenery along the way, chatting and laughing. Suddenly, several sonorous and powerful calls came to my ears. It turned out to be men carrying sliding poles, passing by in a hurry. With their strong arms, they shouldered the burden of their entire lives, going up and down the mountain to serve tourists and rush for survival. . I looked at them with respect, and the greatness of the working people emerged spontaneously. On this steep cliff, there was a group of men with slippery poles, using their strength to depict the beauty of life. I wish them happiness and good health. In front of a stick of incense, I also silently prayed that the world would be peaceful and prosperous, without hunger, war, or disease. This would be the most perfect world.
In Tusi City in Enshi City, the tall city gate has eaves and corners, and dragons dance in the sky. There are four gate gods stationed on both sides. There are two side doors of Qian and Kun on the left and right of the gate. The stone door for men on the left and women on the right is half open, which symbolizes the coordination of Yin and Yang and the full door of Qian and Kun. The square Tusi City has carved wooden doors with patterns, and dusty dust stains the window eaves. Today's Tusi City has been re-influenced by the modern atmosphere, but the remaining ancient doors, windows and railings still have their own simplicity. There are also guard walls winding around like the Great Wall, with one sentry every three steps and one post every two steps, which shows the scene of the war back then. Judging from the architectural style, it seems that the mysteries of the Zhouyi Bagua were referenced to build such a luxurious and majestic city. Although the glory of the past has gradually faded in the wind and rain, the aura still remains. It fills the entire ancient city tower, telling the story of its former prosperity and majesty.
There is also the Master's School in Tusi City, which is dedicated to Confucius. The four characters of tolerance, humility, benevolence and wisdom are engraved in the middle of the school. The essence of the ancient teachings for thousands of years silently exudes its unique charm. I vaguely remember that underneath the word "nin" it says: "One who can use things as a ninja is a human being, and can be regarded as a master among others; one who can turn oneself into a ninja, is a sage among people, and can be called a saint; one who can use oneself as a human being, can be called a sage. He is an outstanding person among people and can be called a respected person.” The exact original words are not clear, but this is probably what he meant! All things in the world are not based on one's own preferences, greed for power and material things, as a ninja, and as a master of others. Those who can use the envy, jealousy and hatred between people become ninjas, and those who are virtuous and respected can become saints. Only those who can contend with their own nature and the dark and narrow side they are born with are the most honorable people. Personal understanding of the meaning, benevolent people have different views on wisdom!
In life, endure the calm for a while, and take a step back to open up the world.
To argue with someone whose thinking, ideas, quality and culture are low is equivalent to playing the piano to an ox, so why waste your energy? Might as well be patient. People with the same ideological, cultural and cultural quality as you will not have some unintentional disputes, so how can you tolerate it? If you get along with people whose thinking, viewpoints and cultural quality are higher than yours, then others will not give you a chance to care about you, only others will tolerate you. Therefore, the word "forbearance" for thousands of years encompasses everything in the universe. Let's experience it and understand it thoroughly! I have been working hard to be a tolerant person, but I have little talent, limited knowledge, and incomplete moral character. I can only keep pursuing the right direction and work harder...
When I return from kindness, I am filled with insights. The city of Enshi was developed relatively late. It was probably only in 2009 that it accelerated its pace of advancing with the times. In this rapid time, it is still not lagging behind and is as modern as all cities. But the folk customs there always make people feel more simple, with the atmosphere of deep mountains and canyons, and the pure beauty of walking out of the mountains to see the world. I like the pure, deep and warm heart of the forest.
