Qingyi River is a flat boat with rolling mountains and clouds.
There is peach blossom water in front of the door, which only flows in deep spring.
This is an ancient poem that has been circulated for many years, making a small town come alive.
The town is called Qingyijiang, which is the name of the water. Later, it was simple, or it may be called yijiang to distinguish it from the waters.
Yijiang town is in southern Anhui.
In the apricot blossom spring rain, no matter at dawn or dusk, the horse head wall and the awning boat are faintly visible, while the winding stone arch bridge is full of charm. At that time, the boatman's song fell on the water, which was sometimes choppy and sometimes warm as spring. Shan Ye minor is elongated and flexible by the red headscarf, but it still rings suddenly every night.
The dark green Henglang Mountain is her noble and solemn silhouette.
She was held in her arms by a bend of more than 600 miles of clear water. For centuries, it has been warm and humid, and the peaks are fertile.
It has been nourished and moistened by miles of lush, crisp and unfamiliar willow leaves and bamboo pruning in Fiona Fang.
In the green light and shadow of Liu Yin and Youzuo, it is a path winding like a silver snake. Both sides of this path are crawling, recalled by the spring breeze for several years, but green and yellow, yellow and green weeds. There is sand under your feet, and occasionally there are stones of different sizes, colors and shapes that trip over pedestrians' shoes and even get into their feet. It's just that it's always refreshing and won't haunt people's footsteps like dirt.
There are also houses along the river, mainly in Xinzheng Street and Tang Peng Street. Most of them are ancient Huizhou-style buildings with unified styles, which are nothing more than horse-head walls, patios, small wooden buildings and carved windows. In the main room, you can often see a square table with bamboo chairs on both sides. Nave is usually a yellow Chinese painting for several years, and the pictures are mostly Fu Lushou and landscapes. Literati and some prominent people are mostly original works mounted on rice paper, and ordinary people just copy and print them. Although there is a legend that tigers live in nave and their families are ruined, some people still hang tigers, and most of them are Phytolacca. I think it may be because Phytolacca acinosa can see the tiger's face. The atmosphere of all this is silent, with no fresh colors, which is rather dull. But it doesn't matter. Because the real scenery is hidden behind the curtains, if it is caused by the wind, we can inadvertently catch a glimpse of a passing flower shirt, a graceful figure, and long, swaying hair tips. If you come closer, you may smell the perfume of the girl's house. They are generally rich. It is recorded in the book that in the past, there was a story of a golden house hidden in the forbidden garden of the imperial palace, but in the folk of southern Anhui, there were also such wooden houses with pride, but they never cultivated into a good temperament and were ashamed to boast of their colors. It is their consistent style to be tepid and reserved. Although they have not achieved any climate, they can still be safe and stable, so that a pulse of incense can be passed down.
When Wang Jiaxiang, an outstanding revolutionary and diplomat in New China, was a teenager, he once lived here in a cabin with a patio. At that time, 16 years old, went out to study from his hometown in Hou' an, Jingxian County, and was in Yule School, a missionary school in Nanling County, 0/6 kilometers away from the county/kloc-0. His father, Jame Steve, opened a pawnshop in a small town in his early years, with more than 0 rooms/kloc-0. He is a famous businessman, so his family assets are very strong. It is rumored that his two brothers-in-law, Zhai Yuan Shao and Wu Zisong, also worked here. Unfortunately, there are not enough documentary evidence.

There are many old trees at Xinzheng Street Pier, with their branches hovering and gloomy. Walking a few steps inside, it is said that there is a square building on the right, like a memorial arch and a city gate, which is the entrance to the cave. Neighbors and alleys all think that the word "Tianyi Pavilion" is an important figure under Sun Quan of Wu State at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, and Lu Su, the leader of the water army who was practicing on the Qingyi River, wrote it himself. Because of the age, the wall is covered with moss and dark. Once in the cave, a cool breeze blows gently, even in midsummer. When I was a child, that is, the first 40 years, I often walked through that area. Although what I have seen and heard is not as magical as the legend, and Lu's handwriting is gone, the scenery in the countryside is vaguely like it.
In Shahegou, adjacent to Tang Peng Street, there is an arched stone bridge named Yigu Bridge, which is 4 meters wide and connects families on both sides of the north and south. Shops with convenient shortcuts set up a long springboard at the back door and hung it in the air on the river ditch. If you want to get out of the back door, you can walk leisurely through the springboard. During the news time, the water of the Yijiang River skyrocketed and often overflowed into the big pond in West Street, where passing ships moored, forming a peculiar scenery. According to ancient legend, this Shahegou was originally a shallow ditch. It is said that the ginger washed here is especially fresh and tender. During the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression period, the Japanese dropped bombs by plane, which happened to blow this place up like this.
In the past, the water terminal occupied a favorable geographical position, and its commerce and trade developed rapidly and prospered generally. With more people living in compact communities and more people circulating, there will naturally be more houses, which will become a market or even a market town to a certain extent. Gu Kuang, a poet in the Tang Dynasty, intoned in his poem Qingyijiang: "When I return to the garden at night, I feel sad and the waves sound. Caoshi Bridge near the village, Shixia Net under the moon. " Imagine that the past is visible.
According to the "Nanling County Records" for nine years: "The unified records are on the Qingyi River, and the county seat is forty miles east, which was decided by the Han Dynasty. In the third year of Jian 'an in Hou Han Province, Sun Ce pacified Xuancheng East, and in the twentieth year, Sun Quan made Jiang Qintun Xuancheng, the old city. In the second year of Jin Taikang, Wanling County established Xuancheng County, and later Xuancheng County. In the early years of Sui Dynasty, Wanling was changed to Xuancheng, and the old city was abandoned. "Also," said Prince Zhang Huai, the ancient city of Xuancheng is in the east of Nanling County, Xuanzhou. "It is conceivable that in the twenty years of Jian 'an at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, that is, in 2 15 AD, the old town of Xuancheng, that is, the ancient town of Yijiang, had people who built water to live in, and an" old town "had begun to take shape. At this time, the town has a written history, but in the early years of Sui Dynasty, the development of the "old city" was weakened by "changing Wanling into Xuancheng".
Qingyi River Basin in southern Anhui has water docks such as Yijiang Town, Zhangdu and Chitan in Jingxian County, Xihe River and Bay in Wuhu County. Except that the Bay site is the location of Wuhu County, it is still prosperous, and other places have not developed as fast as the land market town. Waterfront towns are gradually declining on the runway of economic development, which can evoke a nostalgic psychology over time. The town has become a roll of thread-bound books, antique. When the rainy season comes every year, it is best to give off a musty smell, and then keep some enclosed courtyards and paste them with cow dung. The sound of the shepherd boy piccolo is far and near, and the smoke is curling up. The eldest sister-in-law in the countryside calls the children who come home late with an authentic local accent: "Xiao An Ni" or "Xiao Mei Ni"

In fact, entering Tianyi Pavilion means entering the old street. The old street was originally paved with bluestone slabs, and a small amount of water could be deposited between the gaps. After a long time, an inch of faint grass will grow. Later, with the development of the times, the old street became today's cement pavement. After liberation, it was renamed as Xinzheng Street, a glamorous staple food. It's about 2000 meters from the pier to the West Street Cinema. This used to be the commercial center of ten rooms and nine merchants.
Legend has it that this street is the land of the fire dragon, and there are two round holes above the Dadun Pass, which are the eyes of the fire dragon. Therefore, it was absolutely forbidden to open a blacksmith's shop in the old street in the past, because it was necessary to pull the furnace and bellows while the iron was being struck, and the hammer would jingle, thus hitting the dragon's body, which would inevitably cause the dragon's anger. When a fire dragon is angry, it will reduce the fire. So I don't know when it originated in the town, that is, every April of the lunar calendar 15, offering sacrifices to Vulcan and holding a Vulcan temple meeting. I don't have the privilege to see the details in person. It's just a summer night under an old tree. Old people shake banana leaves and say that they will talk about it in ancient times. If they are interested, they will talk more. The night is as cool as water and bright moon. When the interest rate is bad, you will also want it if you are in a hurry.
According to legend, there are quite a lot of programs about the Temple of Fire. There is a singer, I don't know what kind. Huangmei Opera and Lu Opera are popular among the people in Nanling in southern Anhui, commonly known as "Daodao Opera", and the famous actor is Zhou Xiaowu. About 20 years ago, my friend "Sanwaizi" invited me to see his Little Dictionary in Nanling Dongmen Theater. There is a kind of "Mulian Opera" in Nanling, which is called the living fossil of drama. I heard that intangible cultural heritage is being declared. I don't know what it is! The most popular interactive programs are playing dragon lanterns, walking on stilts, holding platform corners, picking flower baskets and other popular cultural and sports activities. On that day, people from four townships and eight towns rushed to the temple fair, just like the tide in the rainy season. The old people estimated that there were always more than 10,000 people, and the whole town was crowded in an instant.
I later analyzed that it was estimated that the temple fair was so prosperous because of cultural and economic reasons. Due to the position of Yijiang Town as a water terminal, businessmen from Jingxian, Jingde, Taiping and other mountainous cities and counties, or by boat, or by bamboo rafts and rafts in the mountains, descended along Qingyi River, carrying tea, firewood, winter bamboo shoots, mushrooms and other local products.
Yijiang town itself is not rich in wood and bamboo resources, but it had the largest wood and bamboo distribution center in southern Anhui in that year. The current is swift and the sails are dancing. The bamboo and wood products manufacturing industry on the shore is also extremely developed. From Shahegou to Fried Beach, it stretches for miles and is a commercial street of bamboo and wood products. It is the bamboo and wood raw material market under the old bridge built by 1969. The most distinctive bamboo products are: bamboo basket, basket, basket, fine screen, sun-flattened, fish basket, bamboo chair, cold bed, bamboo hoard, bamboo mat, chicken cover, sun cover and other daily necessities. Buy as long as you can think of it. Bamboo mats, in particular, are made of the best water bamboo, cut into extremely thin linear strips, and danced in the arms of older girls and kannika nimtragol in less than half a day. There are various patterns on the front of the bamboo mat, so you can weave words when you are particular. This kind of bamboo mat can't be folded, it can only be rolled up. If it is used in early summer, it needs to be rubbed with a rough towel to remove the burr of fine hair, otherwise it will hurt the skin. Because bamboo is cool, the effect of summer vacation can be imagined. In the past cool summer, almost every family had such bamboo mats in every bed. Dayuanqiu is a natural village in the town. It is estimated that there are hundreds of households. Bamboo mats are the most exquisite and famous. Not only women are good at this, but men can also shine. Once upon a time, weaving bamboo mats was the main source of income for their family. In the 1980s, in my impression, bamboo mats in Yijiang Town seemed to have crossed the ocean and earned foreign exchange. Who goes to Yijiang Town without a bamboo basket, basket or bamboo mat? It is a well-known hometown of bamboo weaving, but the scenery is no longer! Maybe it's all the air conditioning. ...
