Translation of Lonely Mountain with a Laughter

Abrupt: towering: very different: special winding: winding, winding: cloudy days clearing up: building houses: reeds: nascent reeds

On August 1 day, (the ship) passed the bonfire rock. Since the Southern Dynasties, many beacon towers have been set up from Wuchang (now Hubei) to Jingkou, and this mountain should be one of them. Looking at the mountains from the boat, all you see is the towering peaks. When I anchored my boat and walked down the hillside, I saw the rocks embedded in the cave, which were grotesque, bright and moist, not much different from other rocks. There is also a boulder that is not connected with the bonfire rock. It is towering and majestic, about 100 feet high, covered with red vines and green vines, like a screen inlaid with jewels. On this day, it was calm and the boat walked slowly. Because the river was shallow in late autumn, you could see all the beautiful scenery here. (Just now, Fu Shuo: "Fortunately, the ship came late, which was wonderful." After Penglangji and Xiaogushan, the two mountains face each other from east to west. Xiaogushan belongs to susong county, Zhou Shu, and there are soldiers on it. Jinshan, Jiao Shan, Luoxingshan and other isolated mountains in the river are all world-famous, but they are not as beautiful as Xiaogushan in terms of precipitous beauty. From dozens of miles away, the green peaks of Xiaogushan stand tall and towering into the sky, which is no longer comparable to other mountains. The more you look at it, the more beautiful it is. In winter, summer, sunny and rainy days, the posture changes greatly, and it is indeed the most beautiful place in nature. It's just that the temple (on the mountain) is too desolate and broken. Adding more pavilions and pavilions is naturally more beautiful than Jinshan. This temple is at the foot of the western hills. The word "Huiji" is written on the plaque, and God calls it "Mrs. Anji". In the early years of Shaoxing, Wang Wei Zhang Jun came back from Hunan and had it repaired. A monument recorded this. Peng Longji also has a temple in pengze county, Jiangzhou, facing the Yangtze River. The reflection of the mountain is reflected in the water, which is also a famous mountain. When the ship passes through Penglangji, even if there is no wind, the waves are very big, so Penglangji is probably named after it. The ancients had a poem: "The passengers on board were not crazy. My sister-in-law married Lang Peng the year before last." Legend has it that there is a statue of Lang Peng in Xiaogushan Temple and a statue of her sister-in-law in Penglangji Temple, but this is not the case. That night, (my ship) stopped at Shajia, about a mile away from Xiaogushan. It was raining lightly, so I took a boat to visit the temple in Xiaogushan. Looking to the south, Pengze and Duchang mountains are surrounded by misty rain, and Sha Ou and Egrets appear and disappear. Climbing the mountain and visiting the scenic spots near the water is also the pinnacle, and I lingered for a long time before going back. Standing at the gate of the temple, a strong and handsome eagle is chasing waterfowl and flying over the southeast of the river, which is very spectacular. The temple keeper said that there were many eagles living on the mountain. The next morning, after walking less than 20 miles, the wind suddenly surged and the rope was tied in a hurry. After a while, it cleared up again and (the ship) moved on. When I rowed to the mouth of Peng Li, there was no margin when I looked around. Only then did I understand the beauty of Li Bai's sentence "Sail into the Sky Mirror". Only then did I see Lushan Mountain and Dagushan Mountain. Dagushan looks like West Liangshan Mountain. Although it is not as beautiful as Xiaogushan, there are several sandbars and nascent reeds beside Xiaogushan. Dagu Mountain is surrounded by endless rivers. Looking from a distance, just like floating on the water, it is also a spectacle! The Yangtze River branches from Hukou to Nanjiang, which is the water area along Jiangxi Road. The water in the Yangtze River is very turbid. Whenever we want to use river water, we need to use almonds to clarify it, and we can't drink it until one night. The water in Nanjiang is very clear, and the intersection of the two rivers is not as chaotic as it is with a rope ruler. Arrive in Jiangzhou in the evening. The state capital is located in Dehua County, which is Xunyang County in the Tang Dynasty. Chai Sang and Li Li belong to Jiangzhou; In the Southern Tang Dynasty, it was under the jurisdiction of Fenghua Army, and now it is Dingjiang Army. The soil on the shore is red and stands upright like a wall. This is what Mr. Dongpo said, "The boatman points the shore like a shovel." (Ship) moored at Songpukou, the water is clear and does not mix with the river. It's only six days from July 26th to today. One day, because of the wind resistance, it was impossible to sail. In fact, it took four and a half days to sail 700 miles against the current.
