Lin Hai

I always thought that the strange peaks and rocks in the Greater Khingan Mountains were out of reach. This time I had the opportunity to see it, and when I walked into the primeval forest, stepped on the pine needles several feet thick, and touched the ancient trees with my hands, I confirmed that this pleasant name is so kind and comfortable.

The word "ridge" in the Daxinganling Mountains is very different from the "ridge" in the Qinling Mountains. There are indeed many ridges here, horizontal ones, along the mountains, higher ones, shorter ones, longer ones, and shorter ones, but none of them reminds people of the dangerous phrase "clouds cross the Qinling Mountains". There are so many ridges. I watched them for several hours on a speeding train. I could neither finish them nor get tired of them. Every ridge is so gentle, and precious trees grow from the foot of the mountain to the top of the ridge. No one stands out alone and looks domineering.

Everywhere you look is green. It is indeed the forest sea, the waves of the undulating forest sea. How many colors of green are there: deep, light, bright, dark, indescribably green. I'm afraid only a painter can depict so many green colors!

Of the thousands of treasures in the Xing'an Mountains, larch should be praised first. Yes, this is a sea of ??larch. Look, aren't there still white waves on the beach? Those are pretty white birch silver skirts, don’t they look like waves on the seaside?

There is often a clear river flowing between the two mountains. There are so many wild flowers on the river bank. I am a flower lover, but I can't name the flowers here. Xing'anling knows how to dress itself up: green pine for shirt, white birch for skirt, and embroidered shoes. Even the gaps between the trees are not lacking in color: various small flowers bloom under the shadow of the pine trees, attracting various small butterflies - they fall on the guests very affectionately. There are also small red beans like coral beads hidden in the flowers. The red bean wine made by Xing'anlingzhong Winery is made from these small wild fruits and has a very good taste.

Seeing countless green pines and white birches, who can not learn to look in all directions? How many provinces and cities have used the wood here, ranging from mines and railways to rafters, tables and chairs. Thousands of mountains are green, evergreen, which happens to be connected with Guangsha and good materials. Therefore, Xing'anling becomes more and more cute the more you look at it! Its beauty and construction are integrated into one, and its beauty is not empty. It makes people feel friendly and comfortable.

When I saw the forest farm, this feeling of intimacy became even deeper. We fell trees to collect materials, and also planted forests and protected seedlings. We cut them with one hand and carried them with the other. We not only collect treasures, but also do scientific research, so that the forest can not only last forever, but also be comprehensively utilized. There are already many towns in the mountains and forests, adding new scenery to Xing'an Mountains and happy labor songs. The relationship between people and mountains is getting closer and closer. How can it not make us feel friendly and comfortable? I don't know why it was called Xing'anling in the first place. From today's perspective, it does have the significance of rejuvenating the country and bringing peace to the country.
