Excerpts from Walking with Books (1)

I watched several documentaries "Walking with Books" these days, which impressed me deeply and made a brief record.

1 Jiangyou, Li Bai's hometown

Jiangyou city, Sichuan is the hometown of Li Bai, a poet in the Tang Dynasty. There are Kuangshan, Kuangshan and the place where Li Bai studied. The mountain environment is beautiful and quiet, and Li Bai studied here for ten years.

2? Baijianlou

? Baijialou is located in Huzhou city, and there are hundreds of buildings on both sides of the river, so it is called "Baijialou". It is about 400 meters long and was built by Shangshu of Wanli Ritual Department of Ming Dynasty and Dong Fen of Nanxun.

? Some people build arcades; Some buildings have eaves, which can shelter from rain in rainy season and shade in summer. A hundred-story sealed volcanic wall and a three-story horsehead wall; There is also the Pipa Gable, which is strewn at random, very interesting and has a typical flavor of Jiangnan water town.

Stone revetment along the river is neat, and small bridges span both banks. In the old river, silk boats shuttled endlessly.

3? Xipu bridge

Xipu town, Shouning County, Fujian Province is a famous bridge museum. There are different styles of bridges, such as covered bridges, stone bridges and piano bridges. Among them, the piano bridge is some neatly arranged stone piers, like keys. There is a short stone pier next to every six stone piers, which is used for the humility of pedestrians on both sides of the strait when they meet in the bridge. There is also a special championship banquet here.

4? Fuding white tea

? Fuding city white tea is a specialty of Ningde City, Fujian Province. There are mainly four varieties: Baihao Yinzhen, Bai Mudan, Gongmei and Shoumei. It has the characteristics of cooling nature, clearing away heat and reducing fire, relieving summer heat and detoxifying.

The mountainous area with an altitude of 600- 1000m is suitable for the growth of white tea. Taimu Mountain at the junction of Fujian and Zhejiang is not only a beautiful environment, but also a famous white tea producing area.

There are Zhu's thatched cottages and caves on Mount Taimu. Fang Yizhi, a scientist in the Ming Dynasty, discovered a strange echo phenomenon here, studied the sound propagation, and wrote Little Knowledge of Physics, which was included in Sikuquanshu. Up to now, there are still seven scenic spots such as Sansheng and Sansheng on Taimu Mountain.

Taimu Mountain, formerly known as Caishan Mountain, was named after the Empress Taimu. Grandma Tamu, formerly known as Gu Lan, lives in a cave on Hongxue Mountain. One year, the measles epidemic in children was out of control and many children died. Later, under the guidance of the immortal, she picked tea leaves from the green Xueya tea (now called Bai Hao) tree that grew in the cave in Hong Xue, and cured many children. Her kindness and charity are deeply respected, and she is honored as a grandmother.

Other names of tea: finch tongue (shaped like finch tongue), moon flower (elegant name), wind leaf axil. The name "wind gives birth to underarm odor" is related to a poem by the poet Lu Tong. Lu Tong wrote a poem called Seven Bowls of Tea:

A bowl of throat kiss,

Two bowls of broken loneliness,

Three bowls of heartbroken, only five thousand words.

Four bowls of sweat, life's grievances, all scattered into the pores,

Five bowls of clear rocks and bones,

Six bowls of faeries,

I can't eat seven bowls, but I feel the wind blowing under my arm.

? "Wind gives birth to armpits" hence the name.

White tea has the effects of clearing away heat and toxic materials and preventing acclimatization.

Now there are many derivative products, which can be used as ingredients (cakes) and medicinal materials.

6 Huotong Ancient Town

Huotong Ancient Town in Ningde, Fujian Province is the hometown of Huang Ju, an adviser in Sui Dynasty. Huo Tong built water conservancy projects in his hometown to benefit the people.

? The south bank of Huotongxi is high and the north bank is low, so it can't be fully utilized at first, and the people's lives are miserable. Huo Tong overcame all kinds of difficulties, especially the more difficult Longyao project, which broke some old ideas of local people and finally successfully built a water conservancy project to divert water to cultivate 20 thousand mu.

? One of the specialties here is Baguo cake, which contains eight ingredients: glutinous rice flour, peanuts, sesame seeds, red dates, wax gourd sugar, white sugar, lard and chopped green onion. It's delicious.
