Accidental visit to the secluded residence of a saint--Fenghua 16 kilometers on foot

In the early morning of the fog around the city, we started from Yongcheng and drove at a high speed for more than 70 kilometers, and drove out at the junction of Fenghua and Xinchang. Not far from the highway, I saw such a grand beef stall for the first time. Some of the cars in front quickly turned into the front of the stall, while some hesitated and finally couldn't resist the temptation and joined the team in front of the stall. I regret not bringing a car refrigerator on the car. Looking at the tender beef, I regret it! Regret! Regret! You must bring a refrigerator every time you go out in the future.

Arriving in Shaxi Town, we began to find a way into the mountains and enter the depths of the mountains. For the first 5 kilometers, the mountain road was deserted and there were no colored ribbons along the way. This route should be a relatively unpopular route. The two of them felt more panicked as they walked on the cold mountain road. Along the way, there were also deciduous maple forests and peach trees that were still bare before the season. At a collapsed pavilion, a team of seven hiking enthusiasts finally came up (there were two people left behind, and a team of nine people) passed by us like a gust of wind and disappeared for a while. I suddenly felt that the popularity of the forest increased greatly, which had a psychological effect!

In front of Chafeng Village, I met a flower farmer who was repairing a nursery. I heard from him that he used the factory break to build a shelf for his own flower seedlings, which were ready to be used for grafting crabapple trees. A maple forest in front of the village has not yet completely fallen leaves, and several pine trees stand tall and appear to be prominent.

Without entering the village, turn right in front of the small bridge in front of the village and follow the mountain road at the foot of the mountain, deviating from the navigation path. Nowhere, I finally experienced 5 kilometers of scenergy-poor areas, and the first valley with a little more interesting.

The first village I really passed through was Tangjiaping Village. A moss and cobblestone road passed through the village. Some old-style houses are still preserved in the village. There is a house with a complete red letter of "Agricultural Learning Dazhai" on the outer wall. Next to them are cans and tiles used as children.

Walking to the small square in the center of the village, Tangjiaping Village is developing tourism mainly based on agriculture. Due to the inappropriate season, a "Pumpkin Avenue" can only resemble the grand scene of pumpkins hanging all over branches at that time, and is equipped with the garbage classification, which is currently most concerned about. The "Garbage Classification Organic Paradise" is very distinctive of the times. The wall built with wine jars should be a unique feature of Tangjiaping Village.

There is an ancient bridge at the head of the village with a Xiliu Pavilion on the side. The Yanbang Ancient Road passes by the Xiliu Pavilion and goes deep into the mountains and forests through the ancient bridge. Stand at the railing of the plank road and have a panoramic view of the village.

The large chestnut shells on the ground, and occasionally the chestnut meat with open mouths, are still leisurely hiding in their "small house" or hanging on the branches to bask in the sun. If you miss the season, if you are in the chestnut season, the ground will be covered with chestnuts.

After crossing the hill and entering the bamboo forest, I heard the sound of a radio. Another village had arrived, and indeed we had arrived at Dafahong Village. As soon as I went down the mountain, I saw a horse dozing in the field. A red maple that is more than 200 years old stands above the roof, making it unique.

Turn right at another red maple with the same age and walk along the upper road. There are still red persimmons hanging on the persimmon trees in the village. A caring dog barked when he saw two strangers.

Walking down the mountain through the village, you will arrive at a mountaintop pond. The scenery is good. The pond is surrounded by unknown trees. You can see the rolling mountains and the "W"-shaped highway across the mountains. It is a good place to eat. If it is spring, it will be beautiful to have flowers blooming all over the mountains and fields reflected in the pond. Decisively have lunch on site!

Continue to climb mountains and forests to reach Shangxu Village. "Good things are like water, and the wind comes from Xu"-this is the interpretation of the village by people in Shangxu Village. There is a "Mopan Avenue" in the village. It is not easy to gather so many Mopan Avenue. Villagers in a pool of water in front of Mopan Avenue gave it a nickname-"Yushui Longtan". The cradles along the road are rocky, which is called "Aofeng Qinghe.

Enter the last village on this trip-Zhenzhao Village. Zhenzhao Village is located on the southeast side of Shaxi Town, 34 kilometers away from the county seat. It is formed by the merger of three natural villages: Zhenzhao Village, Xinkeng Village and Dakeng Village. The landforms are a resort in Wozhou. Siming Mountain veins enter the country, water surrounds the peaks and rings, fertile soil and pure wind, and there are many mountains and little farmland. The word "Zhen Zhao" comes from Wang Xizhi's mantra. It is said that Wang Xizhi abandoned his official position and hid himself. The Jin Emperor read it and issued edict many times. Wang Xizhi avoided it but refused to accept it. Later generations named the edict and issued it to the village building as the "Zhen Zhao". Most of Zhenzhao Village are Hui-style architectural styles with brick, wood and stone structures, and stone buildings with ancient village customs such as Daqing Bridge, Yu-style ancestral hall, and Old Street are preserved intact.

Among them, Daqing Bridge is 56 meters long, 7.7 meters wide and 9 meters high. It is a three-hole stone arch bridge. It is recorded that it was built ten years ago in Xianfeng.

Zhenzhao Old Street is the commercial center of the ancient village. Before the founding of the People's Republic of China, there were Nanhuodians, Yellow Hotels, pork shops, tofu shops, Chinese medicine shops, etc. The once flowery flowers no longer exist, and only the cobblestone paved road matches Shaxi's unique "Shaxi Red" granite slabs are still quiet in the world, quietly telling history.

The Zhenzhao Ancestral Hall was built during the Yongzheng Period and expanded during the Qianlong Period. It was burned down in 19th and rebuilt in 21st. The existing ancestral hall consists of a main hall, viewing building, stage, front porch, etc. The beams and front eaves are carved with fine embossed, which is a unique architectural style in the middle and late Qing Dynasty. The ancestral hall has now been transformed into an activity center for the elderly.

The ancient platform gate of Hengda in the Tang Dynasty has the words "Rising like the Sun" on the door, reflecting the owner's pursuit and yearning for his life ideals. Blue bricks are used as the main material of the exterior wall, coupled with blue tiles, showing the ancient Jiangnan charm of white walls, blue tiles and horse heads. As time goes by, it has now become black and white mottled, with varying shades.

There are also ancient buildings such as "Shanxi Yishuang".

Leaving the village and continuing to climb the mountain along the ancient road, I accidentally looked back and saw that Zhenzhao Village, hidden in the mountains and surrounded by mountains, exudes the beauty of seclusion! A porter was rushing home carrying a heavy load. There is a pavilion on the roadside for farmers to shelve some idle farm tools while resting.

After passing through the pavilion, you will return to Shaxi Town after going down the mountain. There is still some autumn feeling left at the foot of the mountain.

A small river runs through the town, and the autumn scenery reflects the beautiful figures through the clear river water. A fence with white walls and blue tiles beside the stream is painted with a portrait of the calligrapher Wang Xizhi and the poems "Wang Youjun's Residence" and "Youjun's Ink Pond" by Pei Tong and Liu Yanshi, two great poets of the Tang Dynasty, which exudes a strong cultural heritage.

An ancient bridge spans the stream and river, forming a "full moon" with its reflection. The ancient bridge is Youjun Bridge. About 350 years ago, Wang Xizhi, the sage of calligraphy, went to seclusion in the Jinting of Shandong in his later years and "created the Jinting Daoyuan in Hanling". He devoted himself to cultivating cultivation and talked about metaphysics and analysis. He often traveled here and traveled all over the Shaxi Mountains and rivers. In memory of Wang Xizhi, the sage of calligraphy, he named the stone arch bridge "Youjun Bridge" after Wang Xizhi's official name "Youjun". There is a 315-year-old ginkgo tree beside the bridge.

There is a farmers 'market in the town. Because it is 2 p.m., the market is deserted, but it is quite lively outside the market. There are vegetable and fruit stalls, and specialty snack stalls. The most distinctive ones are rice cakes as big as stools and egg cakes with stinky tofu.

On the return journey, I was so happy to see that the beef stall was still there in the morning! Take some home.
