Shu zhongxing's prose

Speaking of Sichuan, it always reminds people of Liu Bei's knowledge and responsibility, Guan Yunchang's Past Travel to the United States, Zhuge Liang's ingenious calculation, Zhang Fei's coarseness and delicacy, and Li Bai's Difficult Road. In modern times, the Sichuan Army held high the anti-Japanese banner and went out to fight against Japan for national justice. Sichuan is also charming because of Jiuzhaigou, and it is also famous for the giant panda in the world. I wanted to go for a long time, but I never got a chance. This time, I can finally do it.

When I first arrived in Sichuan, I felt that its mountain landform, climate, weather and customs were similar to those of Hunan, but gradually you will find that they are different.

First, talk about the fog in Sichuan. I stayed in Sichuan for 12 days, and 1 1 day was foggy. Several times, I was stuck on the highway because of the fog. When we arrived at the mountain city of Chongqing, the fog was even worse. Ten meters away, we can't see anything However, drivers living in Sichuan seem to drive at the same speed as usual. Once I went to Emei Mountain, it was foggy at the foot of the mountain. When I got to the top of the mountain, I saw the clouds clear and the sun was dazzling. Emei Jinding glistened in the sun, and Bodhisattva Samantabhadra stood on the Jinding wearing a white elephant, standing upright in the blowing fog, showing the endless scene of Buddhism, and all tourists bowed down. Why is there no fog above the mountain, but there is so much fog in the city? Because Sichuan is low-lying and humid, it is easy to produce fog and difficult to disperse, so there is a phenomenon of nine fogs on ten days.

The pace of life in Chengdu is not as fast as that in first-tier economically developed cities such as Beijing, Guangzhou and Shenzhen. People usually have a slow pace After work in the evening, you will see groups of people sitting in street stalls asking for some snacks, and they will start drinking a glass of beer. Sichuan dialect with local characteristics sounds full of charm. Talk to Sichuanese about food culture, then you are playing with a big knife in front of Guan Gong. One of my classmates happened to be at Sichuan Shuangliu Airport. He warmly received me and took me to taste the unique local food "rabbit head". I often eat chicken head and duck head, but it is the first time for me to eat rabbit head, and there is no place to start. He saw me in a dilemma and taught me how to eat. First, he divided the rabbit's head into two parts from the position of its mouth. But the most famous thing in Sichuan must be hot pot. A pot of red base material, look carefully, and it is covered with a layer of pepper. People who have just arrived in Sichuan must not be used to this smell. When eaten in one bite, the spicy taste is second to none, mainly because of this hemp. Most foreigners eat Sichuan hot pot by taking out the peppers first.

There are many beautiful scenery in Sichuan, but because of time, we only went to Emei Mountain and Leshan Mountain. The day we climbed Mount Emei, it was November, and it was two degrees below zero in downtown Emei. It snows heavily. We took a bus from high-speed railway station and started climbing mountains. Along the way, the bus of the travel company drove around the mountain along the Panshan Highway, turning continuously, which frightened the tourists. However, the driver's skillful driving skills have no intention of slowing down. It took about two hours to get to the parking lot halfway up the mountain. When he got off the bus, he saw snow. I hit myself hard, and many people on the roadside sold crutches and spikes for mountaineering, as well as raincoats. When asked about the price, it's twice as expensive. I decided not to buy auxiliary equipment and began to climb up the steps, but the steps were frozen, so I had to be extremely careful not to fall. From time to time, macaques come out by the roadside to ask tourists for food, and some even sneak up on tourists and steal their bags. I sped up and walked the stairs for about half an hour. The breakfast I had in the morning had already been exhausted, and my stomach was growling. I have to fill my stomach to get on the road. I spent ten yuan on the roadside, asked for a cake, added an egg, swallowed it and started over. I saw the towering old trees wrapped in silver beside the steps, and the abyss was on the left. Through the pine branches of the deep cliff, I saw the fog under the cliff, and the snowflakes kept falling and disappeared into the depths of the cliff. The Woods in the distance are shadowy in the snow and fog, and several little squirrels jump on the branches and disappear in the snow and ice. I can't help speeding up my steps. Sometimes the steps are steep, sometimes they are gentle. From time to time, I take out my mobile phone to take pictures as a souvenir, and then I check the distance to the top of the mountain according to the navigation. After another walk, I said that I suddenly saw the long-lost sunshine in the sky, and the fog gradually dispersed, and then I went up. Then I saw the clouds clear, the sky was blue, and the golden giant Pu Xian stood on the top of the mountain, shining against the golden dome of Emei behind me. This is the first time I have seen such a big one. Suddenly there was a feeling of epiphany. It was really boundless Buddhism. Going up again, I saw that the steps widened and many Buddha statues were carved on both sides. Up the steps, to the golden statue of Samantabhadra. Looking from a distance, Emei Mountain has a panoramic view. In the distance, there is a vast sea of clouds, Buddha sounds around the beam, and pilgrims gather nearby.

Leshan, adjacent to Mount Emei, is famous for its world-famous Leshan Giant Buddha. When you arrive at Mount Emei, you can't help but go to Leshan to see the Giant Buddha.

Looking from the bank of Minjiang River in Leshan City to the opposite mountain, you can see a tall sitting Buddha sitting between heaven and earth, quietly and kindly looking at the river. This is Leshan Giant Buddha. The river opposite Leshan Giant Buddha is the confluence of Dadu River, Qingyi River and Minjiang River. According to legend, shipwrecks often happened here in history. Leshan Giant Buddha was built by Haitong monk in Lingyun Temple in Tang Dynasty to control the river. Since then, there has never been a shipwreck. To see the Leshan Giant Buddha, you can take a boat down the river, look from the river, or come down from the mountain on the other side and look along the steps next to the Giant Buddha. I chose to go up the mountain to watch and reach the side of the giant Buddha. Looking down at the Leshan Giant Buddha near me from the mountain, you can see the clear facial features of the giant Buddha, as if at your fingertips. Many tourists took photos with the giant Buddha, and I also took one.

Along the plank road on the cliff on the side of the giant Buddha, winding down from the cliff, you can see the whole picture of the giant Buddha carefully from top to bottom. The plank road can only accommodate one person to walk and watch, and there are long queues of tourists. Tourists stop from time to time and walk carefully without forgetting to take photos with the giant Buddha. The Buddha sat quietly, looking at the river and showing compassion. According to legend, in the year of Wenchuan earthquake, Leshan Giant Buddha suddenly closed his eyes. It is said that because the Buddha was merciful and didn't want to see the loss of life, he closed his eyes. Down to the bottom of the cliff, looking up at the Buddha, towering into the clouds, people standing, not as good as the Buddha's feet. The incense burner in front of the Buddha is filled with incense and cigarettes, and the believers are kneeling down and praying for happiness. The box on the right is full of money, which is a donation to repair the golden body of the giant Buddha. Although I am not a Buddhist, I have also invested in 10 yuan to do my bit to protect cultural relics and historic sites.

Li Bai has a poem saying that it is difficult to get through the Shu Road and go to the sky. The development of modern transportation has also greatly promoted the development of Sichuan transportation. High-speed railways and expressways have long been commonplace in big cities, but in urban and rural areas, traffic is still not convenient. Most of the places where I work are in the countryside, so I need to find the local village committee. So, I really saw the difficulty of Shu Dao. From the map, an hour's drive often takes two or three hours to get there. The road between villages and towns often has mountains on one side and cliffs on the other. The car winds around the mountain at the foot of the mountain, and it is frightening to see the cliff through the window. The road is extremely narrow, so if you run into a car driving in the opposite direction, you must find a place to stop before you can get a car.

Fortunately, I felt the charm of the land of abundance on the spot, just in response to that sentence, a place that I don't want to go when I come.
