Daodao laojunshan

The Yihe River was called Luanshui in ancient times, and it was named after many birds in the upper reaches, so Luanchuan wrote Luanchuan in ancient times. "Notes on Water Classics" records: "The world calls Yishui Luanshui, hence the name Luanchuan, Sichuan." In the old days, Luan and Luan were interlinked, and Luanchuan was written after the Yuan Dynasty.

Luanchuan is a county under the jurisdiction of Luoyang, but it really takes a lot of time to get to Luanchuan by car from Luoyang. Depart from Luoyang Railway Station at 7 o'clock in the evening and go all the way around Luanchuan County, which is about midnight 1 1: 30. From the satellite map, Luanchuan is blocked by mountains in the east, west and south, and Yishui flows northward through Songxian and Yichuan to Luoyang. The world-famous Longmen Grottoes in Luoyang are located on both sides of yi river, which shows the inconvenient transportation in Luanchuan.

Laojunshan, formerly known as Shi Jing, is said to be the seclusion and practice place of Laozi, the ancestor of Taoism. Laojun Mountain is at the gate of the county seat, and you can reach the fork of the scenic spot by car directly in the county seat. There is a so-called "scenic commuter car" at the fork in the road, which is actually more like a minibus driven by local people to increase their economic income. At this time, it should belong to the low season of Laojunshan tourism. When the van driver saw that I was interested in riding, he didn't plan to wait for other tourists to carpool and hurried to Laojun Mountain Scenic Area. Go all the way along the scenic highway and you will soon reach the tourist center. Speaking of this, we still have to spit out the design of tourist routes in scenic spots. After arriving at the visitor center, there is still a distance from the starting point of the scenic spot. I picked up the ticket from the visitor center, and the van driver was still waiting. He is a small man in his fifties, weighing more than 50 kilograms, with a thin body and thin arms. He answered my questions all the way. I can't keep up with the driver when I speak Henan dialect, and he often has to repeat it slowly to understand him. The driver also told me that I could go down to sightseeing bus. If I don't have a car, call him and he will pick me up.

Arriving at the entrance of the scenic spot, you can see the huge golden statue of the old gentleman. Walking slowly up the road, the scenic spot where Laojun sculpture is located is called Laozi Cultural Park. However, due to the rectification of the scenic spot, it is impossible to visit the Daxiong Hall and observe this huge statue of the old gentleman at close range. The statue of the old man is divided into two roads, the left goes to Zhong Ling cableway and mountaineering road, and the right goes to Neverland. I asked the staff that Dreamcatcher Valley had to go to the hiking trail because the road was frozen and closed.

All the way is slow. Although it is late autumn and early winter, the southern bamboo forests on both sides of the road are very common. The bamboo forest is lush, sunny in the morning, and there is no cold feeling at all. It's warm, so I won't feel too hot when I take off my clothes. When you meet a persimmon tree with no leaves on the roadside, it makes you feel that winter has come.

After crossing the cableway, going to the hiking route proves that the cableway is a wise choice, so I will not describe it here. Along the way, I will pass several slaves of Taoist temples, and soon I will reach the real intersection of mountaineering. However, the intersection was blocked by the railing of the scenic spot. There was a notice saying that the road ahead was long and uphill, but it was time-consuming but there was no scenic spot. Visitors were asked to return to the mountain by cableway. Asked the staff of the nearby temple, he told me that he could climb the mountain on foot, so he climbed over the railing and set foot on the climbing road. In fact, the mountaineering route is not a step-by-step hike, but a road paved with cement, and cars can go all the way up the mountain. Presumably, the scenic spot suspended sightseeing bus and closed the climbing route. There are no lush bamboo forests at the foot of the mountain on both sides of the hiking route, but tall broad-leaved forests are replaced. Dead leaves are piled up on both sides of the road, and brown crowns are everywhere. Some trees that are still struggling in the cold wind of late autumn still have some yellow leaves, and the refreshing scene of autumn is everywhere. Only intermittent evergreen pine and cypress provide a little green. Winding all the way up from the valley, just as the notice said, there are no scenic spots all the way, and the mountains along the way are the giant mountains that cover the sky. After several bends, the altitude rose a lot. There are no big trees with yellow leaves on the roadside, and there are bare trunks all around. On the way, I can vaguely hear some birds singing, the rustling of squirrels running around in the forest, stop to have a rest and listen, and the knocking of building under the mountain can also spread to the foot of the mountain. The way up the mountain is on the sunny side. It is sunny and there are no trees. But when I turned out of the valley, I immediately entered the valley in the shade. As soon as the sun was blocked by the mountain, my body immediately felt cold, and the cold wind blew on my sweat, which made me feel unbearable cold all over. There was no one on the road, and I felt lonely and cold. The whole mountain forest seems to have been swept away by itself. The previous step was warm as spring, and the next step was cold in winter, so I had to put on the down jacket that I took off at the foot of the mountain.

It took a lot of time to get out of the shade and stop to have a rest. I can't hear the knocking at the foot of the mountain, nor can I hear the sound of animal activities between the mountains. I only heard the shortness of breath and the whistling wind. All the trees in front of me are standing naked, and the sun shines on me, so I can only feel a little warmth. What a cold autumn wind scene. Here, I have to think deeply about how I rode a green cow into this mountain forest to retire 2500 years ago, and why I retired into this mountain forest.

Shortly after the trip, I saw a lot of snow on the roadside. Looking up at the mountain, the snow was scattered on the dark brown mountain like a blank space in Chinese painting, and the mountain wind blew on the dead branches, urging me to move on. I soon passed a hill, and when I looked up, I could already see the cableway station not far away, and the cable car running line was not high above my head. Bypassing a boulder, a girl wearing a brown woolen coat suddenly appeared in front of 100 meters. Soon, she drifted around the corner and suddenly disappeared. There was no one along the way, and I couldn't help wondering if I was blind. When I reached the corner, I saw a sharp turn. The withered shrubs taller than people blocked my view. Girls come and go in a hurry, just as the air suddenly disappears. I stepped up my pace all the way. After that sharp turn, that girl was not far from my eyes, and I didn't have the strength to keep up the speed. Soon the distance between me and her slowly lengthened.

Then, she kept walking in front at a constant speed, and I followed slowly. She seems to think that I have ulterior motives and didn't mean to slow down all the way. We didn't say hello in tandem and remained silent. I couldn't help looking at the girl in front. Who is she? What does it look like? From where? Why do you want to go up the mountain alone? Should I say hello to her abruptly? Just as the distance was getting closer and closer, the girl suddenly turned right and entered the forest path where sightseeing was forbidden in the scenic spot. After catching up, I stood by the side of the road and watched her climb up along the dirt road in the forest. I watched her climb up step by step. She didn't look back at me, and I didn't bother her. Soon, she disappeared into the forest. I think it's too dangerous to take this shortcut and still follow the paved road. Bypassing the mountain, I saw the girl dragging me for a long time.

Maybe she was wary of me and I didn't step up. We walked in tandem for a period of time in this tacit understanding, and soon passed a tortuous mountain road. After passing a stone gate, we arrived at the terminal of Zhong Ling cableway. The girl didn't know where to go. The ropeway may be only a few minutes away, but it took me four hours to get up. This is not a cost-effective idea.

After a short rest, turn left and go up the mountain for half an hour to reach Snake Cliff. Snake Cliff is looking forward to it. Gu Song is in the clouds, and the cliff is about to tilt. It's really magnificent. Snake Cliff is a place to watch the sunset, but at that time, the sun had just set in the west. Imagine that whenever the sun sets, the magnificent sunset glow reflects the strange peaks and rocks, giving off strange light and colorful scenery. It can be said that "the afterglow shines on Qian Shan, and the valley is full of uneven paintings".

Looking at the magnificent scenery of Sheshen Cliff, I had lunch and began to climb the peak again. Everything is unintentional. After walking for less than a few minutes, I found the girl sitting on a bench in another Shesheyan observation deck, bathed in the warm winter sunshine, so I went over to say hello to her. She is a junior majoring in tourism. She just slipped and cut her hand by taking a shortcut, so I took a band-aid from my bag and bandaged it for her slightly. After chatting for a while, the two of them set out together to paint a screen in Shili. She told me that she was anxious to go back to Luoyang today and had an exam tomorrow. She really wants to go to the top of the mountain to see the scenery on the propaganda map of Laojun Mountain. I smiled. I might as well take the cableway up the hill. I think I have reached the top of the mountain now. Talking and chatting all the way, I quickly passed through a tunnel and came to Shili Painting Screen.

Ten-mile painting screen is a peak forest landscape, like a knife and axe, jagged, dotted with snow in distant mountains, like swimming in a China ink painting. Shili painting screen is a bit like the Sunshine Coast of Li San Gallery in Sanqingshan. Comparatively speaking, Sanqingshan is richer in landscape. Sanqingshan Mountain is located in the south, with trees among the rocks, which is more colorful. Laojun Mountain is more majestic. Personally, I think Shili painting screen is not as good as Sanqingshan Sunshine Coast.

At the corner of Shili Huaping, the girl hinted that it was getting late and she needed to catch the cableway down to Luoyang. I said it's not far from the top of the mountain, so I should be able to reach the top of the mountain and return. She hesitated for a moment, but insisted on going down the mountain. I no longer advise her to climb to the top of the mountain. I suggest adding her WeChat and sending her a video of the top of the mountain. It is also a kind of beauty to see her reluctant to say a few words of regret. We will make up after the exam is successful, and then separate.

It's not a steep hiking trail all the way, but just after Shili Gallery, the sun was blocked by clouds, and the wet water vapor in the mountain came into contact with the rapidly cooling rocks, which quickly liquefied and condensed, and a white fog surged at the foot of the mountain, which quickly spread to the mountain with the mountain wind. A few minutes later, the fog appeared in front of us. Along this path, you will soon reach Taibaipo service area. I could have climbed high and looked out, but at this time the fog filled my eyes. You can't even see the trees in the distance except the small shrubs on the observation deck, let alone the mountains in the distance.

Don't stop at Taibai slope for a minute, just follow the path on the ridge until you reach the top of the mountain. There are few tourists on the road, but there are many workers who build roads for tourist areas. They used baskets to carry building materials along the mountain road to Taibaipo service area. I met an aunt carrying cement on the road and chatted. She said that 20 yuan can be taken from Jinding carrying a bag of cement to Taibaipo service area in front, and soon they will be off work. It's hard to remember, but it's also a considerable income.

Ten minutes' walk to the top of Funiu Mountain is the highest peak of Laojun Mountain. Originally, looking eastward was the Jinding of Genting Fairy Palace, but there was fog everywhere and nothing could be seen. Stopped for a minute and walked to the Jinding in the East. It's less than half an hour from here to Jinding, and you can reach Jinding by turning around the worse gate. The Jinding Taoist complex in Laojun Mountain was built on the top of the mountain. The two highest halls are called Liang Baotai and Yuhuangding respectively, and the lowest one is Wumu Jindian. The three halls surround Taiqing Taoist Temple, laojunmiao and Moral Mansion. There is a flat land behind Laojun Temple, and there is snow on the ground. As the book says, "there are four seasons in one mountain, and different days in ten miles." The ice in the northern foot of Junshan Mountain has not disappeared, and the sunshine in Lishui is gorgeous. " The staff swept the snow out of several roads, and I went to the feldspar bench to rest for a while. Looking up at the sky, the mountain wind has blown away a lot of dense fog, and the blue sky is exposed overhead. Looking west at Funiu Mountain, you can vaguely see the mountain. I decided to try my luck back in Funiu Mountain.

Although the fog on the top of Funiu Mountain has dissipated a lot, the two Jinding on the top of Dongshan Mountain are still hazy in the fog. Looking west, the sun is hidden behind the dense fog, and the sun shines on the dense fog, which is a scene of auspicious light all over the sky. The cold mountain wind kept blowing on me, and the heat quickly lost. I have to walk up and down on the top of the mountain in case I feel too cold. After waiting for a long time, the sun radiates golden light from the thick fog, and I feel very warm. In a short time, the dense fog suddenly dissipated, and the scene of the fairy palace on the distant cloud jumped into view. Jinding reflects the dazzling sunlight and looks dazzling. Standing on the top of the mountain, the sea reaches the horizon as the shore, and the mountain is the highest man-made peak. Laojun Mountain is magnificent. "Stop at the peak and look around, but you can look at Qin Que in the west, Chu in the south, Longmen in the north and Shaolin in the east", which is really unspeakable. Beautiful scenery is like a flash in the pan. After a while, the sun was covered by clouds, the mountain wind was wrapped in dense fog, and the fairy palace was hidden in dense fog just now.

It was near dusk when I returned to Jinding, and I found a bed to live in Taiqing Taoist Temple. After settling down, I'm going to climb the Jade Emperor to watch the sunset. Climb the Jade Emperor Peak along the steep snow-covered stairs, looking at Funiu Mountain in the west like a horse with its head held high and jumping into the dense fog in the distance. The mountain wind filled my eyes with the fog blowing from the west. The fog came at me like ten thousand fine horses and galloped with the wind. Suddenly, the setting sun seemed to tear a hole in the dense fog, and the golden light fell from the sky and fell on the Funiu Mountain in the distance. The dense fog on the mountain suddenly became clear. The dense fog from the southern foothills really made a sudden attack. After crossing the top of Funiu Mountain, it plunged into the mountains at the northern foothills and became a spectacular sea of clouds.

Before the fog cleared, the sun set, only a crescent moon hung obliquely in the blue sky, and it immediately darkened around, and there was cold silence everywhere, except for the cold wind that roared by.

When I returned to the Taoist temple, I saw another tourist coming to my place. I hastily used a bucket of instant noodles for dinner, and after some greetings, I turned out to be a fellow villager in Jiangxi. After chatting for a while, we went to visit the Wumujindian together. I really can't stand the cold everywhere, so I just got into bed and curled up to keep warm. When I was asleep, the door was gently opened. I got up and saw that two Taoist priests, an old man and a young man, came in to greet us. Two Taoist priests came over. At first, they exchanged pleasantries. The old Taoist priest basically has nothing to say, but the young Taoist priest is eloquent. After we slowly opened the chatterbox, we began to listen to the Taoist priest's excuse. What impressed me most was that he divided people into saints, sages and mortals. He explained that as mortals, we must "die young, cultivate self-cultivation", be determined to be firm and unique, and strive to move forward in the face of suffering, and we must not change our original intention because of our early death. When people cultivate their morality and temper their conduct, they must face it with the mentality of asking only about cultivation and not about harvest.

Soon, it was already late at night. After the two Taoist priests left, we went out to have a rest together. As it was very cold outside, the ninja had to put on his coat. When I passed the flat land in laojunmiao, I looked up at the sky. The moon is gone, and the sky is full of jewel-like stars embedded in the deep blue sky. I can't help feeling that I haven't seen so many stars for a long time.

There was no dream the next night, and the alarm clock in my hometown rang at half past six. I got up, got dressed and ran out. I didn't expect it to be foggy outside. It seems that the sunrise is hopeless. After a while, I went back to sleep, and soon the Taoist called us up to watch the sunrise. Surprised and happy, I quickly put on my clothes and trotted out.

At this time, the sun has already jumped out of the horizon, the rising sun has turned white, but the mountains are hidden in the clouds, and the vast sea of clouds is flowing under our feet. This scene is magnificent and unusual, just as the poet Li Bai said-"an impenetrable shadow, the sun shines on the gold and silver platform." Wearing rainbow clothes and riding the wind, the queen of all clouds came and fell one after another. " Looking around, the clouds cover thousands of miles and the fog locks the peaks. It's like standing in the blue sea of Wang Yang, where the green peaks are looming, just like crossing the Qian Fan, where hundreds of trees are waiting to flow.

Soon I packed my things and went down the mountain. The mountain road is different from the road when I came. You don't need to go through the landscape of Shili painting screen, and you will come all the way down from Taoist temple, and soon you will reach the tunnel at the entrance of Shili painting screen. Looking at that tunnel, I can't help thinking of the girl yesterday. If she doesn't walk up the mountain or draw a screen directly, she will certainly be able to climb to the summit and see the scenery of Jinding that she wants to see.

Here, go straight along Shangshan Road, and the desperate Panshan Road comes to the entrance of the scenic spot.

There are no scenic spots in sightseeing bus here. I dialed the master's mobile phone yesterday. I thought it would take a long time. Unexpectedly, it passed in more than ten minutes. I really appreciate the simplicity and trustworthiness of people here.

The trip to Laojunshan basically ends here. After I finished writing the Tao Te Ching, I went out to Hangu Pass in the west and fled to Laojun Mountain. I won't ask the world again, but I will find a way to bid farewell to Laojun Mountain and enter the world of mortals. See you later.
