Bridge of the Celestial

Bridge of the Celestial

Search on Baidu map, there are 16 Xianrenqiao villages in the people's Republic of China.

It is said that during the reign of Dayu in ancient times, Dayu divided the world into nine states. At that time, it was convenient for officials to exercise jurisdiction, and most of the boundaries were divided according to the direction of mountains and rivers. In order to expand the area under their rule as much as possible, the principal officials also built the plank road with the help of immortals and went through the old storehouse in secret. They worked hard on their own, thus deducing scenes of popular and popular folktales. The story of Xianrenqiao in xilingjiao village of Xinchang township is a striking example.

origin

The story begins like this: in ancient times, when Changshan County was divided into counties adjacent to Chun'an County, there was a difference between the land lord and the local immortal. The land lord advocated that the boundary should be the height of the mountain (that is, the shangjiepai natural village in Tangguan village of Xinqiao township), while the immortal advocated that the boundary should be the water flow. Two people you come and I go, from the dawn dew to the stars twinkle, fight red, still no one can persuade who, two people hold one's own opinion. So they agreed on a future date.

On his way home, the immortal thought to himself, "the Lord of the earth is determined to go his own way and take the mountain as the boundary, which is far from his own opinion. This stalemate, not to mention tomorrow, may not be solved even in three or five years." seeing that he is about to arrive at home, suddenly he has a plan in his mind and laughs spontaneously So the immortal pressed the cloud head and came to Zhusha river of Baima Township in Chun'an County. He carried the stones to the east of Xiling foot of Xinchang Township in Changshan County overnight (now the site of Xianrenqiao bridge) and started the orogeny.

In other words, the Lord of the earth thought that the immortal was sure to follow his own ideas, so he went to the earth Temple happily. On the way, he suddenly felt his eyelids were jumping violently, and he didn't feel worried. He thought that the immortal would go against his will and do harm to himself? To think of this situation is to move forward. The land master rushed to Zhusha River and visited everywhere. I heard a strange story from a village woman. The village woman said: "just now I saw a man driving a group of ducks on the east side of the river in the middle of the night

A poem about Xianrenqiao in Xunwu County

"Immortal bridge, Bodhisattva"

Geng Yi Meng Chun climbed Xianrenqiao Zhai to sleep in the village and wrote CI.

Lingxiao cave,

The rolling clouds and rocks are on the way.

Hold your head high and be immortal,

Raise your glass to nine days.

Making tea and chatting about Jiangwu,

Borrow the couch to stay in the immortal place.

When I chant to the moon,

The words of Shu Quan and Shu Kan.

Xinhuang County Bridge

brief introduction

Located in the western border of Hunan Province, Gaozhai village, dawanluo Township, 9 km west of Xinhuang Dong Autonomous County, at the junction of Hunan and Guizhou provinces. In the fifth year of Daoguang (1825) of the Qing Dynasty, Huang Zhou Ting Zhi was published, with its scenery: "the two peaks are facing each other, the valley is deep and deep, about two or three feet wide, the stones are built into geese teeth, hanging on the ditch like a line of precipitous force, and you want to fall but not fall. The tourists were terrified. There is a hole under the bridge, called Longtan. The origin of Lutuo is like a mirage separated from the bridge. " It is said that this stone bridge was built by an immortal overnight, so it is called "immortal bridge". Xianren bridge is one of the most famous scenic spots in Xinhuang county. In history, many poets and poets came here to chant poems and write Fu, and some monks lived here for life because they were infatuated with its scenery. In the past, there were poems praising the scenery: the scenery is lofty, regardless of the year, the boundless scenery is difficult to pass. Horseshoe stone path to stay in the mountain, wild goose teeth flying spring sound Su string. Surrounded by green peaks, the three ring ancient cave is surrounded by green smoke. Red waist looking forward to wave lying, peach blossom do not have a day.

The bridge is a red sandstone stone, 26 meters long, 1 meter thick, 67 meters high, and 1.5-1.8 meters wide. The bridge deck is smooth and smooth as a knife. It flies between the two cliffs. The stone walls on both sides of the bridge are covered with wind house grass and dense miscellaneous trees. There is a spring flowing in the grass, which makes those who cross the bridge feel palpitating. The genesis of Xianren bridge is similar to that of Nantianmen bridge, the first bridge in the world and Tianqiao bridge. It is formed by cracking and caving from soft rock under the guidance of two groups of oblique fissures. It is made of two natural stone beams across the clock water. The bridge hole is triangular. The boat is here. If the water is small, it can sail. If the water is large, it can lie on the masts. There is a hole beside the hole, which is called Taoyuan hole. The holes are connected with each other, which is very strange. The bridge is surrounded by jagged rocks and climbing vines. There are also fairy cave, fairy horn and fairy mirror, which are full of mythological color. It is no wonder that the predecessors wrote a poem praising: "the steep rocks seem to fan open, and a bend of water breaks the smoke. Don't ask Yu Lang about Taoyuan cave. There is a refuge for the Qin people. " This rare natural stone arch bridge is one of the eight ancient sceneries in Guidong. According to legend, there is music playing under the bridge late at night, such as the music of Juntian, so it is called "Xianqiao Tianle". Huang Yougong, a native of Guidong city in the Qing Dynasty, once wrote: "the natural moat can be filled, and a bridge will lead to the north and South; the land and the dragon are continuous, and the two sides are connected, so he can return to the past." However, due to the fact that the bridge is located on the top of a mountain with an altitude of 1000 meters and the steep and difficult road, the bridge has been forgotten in people's memory for a long time.

After the establishment of the Tourism Bureau of Guidong County, a large number of investigations have been carried out on the tourism resources of Guidong County, and tourism clues have been collected from the society. The local people have provided clues to the Tourism Bureau. According to the materials mastered by the author, this natural stone arch bridge has achieved the highest altitude, the longest span and the most sunken terrain in southern Hunan. The author also urgently hopes that relevant experts can make further research on this bridge.

legend

Xianren bridge and baiheyan are all 3 kilometers south of Huaihua City. The so-called Xianren bridge is the Tiansheng bridge of limestone. It is said that a long time ago, immortals built a bridge on Wushui river for the benefit of the people. When the bridge was almost finished, the farmer rooster on the opposite bank suddenly crowed in the middle of the night. The immortals mistakenly thought it was daybreak and were afraid of being caught by mortals, so they had to leave the unfinished bridge and go back to heaven. On the other side of the "bridge" is baiheyan. There is a rock standing on the beach, which looks like a white crane spreading its wings. When the breeze blows, the white crane's shadow moves, just like walking in the water. It is a beautiful view of the city.
