brief introduction

Ganyu District of Lianyungang City is full of historic sites in the pre Qin period. Jiagu mountain in Jiashan township is said to be the place where Confucius met the Marquis of Qi Dynasty. In the Ming Dynasty, there were temples, Shenghua Pavilion, Kuixing Pavilion, Jiagu academy and other buildings commemorating Confucius. Jiagu mountain is a deep valley with verdant trees. The wind blows through the stone cave, whistling as birds singing. It is as if it is at a distance, forming the "Jiagu yingti", one of the eight sceneries in Ganyu. Now Jiashan Township takes advantage of the local mountainous area and vigorously develops tea production. Its tea color is clear and mellow, and it has its own characteristics.

In the northwest of Ganyu District, there is a mountain named Jiagu mountain. It's just an ordinary hill. It's not very high, it's not steep, and there's no famous temple. For thousands of years, it has been standing here in a primitive static state, waiting for you to approach.

"The valley is a beautiful place because of the holy trace, and the stone is like the sound of a warbler.". A glorious history, the sound of warblers singing in the mountains, I do not know how many literati and poets praise it, and how many visitors stop for it. And every time I come near, I just want to find a place to clean my heart which has been polluted by common things for a long time.

On the South half slope of Jiagu mountain, the ruins of the alliance between Qi and Lu at the end of the spring and Autumn period are left in the waste grass and rocks. Debris and broken tiles can be found everywhere, and the trace of that year can only be discerned after thousands of years of immersion. Fortunately, during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty, a stone tablet was left here where Confucius met the Marquis of Qi.

Thoughts on tour

On a day of wind and calendar, choose to climb up the mountain behind this monument. The mountain here is getting steeper and steeper. You must grasp the wild vines before you can move forward. The fragrance of pines and flowers is blowing in front of us, and the sound of warblers in the thunder of pines seems to be pleasant. This is the unique feature of this mountain, "the warblers in Jiagu". In fact, "there is no need for warblers to sing, and the wind blows on the rocks to sing.". It is the sound of the mountain wind blowing through the cave or rock gap, which is similar to the chirp of the yellow warbler. Coupled with the reverberation of the ravines and the mixing of the pines and waves, it becomes the magical effect of no warbler crowing.

All the way hand and foot, sweat grains such as beans, rattan pull stone trip, waist acid leg soft, finally to the top of the mountain. Fresh mountain breeze blowing, refreshing, limbs gradually smooth. Looking around, we can see that there are many small trees and dense forests. A mountain haze, which floats freely, lingers on the waist of the mountain like smoke. The mountain forest is full of ink, and the terraced fields are far away. The winding mountain road is like a long snake swimming slowly. The clear water is like a piece of jade in the palm of your hand. You can see all the sceneries in front of you.

Spit dirty deep suction, put a throat roar, soul stirring, people in the mountains will be like a fairy couple, abandon worldly affairs. Forget yourself. Lie in a corner, and mountains, and heaven, and earth, and trees, life and life, face to face, zero distance to do a deep spiritual dialogue. At this moment, from the inside to the outside, I'm purified. I'm just a tree, a bird, a stone, a grain of soil, a gust of wind, a story, a wisp of mountain wind, embracing the soul of the mountain, turning into a butterfly, dancing in the music of Qi musicians' plot, looking forward to the gaze of Duke Lu Ding and Confucius, and telling them the secret in advance.

If time can make that glorious history freeze again in front of today's eyes, I will have a long talk with the sage and listen to his teachings face to face. He also asked him, was it because of your wisdom and erudition or the aura of this mountain that the war of awakening rain and blood in those years could turn the war into jade and silk in an instant?

Approaching the east side of the mountain top, knock on the huge ring stone that is suspected to have fallen when Nuwa mended the sky, and make a wish devoutly, so that the wish can be transmitted to ancient times with its sound. I seem to hear the wisdom of the saints, from far and near, long and lasting, from ancient times to the present.
