Yandao, northern Sichuan

In Qiaolong Township, Jialing District, Nanchong City, there is an ancient road gradually covered by weeds. It was once an important salt road connecting Guozhou and Suizhou. A few days ago, under the leadership of the local guide, the author visited this ancient road which is about to disappear.

Qiaolong, a small town to be searched for on the map of Nanchong, is just a small stronghold in the salt road, but it is also a border town in the ancient road. Perhaps because of its remoteness, this section of the ancient road is best preserved. According to the catalogue of Nanchong County, Qiaolong township is located in the southwest border of Nanchong County, with Yanxi Township in the East And "Yanxi township is named after Yanxi farm. Yanxi farm was formerly known as Yanjing river. There are 48 salt wells nearby. Because it is not conducive to Pengyan market, it was sealed in Jiaqing of Qing Dynasty." And it is generation after generation of salt men who shoulder the heavy responsibility of "Pengyan Salt marketing". They carry on their shoulders and walk out a road of survival in the mountains and forests.

According to Daoguang edition of Pengxi county annals: "there are 13 salt wells in Pengxi Salt in the Yangtze River (now Penglai) can be found in the new book of the Tang Dynasty. " During the Yuan Dynasty, people in Yuechi, Guang'an and other places transported edible salt through this road. The blood and sweat of the old "salt man" flowed along the winding bluestone path in the mountains.

Shen Fusheng's father and grandfather made a living by picking salt. According to Shen Fusheng, his father set out from home early in the morning and went to Pengxi and Yanxi via this ancient road. He went back and forth once a day. He just came home in the dark. When the salt man goes on the road, he doesn't need to bring money or dry food. At noon, he gives a handful of salt for a meal.

When the car arrives at Qiaolong, it can't move forward any more. Under the guidance of Shen Fusheng, the author bypasses the small town street and steps on the bluestone slab of Guyan road. If the starting point of the ancient salt road is placed at the bridge dragon, then the first thing to pass is the ancient dragon bridge. No one knows when the dragon bridge was built and who built it. It's just a legend. At that time, the stone bridge was built here, but it failed repeatedly. Later, with the guidance of an expert, the stone was broken horizontally, and a round puddle appeared in the stone core. In the puddle, two loach leaped out, and the flying dragon rose to heaven. After the bridge was completed, it got its name.

Further on, the riverside suddenly widened. There are many huge stones in the river bed, and there are carving marks on the stones closest to the bank. When you go into the river bed, you can see three square characters in regular script: "fangshengtang". Climbing on the carved boulders and looking at the river bed, there is a releasing pond. The crisscross stones divide the river into small ponds. At the joint of the stones and stones, wild reeds grow luxuriantly, forming a natural barrier for fish and shrimp.

Along the ancient stone road, yanglongmiao village is the last village of the ancient road in Qiaolong township. Yanglong temple was built in the Ming Dynasty. It was once full of incense. Later, it was destroyed by the fire. The local people restored the temple, but its momentum was not as strong as that of that year. In front of the temple, there is a huge stone in the river. A small stone bridge connects the river bank. Walking up the river, it is wobbly. After so many years of wind and rain, it is still in good condition. It is said that in ancient times there were sheep flying up here, and there was a deep pool at the lower right. No matter whether it was dry or wet, it never reached the bottom. It is said that the Dragon King lived in the cave at the bottom of the pool. There is a grotto on the stone wall in front of the pool, which looks like a sheep pen made of rubble. On the wall, there are official script engraved with the words "Yanglong historic site".

After leaving the Yanglong temple, the ancient road passes through the chastity archway. There is a saying that "civil officials get off the sedan chair and military officials get off the horse". According to historical records, the memorial archway was built in the 17th year of Daoguang reign of the Qing Dynasty. The imperial court praised the chastity and integrity of the widow of Luo Tianming, a local rich man. The archway is southwest to northeast, with four pillars and three bays, 5.28 meters wide and 11 meters high. There are regular script couplets on the front and back of the central pillar of the archway, and the other components are carved with patterns of flowers and birds, fish and animals. In the middle, there is a picture of two dragons playing with pearls. At the top, there are three building plaques from top to bottom. On both sides of the plaque at the top, there is the word "imperial edict" in regular script. Around the plaque, there is a picture of five dragons gathering together. The plaque at the bottom mainly describes the cause and time of building the archway. The whole archway is dignified and beautiful with extraordinary momentum.

After passing paifangling, the salt road enters Pengxi. The road ahead is still long. There are many stories about the salt man.
