Chapter 2 A first exploration of Qiandao Lake

Qiandao Lake is now a 5a-level scenic spot. The song "Qiandao Lake My Love" by a certain star named Cai has sung the voices of many old immigrants, but there are opportunities and dangers hidden under this clear water.

The hairy watermelon ranks among the top three scary things I have ever seen in my life. If there are any local veteran fishermen, you should know that what I am telling you is true.

seven days later

"Yunfeng, look at it! This place is so beautiful!" Xiaoxuan said excitedly.

I looked at the scenery ahead and said, "Yes, it is indeed beautiful. This is a good place to retire."

My vocabulary is limited, so I can only describe the scene as a lake and sky of the same color, with clear water and white clouds. The Qiandao Lake in front of me is so big that I can’t see the end at a glance. The few of us standing on the shore are too small.

This place used to belong to the territory of Danyang County, and Chuncheng was established probably in the fifth year of Jian'an in the Eastern Han Dynasty. Let alone big cities like Hangzhou and Suzhou, if you want to say which place in the county has the most powerful scholars, it must be here.

In such a big place, from ancient times to before it was flooded, a total of 3 top scholars and 308 Jinshi were produced. This is not counting the second place in the top prize, but also the geniuses of San Yuan and Shang Ren.

"Tongqiao Tiejing Xiaojinshan, Shixia Academy Huolongshan, five lions live in Jiumen Bridge, and half an acre of square pond educates literary heroes."

In the past, not only the scholars here were great, but the martial arts practitioners were also great. It can be said that both men and women were brave. Fang La was from here. Chen Shuozhen, the first woman who dared to call herself emperor, also rebelled here. And the tombs where these literary heroes and military generals were buried after their deaths were

Most of the graves have also sunk under the water in front of me.

We still use the old method, first find a place to stay, and then Brother Yu and I approach the locals as tourists and get information from the local population.

I said I was here for a trip, so I spent five hundred yuan to find an old fisherman in his sixties who owned a boat as a tour guide. His name was Zhou Yingtai.

The old man accepted the money from me and said happily, "Young man, you two have come to the right place for me. Old man, I grew up here and know every plant and tree here."

Twenty years ago, no one cared about boating on the lake during the day, so we boarded his boat and played in the lake.

Brother Yu pointed into the water. I looked over and saw that the water was shallow in some places. Standing on the boat, I could even see broken bricks and tiles underneath.

"Uncle, you are a local, didn't you immigrate?" I asked.

The old man rowed the boat and said with a smile, "Moved! I didn't go to Jiangxi, I moved closer! But I'm not very lucky. If I had moved to Xiaoshan Airport, I, old Zhou, would have been a multi-millionaire!"

He laughed and said, "I remember when I was only twelve or thirteen years old, my mother dragged me away with two quilts on her shoulders. The slogan everyone shouted at that time was: Bring less old furniture! Bring more new ideas!"

Brother Yu asked, "Old man, the country you moved to should have subsidized you a lot, right?"

"Hey! Don't mention it! At that time, the housing subsidy was based on the head of the family! One hundred and fifty yuan was given to each head of the family! It was paid all at once!"

I said, "That's quite a lot. My monthly salary wasn't much at the time."

He nodded first, then shook his head and said, "At that time, the water came down several days faster than the government planned. If people don't leave, they will drown. No matter how much money we give, we are not willing to leave our homes and become refugees, but the country has not forgotten us."

, this is not what the new national policy came out last year, which provides each household with a subsidy of 600 yuan a year, and they can receive it for 20 years."

I smiled and said, "What a good thing, young people are short of money to find a wife."

"Getting a wife? Do you expect to pay 600 yuan a year to get a wife?"

He suddenly put down the oar and said excitedly, "At that time, Jiangxi was rich! Jiangxi Mountains
There are many fields! And we in Zhejiang are poor! So the country resettled us Chun'an people in Jiangxi! Now the situation is different! Jiangxi is not as developed as Zhejiang! And the bride price for marrying a daughter-in-law in Jiangxi is even higher! The starting price is at least 100,000 yuan!"

"Uncle, don't get excited! You can't do it. Everything has passed."

I quickly tried to persuade him, because I was really afraid that the old man would get too excited and get angry.

Seeing that there was no one around, Brother Yu gave me a wink.

I took off my shirt and said with a smile that it was too hot and I wanted to go into the water to cool off. The man didn't stop me, he just told me that the water was cold and not to go into the deep water.

The water in Qiandao Lake is very cold in summer! That kind of coldness is abnormal! It’s bone-chillingly cold!

I didn't dare to dive too deep, so I just swam a couple of times.

I saw a bluestone road at the bottom of the water, and a very short adobe house like in the past. I also vaguely saw a collapsed stone archway. Colorful small fish and a large number of aquatic plants surrounded the stone archway. Look.

It looks mysterious.

After inquiry, I learned that this water area used to belong to "Chayuan Town". The stone archway faintly visible under the water was a chastity archway on the North Street of Chayuan Town in the past. It is said that it was set up by locals for a woman named Liu during the Guangxu period.

It's been a little over two hundred years.

The guide Lao Zhou told me that there are at least one or two hundred similar stone arches under Qiandao Lake. Some can still be seen a few years ago, while some can no longer be seen as the water level has risen in the past two years.

The boat rowed in the lake for a while, and suddenly, a strange "bang" sound came from the bottom of the boat!

I thought I had hit a rock, but unexpectedly, the man rowing the boat, Lao Zhou, changed his expression. He slapped the water with his oar! He yelled, "Dead fish! Get away! Even the locals dare to stop the boat!"

I asked if we hit a fish?

Lao Zhou said with a black face that it was just a fish! He also said that the fish here are generally bigger! Sometimes they will hit the boat!

When Brother Yu and I returned to the hotel, we found a tattered Chun'an County Chronicle from somewhere and were studying it.

Most of the Chun'an County Chronicles on the market are from the 1990 edition, but the first one to look at is the old County Chronicle from the Guangxu period. There are many notes on ancient buildings and places of interest in the County Chronicle.

Our treasure hunt is not a blind search! It is through on-the-spot investigation and consulting ancient books! Define an area and then search in this area.

For example, it is recorded in the old county annals that there used to be a place called "Xiaojin Mountain", and Huizhou people called it Beauty Island. There was a cave to the east of Xiaojin Mountain. Legend has it that it was Fangla's Tibetan Soldier Cave. There were hidden flowers in the cave that were not used back then.

Completed a large amount of military pay.

There is also a wooden bridge, which the locals call Tongqiao. Shang Ren's grave is located 30 meters north of the bridge. It is said that a few years ago when clearing the mud, stone figures and horses were accidentally dug out.

There is also such a description in the old county chronicle that caught my attention.

"There are many mountains and mountains, beyond the beautiful mountains, and the momentum is like a bow. Some gentlemen call it Fang's ancestral hall, thinking that it is a celebration, but it is actually a cemetery."

After some research, the boss and I agreed. The county chronicle described this place as the joint burial tomb of Fang Hong, the prefect of Danyang Jun in the Western Han Dynasty, and his wife.

Also sunk in the water is the thousand-year-old ancient temple "Xiaonanhai". There are thousands of gilt-bronze Buddhas of various sizes in the ancient temple. During the Ming Dynasty, Zhu Yuanzhang worked as a sweeping monk in Xiaonanhai. There is a Xiaonanhai on September 19th.

During the Opening of Light Festival, at that time, every Opening of Light Festival would attract tens of thousands of people to burn incense, pray for blessings and do business. Counting the time, this little Nanhai has sunk under the water for more than 50 years.

What I mean by these words is that underwater is a treasure cave that no one knows about, and there are so many places to express it! There are so many that we are not sure where to start for a while. Qiandao Lake is now a 5a-level scenic spot, and a certain Cai

The song "Thousand Island Lake My Love" by the star sings the voices of many old immigrants, but there are opportunities and dangers hidden under this clear water, just like the hairy watermelon, the scariest thing I have ever seen in my life

It can be ranked in the top three in front of me. If there are any local experienced fishermen, you should know that what I said is true.
