Nanyang, the city of Nanyang
Nandu is a place of beauty, and Wuque is across the western gate. This place is full of heroes and heroines, and it is far from being climbed. Tao Zhu and Wu Ewe, their fame spreads between the sky and the land. The city of red sun, hooting eagle white river bay. Who knows the Crouching Dragon guest, long chanting sad sideburns. (excerpt)
This is the great poet of the Tang Dynasty, Li Bai, who was exiled from China, sighed at Nanyang, a place of prosperity. Li Bai walked on famous mountains and rivers all his life, arrogant and romantic, but only to Nanyang so bowed to, several times over this place, in Nanyang friends Cen Fuzi, Dan Qusheng, after drinking, soundly waved on his immortal "will enter the wine" "the Yellow River water from the sky, running to the sea will never come back ..."
Boating on the White River and walking on Dushan, while praising the rich culture of this ancient city, I am full of frustration.
How many people in the aria of the history of the people have gone, Li Bai has gone, only to leave this sigh of relief in the sky of history, but also y branded in the hearts of Nanyang people.
1? Spirit of the earth
Grew up in Nanyang, only to know the doorstep of a very long street Xiguan, winding through the town, and then to the east and west of the infinite extension. The first thing you need to know is that you have to be able to get the best out of your life, and that's why you need to be able to get the best out of your life, and that's why you need to be able to get the best out of your life.
After I grew up a little, I rode my bike alone to the outskirts of the countryside on the eighteen-mile hill, looking at the winding and undulating concreted highway meandering to the west, stretching out into the unseen distance, the heart generates unlimited reverie, far away from the mountains, and what kind of a world is it?
Young read tirelessly, but also do not seek to understand, only praise Li Bai's "sword to go to the country, resigned from the relatives traveled" fast and easy, finally one day in a hundred turns after reading a thousand sails, I want to go back to Nanyang rich land on the traces of the history left behind to unlock the great poets in the chest of that millennium a sigh of relief.
When the majestic Qinling Mountains to the southeast all the way to the FuNiu Mountain, the terrain collapsed, and then again from the southeast corner of the collapse of the lofty into the TongBaiMountains, the strong eastward surge into the vast rolling DabieMountains. In the middle of this collapsed place, is Nanyang.
A trickle of water flows eastward from the northern foot of Tongbai Mountain, where Dayu ruled the water, and becomes the "source of the Huai River".
Another river emerges from a gravelly depression in the high mountains of Funiu, then meanders southward to become the Baihe River, which, after encircling and kissing Nanyang, heads southward and injects itself into the Han River at Xiangfan to join the Yangtze River.
Legend has it that Zhang Guolao rode a donkey through this place, the little donkey inner joy, pulled a slip of donkey poop egg, it formed a sheep mountain, mill mountain, five doshan and so on the northeast and west of the three sides of the mountains, south to the open "bowl" of the basin, so the ancient name of the "wan". The location of the dangerous geography, naturally became the ancient soldiers north of the Central Plains, south of Jingxiang, west of Guanzhong throat and natural barriers.
Coincidentally, Nanyang is located in the north-south watershed zone of China, with a mild climate, four distinct seasons, autumn rice and winter snow.
This is really the best habitat for life, it is such a unique natural geography, the Cretaceous period, this was the home of the dinosaurs.
Then the ground plants flourished, large dinosaurs on the ground at ease, the sky pterodactyls flying, endless, free reproduction, leaving a large number of dinosaur eggs, warmed by this basin, take care of. To this day these age-old fossils are treasured in the Xixia Museum in Nanyang with its magnificent scenery, becoming a look back to the distant past.
Of course, these are just a natural geographic location on the space of the grace of God, more often than not, I want to explore the Nanyang ancestors from the dimension of time, after all, human activity is destined to be precipitated in the bowl of what, those who have happened, is happening and will happen later will bring what meaning and revelation.
2? Han ancestors
The people who have come to Nanyang will be the city's Han style of the ancient charm of the spring like a bath, a cross into the White River Bridge, is sandwiched between the road and the majestic Han Que, the green dragon, white tiger, Zhu Bird Xuanwu flourished and flaunted. When you walk around the city, you can feel the dense Chu culture here romantic atmosphere, people introverted and sunshine, modest and determined, then, why the Han wind will be here for thousands of years and not dissipate?
Historically, Nanyang has had two heyday, and at that time in China are at the pinnacle of the position, are closely related to the human migration and mingling.
Nanyang, ancient China's south, but also because of the south of the FuNiu, north of the Han River and named, is still a remote barbaric area. When I was a child, I went to my aunt's house in Shaanxi, who had fled the famine in the early years, and when I met her, she exclaimed that I was a "little barbarian", so it is clear that the memory of the folk is not dissipated because of the millennium.
In 221 B.C., a group of people with hair rolled up in buns, hats and pants, with wives and children, emaciated and covered with dust, were driven on the ancient dirt road to Nanyang, they were the tycoons, merchants and handicraftsmen of the six former kingdoms and belonged to the unprofessionals of orthodox farming. These brainy but opportunistic fellows will be forced to migrate to a remote corner of the country in order to leave behind a purely grand unified farming society with long-lasting peace.
This was the "relocation of miscreants to Nanyang".
Qin Shi Huang did not expect, these in his majestic gaze in the garbage alien, difficult and stubborn people, but is the hand to bring wealth, culture, technology to this small city of the social elite, although they are uprooted from their hometowns, remote exile, can not be helped, but when they settled down, but naughty to show the talent of the bones of the unruly and defiant.
These unruly people wearing shackles knocking this Fenrun basin, this collision, not only changed the local people's habits, but also far-reaching impact on the character of the local people. Nanyang people thus become open-minded from obedience, from dull to become witty, from ignorance and become cultural, the small town began to bustle up.
By that, the most advanced Han iron smelting in ancient times came into being, and the city was adjacent to the city, with a busy flow of people and a developed handicraft industry, which jumped to become the most economically active at that time, one of the five metropolises on a par with Luoyang, Chengdu and other such old cities. Of course, Qin Shi Huang, lying on the dragon bed in the north, was happy to see it.
Wafangzhuang outside Nanyang's North Pass in what is now called Hanye Village is where the Han iron smelting site is located -- and what a time it was! "Furnace fire shines in the sky and earth, the red star messes with purple smoke", through the historical smoke cloud, I seem to be able to see those ancient people in the blazing fire to move around the shadow, but also to see the sky of the obscurantist era by the furnace fire reflected red.
If that time is a foreign culture to bring this basin of timing, then the East Han Guangwu Emperor Liu Xiu's start, is the achievement of Nanyang to reach the peak of the splendor of the geographic cause.
Born in Nanyang, Liu Xiu brought his twenty-eight lodges to the capital of Luoyang, and with his concubines and relatives formed his own prosperous culture of the capital for the north. Of course, he did not forget that once Wang Mang whisked him when the hometown, so a large number of meritorious war capable ministers were settled in Nanyang, which is the emperor's hometown of Nandu.
The Nanyang Basin was a fertile land. The ancient irrigation area built in Nanyang in that period, and Guanzhong Zheng Guo canal, Shu County Dujiangyan, known as the three major irrigation areas. The clear flow of water, the land bubbling with oil, fields and farms, luxuriant forests, a great scenery!
Numerous fresh clothes and horses, weather beautiful Nanyang side, the achievement of the most populous county in China's first large male, this is the strong Han style of pioneering.
Political center, the region's lush, culturally developed, Nanyang is indisputably dominant. Economic development will inevitably lead to cultural activity, a large number of deposited Han painting stone is the witness of that great era. Nanyang, like a magnet emitting huge magnetic energy, attracting countless heroes and heroines, literati and writers from all over the world.
Han painting museum, a steady stream of people from all over the country, and even around the world to come to the face, all showing shock and admiration. A pair of Tianlu, avoiding evil giant round stone statues stand in the doorway, robust and unrestrained, with their eyes after the vicissitudes of life mutilated head looking down on the changing world.
Browsing the exhibition hall of different sizes and splendor of the Han painting stone statues, as if I could hear those ancient craftsmen with chapped hands chiseling stone statues of the sound of gold and stone, not a sound, is a piece of a school, an era of ding-dong symphony, convergence of the Han and Chu land rough, simple, exaggerated, bold, romantic cultural charisma ...... Those carved out of the secular myths of the gods, characters, glowing, one by one from the stone down, in the harmony of the music of the elf-like dance, day hunting, night singing, rolled with the thrilling dazzling color of God.
And then, those who completed the ghostly work is breathtaking divine music of the pioneers are also gone, did not leave a name, leaving only these an era of the mark, so that later people touch, reminiscent of, and gaze at.
After thousands of years, these Han portrait stone has been rubbed oil and rounded, some even some fuzzy, but vivid verdigris demeanor is still a thousand years of stubborn wind erosion, capturing people's soul. This shock is not from the general sense of the visual shape of the large, but in the inner force to show the rigorous northern culture and the romantic style of Chu coupled with the dense atmosphere of the majestic aura.
Yes, it spits out the creative spirit of the strong Han ancestors.
No wonder the famous painter Mr. Wu Guanzhong visited the Nanyang Han Painting Museum exclaimed, "I simply want to kneel down in front of the ancestors of the Han Dynasty."
So much so that Lu Xun always told his friends that if they went to Nanyang, they must bring back one or two topographies of the Han paintings.
They are also all listening, gazing, in the thick feed of the ancestors to interpret the flow of the thousand years of White River that musical feast sound.
3? Fate
It is said that one side of the water and soil raises one side of the people.
Nanyang, north of the Dushan Mountain, forested. This contains one of China's four famous jade DuoYu lonely mountain, as if the jade tree in the wind of the modest gentleman, hand in hand around the fairy-like winding bright white river, like in the interpretation of the inexhaustible story of the ancient story, charming and sentimental, so that countless after the infatuation, come to search for traces of the fragrance.
Yes, from the White River on the banks of the wisdom of Zhuge Liang, business saint Fan Li, science saint Zhang Heng, medical saint Zhang Zhongjing, as well as Thyme Xi, Wen Zhong and other countless sages and philosophers, most of these are concentrated in the Spring and Autumn and the Warring States and the Han Dynasty period of the sages, had bathed in the White River, the ring of the sole Jade, and then in the spirit of Yusheng between the grace to the depths of the history of the grace to go...
Can be I also suspect that the same is a piece of home in Nanyang, why the future will no longer be able to raise the bright stars of the Qin and Han Dynasties? Is it that the water of the Baihe River does not support people, or that people have failed to live up to the love of the Baihe River that flows day and night?
Looking up at the stars, I am also looking for answers.
When the same period of the western Mediterranean side of a group of scholars in the windy seaside to explore the relationship between man and nature, a group of sages and sages in the East is also being cut off during the Spring and Autumn period of the well-field land of a hundred schools of thought.
This was the first time in the history of human thought that there was a great controversy in a different geographical area.
The genetic differences in the thinking of our forefathers in China and the West, and the resulting influence on later generations, are also vastly different. While the introverted culture of the East produces modest men who follow the rules, the open culture of the West has a disturbing element in its bones, such as the unruly people in the eyes of Emperor Qin Shi Huang, who always wanted to run wild.
The Westerners' ultimate quest for logical discernment of nature has had a profound effect on the development of a series of later scientific systems, rooted in practicality. The Chinese side of the scholars' thinking method is very different, focusing on the accumulation of experience and perception of transcendence, more reflected in the relationship between man and man and the "art of governance" of this macro-controversy, the sky dance, disdain for the microcosmic carving of the small skills.
Thus, governance in China is well organized, but science is inherently insufficient, Chinese emperors need to be the sky and the land of tactical talents, not the exhaustion of the nature of the exhaustive use of the craftsmen, extending for thousands of years of the imperial examination system is a clear example, only set up the liberal arts, there is no science, all the promotion of economic development of the lowest level of those who are the craftsmen of the official collectively referred to as a cheap "craftsmen," which is also a good example of how to promote the development of the economy.
I often went to Nanzhao in the 1990s, and the tomb of Zhang Heng, the saint of science, which is exposed in the wheat fields along the roadside of Beishiqiao in Nanyang, is desolate and forlorn, in stark contrast to the splendor of the shrines of Zhuge Liang, the saint of wisdom, and Zhang Zhongjing, the saint of medicine, in Nanyang. The same great characters, different treatment behind shows that in ancient times to engage in industry is really unpopular.
From this, it is not difficult to sort out the Spring and Autumn period in China, the budding of suppression of agriculture, the basic establishment of the State of War to agriculture-based economic form, until the Western Han Dynasty, "Dismissal of the Hundred Schools, the sole respect for Confucianism," the formal completion of the overall design of China's economic system and the establishment of this macro-art of governance trajectory.
This is a kind of how exquisite perfect design ah, the land is the hitching post, blood relatives is trapped in the stables, was castrated Confucian ethics is more peace of mind in the crouch, whether it is chained to the body or tied to the spirit of the design for successive generations of the Royal applauded, inherited and used.
This use is two thousand years. The people bound to the land became increasingly preoccupied with digging for food in the earth, indulging in self-sufficiency and resigning themselves to natural disasters and man-made calamities.
The ideology of leisure and closure perfectly fits the geographic form of Nanyang, allowing the people of Nanyang to enjoy themselves like frogs in warm water, and begin to be numb in their destiny.
Area of nearly 30,000 square kilometers of the Nanyang Basin, experienced the heyday of the two Han period of glory, affluence and prosperity, and finally in the Three Kingdoms melee, in order to fight with Xiangfan against Guan Yu, by Cao Ren massacre, directly planed Guangwu Emperor Dragon Vein. From then on, just from Nanyang grows out of the Mingli Hui root, was uprooted.
This is more than a thousand years after the closure of the country was beaten by the Western powers, how similar, literary scholar, encountered the barbarians.
There is a huge spell floating over the basin, without the blood transfusion of foreign culture, without the culture of Gyeonggi, without the export opportunities of Qianhai, the idyllic inland is just a mirage, only in peacetime at first glance, a corner of the world.
Nanyang decadent wastage, like other small inland cities with no resources to rely on, and then there is no power to turn the tide, began to crouch in the dragon coiled, there is no silence, is that it can not move away from the geographical location.
The wind, from the northeastern part of the basin of the Fangcheng gap whistling south, such as opening the floodgates of the army, surging harsh, long drive; and then encountered the Yangtze River, such as the water back, from the Jingxiang earth flocked to the Central Plains; a wave to a wave to go, the tide down and the tide up. Those nomads from the plateau, iron horse flag, unstoppable, and Nanyang, as a tree standing in the wind, like a cloak of hair, messy wind, was wrapped up, but also be ravaged, and then tired and then restore calm.
Located in the west of Nanyang City, Wolonggang Wuhou Shrine Hall, enjoy all the fireworks, Zhuge Liang is still in the knee long chanting, the hall column hanging a couplet "heart in the court of the original regardless of the master of the first after the master, the name of the world why not discern the Xiangyang Nanyang". Interestingly, this couplet written by the Nanyang governor Gu Jiaheng, but Xiangyang people, it can be seen at that time Gu Jiaheng for Nanyang, Xiangfan Zhuge Liang bowing land dispute, for the litigation to stop the discussion is quite difficult after the open-minded practiced.
What is it? Of course, the heritage of the ancients, the benefits of cultural tourism. It is said that in order to seize the "Water Margin" in the fictional infamous Simon Qing origin, some places are also fighting for a lot of fun, it is not difficult to imagine, people are anxious to have not cared so much. It's no wonder that the agrarian civilization has no better legacy than the land.
While Nanyang and Xiangyang were fighting over this ancestral property, industrial civilization, with its more advanced productivity and ability to create great wealth, came ashore from the east coast of China.
4? Today's tassel in hand
The founding of the new China, completely abandoned the continuation of thousands of years of heavy agriculture and suppression of business tradition, began to roar from the agricultural country to the industrialization of the country's historical transmutation.
Wutong blossom, Phoenix Nirvana, the first thirty years of industrialization of the country, after forty years of reform and opening up, so that the holes in China in the integration of Western culture after the tragic turn, began to sing all the way forward, such a magnificent lifetime of three iteration of the spectacle, known as the miracle of the history of human development.
Reform and opening up, the history of mankind's largest population migration activities, every day to the north and south of the fast-moving trains, planes, ships carrying hundreds of millions of huge flows of people to all parts of the world, this time the identity of Nanyang is not the Qin and Han Dynasty when the importation of the place, and became the output of the place, yes, to the outside world to export the labor force of the blood transfusion place.
Nanyang has always been the largest population center from ancient times to the present, and therefore has been eloquently proved to be the most suitable place for human beings to live. Then, if the reverse thinking, economic development depends on talent, Nanyang should not also be rich in talent city?
Yes, sober Nanyang builders put forward a very sentimental slogan "to build Nanyang talent highland, the formation of thousands of Zhuge out of the hut of the vivid situation." Begin to focus on the development of education, training future practical human resources.
Undoubtedly this is a high level of strategic layout. However, it is encouraging but also makes people taste, how to feel which is a little bit wrong?
While the future is promising, but after all, human resources is not the same as talent. Those due to a variety of reasons to sink into the folk can not show ambition but the chest has a beautiful, skilled practical talents, the door does not seem to open for this, this is a depressed thousand years of history.
A heavy door separates the two worlds of the government and the people. Until today, they can only carry a snakeskin bag like the "unruly people", with Li Bai's thousand-year sigh, with the migrant workers rolling torrent to migrate far away.
People, talent! Why has it been so entangled for thousands of years? We have been sighing for centuries, "do not stick to one pattern to lower the talent" and "can catch the mouse good cat"?
Is it that this basin has been silent for too long and has been emptied of talent, or is it that the people's wisdom has been degraded and is no longer useful? Even so, not three ignorant cobblers still top a Zhu Geliang, as Henan's population city, Nanyang in this regard is not more unique advantages?
In fact, the folk cleverness and wisdom has always existed in the sea.
The people of Zhenping County, west of Nanyang City, are known for their "ability". They have a vivid mind, a twinkle in their eye, and always seem to be able to adjust and change their state of being by chance, in great contrast to the other people who live in this basin and abide by the simple folkways, so much so that the people of Nanyang, when they mention the people of Zhenping, have a subtle mentality of both admiration and precaution.
An obvious fact is that as early as the Qing Dynasty Zhenping has wrapped silk over the basin, far away from Southeast Asia, Europe, so that the other counties of the people of the foot sigh.
The doorstep of the Bayi Road to the west over the Bailey Xi Kirin Gang, eighteen miles of Gang extended to the ancient road stage, is today's 312 National Road. West to Zhenping on both sides of the national highway, located in two small towns, the south is Jia Song, the north is Shifosi.
Let me be surprised, once the poor countryside and closed traffic hidden in the endless wheat fields in the town of Jia Song, is actually the largest distribution center of small commodities in southwestern Henan, Henan, Hubei, Sichuan, Shaanxi, Anhui adjoining areas known as the wholesale base of small commodities. When I was a child, my aunt every time from the East Cha-an to Jia-song goods, are rolling Nanyang City, my home to the tip of the city.
Another famous world of jade ShiFuSi, the same had been ghosts not prosperous egg of the deserted car, full of only LiaoConcreting, how to beautiful jade? But this is what resources are not the sky pale wild place, how out of nowhere into the world of jade distribution center? So much so that the famous Xinjiang Hetian jade also "jade production in Xinjiang, the city out of Zhenping", so that many Muslims from far away agreed to live in this?
In fact, behind these, is the result of several generations of Zhenping people who have gone to great lengths to go south and north, they do not have any resources, they no longer rely on the sky, do not rely on the ground, rely on their own hard work and ingenuity. When the government office people are still in the hot bed sound sleep and smile waiting for the next year when the wind and rain, the people in the crop field has taken the dry food on the straw raincoat shoulder satchel quietly on the road to break into the world, so far, Guangzhou and Shenzhen side of the many jade merchants are Zhenping people, and stay at home, the people are carefully carved and nurtured belong to their own nest of jade.
They are the remnants of Han's ancestors, who are creating a culture on a penniless land.
5? Wolong is here
The Spirit Returns
This is not waving a streamer to beckon to the ancient world, it is calling out to a spirit that is far away! This is the strong Han spirit of ignorance and fearlessness to subvert, since there is no undertaking before and no prospect after, it would rather go through fire and water, without hesitation.
In the information age, everything has to be tested. Every time I open the search engine to look for each of the local party records, to see the basic is the local scenery and people's heartfelt praise. One day I was shocked when I opened Rangdong town on the border between Nanyang and Dengzhou.
Rangdong is different, different in its pragmatic, clear signs of respect for business, love business, protect business, rich business service commitment to the high government functions down to the dust of humble service, to accept the whole world review.
I marveled at this kind of broad-mindedness, this kind of posture, as well as in the storage of water to feed the fish and fishing between the choice, although this kind of high theory has been thousands of years, not rare, but Rangdong this time to do more decisive, thorough and painful.
In fact, Rangdong has long been that the southwestern Henan trafficking cloth town, she is to clothing production clusters of nickel wings, floating down the international glamorous runway.
They are embracing a real world virtualized in the Internet, or rather, embracing the masters of an era, with a kind of sincere arms.
I was touched by how this gesture does not make the world return.
Yes, the ever-changing Internet implosion development, has transcended our perception of the industry of things, changing people's lives and ways of thinking, completely breaking the ancient binary and unworkable rift valley, the rainbow frame connection, a hope and desire to extend to infinity.
Can we break the spell of the millennium that hangs over the basin like a pot cover?
I have no doubt. National "14th Five-Year Plan" has been prepared for the first time through the Internet wide open, yes, for the first time to the net as a medium, ask for advice from the people, to the people to draw wisdom, self-made blood.
But, after all, this basin has been precipitated for too long, the Internet is just to reach into the basin to stir up its still water, after all, it is not the master, a tool only.
But don't overlook its powerful trial and error, error correction function, any disrespect for contempt will incur it more strongly backfire, we have experienced too many lessons, learn from the bitter experience, we should be in a pious state of mind to re-recognize and meet the door waiting for a long time for this young novice.
Nanyang was historically a first-tier city, now has been reduced to a third-tier city, a number of years later this basin or will become a water country, that can not be helped, the natural selection, the vicissitudes of life. Those Han paintings and stone statues, iron smelting sites will also be buried in the water, in the red lotus root incense residue jade woven mat in the fall, leaving the sound of contempt, we finally live into the Han ancestors of the unworthy descendants!
It seems that Nanyang should not be blamed, then who should be blamed?
Intelligent era, when we take the back of a pale boy, with awe knocking on the Internet, shouting "Open Sesame", as we come out of the depressed basin for a long time, bright sunshine, fresh air, sprawling wilderness - Oh, a wide world, and a wide world, and a wide world, and a wide world, and a wide world, and a wide world, and a wide world, and a wide world, and a wide world, and a wide world, and a wide world, and a wide world. Oh, a wide world, and an elf-like beating, restoring the blood-forming function of the robust heart.
History's opportunity is fair to anyone, but also once again let the coiled Crouching Dragon from the basin to poke its head out and answer:
If Nanyang in the history of the two brilliant thanks to the timing and location, then peacetime Nanyang to rise what else can rely on? In front of Luoyang and Xiangfan, these joyful enemies have already gone all the way to the dust, and after Dengzhou led Rangdong to a sudden rise, what should Nanyang do?
What kind of warmth should be used to protect those wandering folk talents in the Baihe Wetland under the sparkling clothes; how to accept guests from afar in the neon-flashing basin so that they will no longer wander far away?
The sages and sages who created the culture on this land have gone away one by one and turned into the bright stars in the sky, what kind of breadth of mind, bravery and self-confidence should we use to break the fence of the basin and create a brand-new correspondence to the sky's majestic culture to respond to Kong Ming's knee-length recitation and Li Bai's thousand-year sigh?
We have already made an agonizing choice between retreating to the basin and moving toward the vastness, and there is no avoiding the question of whether or not we should borrow from the sky for another 500 years.
I seem to hear that majestic voice again: the waters of the Yellow River come from the sky and run to the sea without return~
