2, noon, I took a relaxed pace, crossed into the Xijiang Miaozhai broad and magnificent village gate. Along the crystal-clear Baishui River upstream eastward, the road on both sides of the beautiful scenery at a glance: the terraces lined up, from the foot of the hill slope extends to the hillside, overlapping, high and low levels; terraces in full bloom of rapeseed flowers, yellow like gold, white as snow, in the spring breeze exudes a refreshing fragrance; green green seedlings, frequently undulating, to the guests who came to the far away from the joy of the bloom of a smile!
3, the light across the terraces, looking toward the left hillock, that spit the tender green maple forest, fir trees and other trees and unknown lianas, lush and beautiful, verdant; shoulder basket of Miao women, forehead wrapped in a black head scarf, in the forest picking what? I guess, should be in the picking tea, perhaps in the excavation of medicinal herbs. Looking at their busy figures, I seem to smell a strong farming culture is emanating. I feel that the landscape and grass here are infused with the simplicity of the Miao compatriots, hard work, bravery, the years here are full of sunrise, sunset and rest of the peace, tranquility, harmony.
4, Phoenix's oldest Miao village: located in the lush vegetation, ecological environment of the Qifeng slope, surrounded by green hills inverted in the mirror of the lake west. Bagua style built cottage, layout haggard Cham, cottage in the ancient boardwalk, a colorful green tile ancient walls, winding alleys and secluded. A sky-high ancient see hazel wood forest, long in the lake on the hillock guarding the thousand-year-old fortress.
5, is a large four square open-air performance field, surrounded by the newly built Miao village footstools, visitors also stood and also sat has been surrounded by a few circles, the performance of the Miao village bench dance, cheerful rhythm, unrestrained dance, accompanied by the sound of the bench knocking from time to time to let a person indulge in the rude and bold, passionate and simple Miao ethnic customs. Next is the performance singing of Miao village songs, (welcome to land) which is a group of original singers without any accompaniment, among them, the oldest is more than eighty years old, the youngest is also sixty. The voice is sometimes as clear as a mountain spring, light, like the valley overflow; sometimes like the sound of the waves in general low, hazy, such as the sea and the sky floating. Tourists listen to as intoxicated, happy not to think about returning.
6, the Miao people in the new China before has been a driven migration of the people, their ancestors had to choose to build a hermit life in the mountains. Perhaps it is this difficult nation that makes them in the numerous migrations to create their own unique national culture, brilliant their long history of the nation. Climbing up to the foot of Leigong Mountain, with a bird's-eye view, the old Miao Village is in full view. Gray and black foot-hanging buildings hidden in the green hills and trees, layers and layers, staggered, like a folk landscape painting of ups and downs. The black roof tiles and yellowed wooden walls seem to be telling the visitors about the history of an ageless nation.
7, Zhai Center Square open-air stage, the Miao young men and women are performing songs and dances for the guests, on the flying song, play the reed-sheng, vibration ringing bells, singing love songs, melodious, melodious. Girls and boys singing and dancing, singing and dancing beautifully. The corridors around the square were crowded with guests from all over the world, and many foreign friends, sitting and standing, enjoying the unique Miao-style songs and dances, and feeling the unique flavor of the Miao culture. In the crowd, there were people who laughed happily from time to time! I stood on the opposite side of the stage in the corridor, listening to the high voice of the Lusheng melody, silent appreciation of the Miao women's delicate graceful harvest dance, toasting dance, dress Miao dance, jinji dance and other unique programs, is not the essence of the culture of the Miao people in Xijiang, knocking on the audience of the long-dyed heart.
8, the night of the Miao village is quiet. Across the river from the concert hall from time to time out of the song or music, and occasionally hit the fireworks, adding a few colors to the night sky. Like fireflies scattered in the mountains of the Miao village footstools, thousands of households at the same time light up the lanterns, the mountains, the stars, the moment for another picture, live the scene of the cottage, along the Xijiang River stone road from top to bottom wandering tourists, millions of years of silent flow of the quiet river, still bubbling at night, the river wooden wind and rain bridge, also in the dim light of the shadow of the broken, and occasionally there are a few voices The occasional barking of dogs, and wow everything makes you from restlessness to tranquility, from tranquility tends to daze.
