"The barrier is connected to water and land in the southeast, and Lu'an is different from other states. It is surrounded by mountains and beautiful mountains, and the river and Huaihe River are surrounded by majestic mountains." --- "Ode to Liu'an Prefecture" On the first day of work after the Qingming Festival holiday, my colleague Xiao Wang
He excitedly said to me: "Sister, your Lu'an is so beautiful! I'm going to go there next holiday. I want to visit the whole of Liu'an." Xiao Wang went on a self-driving trip from Huaibei to Lu'an during the holiday.
I asked him where he went during the three days.
He said he went to the Great Rift Valley in western Anhui.
I asked him what he did?
He said that he climbed the canyon to view the bamboo sea, admired orchids and azaleas, soaked in the Xugu Tianmu Hot Spring, drank hand-fried spring tea, and ate local delicacies such as mugwort cakes, braised bamboo shoots with bacon, scrambled eggs with Chinese toon, and stir-fried hairy fish...
· As he spoke, he gestured with his hands, trying to express to me how beautiful the scenery and taste were with his limited vocabulary!
I couldn't help laughing and teased him: "Going to one scenic spot in three days shows that Liu'an is not very good and there are not many interesting places." "No! I feel that the scenery along the way is like in a painting." He
Tell me very seriously.
Another colleague heard our lively chat and joined in. When he heard about Lu'an, he immediately became energetic and said: "I have been to Tiantangzhai and Yanzi River Grand Canyon a few years ago, and last year I went to Wanfo Lake and Buddha.
Ziling Reservoir, the beautiful water, the green mountains, and the breathtaking scenery are all good places that can heal people's hearts. This year is the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Party. I want to take my son to Jinzhai County on July 1st.
Take a look at the Revolutionary Memorial Hall to trace the red footprints and relive the red memories, so that he who has lived in a honeypot since he was a child will know that the good life now is hard-won." My colleague Brother Chen's children study in the nationally famous Lu'an Maotanchang Middle School.
, also came over and said: "There are some little-known places in Lu'an, and the scenery there is wonderful." Brother Chen completely ignored me, a real Liu'an person, and kept introducing the Eastern Stalagmites to them.
, Ming and Qing Old Streets, Dahua Mountain, Songliao Rock and other familiar hometown place names that I am no longer familiar with.
Watching the three of them talking enthusiastically about Lu'an, I really felt a lot of emotion in my heart.
When I was transferred from Lu'an to Huaibei in 1997, whenever I introduced myself to others as being from Lu'an, they would often reply: "Liu'an? I've never been there and don't know much about it. I've only heard of Lu'an Guapian!" No wonder!
, Lu'an is more than 300 kilometers away from Huaibei. Although it is not too far, the transportation is not convenient. Every time you go back and forth, it is like peeling off a layer of skin, and you will not be able to recover for a few days.
There are only two modes of transportation that can be chosen, the green train with "no fan running and no water in the tea stove" and the complicated buses.
At that time, there was no train service in Lu'an. If you wanted to take a train, you could only go to Hefei Railway Station.
Not to mention whether you can buy a train ticket, even if you buy a ticket, you may not be able to get on the train.
The Hefei Railway Station during the holidays is truly worthy of its name as “a sea of ??people”.
The process of getting on the bus can be described as thrilling. If you are not careful, you will be squeezed and unable to find your companions. The loudspeaker in the waiting hall plays various notices of missing people and found objects all day long. The tragic comedy of lost and found is often staged in the broadcast room.
It was the first time I took a train from Hefei to Huaibei. I didn’t dare to relax for a moment during the whole journey. I clutched the back of my husband’s shirt tightly. In the end, a huge piece of luggage carried by a strong man was torn away. Fortunately, I am thin.
Flexible, she squeezed back to her husband through the gaps in the crowded crowd.
Getting on the train is another big problem. There are only a few short steps at the entrance of the carriage, and it is difficult to get up to the sky.
It's all about strength. It's a collision of strength and strength. My small body has no chance of winning.
There was nothing I could do, so in the end my husband and several of his classmates forced me into the car through the window.
The shadow left by my first train ride made me afraid to try again for a long time.
Take the bus instead.
There is only one bus a day from Lu'an North Station to Huaibei at 5:40 in the morning. The most inconvenient thing is that the North Station is relatively far away from the city, and it is too early and the buses are not running yet. It is not safe for a girl to take a taxi.
.
As a last resort, I had to ask my family or friends to take me to the station by bicycle when the weather was good. If it was windy, rainy or snowy, they would take a taxi to take me there. Every time, it would cause trouble and make people feel uneasy.
In order to make more money, bus owners even arrange people to sit in the aisles.
An elder sister next to me had fallen asleep leaning on me during the bumpy ride. The nylon bag placed next to her emitted an indescribable smell of some kind of poultry excrement.
After finally holding it in until noon, the driver wanted to stop at a small restaurant designated by the roadside to eat and rest, and the passengers all got off the car to find a toilet for "convenience".
? The so-called toilet is temporarily built with a few wooden boards in a low-lying part of the road. There is no cover on the top. Standing on the road, you can have a clear view of the internal structure of the toilet.
