"Exploration" (14)
Surrounded by mountains and standing in the heart of vast hectares of fertile land, the "Laixian Pavilion" in Guiyang City is built in Dahetang. On the rock, the pavilion is more than 24 meters high, with three floors and three eaves, six equal sides, hexagonal spire, wooden structure, valley yellow tiles, vermilion walls, window lattice fans, fine carvings, antique style, the breeze blows, and the sound of bells. It's pleasant to the ear and quite poetic.
Laixian Pavilion is located in Zhaojia Village, Dongfeng Township, Wudang District, the northeastern suburbs of the city, about 18 kilometers away from the center of Guiyang. Around the pavilion, the river is green, lingering like a belt, and there are green bamboos, flowers and grass, which are sparse and shaded. Behind the building is Orchid Mountain, with towering ancient pines and orchids everywhere. Every time after the Spring Festival, purple orchids fill the mountains and fields, and their fragrance fills your nostrils. Climb the tower and look into the distance. The peaks are like a screen, and the fields and villages are like in a painting. The rapeseed is golden, the wheat waves are blue, the rice is fragrant, and the singing and laughter are rippling in the wind, creating an intoxicating pastoral scenery.
Laixian Pavilion was built during the Wanli period of the Ming Dynasty (AD 1575-1620) and was originally named "Shuiyue Zhaodi". It is a pavilion surrounded by water and has an elegant environment. In the 15th year of Jiaqing in the Qing Dynasty (1810 AD), the pavilion was rebuilt into "Laixian Pavilion". It was rebuilt in the 34th year of Guangxu (1908 AD) and has experienced the vicissitudes of the world. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the People's Government allocated special funds for maintenance. New stone railings have been built around Laixian Pavilion, all pavilions have been decorated, and the surrounding environment has been greened. In front of the pavilion, there is a three-character plaque with the words "Laixian Pavilion" written in vigorous writing. On the left and right sides, there is an inscription "Yue Shi Yuan Pavilion" written by Tian Gao Gao. There is a couplet on the door couplet: "The flute rhymes with the willows and the clearing, and the sound of the piano comes late and intermittently." cicada". Today, Laixian Pavilion welcomes Chinese and foreign tourists with a new look.
According to folklore, after the completion of Laixian Pavilion, a bridge was built over the big river pond, named "Laixian Bridge". One spring, when the wind was beautiful and the sun was shining, a kind old man with silver hair and a red face came to "Laixian Pavilion". He looked around and said to himself: "Only when Laixian Pavilion stands in the water can there be a fairyland. Build a wooden bridge." It ruins the scenery.” He strolled up to the bridge, stopped and looked at it for a long time, and then chanted: "If the gods can come, it will be fine. Just come to the Immortal Pavilion, not the Immortal Bridge." Then the old man scattered a handful of pine nuts and orchid seeds on the back hill, and the hill was immediately covered with green pines and fine-leaved orchids. I saw the white-haired old man turning into a red cloud and rising slowly into the sky. In an instant, the waves of the big river rolled and the Laixian Bridge was washed away. Since then, no bridge has been built here, but the original bridge foundation is still faintly visible in the water. Visitors walk along the farm trail along the stream and pass through Zhaojiazhuang to enjoy the beautiful scenery of "Laixian Pavilion", which is a unique experience. The back mountain was named "Orchid Mountain". The ancient pines are lush and evergreen all year round, the ground is covered with orchids, and the fragrance of flowers is overflowing. The scenery in Laixian Pavilion is even more beautiful.

Xi Dongye's poem says: "It used to be said that the mountains in the world are half in the middle of Guizhou; I also heard that the world is in the mountains. "Quan, the name of the middle part of Guizhou" (According to the Tang Dynasty, Qianzhong County was in Pengshui, Sichuan, and governed the northeastern part of Guizhou. Meng's poem refers to that area, not the Guiyang area. The quote here is correct, because of the old text, Still having a taste of suspicion, I sent Yu to Guizhou as an official. I saw that it was surrounded by mountains and rivers, so I believed that the public statement was true. I went to Guishan during my free time and talked with Mr. Zhai Yueshan, the director of the hospital, about the famous places in central Guizhou. I heard that in a corner of Mairang in the northeast of Huicheng, there was a rocky rock formation in the middle of the water, and there was a pavilion built on top of it. That was the preface of the Qing Dynasty. When asked about the situation, Yueshan said: "Our country in Guizhou is called Shanshui Cave, and the mountain of Mairang is Zhongying in Yunfeng Shiji. From Fenghuang Shao to the bank of Xianlin Bridge, there are surging waves, which is what Xingjia calls it. Luo Xing Suo Shui. During the Wanli period of the previous Ming Dynasty, the Li family built the Shuiyue Pavilion. It has been abandoned for a long time, but the original site still has trees on it and the bridge is named Jiuyan. One is the Nanming River, which originates from it. The mountain stream in the northeast of Guangshun flows through the county town to the Niudu River. The first is Longdong River, which is ten miles south of the city. It has a lively source and gurgling sound. It turns east and then to the northeast, winding around Longjing, Toubao, and Wujiu. It goes down several villages and communicates with Nanming River in front of Mairang Village. It is unknown when the bridge was built. It was rebuilt in the 18th year of Wanli and has been called Zhou Daoyan for more than hundreds of years. It's cloudless during the day, and it rains like broken bamboo at night. The river surges and surges, so you can't be careful.
In the early summer, the rain is as bad as before, and the bridge is covered with three-ninths of the stone. It took a few months.
Because of Shiji's feng shui dependence, when the pavilion was in decline, Xian'en restored it. In addition to the bridge construction fees, the couple worked together to earn money and build a pavilion. At that time, the leaders Hu Yanbi, Sun Xizuo, Yuan Yiming and others built the Furong Stone Bridge with three holes, repaired the six holes of the Stone Bridge, and changed its name to Huichuan. Kui Su is worshiped on the top of the pavilion, Wenchang is worshiped in the middle, with a leaping carp dragon gate on the left, and a small pavilion built on the back, dozens of stone railings, and more than ten bells. The name of the pavilion is: "Laixian". People's footsteps are interesting. Looking back on the winter solstice, the bridge was completed and the pavilion was completed. "I sighed after hearing this," people in the past said, things happen organically, how can this be said! If the water does not rise, the bridge will not be repaired, and if the bridge is not repaired, the pavilion will eventually become useless. The ancient jade towers and jade buildings were lost in the smoke and weeds, how could they be victorious! Today, we trace the pavilion from the bridge and build the pavilion from the pavilion, which is based on chance. And the opportunity has become huge. I heard that in the middle of Jiaqian and Guizhou, there are mountains and mountains, meandering waters, villages with tiled roofs and fish scales, and smoke from cooking stoves. Every time when we were building a field to collect crops, the bamboo boards were clanking, and there was a wind blowing the rice fields to hit the soil. In the meantime, as the sun sets and the evening falls, the sound of flutes and fishermen singing, the gentle breeze of the ears, the bamboos and weeping poplars, the satin and the ducks surround the villages in Tianchou. It’s prosperous! The Hongqiao Yishui and the Jiege Lingxu are the most beautiful scenery compared with those in the past. Then the clothes and cultural relics in the future will be a hundred times greater than today, won’t they still be determined by machine? "Yu Yazhi came up and took a look at his thoughts. He was transferred to Ossi, so he stopped. However, he was still full of love for mountains and rivers, so he prefaced the book
