[Memory] "Bow Bridge" of Lushan's "Sandu Water" ‖ Zhou Xiaoping

The "Bow Bridge" of Lushan's "Sandu Water"

Zhou Xiaoping

Near the Mid -Autumn Festival, walking on the streets of Lushan County, watching the stores and supermarkets full of various moon cakes, and separated by layers of packaging, I seem to smell the attractive taste of moon cakes. At the same time, the memories of "Sandu Water" and "Bow Bridge" also jumped into my mind for a moment, because it once made me shock and jumping ...

"Sandu Water" is a villager group in Zhongba Village, Baosheng Township, Lushan County.

In 2013, the "April 20th" Lushan Earthquake New Building in Sandu Water Group, Zhongba Village, Baosheng Township

I wonder if the "Bow Bridge" this year is settled? How did the old captain and the villagers live? Thinking of this in my heart, the idea of ​​re -swimming in the old land came out.

It is not too late to contact the village secretary Yang Kang. He got and opened the call of Captain Li Wanzhong, the former "Sandu Water" team, to inform him of his intention.

Everything is proper. On the afternoon of the fifth day of the lunar calendar, her husband, who had always been busy with work, was just a little free, so he begged him to drive and put on a friend who had worked with me here for several years (when she served as deputy township) to the "Sandu Water Water "Group visit.

At one and a half afternoon, we set off from the county seat. After the rain, it was sunny, and there was no scorching sun. The breeze along the way, the buildings and mature rice fields on both sides of the highway quickly crossed the roads on both sides of the highway, and the climate was extremely cool and pleasant. The car galloping through the ladder rock tunnel in Longmen Town, and then through the "Yuxi River" dam through the tunnel of the Bao Sheng Township, it is the people's government of Baosheng Township. The car drove to the "Baoda Road" (from Baosheng Township to Dachuan Town) to the north facing north. For more than 40 minutes, we went to Zhongba Village Village Committee. Essence

After more than 20 years, when we saw old friends who worked together at the grassroots level, the three of us were excited to each other, and only greeting each other. I saw the sixty -year -old Yang Kang Chu Shu was still so red and embarrassed, and he couldn't help sighing that the years had the only pet and eccentricity for him. After he got in the car, her husband continued to drive in the direction of the "Sandu Water", and only seven or eight minutes to his destination.

The steel cement bridge of Sandu Water Group, Zhongba Village, Baosheng Township, Lushan County in 2016

"Hey! What about the bow bridge?" After getting off the car, I stood on the "Sandu Water" group on the banks of the river on the bank of the river, and eagerly searched the familiar "Bow Bridge" on the river.

"Bow Bridge has been dismantled!" Yang Kang's secretary told us that when the "Touring Zizuo" power station was built in 2006, the coordination of the township and village cadres was coordinated to be strongly supported by the power station project. The villagers have specially built roller dams and bridges (blocking the river as a road bridge).

"What about the dam? I haven't seen it!" My mouth was pursuing, but my eyes continued to "scan" towards the river.

"Hehe! The dam of the dam was underwater a few years ago. The current bridge is started in 2015. It was completed in September 2016. ! "Yang Zhishu explained.

Perhaps because of the "Bow Bridge" too much, so when I got here, I just stared at the river water, but I didn't see a new bridge on the river under the river.

"I'm sorry! I really didn't expect that Sandu Water also built the bridge and passed the road!" After I mocked a few times, I walked up the bridge with my friends, and observed it back and forth.

The "Sandu Water" bridge is about eight or nine meters high, about four meters wide on the bridge deck. Both sides of the bridge surface are welded with an iron care railing more than one meter high. Both the pier and the bridge are poured by cement steel bars. Standing under the bridge, it looks like a "giant" standing steadily in the river.

Looking at the bridge in front of me, my thoughts flew back to the "Bow Bridge" picture more than 20 years ago ...

In the late 1990s, I was transferred to the people's government of Baosheng Township and served as the deputy secretary of the party committee.

The "Sandu Water" group is one of the 18 villagers in Zhongba Village, with more than 30 households and more than 100 villagers. It is more than 800 meters above sea level. It is located about 8 kilometers northwest of the people's government of Baosheng Township. The opposite bank of the Okawa River is the current "Baoda Road" (then it is only a mudslite road of Tongcun with less than 5 meters), and the villagers are extremely inconvenient to travel.

In a late autumn morning, under the leadership of Yang Kang, the cadres of the villagers in the village secretary, and several of our village cadres in the villagers, came to the "Sandu Water" group to check the sowing of Xiaochun and publicize the work of returning farmland to the forest. Everyone walked down the river from the road, and passed a section of river beach pebble roads, and came to a strange "bridge" in the middle of the river dam. The reason why it is strange is because it is neither a stone arch bridge nor an iron cable bridge, nor is it a wooden bridge. Seeing me a little curious, Yang Zhishu told me that this is "bow bridge".

"Bow Bridge? No wonder the shape is like a bow!" After listening to Yang Zhishu, I realized it. I saw the "bridge" on the three or forty meters wide river. The shape of the bridge body and handrail was exactly like two open bows, and it was like a rainbow after two rain.

Although I am in my 30s, although I am full of work, I am not willing to fall into others, but because of motion sickness, motion sickness, and seal, I face the "bow bridge", and I feel timid. Behind the head of Yang Xiang, I carefully grabbed the "armrests" tied to the wooden wooden tied up by two horizontal woods, while stepping on the "Bow Bridge" at the same time. Who knew that after two steps, the "Bow Bridge" kept shaking, and the more he shook it, as if he would pour into the river at any time. As soon as I bowed my head, I saw the river flowing down, and I also saw "Bow Bridge" and "Run" to "run" up! I was dizzy and stood on the bridge, and I didn't dare to move forward half a step. "Secretary Zhou! Don't bury your head to look at the river water! Look up at the distance, see the house and crop of Sandu water across!" Step by step, I was scared through the "Bow Bridge" ...

"You see, there are many buildings in Sandu water!" My friend interrupted my contemplation when the friend was overjoyed.

With her eyes and fingers, the bamboo forests, trees, and crops of the "Sandu Water" gradually became clear. Several beautiful new buildings are particularly noticeable.

After walking down the bridge, Li Wanzhong, the old captain of the "Sandu Water" group, has greeted us at the intersection. With him into the courtyard dam, he was watching two beautiful buildings. He happily told us that the building was built by his two sons.

After sitting on the sofa of his living room, we set up the changes in the "Sandu Water" for more than 20 years. Although Captain Li, who is 77 -year -old, is a bit thin, his body is still tough, and his wife is still alive. Now that children grow up and become families, it is the time when children and grandchildren enjoyed their knees to enjoy the sky.

"Captain Li, let's talk about the origin of the bow bridge!"

Although I always think of or mentioning the "Bow Bridge", I can't help but be stunned, but I still want to explore its mystery.

"Don't underestimate the bow bridge, but it is the exclusive green channel of Sandu water villagers ..."

Speaking of "Bow Bridge", Captain Li suddenly opened the box and told us about the origin of "Bow Bridge".

He told us that the "Bow Bridge" has been setting up for at least hundreds of years. Since he is sensible, he has seen the older generation of "Bow Bridge" every year.

Every summer, as the rainfall increases, the river surface of the "Sandu Water" group section is turbulent, and the waves are rolling. The villagers travel during the flood season, one is to wading the river, but the river surface of more than 100 meters is extremely turbid. The weir mouth, then passed the iron cable bridge to the highway, then returned to the south along the highway for more than ten miles before going to the road across the "Sandu Water" group. It takes more than an hour to go, it takes more than an hour, and it takes time and effort.

In order not to delay the children's school time, the young adults of the "Sandu Water" group never made money from far away. As soon as they were in school and school time, they stayed on the banks of the river and carried the children to wading the river. Whether it is their own or other children, young people, regardless of each other, are risked by the risks of being washed away by the river, and the children are connected to the water from the water one after another. Underwear.

The villagers in the "Sandu Water" group attached great importance to setting up the "Bow Bridge" because everyone took the "Bow" Bridge from August to early April of the year, almost 8 months. Compared with the danger of wading and time -consuming and labor -intensive, "Bow Bridge" brings you unique convenience and fast.

"Captain Li, what is the point of particular attention to the bow bow bridge?" I pulled him back from the memories of the past.

"Of course you are particular! I will show you!" Captain Li walked to the dam dam, pulled out 4 bamboo contempt, and demonstrated as he said.

He said that "Bow Bridge" is first of all. People generally choose to set up after the last "Washing River Water" in the summer around the 15th of the lunar calendar. Because the main flood season in the summer is basically over, the river water is no longer so turbulent, and a large number of pebble beaches will be exposed on both sides of the river on both sides of the river. The excellent time to set up the "Bow" Bridge.

The second is that the selection of materials should be particular. Four woods that make bridges and bridge armrests must be more than 20 cm diameter and 134 meters long, because the fir is tough and elastic. Also prepare a large number of bamboo, rattan and many cobblestones.

The final key is to pass the technology. The villagers who participated in the "bridge" should first dig the nests on both ends of the river, set up horse forks, put the four family fir trees on each side of the bridge head on both sides, and make a bamboo frame with a bamboo frame. As a bridge base, the four fir trees are connected in the middle of the river at the end and lower of the bottom of the fir tree, bundled and sturdy with the bamboo contempt, so that the "bow bridge" is set up ...

Seeing Captain Li's very skillful bridge, we know that he is an experienced bridge veteran. No wonder, the leader of "Sandu Water" is more than 20 years.

"Captain Li, now he has built the bridge. Which projects do the villagers mainly increase their economic income?" Thinking of him, he said that he was not daring to go out of the door in order to pick up the child to get out of school.

"Oh! There is no worry about it now. Ninety percent of the young people are working out to make money! The elderly who stay at home will help the children, feed some chickens and pigs, and plant a few fields of crops in the field! "Is there any last photo of the bow bridge?"

"No, we didn't have a mobile phone or camera at that time!" Captain Li said regretfully.

"Everyone is here to eat!" Captain Li's wife walked into the living room to greet us to eat. Just during our talk, she and her daughter -in -law had been busy with dinner in the kitchen. At this time, it was less than 4 o'clock in the afternoon. Everyone said that they were not hungry, but Captain Li's family was difficult, so we were uncomfortable.

On the afternoon of August 31, 2022, the author of this article (first from left) and the secretary of the Zhongba Village Branch of Baosheng Township Yang Kang (first from the right), friend Yang Jinxiu (second from right, once the deputy township head of Baosheng Township), Zhongba Village Sandu Water Group Leader Li Wanzhong (second from left) took a photo in the dam in Li Wanzhong's home

After a meal, the family of Captain Li was farewell to each other, and it was cherished again and again. Captain Li wanted to send us some honey, and we all declined.

Along the way, I thought about this trip to visit the "Sandu Water" and "Bow Bridge", and it was more obtained.

For a long time, I have been worried about the "Bow Bridge", because since I first passed the bridge until I left in October 2001, I have gone through the "Sandu Water" group to work through the "it". Every time I cross the bridge, I have nothing more than gritting my teeth. I am extremely nervous and sweaty. But this time the "Bow Bridge", it disappeared without a trace. There was still a hint of concern in my heart. I really wanted to have a last photo. I think it must be extremely precious.

Although there is no photo of "Bow Bridge", although it is regrettable, when the "Sandu Water" group is seen, the villagers do not have to risk risks to cross the river, and they do not have to spend time around the mountains. The "Bow Bridge", which was washed away by the river that year, was so happy for them.

Undoubtedly, the Cement Bridge has become the "green channel" of the villagers of the "Sandu Water" group to become rich and well -off; the beautiful buildings standing in the "Sandu Water" stand, and the big cars, cars, and motorcycles driven in the dam dam. The majestic and majestic Mountains witnessed the dazzling changes of the villagers' lives. Looking at the new "scrolls" of the rural village with a good time in the past, I am extremely relieved, because I know that on the road of rural revitalization, the "Sandu Water" of the mountains and rusts and the beautiful and spirituality has not behind this great era of hardworking!
