Shuanghekou has an ancient jumping bridge that facilitates people crossing the river beach, and the bridge pier has a deep footprint, telling a beautiful story.

Jumping bridge on the beach of Shuanghekou

According to legend, a long time ago, there was a very wide and wide river beach here, which is the only way to east to west. The two river ditch on both sides of the river beach converge here. People take off their shoes from here. When the river gaps up, it will take risks to rush to the river.

Throughout the year, the group of carp and catfish swimming around the river beach. The fisherman wore a bamboo leaf bucket, his mouth -bodied smoke rods, a brown leaf -leaf clothing, barefoot, sitting on a small stool, staring at the floating seeds on the water, seemed good.

That year, one morning after the autumn, people got up and heard the trees. Experienced villagers hurriedly picked up their hoe and dig into some earthworms in the soil. Grab the fishing rod, the little stool is a small stool to come to the river beach to fish. The reason for sweating, people caught one after another, and couldn't laugh.

A long time ago, the ancient stone beach

Suddenly, the clouds were densely set, the thunder flashed, the wind whistled, and the rains rushed into the face, and the river beach rose. Speed ​​like a Pentium Mustang, and the waves are like mad lions. The fisherman was too late to evacuate, and even the fish was rushed under the river beach, and the "rushing" went towards the Yangtze River.

The rain stopped, the family of fishing rushed to the river beach, and saw a bare scene of bareness, crying heartbreaking lungs, breaking liver and intestines ...

Shijiawan's Shi Eryi became a widow before the confinement, and the baby in her arms cried and died. The single Han Shi Niu next door was very poor at home, and his father and mother died in his early years. The tall man usually lives with a short job, and he does not ask his wife in his early thirties. He is loyal and honest, and he doesn't say much all day. Seeing the situation of Shi Eryu, he went to help her take the water. The neighbors met. One year later, He and Meimei became a family. He was in a heartache to his successive melon, and the melon was good, looking at his father, laughed, and smiled at the simple and kind love of the stone cow. He has an endless beef power. In addition to carrying his own housework, he also helped the widow in the Bay to send water. At the beginning, his wife Wang did not respond. For a long time, the three forks were like a rising water -raising frog in the ears of Shi Niu: "Will others say the West?" Shi Niu smiled without a word.

On the first day of August of that year, Wang's name was Shi Niu went to the street to buy pieces of meat and dried wine for Donggua to make a living. Tian Gang was dazzling, and Shi Niu went. Wang repeatedly told: "I bought the vegetables back to cook lunch early.

Shi Niu Fengfeng rushed to the street to buy a good meat and drink, and ran back to the foot. When I came to the river beach, suddenly, the wind and rain rose, the river soared, blocking the past pedestrians. People are anxious, and some roll up their pants step by step, and some of them are sitting up and raising their sedan seedlings. Shi Niu rolled up his pants to cross the river. Suddenly, a baby behind him cried and asked, "Dad, we crossed the river with such a large water? Lang Zhong said that he was not saved when he was too late. Hey? "Shi Niu turned to see, the baby was about seven or eight years old, with a short head, a thin body, and his father's eyes were blind. Dad was holding a stick in his hands anxiously. When Shi Niu saw this, he stepped forward to the back and said, "Mao Er, hold my shirt corner Mo Song, loosen and be poured away by the water ..."

Shi Niu gritted his teeth, and the baby pulled tightly, stepped step by step, walking towards the rolling flood towards the other side. Suddenly, a wave headed and covered his face, scaring the baby to call the sky, Shi Niu pulled out his left hand and grabbed him tightly. On the other side, the father and son were grateful. The baby raised his mouth and said, "The kind, I grew up to repay you for two days, my name is the turkey. Dad called the bite. Shi Niu watched the name of the two and smiled. I saw an old man watching again He was sorrowful, and hurriedly bid farewell to the two. He pulled the old man to his back and carried it ... so, carrying one after another, back again ...

It was almost noon, and Wang did not see Shi Niu buying vegetables home. In the eyes of the winter melon, Da Lao saw that his father crossed the river on the river beach. Running to the river shouted to his father, "Dad, the mother told you to take the vegetables back and cook." Shi Niu suddenly realized. Back at home, Wang resentful. The non -words Shi Niu said aggrieved: "The water rises so much, people can't pass the river, I will memorize what there is." Wang's crying: "You know that the water rises so much, in case you are in case of you, in case you I was poured away by the water, wouldn't I become a widow again? "Talking, the tears flowed out ...

That night, Shi Niu was insomnia. Every time the water is rising, there are a few lives on the river beach, either the Zhang family's family is broken or the Li family's wife is scattered. If you repair the stone bridge on the river beach, you will not be afraid of drowning people. But another thought, how can I hold such a heavy stone in Xiu Shiqiao? Think, think, you can't repair the stone bridge to repair the pier bridge. right! This idea is good.

The wife learned that she laughed and laughed. In a blink of an eye, he frowned and said with a bitter face: "You can move alone?"

Shi Niu patted his chest, and I had strength. "

Wang also said, "The river beach is so wide, why do you want to repair?"

Shi Niu said: "A stubbornness a day, ten days in ten days, and one lack of An Yilu.

Wang said: "You can repair the pier bridge, you still have to understand the craftsmanship."

Shi Niu said: "Master worships the master." Shi Niu said that he would do it, and he talked about a master of the stone craftsman in Luo Jiachang. But I walked together but was stunned. How do he teach his eyesight? I was wondering, and a little baby came out of the house and pulled Shi Niu's hand and said, "Oh, big benefactor, why are you here?" Shi Niu saw the turkey man who had brought the river a few days ago. Busy said, "Chicken, this is your house? I'll come to your father to learn the stonemith." Ji Gong patted his little hand and said, "Okay. Don't look at my dad as a blind man, find him, find him There are so many people who learn the stonemiths, but he refuses to accept the apprentice. He has moved a lot of energy to this matter with his mother. "

As soon as the words were fake, the chicken's mother came in from the door. He stepped forward and pulled his mother in front of Shi Niu and said, "Mother, this is a big benefactor who carried his father in the river a few days ago to worship his father to learn the stonemith. Don't you know that your father teaches or not?"

Bite until I cough twice and said, "Chicken, Most of the adults, Most of the adults! I definitely won't teach ..."

Without a foothold, the Ji Gong said flushed: "Daddy is bad, cann't the benefactor pass the river that day, can the mother be saved?"

Bite 哈 hahahaha and laughed: "Run when you hear half of the sentence. I mean that I will definitely not teach those who just make money. The benefactor comes to learn to make money. I teach it."

The chicken eyes were round: "Oh! I almost scared my urine."

Although the bite is blind, no one can compare with the four -wheeled stone of the stones. The speed of opening the mountain is amazing and no one can compare; no one can compare with the technology of the jumping pier bridge. Therefore, he was respected and jealous of the adulterer. Although the adulterer hurt his eyesight, he still had a skill. He waited for this day to accept a disciples who were good at doing good.

Shi Niu did not live up to the hard work of the master, and his three -year apprenticeship career returned.

In order to allow Shi Niu to concentrate on repairing the bridge, Wang's plan to do housework at home, his son was responsible for sending meals and water.

Shi Niu came to the river beach and came and went again and again, and went to the trip again. He was wondering, a row of stones or An two stones? An Yizhu Stone can only cross the river by one person; the two stones can cross the river in both directions; An Sanzheng stones, the animal horses can cross the river at the same time. An Sanxian has a good stone, but it takes a lot of work and stones. How much is suitable for the length and width of the stone? One foot high, the river water rises higher than it; the three -foot height is not afraid of rising the river. Because, these years are the highest and not three feet. It seems that one foot is long, two -foot wide, three -foot -tall stones. He chose the Qingshiping, Sanli Road, Sanli Road, Heyan, where there is a stone mountain that is hard, the stone source, endless, and inexhaustible stone mountains. Shi Niu chose the quarry, and took half a year's eyes.

In the 30th month of the year, Wang said, "Winter melon, the New Year tonight, call your father to come back for dinner."

After eating the year, I said, "Winter melon, wash your feet with your feet, wash your feet, wash your feet and let Dad go to bed early." Shi Niu said, "Mo Duan, I will turn around immediately, and I will open the mountains early in the morning." Wang said, "You haven't been sleeping at home for half a year. Isn't it the same to go back tomorrow?" Shi Niu said: "Tonight sleeping at the quarry field, and it will open the mountains and stones at home. Walking. "Donggua said," Dad wants to repair early, not afraid of raising the water. "Shi Niu smiled and took the door with a smile.

As dawn, Shi Niu held a drill with his left hand and raised his hand hammer with his right hand. The time of a bag of cigarettes was made in a row, stuffed it into the cut, raised a hundred pounds of sledgehammer, roared to Kaishanzi, and hit the cuts and hammered again and again. The work of Kaishan was really hard. I didn't see a small seam for a long time. The stone cow took off her clothes and pants, and the torch shredded pants were soaked by sweat. He put down the sledgehammer, drank a scoop of cold water, and watched the cigarette rod in his mouth and looked at the cutty. Picked up the water scoop in the cut -off eyes, put down the cigarette rod and lifted the hammer, bulged up the belly, and roared the number to hit dozens of hammers back and forth. Finally cracked a seam. Hurriedly put down the sledgehammer, picked up the crowbar to kick his feet and pry up a few times, and a big stone rolled below. Shi Niu wiped the sweat on his body: "Hahahaha ... I thought the hammer was not loose. I still pry you open."

The stone cave next to the quarry

This stone is a good material for repairing the bridge. There are at least three or five pounds per piece. At first glance, the sky was watched. How could such a heavy stone be transported to the river beach in Sanli Road? The nose and eyes are sad. Yezi smoke pumped one pole and another pole, and the smoke fluttered the birds on the tree and flew to the group. Suddenly, a bird's shit was spilled on his cigarette rod. I was so angry: "The birds when I do, I hate it!" When he looked up, a "pong" brain hit the green bar tree, and he was busy reaching out to grab the trunk. He didn't grab the fall to the ground. A green bag suspended, so painful that he crooked his mouth and rubbed it gently.

Suddenly, the stone cow patted the mud on her body and said, "Isn't God's pointing? Cut the green bar tree to see it into the ground, then pry the stone up with a crowbar to pry up the stone up. Then take a look at the problem of rolling forward. Isn't the problem of transporting stones be solved? "

He hurried home and borrowed ax and saw it from the carpenter master in the Bay. A few green bar trees were cut into sections and one section. This method is really spiritual.

The stone was transported to the river beach, and Shi Niu was very happy. But his wife Wang said, what is this year? As a result, Wang and Donggua also came to transport stones together. Shi Niu pulled in front, Wang prying behind, and pushing the melon pushing forward. The sound of "Hey Hey" shouted. Seeing this scene, the people in the bay came, the people who passed the way came, and the bite of her eyes blinded the master, and they also came with a large group of people. Some are transported stones, some are delivered with tea, and there are also meals, which are mighty like a beautiful landscape. On the day of Shiqiao, people came from all directions, some knocked gongs and drums, some set off firecrackers, some twisted Yangge, and some lion dances. A white -bearded man said, "It's okay, again, you will be worried that the rising river will marry his son's daughter -in -law. The Shi Niu family is hard work!"

Everyone immediately shouted that they were going to wear big red flowers, but they couldn't see their figures. Suddenly, a baby roared: "It's not good, it's not good, the melon and his father and mother shouted in the stone cave in Qingshiping's quarry.

When people heard the news, they stretched out their feet towards Qingshiping's quarry cave. The Shi Niu family left in the cave with a peaceful manner because of tiredness. People were crying and sad.

The entrance is crowded with people. The turkey couldn't be squeezed in, so he had to go to the mountain castle to look at it. "Ah! Before I repaid him, he left." Tears were like a dyke. I became a stone man looking at the entrance ...

Some people say that he is too sad. Some people say that he is a fairy. He praises Shi Niu Xiuqiao to embrace great love, and some people say that he will always tell this beautiful and touching story ...
