Both wind and fog have been cleared out. Sky and mountain are merged into one color. My boat is drifting down with the current.I care not whether it’s heading east or west. In the aboufrom Fuyang to Tonglu, mountains are exotic and rivers are distinctive. They are all one of a kind in this world. All the water is palish white, and the thousand-zhang bottom is visible.
Swimming fish and small rocks can all be seen with no obstruction. Water gushes forward like arrows. Waves surge like galloping steeds. Tall mountains flanking river on both shores have growths of chilly lush green trees.
Hills follow the contour to go up. They jostle to get higher and further. To compete for height, they shoot straight up. Thousands of peaks are formed this way. Spring water splashes against the rocks and makes clinking sounds.Beautiful birds chirp to one another, and they twitter in harmony. Cicadas keep buzzing continuously. Apes howl for a long, long time. Those social climbers and fame seekers would feel content in seeing the stately peaks.
Those busy high-flying executives would be indulged in the beauty of the valley. Sideway branches block off the sky, and daytime would be dark as nighttime.
Where sparse twigs crisscross, sometimes a glimpse of the sun can be caught.
