On February 2 1 day, I walked out of the south gate of Chong 'an County and looked for a boat. In the northwest, a stream flows from fenshuiguan, and in the northeast, a stream flows from Yiling Pass in Wen Yi. After merging, it flows to the south of the county and flows into the sea through the county and province. The boat went down the river for 30 miles, only to see a hillside and a mountain peak standing independently by the stream. I was surprised and attached great importance to it. That's Man Ting Peak and that's Wang Feng.
There is a small stream to the south of the mountain peak, and the Wuyi River flows eastward into the big stream. The back of Chongyou Palace is close to the mountain peak and the front is close to the stream. I wanted to reach Jiuqu first, and then explore downstream, so I gave up revisiting the Palace and went upstream without boarding the gate. The running water is fast, and the trackers walk barefoot between streams and pull the boat forward. In the first song, Man Ting Peak and Wang Feng are on the right, and Lion Peak and Guanyin Rock are on the left.
On the right side of the stream, the place close to the stream is called Shuiguangshi, which is almost full of poems and lettering. On the right of the second song are teppanyaki and cold grinding rock, and on the left are Dou Feng and Yunv Mountain. Next to the iron shovel, there are three holes on the cliff wall, which are shaped like "pins". On the right side of the trilogy is Huixian Rock, and on the left are Xiaozang Peak and Dazang Peak.

On February 2 1, I went out to find a boat at the south gate of Chong 'an. A stream in the northwest comes from fenshuiguan, and a stream in the northeast comes from Wen Yi and Yilingguan. It meets in the south of the county and connects the county, province and sea. Thirty miles down the river, I saw a mountain peak by the stream, a lonely mountain peak. If I get more attention, then I will be Man Ting Peak and Wang Feng. There is a small stream to the south of the peak, which flows eastward into a big stream, namely Wuyi River. Chongyou Palace is near the top of the mountain, facing the stream.
I wanted to reach Jiuqu first, and then I went down the river to explore the calendar, so I went out of the palace and went against the current. The current was so fast that the boat squatted in the middle of the stream to pull the boat. The first song, Man Ting Peak and Wang Feng are on the right, Lion Peak and Guanyin Rock are on the left.
On the right side of the stream, those near the water say "Shuiguang Stone", and the inscription is almost full. On the right side of the second song is Zhang He Han Mo Yan, and on the left is He Yunv Mountain. Next to the board, the cliff stands steeply, and there are three holes in the middle for the word "pin". On the right side of the trilogy is Huixian Rock, and on the left are Xiaozang Peak and Dazang Peak.

Creative background:
Xu Xiake's travel can be roughly divided into two stages. The first stage started with Ding Weinian (1607) boating on Taihu Lake and climbing Dongting Mountain. But because of his mother, he didn't travel far, so he had to travel well. Although his mother encouraged him and made him a travel crown, it was not until the fifth year of the apocalypse (1625) that he began to travel for a long time and even stayed at home all the year round.
For example, thirty-eight years in Wanli (16 10), thirty-nine years (161), forty years (16 12) and forty-three years (/kloc) Three years after the apocalypse (1623), I traveled for 54 days.
In the second stage, from the death of his mother Ren in the fifth year of the Apocalypse (1625) to the twelfth year of Chongzhen (1639), he "stayed in the rocky habitat and marched unimpeded", during which he traveled to Zhejiang, Fujian, Jiangxi, Chu, western Guangdong, Guizhou, Yunnan and other places.
Xu Xiake, a Huawei native of the State of Wu, wrote "Historical Records", saying that his travels were "the strangest, with quicksand in his later years, climbing the Kunlun Tianzhu, joining Xifan as a magic weapon, hiking alone on Jizu Mountain, and traveling ten times in Yu Wanli, because he wanted to explore the source of the river and find three Long Mai".
Xu Xiake's travel diary was not compiled in his own lifetime. In the thirteenth year of Chongzhen (1640), after he returned to his hometown from Yunnan, he entrusted his travel notes manuscript to his tutor Ji. Ji refused at first, but when he was about to accept the task, Xu Xiake died. These manuscripts were taken away by Xu's friends, but some of them were lost.
Soon, Wang went to Fujian to be an official, and only arranged the manuscript slightly, that is, returned it to Xu Xiake, the son of Xu Xiake. Xu Yi still entrusted the manuscript to Ji and said, "Without my teacher, you can't be a saint." Therefore, Ji "searched all the relics to make up for their loyalty, and recorded them as articles because of different places."
Xu Xiake's Travels has formed a complete book style, which is the final work of Ji and the first draft of Xu Xiake's Travels.
