Nine Passes of Yinshui
Tongshan Yinshui Cave has narrow corridors, wide halls and various stalactite wonders. It is divided into nine passes according to the characteristics of the cave: why is it called a pass? Woolen cloth? Because before the development of Yinshuilong Cave, there were many narrow tunnels, like passes. It is very difficult to pass through these passes. In order to thank the developers and builders of Yinshuidong, these passes were named Pass.
13. The first pass: Zhengyang Pass
You all know the Zhengyang Gate in Beijing. Zhengyang Gate is also called the Qianmen. What we are entering by boat now is the first gate of the Dragon Palace. Pass, so it was called Zhengyang Pass. After passing this hurdle, I wish you all success in your career and studies.
14. Father and son guard the gate
Usually when entering the first pass, there are generals guarding it. Everyone sees here a general wearing armor standing guarding Zhengyang Pass. In the distance is the general's father who has just returned home from his shift. He looks back at his son from time to time. Seeing his son guarding his post with great force, he reluctantly goes home. . Therefore, this landscape is named Father and Son Guarding the Pass.
15. Immortal Escort
Because there are many beautiful scenery in Yinshui Dragon Palace, in order for guests to sail safely and enjoy the beautiful scenery, even the gods from the sky came to Dragon Palace to protect everyone. You see , isn’t this an escorting immortal? !
16. The Lady of Deliverance
Look here, Lady Guanyin is standing on the bank with auspicious clouds, holding a child in both hands. As the saying goes, if you are sincere, you will be spiritual. If you ask for a man or a woman, Guanyin will answer your request and make you get what you want. Friends, you can make a wish here, and you may get unexpected rewards. Here I wish you all a happy and happy family.
17. The Antarctic longevity star
Do you know about the Antarctic fairy? Legend has it that he is the Immortal Emperor, a god who is in charge of people's health and longevity, so he is also called the "Longevity Star". As you can see, there are two Antarctic longevity stars here.
18. Carp leaps over the Dragon Gate
Look at the right side of our boat, a golden carp leaps out of the water. It turns out that it heard that there is a Dragon Gate in the Yinshui Dragon Palace. As long as it jumps over the Dragon Gate You can transform into a dragon, and then you can travel around the world. So it finally came to the edge of the dragon gate after a lot of hard work. It excitedly put its head out of the water and looked up at the dragon gate: there were two magical dragon gates. I wonder which one is the real dragon gate? Can you tell this little carp?
19. The second pass: Longmen Pass
Now, we pass the second pass of the nine hidden water passes: Longmen Pass, which is the pass that the little carp wants to jump over.
20. Divine Boots and Fairy Peach
Look at the pillar in front of you, it is actually a magical boot.
After Sun Wukong made a big fuss at the Peach Fair, he knew he had gotten into a big trouble. So, he picked up the royal wine and peaches in his pocket, walked out of the Nantianmen, and headed straight for Huaguo Mountain. Drunkness hit, and the clouds fell involuntarily. But he went to the wrong door and came to Yinshui Nanshan. At this time, the alcohol hit me, my whole body felt hot, and my feet were itchy, so I sat down and scratched them. It's useless to scratch the itch. He took off his boots to scratch, and then took out a fairy peach to taste. When he was feeling proud, he suddenly heard the sound of drums, lightning and thunder. When he looked up, he saw heavenly soldiers and generals chasing him in the clouds. In a hurry, he dropped the peach, picked up his bag and drove away in the clouds. Later, Yaksha, who was inspecting the Hidden Water Dragon Palace, found fairy peaches and boots on the mountainside, so he picked them up and prepared to give them to the Dragon King. However, when the boots and fairy peaches encountered the water in the Dragon Palace, they grew bigger and bigger. They were too big to move here. If you move, you will stay here. Look, the fairy peach in front is still growing up?
21. A detailed explanation of the origin of the oval tunnel
Everyone looks forward to the cave passage. The cave roof and both sides of the cave passage are arc-shaped, forming an oval cross-section. It shows that this cave passage was formed below the underground water surface in the early stage. In other words, the underground water completely filled the entire cave, and due to the action of water flow, this oval cross section was formed.
22. Tenglong Dam
In front of you is Tenglong Dam. It is the only tourist project in China that allows you to cross the dam by boat in the cave. Please sit tight and hold on tight as Tenglong leaps over the dam. I wish you prosperity!
23. The dragon raises its head
Everyone looks to the right and sees a stalagmite connected to the stone curtain, like a dragon raising its head. According to folklore, every second day of the second lunar month is the day when the Dragon King in charge of clouds and rain raises his head. From now on, the rain will gradually increase. Therefore, there is a popular proverb: "On February 2, the dragon raises its head; when the big warehouse is full, the small warehouse flows."
(There is also a myth about this among the people: Wu Zetian became emperor, angered the Jade Emperor, and ordered the Dragon King of the Four Seas not to rain on the world for three years. Soon, the Dragon King in charge of Tianhe heard Hearing the cries of the people, looking at the tragic scene of people dying of starvation, and worrying about the end of life in the world, he defied the Jade Emperor's will and brought rain to the world. When the Jade Emperor learned about it, he knocked the Dragon King down to the mortal world and crushed him under a mountain. In order to save the Dragon King, a monument was erected on the mountain: "The Dragon King's rainfall violates the laws of heaven, and he will be punished for the rest of the world. If you want to return to Lingxiao Pavilion, you will have to wait until the golden beans bloom." In order to save the Dragon King, people went everywhere to find the blooming golden beans. When I was planting corn seeds, I thought that corns are like golden beans. When they are fried, they blossom. Isn’t that just golden beans blooming? So every household pops corns and sets up a table in the yard to burn incense and offer the flowered "golden beans". The Dragon King looked up and knew that the people were saving him, so he shouted to the Jade Emperor: "The golden beans are blooming, let me out quickly!" When the Jade Emperor saw the golden beans blooming in every courtyard in the world, he had to send an order to the Dragon King to return. Go to heaven and continue to bring clouds and rain to the world. Since then, people have had the habit of eating popcorn)
24. Sanxing Pavilion
Look at the top of the right wall, because there are three. Closely connected with the stone pillars, we named this scenic spot Sanxing Pavilion. The three stars refer to the lucky star, the lucky star and the longevity star. Standing under this Sanxing Pavilion, the three stars of happiness, wealth and longevity shine brightly. I wish everyone "good fortune like the East China Sea and abundant wealth." Longevity than Nanshan."
(Below the wide stone curtain is cemented gravel, and above the stone curtain are strange stone pillars. This is a very interesting geological phenomenon: the gravel should have been at the bottom of the underground river bed, but now it lives on the top of the cave. This is because with the uplift of the earth's crust, the underground river water cut downwards. After millions of years of geological processes, the ancient river bed became the cave roof, and the cave space also increased. At the same time, due to the accumulation of water dripping from the cave roof and water flowing on the cave wall. The same effect forms a strange stone curtain and stone pillars)
25. The third pass: Shanmen Pass
Now we pass the third pass of Yinshui Nine Pass: Shanmen Pass. The original meaning of Shanmen is the gate of a Buddhist temple. The meaning is that passing this gate is equivalent to entering the gate of wisdom. From now on, you can have less troubles and enjoy happiness in the paradise of the world.
26. The ancient bell of Hanshan Temple
“In Hanshan Temple outside the city of Suzhou, the bell rings at midnight to the passenger ship.” As you can see, the ancient bell in front is the bell of Hanshan Temple. The bells here need to be felt with the heart, not heard with the ears. If you feel the sound of the bell is distant, it means you will live a long life; if you feel the sound of the bell is pure, it means you are a very upright person; if you feel the sound of the bell is pleasant, it means everything is going well for you. Of course, if you feel the bell is desolate, then your mood is the same as that of the poor scholar outside Hanshan Temple.
27. Hanshan Temple
Look to the left. This is Hanshan Temple. Hanshan Temple is famous all over the world because of the ancient poem "Mooring at Maple Bridge at Night" written by Tang Dynasty poet Zhang Ji, and the ancient pines in Hanshan Temple are also lush, green and tall.
28. The Frog Prince and the Witch
Everyone went to look and saw a big frog in front of the ancient temple. The frog was originally a prince. Because he offended the witch, he was cast a spell by the witch and the prince turned into a frog. One day, the Frog Prince was told by the Dragon King that he could break the curse by listening to the scriptures at Hanshan Temple. So the Frog Prince came to Hanshan Temple and listened to the scriptures here every day in order to restore his human form as soon as possible. So where is the witch? I will give you a clue here and ask you to look for it. If you can’t find it, I will tell you where the witch is.
Sworn Stone
Everyone may know I have heard of the story of friendship in Taoyuan.
It tells the story of three ambitious young people in Hebei Province at the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty. They were named Zhang Fei, Guan Yu, and Liu Bei. They were unwilling to live a mediocre life and were determined to restore the troubled times. Moreover, they had similar personalities and the same aspirations, so they decided to become brothers of the opposite sex. The three of them came to the peach garden and made a blood alliance and became brothers. They could not be born in the same year and the same month, but they only wanted to die in the same year, the same month and the same day. This is the Taoyuan friendship. Because the friendship between the three was so deep that it turned into a sworn stone. You see, in front of us is the sworn stone of these three people.
29. Yougu Longtan
The place we are now is Yougu Longtan. You can see the cliffs on both sides of the river are thousands of meters high and the water is bottomless. It is the deepest place in Yinshui Dragon Palace and the deepest canyon. High place. Now let us carefully savor this hidden water realm.
30. Aquatic Echeveria
"Scorching lotuses are auspicious, and the pavilions emerge from the water." Everyone looked over here, and there were also lotuses blooming in the Hidden Water Dragon Palace, but they were Echeverias. So it is called aquatic stone lotus.
31. Swan's Kiss
Please look to the front left. A pair of white swans have stretched out their graceful long necks and stand there gracefully, as if expecting something: Swan kiss! So, let me ask you, did these two swans kiss?
Now let’s take a closer look. Two swans give each other a passionate kiss. This scene is named Swan's Kiss.
32. Gold and Silver Pier
Okay, we have arrived at the other end of Yinshui Dragon Palace, Gold and Silver Pier. Please get off the boat in order, be careful of the steps, and pay attention to safety.
33. Gold and Silver Waterfall
Please look forward and see the silver waterfall formed by the water falling from the dam. Looking here again, the entire cave wall is covered with flowstones, forming a beautiful golden waterfall. Although the water falls thousands of feet, it is silent, reflecting and contrasting with the dynamic silver waterfall, forming a beautiful picture. This scene is named Jinyin Waterfall.
The cave is a constant temperature, humid, and dark environment with a constant microclimate, fresh air, and very low levels of harmful gases, dust, microorganisms, pollutants and other allergic substances, which is very beneficial to human respiratory function. The concentration of negative ions in the air in the cave is 5 to 10 times higher than outside the cave, making it a veritable natural oxygen bar. The cave environment is quiet and free of human interference and stimulation, which can improve people's environmental psychological functions and promote physical recovery. Generally speaking, the air negative ions in the city are about 300 to 400 per cubic centimeter, while the air negative ions in the cave are more than 2,000. The air negative ions here at the Jinyin Waterfall have reached 30,000 per square centimeter.
The second largest scenic spot: Yougu Longyin Scenic Area
Now we have the second largest scenic spot in Tongshan Hidden Water Cave today. Just now we took a boat tour, and then after walking for a while, we took a second tour: taking a train tour. The train is like a dragon, traveling through the valley, so the second largest scenic spot is named the Valley Longyin Scenic Area.
34. Bat Canyon
Perhaps because of the high-quality air of Jinyin Waterfall, tens of thousands of bats once lived in this section of the canyon cave, so this section of the canyon was named It's called Bat Gorge.
35. Mermaid
In order to watch the beautiful gold and silver waterfall, a mermaid also swam to the shore. When tourists came to watch, the mermaid shyly turned around and sat aside, We can see the mermaid's beautiful long hair and delicate body. We should walk over quickly so as not to delay the mermaid's viewing of the waterfall.
36. Listening to Tao to solve doubts (explanation of the cause of the two-story cave)
(This is the only remaining upper cave passage in the cave, allowing us to experience the memory left by the crustal movement in person . In mountainous areas, we can often see deformation and displacement of rock layers, which are caused by crustal movements. Geological structures mainly include folds and faults. Rock layers are generally horizontal when formed and occur due to stress. A series of bending deformations is called a fold. The rock fractures due to force and has obvious relative displacement along the fracture surface are called faults. Folds often form mountains, and faults often form cliffs and valleys. In karst areas, caves are formed along faults. .
We said earlier that Yinshuidong was mainly formed along faults in the northeast direction, so where is the evidence? Please take a look at the obvious traces of faults here: fault fracture zones and fault scratches.
The most obvious evidence of crustal movement in Yinshui Cave is running water. Running water is a geological process and will also leave geological relics, namely pebble accumulation. Look here, the pebble accumulation has left the current The river bed is already very high, so why are the pebbles on the river bed piled high? It's crustal movement. At the same time that the earth's crust was lifted up by crustal movements, the river water continued to cut downwards, so the pebbles formed in the early days were accumulated away from the modern river bed. )
37. Castles in the Air
Once upon a time there was a rich man. He saw a magnificent three-story building in the home of another rich man. He was very envious and wanted to build a more beautiful one. Three-story building. So he hired a carpenter to help him build such a building." When the carpenter began to lay the foundation, layer by layer, the rich man asked the carpenter: "Why don't you build a third floor. "
The carpenter replied: "Impossible! How can we build a third floor instead of the lower two floors? "
The rich man said stubbornly: "I just want to get to the top! "The carpenter had no choice but to build the castle in the air for him.
38. Immortals Protecting the Pill
Look, isn't this the alchemy furnace of Taishang Laojun? And what are the gods below doing here? It seems that some people are whispering to each other from time to time.
It turns out that when the gods heard that the monkey was released under Wuzhi Mountain, and the little monkey was running towards Lao Jun. Come, they want to steal the elixir again, so they all gathered around the alchemy furnace and helped Taishang Laojun protect the elixir. This is the Queen Mother, and this is Taibai. Venus.
(Now I want to tell you briefly how stalactites are formed. In fact, most of the stalactites up and down in front of us are stalactites formed by dripping water, called dripstone deposits. It turns out that there is carbon along the top of the cave. When the water seeping out of the cracks in the salt rock enters the cave, due to the change from the pressured state of the cracks to the free space of the cave body, carbon dioxide escapes from the water, and the calcium carbonate solution becomes supersaturated and calcium carbonate precipitates, forming a layer on the surface of the water droplets. The thin crystal film then forms a slender, hollow, white goose tube. When the water supply from the crack in the cave roof increases, the water not only seeps down from the center of the goose tube, but also flows and deposits in a thin film from the outer wall of the goose tube, continuously. It grows downward and thickens layer by layer, forming an inverted cone-shaped stalactite. The cross-section of the stalactite is a concentric structure. The water droplets on the roof of the cave continue to fall, and during the falling process, the carbon dioxide further escapes. , it will continue to deposit when it falls on the bottom of the cave. Such sediments correspond to the stalactite points and grow upward from the bottom of the cave. The internal structure of stalagmites is different from that of stalactites. It is layer by layer. Growing upward, the lower part is old and the upper part is young, and the top of the stalagmite is round. When water drops fall from a high place, it forms a flat top shape, and the height continues to increase, and finally it becomes a concave top. Drop cup shape. Stalagmites and stalactites are connected to form stone pillars.
Look at the surrounding stalagmites, stalactites and stone pillars. Can you tell them apart?)
Next, we will take a short break here
39. Nuwa mends the sky
In Chinese myths and legends, there is a goddess who created humans. She is called Nuwa. It is said that she is. The woman with the head of a human and the body of a snake has done many good deeds for mankind. Among them, the one that moved people the most was Nuwa's attempt to mend the sky.
It is said that the God of Water and the God of Fire were fighting. The God of Water refused to accept it and smashed her head against Mount Buzhou, holding up the sky. The pillar was broken, a big hole appeared in the sky, and the water from the Tianhe River kept leaking. Humanity was facing an unprecedented disaster. Nuwa witnessed this strange disaster and decided to repair the sky to stop this disaster. p>
After a lot of hard work, the work of mending the sky was about to be completed, but she found that there were not enough five-color stones. What should she do? The compassionate Nuwa had to sacrifice her life to use her body to mend the sky. The big hole. Nuwa finally repaired the sky, and the world returned to peace, and colorful clouds appeared. Nuwa used the limbs of the turtle to support the blue sky in the southeast and northwest. You see, here is one of the turtle-leg pillars. .
(Reference knowledge: Actually, this is a very interesting geological phenomenon: the river pebbles that should be at the bottom of the underground river bed are now high on the top of the cave.
This is because as the earth's crust moved uplifted, the underground river water cut downwards. After millions of years of geological processes, the ancient river bed became the cave roof, and the cave space also increased. )
40. Long March 1 and Long March 2
It goes without saying that these two big stalagmites look like rockets. The thin one is Long March 1. Send Satellites are in the sky. This thick one is for the Long March 2, used to transport the spacecraft. Because the spacecraft is heavier, of course the thrust also needs to be greater. Long March 1 will be much more powerful than Long March 2.
41. The Golden House Hidden Beauty
Look, the golden stone curtain formed by running water looks like a golden house, and under the stone curtain are white and delicate jade stalagmites. Therefore, this scene is named Jinwu Cangjiao.
(Story reference: Hidden Beauty in the Golden House is about Liu Che, Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty, who loved Gillian very much when he was young. When his aunt wanted to betroth his daughter Gillian to him and asked for his opinion, he immediately replied: "Okay! If you get Gillian as a wife, you can store it in a golden house." This is the origin of the term "golden house to hide a charming girl")
42. Immortal Field
Previously. We have talked about the dripping water deposits in stalactite deposits, forming stalactites, stalagmites and stone pillars. Then when the amount of dripping water increases and water flows out in sheets or lines from the cave roof, cave bottom, cave walls and slopes, carbon dioxide rapidly Escape, forming various smooth flaky calcium carbonate deposits called flowstones. According to different production locations, those produced on the cave roof are called sky flowstones, such as stone flags, stone curtains, etc.; those produced on the cave walls are called wall flowstones, such as stone belts, stone waterfalls, stone curtains, cave shields, shield tents, etc.; The bottom flowstone at the bottom of the cave is called bottom flowstone, such as calcified slab and flowstone slab. The flowstones on the cave walls or slopes form complex flowstone dams called stone terraces, commonly known as fairy fields. Everyone looks like this is a fairy field.
This tour has only reached the above part. Since it is still under development, we will go to the following part next time:
The fourth level: Throat Gate Pass
Now we What you have passed is the fourth level of the Nine Hidden Water Levels, Throat Gate Level. Why is it called Throat Gate Pass? One is because this is the narrowest part of the entire Hidden Water Cave, just like the throat, and the lowest place to enter the Dragon Palace under the sea;
43. Time has traces
It is said that time has no trace , but if you look here, the traces of time are clearly visible. Every trace is the past year. If you count, there are more than 200,000 traces of human beings, which means it is more than 200,000 years old.
According to the age determination of the stalagmites in the Yinshui Cave, the growth rate of the stalagmites in the Yinshui Cave averages 5 millimeters per hundred years. The oldest stalagmite in the cave, just above the second-floor hall, is 400,000 years old; the second is the large stalagmite by the underground river, which is 200,000 years old; and those with a height of less than 1 meter are only 20,000 years old; the youngest Most of them are white stalactites that are still forming, some of which are no more than 5 years old.
44. Two turtles carrying treasures
Look at this Houmen, there is a small turtle carrying pearls and agate on the right, and a big turtle carrying a mountain of silver and gold on the left. OK, seems to be waiting for everyone to come.

Unknowingly, we came to the fifth level of Yinshui's nine levels, Xuanmen Pass.
Xuanmenguan is a passage formed by Yinshui Cave controlled by the geological structure in the northwest. It happens to be a turning point with the passage formed by the fault in the northeast direction. After this turning point, the tunnel continues along the original direction until outside the cave.
49. Day and night half the sky
Can we see day and night in the cave? The answer is yes. Look, everyone, this is the sky at night, full of stars. This is half of the sky during the day, and the sun is shining brightly in the sky.

It is said that there was a man named Zhang Daoqing in Tongshan who studied Taoism in Maolu Mountain, Jiangxi Province. Passed the mastership to his elder brother who was not as good as him. Zhang Daoqing couldn't help but took his master's Zi Ling sword and secretly returned to Tongshan. It is said that the Purple Ling Sword emits a faint purple light all over its body, and it can kill demons and cut iron like clay. The Taoist priest walked to Nanshan and arrived at the Yinshui Cave. The Dragon King asked Taoist Zhang to try his sword skills. The Taoist priest did not refuse. At that time, he recited the mantra and saw the sword automatically break out and cut a stone pillar in front of him into two pieces. From then on, The Dragon King looked at Taoist Zhang with admiration and became a Taoist friend.

From then on, the world had fire that spread light and warmth; in the history of ancient Greece, peace messengers traveled throughout Greece, holding up The torch is everywhere announcing the cessation of all hostilities during the Olympic Games. Therefore, the torch has become a symbol of the Olympic Games. In front of us, Ma Liang's magic brush paints whatever he wants. We wanted him to draw a golden mountain, but the golden mountain blocked our way. Ma Liang then drew a road, and we passed under Jinshan.
55. The sixth level: Jinshan Pass + Underwater World

Look above this cave, these stalactites are like fierce lightning bolts, piercing the sky and shooting straight to the earth. A huge thunder struck through the rocks, and rocks scattered everywhere on the ground. Why are there so many rocks and arrow-shaped stalactites here? In fact, this is the result of cave collapse.
Cave collapse is the product of cave development to adulthood. When the cave space continues to expand due to dissolution and erosion, and exceeds the stable strength of the rock, collapse occurs, and collapse accumulation is formed. For a stone. The cave then temporarily stabilized and the stalactites grew again. Later, as the cave developed, the cave bottom and rocks moved slowly, and new stalactites were formed. Some fallen stalagmites bear witness to these movements.
61. The Seventh Pass: Yin Yang Pass
Look ahead, there are two passes, one up and one down. Therefore, we named this pass the seventh of the nine passes of Yinshui. Guan: Yin-Yang Pass.

68. Pisa Cathedral
In front of the Leaning Tower of Pisa and the Hand of God is the famous Pisa Cathedral.
69. The toad eats swan meat
People often say: the toad wants to eat swan meat, which means it is wishful thinking. But when you look up, you can see that this toad has really eaten the swan meat. Not only that, there are two cygnets behind this swan.
(Story reference: A long time ago, the Queen Mother held a peach party and invited various gods and goddesses. The Toad Fairy was also invited. The Toad Fairy happened to meet the Goose Fairy in the Queen Mother’s back garden. , was fascinated by its beauty, and was scolded by the Goose Fairy and sued to the Queen Mother. The Queen Mother was furious and threw the moon essence basin offered by Chang'e at the Toad Fairy.
The lower realm was punished as a toad, and the moon essence basin turned into a golden light and invaded the toad's body. The Queen Mother also regretted that she accidentally smashed the Moon Essence Basin and lost a treasure.
