"Let's go. Now we have seen the beauty of Asia's tallest waterfall." After a while, Zhang Yang suggested to her.

"Look for a while longer." Liu Yifei said to look for a while longer, but what she was looking at was not the scenery, but the people.

A group of people are taking photos wearing red and blue Miao costumes.

"When we get to Xijiang Qianhu Miao Village, I will take pictures for you myself. We will also go to Doupotang and Tianxing Bridge today." Zhang Yang walked back, holding Liu Yifei's arm.

When Liu Yifei heard that Zhang Yang wanted to take a photo of her personally, she smiled with satisfaction.

The two walked back to the entrance of the Big Waterfall Scenic Area, took a bus back, and first went to the Tianxing Bridge Scenic Area.

In the Huangguoshu Scenic Area, the most famous thing is the big waterfall. In the Tianxingqiao Scenic Area, there is only the Yinlianzhuitan Waterfall in the Tianxing Cave. The direction of the water flow is very peculiar.

As for Doupotang, it is unremarkable. The only thing worth mentioning is that the 86 version of "Journey to the West" was filmed here.

It was already past five in the afternoon when they finished touring the Huangguoshu Scenic Area, and it was almost eight in the evening when they returned to the Zhucheng Hilton Hotel.

After returning to the hotel, they had dinner and went to bed early, because the Libo Xiaoqikong Scenic Area, where they were going to visit tomorrow, was more than three hours' drive from Zhucheng.

The next morning at around seven o'clock, the group set out from the hotel to the Xiaoqikong Scenic Area.

Xiaoqikong Scenic Area is located in the mountains in the south of Libo County, Guizhou Province, at the junction of Guizhou and Guangxi. It is a long and narrow valley.

It integrates various natural landscapes such as mountains, water caves, forests, waterfalls, rocks and lakes. It is a wonder in the karst landform and is known as the super bonsai.

After more than three hours' drive, they finally arrived at Xiaoqikong Town.

Yes, this is another small town that exists because of the scenic spot. No wonder many places want to develop the tertiary industry. If it is well developed, it will have great power and will indeed benefit the local people.

When they arrived at the parking lot outside the scenic area, Zhang Yang looked at the time and it was almost eleven o'clock.

"Would you like to eat less?"

Liu Yifei nodded. After sitting in the car for more than three hours, they felt a little hungry while chatting all the way. Could it be that chatting was so effective in burning calories?
Several people ran straight from the scenic area parking lot to a nearby restaurant.

I would like to give a special mention to Xiaoqikong Scenic Area. Their parking lot is free, which is rare! This is a national AAAAA-level scenic spot.

The area near the parking lot is the busiest place in town because it is close to the tourist center.

They looked at the largest restaurants from a distance.

"Let's go to this one." Liu Yifei suggested, pointing to a restaurant that sold Sichuan, Hunan and Cantonese cuisine.

"They have all kinds of flavors, but I guess none of them are very good." Zhang Yang was particularly pessimistic about this restaurant because it was too mixed.

"Just eat something." Liu Yifei said and pulled Zhang Yang inside.

The fat proprietress saw that there were only six of them and wanted them to sit in the hall.

The assistant went upstairs to have some conversation, and the proprietress took them to the private room on the second floor.

After entering the private room, Liu Yifei asked, "What special dishes do you have?"

"Graphite tofu fish in sour soup, dry pot shrimp and sour beef, stewed sour meat."

"Why are they all sour?" Liu Yifei looked at the proprietress curiously. She was not pregnant and didn't like sour food that much.

"This is a specialty of our Buyi ethnic group, sour water with wild cherry tomatoes..." The proprietress introduced a lot of things, and Zhang Yang was enlightened by listening to her.

"Everyone, get a large portion, and pair it with five or six other dishes."

The three special dishes she mentioned cost 138 for a small portion, 168 for a medium portion, and 198 for a large portion.

When the proprietress saw that Zhang Yang ordered so much, she left satisfied.

Zhang Yang and Liu Yifei also took off their disguises and chatted casually.

After a while, the proprietress came in again with a bucket.

“Here are your fish.”

"You kill and cook them right after you kill them?" Zhang Yang glanced into the bucket.

"Correct."

"What kind of fish is this?"

"Seven-hole fish, also known as hole fish. It's a bit like Wujiang fish." The proprietress explained further, probably because it's the off-season and there are no other customers in the store, otherwise her service wouldn't have been so good.

Liu Yifei also leaned over to take a look: "It looks a bit like a catfish, especially its whiskers."

"We call it Wujiang fish here, but it grows in caves, so we usually call it cave fish."

The proprietress started to cook the dishes after she finished explaining, and by the time everyone had finished eating it was almost noon.

They entered the scenic area from the west gate of Xiaoqikong. The ticket for this scenic area is cheaper than that for Huangguoshu Scenic Area, 170 yuan per person, including 120 yuan for the ticket, 40 yuan for the sightseeing bus and 10 yuan for insurance.

Maybe because the scenic area is large, this ticket is valid for seven days and can be used to enter and exit the scenic area repeatedly. Of course, the 40-yuan sightseeing bus is only valid for two days.

Xiaoqikong is a canyon that is about 20 kilometers long. There are many scenic spots along the way. It is downhill when you enter from the west gate.

After they swiped their ID cards to enter, they booked a car as usual.

After driving for only about ten minutes, we arrived at the first attraction, Wolongtan.

When they got off the bus and walked towards the scenic spot, Liu Yifei held up the introduction sheet of the scenic spot and said to Zhang Yang: "Look, there are so many places, and they are so big, you can't visit them all in one day."

"We'll stay in town tonight and continue playing tomorrow."

Liu Yifei nodded, and they were attracted by the water here after walking a few steps.

The crystal clear water, in turquoise and sapphire blue, is as stunning as a gem.

There are also beautiful women in ancient costumes taking photos by the lake.

"I feel the water here is comparable to Jiuzhaigou." Zhang Yang sighed as he walked. "Xiaoqikong, people in the world call it "Little Jiuzhaigou"..." Liu Yifei explained to Zhang Yang in a knowledgeable manner.

It is said that Guizhou Province has many beautiful mountains and rivers. Zhang Yang saw it with his own eyes and knew that this was true.

Wolongtan is surrounded by towering mountains, with strange rocks and ancient trees standing beside the pond, forming a magnificent and beautiful green landscape painting. Viewed from the air, it looks like a piece of emerald hidden in a deep valley.

They walked forward for a while and came to Wolong Valley, where they could go rafting.

But the rafts were relatively small and could only hold four people at most. They rented two boats and started to cruise the river.
Wolong River is an ecological self-service rafting corridor, starting from Wolongtan and winding to the upper area of ​​Yuanyang Lake, with a total length of 3.5 kilometers.

On both sides of Wolong Valley, there are lush and beautiful karst primitive vegetation, the river is winding and deep, the river water is clear and blue, and the sunlight shines through and reflects stars.
Sit on a raft and drift downstream, enjoying the beautiful scenery along the way, floating in the Wolong Valley, with green mountains and clear water, picturesque spring scenery, and drizzling rain, the artistic conception is directly full, making people linger.

After passing Wolongtan and Yuanyang Lake, we arrived at Cuigu Wetland.

This place is not far from Cui Valley Waterfall. Not many people come here, and most people who get off the bus here go straight to the waterfall.

"Let's just walk around here." Zhang Yang pointed at the wetland. He took a quick look and found that there was almost no one in the wetland at the moment.

Liu Yifei nodded. The whole wetland was very quiet, surrounded by green mountains in the distance, rippling water nearby, and surrounded by vegetation. A wooden plank road passed through the meadow.

The scenery was so beautiful that Zhang Yang calmed down instantly. He looked at the calm water, breathed in the scent of the mountains and forests, and enjoyed the tranquility of nature.

At this moment, he seemed to understand the feeling of Sun Liancheng, who had the universe in his heart. The title of movie emperor was nothing but a passing cloud.

"It's a pity that they don't sell it here, otherwise I would buy it and keep it for the two of us to play with."

Liu Yifei's calm mood disappeared immediately after listening to Zhang Yang's wild ideas. She pulled Zhang Yang towards Cui Valley Waterfall.

"Wow." Liu Yifei exclaimed as soon as she reached the waterfall.

She pulled Zhang Yang's arm and pointed at the waterfall and said excitedly: "Look at this water, it flows directly down from the mountain, wow, spectacular.

It’s so beautiful, wow.”

Cui Valley Waterfall is located in the upper reaches of Xiangshui River in the scenic area. It is a closed depression among peaks and is named after the lush mountains. The waterfall is formed by falling from steep rocks, presenting a fan shape that is small at the top and large at the bottom.

It is the waterfall with the largest drop in the scenic area. From a distance, it looks like a white jade belt hanging between the mountains.

Looking closely, the waterfall cascades down, with waves splashing, like a group of dragons descending the mountain, majestic and magnificent.

Zhang Yang laughed. When Liu Yifei got here, she exclaimed "Wow" three times. It seemed that she liked this place very much.

"You're right, it's a pity it's not for sale here, otherwise we could buy it." Liu Yifei said regretfully.

Just now, when Zhang Yang saw the wetland and wanted to buy it, she didn’t think much of it, but when she saw the waterfall, she wanted to buy it herself.

Several elderly people around heard Liu Yifei's words and looked at her with strange eyes. Where did this little girl come from? She is so arrogant.

It took Zhang Yang and Liu Yifei two days to visit the Xiaoqikong Scenic Area. Even though it was the off-season, there were a lot of people taking pictures at the last Xiaoqikong Bridge.

Coming out of the Xiaoqikong Scenic Area on the afternoon of the 15th, Zhang Yang stretched. Although he was a little tired after visiting the area for the past two days, he felt much more relaxed.

"Let's go back to Zhucheng. I'll take you to the Miao village to take pictures tomorrow."

"We will stay one more night today. Tomorrow we will go to the Big Seven-hole Scenic Area. Many people have visited the Small Seven-hole Scenic Area and do not visit the Big Seven-hole Scenic Area. It is a good opportunity for us to visit there."

After two days of fun, Liu Yifei felt everything else was fine except taking photos. She planned to take some good photos at the Daqikong Scenic Area, where there were few people and she could completely take off her disguise.

In fact, Xiaoqikong Scenic Area and Daqikong Scenic Area are the same scenic area, but the popularity of the two places is incomparable.

"Okay." Zhang Yang agreed straightforwardly.

The next morning, when they arrived at the Daqikong Scenic Area, it was still raining.

They played in the rain for three or four days.

As soon as they entered the scenic area, Liu Yifei pointed to the mountains in the distance and said, "Look at that mountain, it's covered in clouds and mist, like a fairyland."

"Indeed, if you want to shoot a fairy tale drama in the future, you can come here and you don't need to do special effects."

Although the Daqikong Scenic Area is named Daqikong, it is much smaller than Xiaoqikong.

You can walk into the scenic area or take a cruise.

"Let's take a boat and then walk back." Liu Yifei suggested to Zhang Yang.

Zhang Yang nodded. They didn't need to charter a boat. The bamboo raft cruise ship in the scenic area could only accommodate eight people. Now it was the off-season, so the six of them could just go on the boat directly.

After getting on the boat, I put on the bright red life jackets at the boat driver's reminder, and the boat slowly headed towards the canyon.

Liu Yifei looked at the ripples on the lake and said to Zhang Yang, "It's really different to ride a boat on a rainy day."

“This is the feeling of floating on a small bamboo raft in the middle of the river and passing by towering green mountains on both sides.”

The Daqikong Scenic Area is located next to the east gate of the Xiaoqikong Scenic Area. It is dominated by primitive forests, strange peaks and caves, canyon streams, and underground lakes.
The scenery is steep and magical, with majestic momentum, high mountains and deep valleys, a waterfall in the cave, a lake under the waterfall, and a sky bridge over the lake.

There is also a clear emerald green river in the canyon. Being in it is like walking into a pure paradise.

After the bamboo raft docked, the first stop was Horror Gorge.

The Horror Gorge is about one kilometer long and is a box-shaped canyon.

Zhang Yang and his group quietly looked at the surrounding scenery. In front of them was a couple. The man pointed at the scenery not far away and asked his girlfriend, "Do you know why this place is called Horror Gorge?"

The woman shook her head cooperatively, and the man explained confidently, "It is said that if tourists shout loudly when they come here, a lot of rocks will fall from the mountain. It is very scary, so it is named Horror Gorge."

"So magical?"

"Yes, in the past, people here believed that the rocks fell because they disturbed the mountain god, who was angry.

But in fact, the rocks on the mountain become loose after weathering, and there are many macaques in the mountain. When someone shouts, the macaques will be frightened and run away, and they will bring some stones down with them. "
