After arriving at Shuangtan, go around the pool to experience the strange atmosphere, and then find a farmer to discuss accommodation by the pool. Tourism in the village is a natural state, and there are no hotels and restaurants. The villagers are very simple. Generally, a person can get dinner and accommodation from 30 yuan to 50 yuan. Of course, you can eat whatever his family eats. Because of you, they will add one or two good dishes. They live in the bed left by their children when they go out to work, and they will give you clean sheets and bedding. But you should be prepared to go to the toilet. In the countryside, you know this. At night, you must sit quietly by the double pool, count the stars and look at the moon. Perhaps unconsciously, the green light like fireflies will appear in the pool. Don't panic, let alone throw stones and mud into the water. Locals can do it, and I believe you can do it, too. Hehe, after the excitement, look carefully. Maybe it's fireflies. However, what does it matter if you can't see the monster?

The historical evolution of Longkou Town, the origin of its name is 1. Historical evolution: Longkou has a long history. During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, Longkou was the land of Chu Yunmeng and belonged to Nanjun. From the Han Dynasty to the Southern Dynasties, the first year of Liang Dynasty (AD 503) was located in Zhouling County, and the next year was located in Mianyang County. Chonggande three years (AD 965), transferred to Yushan County; Chongxi Liu Chong (AD 1073) is bounded by Guandi and Jiayu counties in the south and Biyang county in the north; Later, until June 195 1, the State Council approved the addition of Honghu County, and Longkou Town was included in Honghu. 2. Origin of the name: Longkou was called Liankou in ancient times, but there was no annotation by Li Dao in the Northern Wei Dynasty, and it was recorded in the Annotation of Water Mirror, which has been more than 1450 years.

Accordingly, Longkou was renamed for more than 400 years. 5.

(Pictures to be supplemented) VI. Celebrity in Longkou Town 1, Liu Xinyuan (1848- 19 17), epigraphist, calligrapher, politician, born in Longkou Town, honghu city, whose name is Yafu, and whose name is You Dan and Kui. He used to be editor of imperial academy and assistant editor of National History Museum. He worked with invigilators, Jiangxi Road, Guangdong Road, Jiangnan Road, and Gyeonggi Road to test the imperial history, and was the deputy examiner of Henan Province. He used to be the magistrate of Kuizhou and Chengdu, and later went to Guangxi as a provincial judge and minister, and was named Dr. Rong Lu. In the late Qing Dynasty, Liu Xinyuan refused to supervise the peasant uprising in Guangxi and was dismissed by the court. On the eve of the Revolution of 1911, he led the Hubei Railway Protection Movement and served as the president of Hubei Railway Association. After the success of Wuchang's first declaration, he served as the Speaker of Hubei Provisional Parliament and the first Governor of Hubei Province. When his career was bumpy, Liu Xinyuan concentrated his interests and hobbies on epigraphy, including ancient prose examination, ancient music, six books of three generations, notes on generals' mirrors, various classes, books on the sea, Sun Tzu's certificate, notes on Chu Ci, Guangxi military affairs, and literary notes. At that time, people called his book "a masterpiece of ancient Chinese" and it was a "unique study of ancient Chinese characters for thousands of years". Japan reprinted it. The libraries of Princeton University, Chicago University and Britain, France and Japan all have collections, which are used by sinologists at home and abroad as reference books for studying ancient Chinese characters. When Guo Moruo had an argument with his literary friends about learning, he encountered a problem that was difficult to draw a conclusion, and simply said, "Publishing House should start with Liu Xinyuan." Lu Xun also asked people to buy Liu Xinyuan's works many times. Many modern and contemporary books such as Guo Moruo, Wang Guowei, Zhang Taiyan, Huang Kan and Gu Jiegang have borrowed from them. Through the study of ancient Chinese characters, Liu Xinyuan knows all kinds of calligraphy, such as brush, seal, official script, regular script, running script and cursive script, and he can also write by hand. And stand out from it and create a unique font, which was very popular at that time. Liu Xinyuan's calligraphy is rated as "elegant and elegant, not bold, vertical but not rough" in the book Calligraphy Style in Qing Dynasty. Wherever he went, he was asked to write an inscription. Today, many scenic spots of mountains and rivers still preserve his Mo Bao in the form of stone carvings. Among them, the most famous are the giant "Kuimen" on the cliff of Kuimen in the Three Gorges and the "Qutang" carved in Qutang Gorge, the seal carving of Chengdu Sima Bridge, the official script "Li Dui" stone carving of Fulongguan in Dujiangyan, the seal script "Shi Biao" stone carving of Wuhou Temple and the wind tunnel of Diecai Mountain in Guilin. Liu Xinyuan was born in "Daocuo Jikou". Liu Xinyuan was born in a strange village in Tengyunzhou, Longkou Town. At first, the village faced south and was unnamed. During the Yongzheng period, Liu Guanshan, a scholar, built a house sideways at the western end of the village, making the village a crutch with a terrain like a ruler used by Master Lu Ban. The local residents' house is called Siwa Building, with a patio in the middle, a gatehouse in front, wings on both sides, and a main room at the back. The main room is higher than the gatehouse, and the wing is shaped like a dustpan, with its mouth facing outwards, which means taking wealth home. However, Liu Guanshan reversed the high and low order of the house and built an inverted dustpan shape, which is called "inverted dustpan mouth". Later, Liu Guanshan became a county magistrate. He was often assassinated because he spoke for the people. His hometown people have sent money and rice to save him many times. According to this, someone wrote a ballad: "You turn into a ruler, and I call it a ruler monster. Take a shovel and open it inward. Being an official doesn't make a fortune, but you have to eat inside and choose outside! " Since then, the name of this village with a strange ruler has spread. Liu Guanshan is Liu Xinyuan's great grandfather. Xinyuan's father, Mr Feng Dan, is a teenager, and his mother's name is Jin Lingzhi. In the 28th year of Daoguang, Mr. Feng Dan's home was destroyed by the flood, and the whole family lived in an "inverted dustpan". On the morning of the seventh day of August in the solar calendar, Liu Xinyuan was born in the "inverted dustpan mouth". Liu Xinyuan was born with dark skin, and Mr. Feng Dan nicknamed him "Three Sunspots". The villagers are half-tilling and half-fishing, and like to tell the story of the fish otter. They described the three spots as the reincarnation of snakehead essence, creating the story of snakehead essence. One of them said, "It is said that Bao Gong of the Song Dynasty slept in an iron coffin by mistake because he was angry with his son. He tried his best not to go out. From then on, there is no official in this world. Corrupt officials flooded Bao's cemetery with mud and muddy water. Bao Gong was in a hurry and turned into a snakehead. Snakehead has sharp teeth and a hard skull. He bit off the copper rivet, arched the iron coffin, and rode in the clouds to find the strange ruler. Seeing that' Daojikou' is a good place to be an official, I took the opportunity to give birth to a child. " This story expresses the villagers' desire for honesty and integrity. Later, Liu Xinyuan lived up to his fellow villagers and really became an honest official. Regarding the birth of Liu Xinyuan, Li Jing is down-to-earth, and there is another saying that there is a Tuanyuzhou in Longkou Town and a village called Quchiguai in the continent. This ruler has water on one side and big reeds on three sides. Many people say that this is a land of feng shui. Early this morning, in the cottage of farmer Liu Zhengjun in the east of the village, the midwife was delivering the baby for Zheng Jun's wife, but an hour passed and the baby was not born yet. Another hour passed, but nothing happened. I only heard the cries of pregnant women in pain. The whole family are worried and don't know what to do. At this time? Much thunder and little rain, few pedestrians. I only heard a loud noise. A bright red light rushed up from the water towel and turned around the hut twice. Then it turned into a bright red carp and got into the hut. It jumped on the pregnant woman and disappeared. Half an hour later, the mother gave birth to a boy, and the whole family loved him very much. The midwife looked around with Yael in her arms and suddenly said loudly, "This Yael has a black beard three inches long in both ears. I am afraid that the immortal carp is reborn! " Yale's father, Liu Zhengjun, agrees that the midwife is right. Because Yael ranked third, he immediately named Yael "Three Blacks". Later, the scientific name was changed to Liu Xinyuan. Liu Guanshan, known as a gifted scholar in Longjiang, went out to be an official, and his descendants donated Daojikou's house to the village. The villagers felt that "eating inside and picking outside" was a bit unsightly, so they thought, "Since this house is not allocated inside, why not use it to run a school and let the children go out from here?" A school was set up at the mouth of the dustpan. Sure enough, Einstein's favorite pupil, Liu Shaoguang, Liu Hu, the king of children's travel in China, Liu Qiong, a famous railway bridge expert, Liu Shaomao, a children's educator, and many other celebrities at home and abroad all came out from here. So far, more than 30 people have senior titles at home and abroad, and Qu Zhi Monster has become a famous village in Jianghan. At that time, Liu Xinyuan's home was next to the dustpan room. After learning to walk, he always liked to play in front of the dustpan. His cousin, Mr. Xiaoyou, teaches there. One day, Xinyuan cocked his head and looked at the school: Teacher Xiaoyou was sitting seriously, and a student was standing in front of Teacher Xiaoyou's desk, facing the wall and reciting Cut Tan. When the student recited the word "dry river", it might be that the teacher was distracted during the lecture and didn't remember the ancient sound of the word "dry river". At this time, he had to recite it word for word, revealing the stuffing. I saw that the student shook his head. "Where is the river and where is the river?" From time to time, he turned his head to peek at Mr. Xiaoyou, trying to pass by when Mr. Xiaoyou was not paying attention. Mr. Xiaoyou kept his eyes on the student. Liu Xinyuan saw his eyes and laughed to herself. When the students recited "The River of Home" again, Xinyuan couldn't help shouting: "Shore!" This call doesn't matter. Suddenly, the whole room went dumb and all four seats were absorbed. Teacher Xiaoyou brought Xinyuan into the school and asked him to recite ancient poems in front of the students. Xinyuan was only two and a half years old, but she recited 13 songs in succession. Since then, people have consistently said that Xinyuan is a gifted scholar and called him "talented". /kloc-at the age of 0/2, he took the county exam and won the first place in the initial exam. Because his hometown from Laolongkou to Longtan Mountain in Jiayu County was called Longjiang in ancient times, people called him "Longjiang gifted scholar". At home, Liu Xinyuan lost his father when he was a child. His father, Mr. Feng Dan, is an honest and frank person. After giving up his wealth, he left his family with four minor children, Jin Lingzhi, his mother.
