Waves surging, as if engulfing the blue sky, rinse the sun, very majestic and heroic. Yang Chengzhai once said in a poem, "The sea surges up and becomes a city piled up with silver; the Qiantang River is horizontal, and the tide gives ties an alabaster girdle."

Suddenly the yellow smoke around, the characters can not be seen a little, the sound of the water blasting vibration, like the collapse of the mountains in general. After a while the smoke dissipated, the water is calm, can not see any big ship, only the maneuver as enemy warships warships were burned by the fire, with the water waves and sank to the bottom of the sea.

There were hundreds of good swimmers in the Zhejiang area, each with their hair draped and covered in tattoos, holding ten long, large colorful flags. Everyone bravely against the current waves and up in the very high waves, hidden and over the body, posture changes, however, the end of the flag a little bit is not wet by the water, in order to boast their own talent. And the rich and wealthy, honorable officials, competing for the first reward silver colored silk. Between the north and south of the river bank up and down more than ten miles, full of spectators wearing gorgeous hand ornaments and clothes, too many carriages and horses, the road for the blockage. The prices of food and drink sold were twice as high as usual. The tents rented by tourists to watch the event were so crowded that there was no room for even one seat.

Background Knowledge

Zhou Mi's Tide Watching of the Southern Song Dynasty describes the tides of the Qianjiang River in this way: "The tides of Zhejiang Province are a great sight to see in the world. Since the first look to the eighteenth day for the most abundant. Fang its far out of the sea door, only as silver line, both progressive, is the jade city snow ridge, the sky comes, loud as thunder, shocking shooting, swallowing the sky Wozhi, the potential for extreme heroism." Watch the tide of the Qianjiang River, the north and south banks are available. The south bank of the tide watching area are within the sand, especially in the Qinglong Mountain, Ochre Mountain area called the best. Every year in August from mid-autumn to the 19th these days, dozens of miles away from the red men and women, to carry wine and food, rushed to the riverside to enjoy this masterpiece of nature. When the tide comes in the afternoon of the 18th, dozens of kilometers of long embankment, but also a sea of people. According to historical records, the Southern Song Dynasty in this festival event, there is a specially trained sailors, for the visitors to do "tide" show, the Song Dynasty poet Pan Lang said: "tide children to when the tide is standing, hand red flag flag is not wet", refers to this situation. Zhou Mi in the "tide" in this made a more specific and vivid description: "good swimmers hundreds, all hair tattoos, holding ten large colorful flags, competing to be the first to drum up courage, back to meet and up, out of the whale wave in the ten thousand Ren, Teng body hundred changes, and the flag tail slightly not wet, to boast of this, and the rich people and noble eunuchs competing to reward the silver things." Now it seems that this kind of tide-rigging skill is incredible. Maybe their tide place are chosen in the Hangzhou neighborhood, so that the small court of the Southern Song dynasty of dignitaries to appreciate, and there is already the tail of the tide. If the tide section, the tide per square meter has more than seven tons of impact force, thousands of kilograms of berm boulders are often rolled away, it can be said that "the sky turbid waves row air to come, overturning the mountain for the destruction", in order to test the tide is unbearable.
