An ancient house was found on a cliff in Guizhou. It's so spectacular.

In the deep mountains of Wuchuan, I found a very lonely house. It's so lonely that it's almost forgotten by the world. This house is proudly located on a lonely peak. There are dangerous cliffs all over the place. It's breathtaking. There is no one here. It's like being separated from the world. I knew that this was originally a Buddhist temple. What is unexpected is that there is still an 80-year-old old man here. I have been living here for nearly 30 years. It is widely accepted that this ancient temple has a long history. Its history is recorded. It can be traced back to the time of Emperor Taizu Zhu Yuanzhuang. However, he did not know the specific era. So what kind of magical story is behind this building? Let's follow our camera to find out. Hello, everyone. I'm Xiao Xue. Today, we came to the deep mountains of Wuchuan, Guizhou. This place is called Niantai Mountain. That house is actually a temple. This is our third time here. It's not the same as before. We are walking on a different path today. We also found an old man today. This old man specializes in guarding this temple. His surname is Yu. Hello, grandpa. How many years have you been guarding this temple? It's been 96 years. 96 years? Yes. This year is the 25th year. It's been almost 23 years. How old are you this year? I'm 83 years old. 83 years old. You came to guard this temple when you were young. I came to see this temple when I was in my fifties. I came to visit this temple when I was in my fifties. It's sunny today. I'm going to stay here at night. My father didn't have a house. My mother didn't have a house. I built this house. I was young at that time. I didn't have money to go to work. I didn't have electricity. I couldn't walk. I stayed here for a night. I was kind. I built this house. I have a lot of money. Although this temple is remote, There are many people who come and go. How long have we been here? Two hours. How's your health? Don't worry about me. My health is not good. I have a lot of food. It's cold at night. It's a long way to go. But if you want to go, You have to go through the valley. It's like climbing two mountains. It's a long way to go. Didn't we come here before? You came from the other side. You didn't go this way. If you want to go, you have to go this way. I was wondering at that time. Why is the road so clean and famous in such a remote place? It's easy for you to walk. No, it's hard for us. Today, this grandpa will take us to the temple. Now let's follow his footsteps. I'm sweeping the road. You're sweeping the road. I'm sweeping the road. Grandpa said that he often swept these roads. The slope of this road is very steep. It's almost vertical. Although he is over 80 years old, It's easy for him to walk on this road. I'm going to plant grass. You're going to plant grass. I'm going to plant grass. Grandpa said that spring is coming. The grass is going to grow again. Where is this? This is a bridge. Is there a bridge on this? This is a canal. This tombstone has been here for a long time. It's been here for many years. I can't see it clearly. Many tombstones have melted. Melted? I can't see it clearly. Wow, this road. I can't breathe when I walk on this road. I'm afraid I'm going to roll down from here. If I roll down from here, I have to go to Ershanli and come back for four or five days. Grandpa said that when you were young, How long did it take to walk from here to here? It took me an hour to walk from here to here. Wow, you're amazing. It took me an hour to walk from here to here. Grandpa said that when he was young, He could walk from here to Ershanli in an hour and a half. He is old now. It took him an hour or two to walk from here to Ershanli. Now I walk about a kilometer to Ershanli. Yes. I walk about three kilometers to Ershanli. OK. Walk about three kilometers to Ershanli. For a hundred miles. Did you work in the construction site before? We did. We worked at the temple. I was a chef. Then I came back here. You are so amazing. I was young and I used to work in the temple. I worked in the temple, dug a hole and put the stone on the village. If I were you, I wouldn't be able to do it. Look, you can see the temple from here. Is there any willow tree here? The willow tree doesn't dare to go to the temple. It doesn't dare to go to the temple? It doesn't dare to go to the temple. It can only move around. It can only move around? It's so big that it can't move around. It's like a bird's nest. That's why I want to go. I only go when the sun goes down. I don't go when it's cold. Do you live in the temple during the winter? Because there is no electricity there, it is very cold at night. You all know that Guizhou is in winter. Look at this road, it's really steep. I feel steeper than the road we went before. This road is relatively large. This road is very steep. It's steeper than the road we went before. Grandpa said this road is not steep, but I think it's very steep. If you slip and fall, the consequences will be unimaginable. Look at the mountain on this road, it's like a knife cut, it's amazing. This road is made of wood. Is this road made of wood? Yes. Is this road in good condition? Yes, this road is in good condition. Grandpa said that there are many roads that can be maintained until now because of his maintenance. This road was built with steel beams. I can hear a loud stream here. There should be a waterfall down here. Look at this road, it's really steep. Because the slope is too steep, it can't be maintained. It can only be maintained in a Z shape to reduce the risk factor. Grandpa dug it out one by one. It's like a bag. Yes, it's like a bag. It's a little scary. I think people in the past should have some martial arts. Grandpa said that there was no such road here before. It's a vertical slope and you have to climb up. I'm so scared to walk now, let alone no road. If there is no road, I dare not come at all. Wow, look, we're finally at the bottom of the valley. There is a very beautiful waterfall here. Because it's not the rainy season now, the water volume of this waterfall is relatively small. If it rains, the water source will be very large. This waterfall will also be very beautiful. I think the biggest attraction of this place is the beautiful scenery. Let's take a look at the pond above. The quality of the water is very good. Look, it's crystal clear. The environment in this canyon is very primitive and ecological. There is no trace of human destruction at all. This place is really healing. Grandpa said that there is a very beautiful waterfall in this stream. Now let's go down from here. I just told Grandpa to let Grandpa carry the bag for me. But he kept saying that he could do it. But he was still a little tired down there. Then I said to carry the bag for him, but he didn't refuse. It's still a little slippery. Now we're going up. The water is very clear here. There used to be a bridge here. Grandpa said that there used to be a bridge here. Look, there are stones on both sides. Did this bridge collapse because of the water? This bridge must have collapsed because of the water. Grandpa said that there was still this bridge 80 years ago. But it was washed away by the water. He said that there used to be a house on the bridge and a pavilion. It's hard to get into this house, this bridge and this pavilion. I see this one is a little thinner. It's about 2.5 to 3 kg. I'm thinner than you. You're thinner than me? Yes, I'm thinner than you. I'm not as thin as you. Now we're going up the slope. If we keep going up, we'll get to the temple. Grandpa, how long do you think you can stay at this temple? I don't know. If someone takes over, I won't close it. Oh, if someone takes over, you won't close it. I feel like this road is too hard to walk. It's shaking up and down. Grandpa also said that this road is much easier than the road we used to walk. I feel like this road, whether it's the length or the slope, is much harder than that side. I admire this grandpa so much. He walks this road every day. My nephew, Shi Yijing, I was burning incense at the temple. He was at Huangbao. We were there. The nuns were there, too. They are my family. I was at the temple. I was burning incense at the temple. It took me 10 minutes. 10 minutes? That's amazing. How old is he? He is 45 years old. It's good to be young. Grandpa said he had a grandson. It took him 10 minutes to walk from the temple to the temple. That's amazing. I thought I was almost there when I saw this house. I didn't expect to walk halfway here. I'm so happy. There is a small temple here. Marshal Ma is worshipped in it. Marshal Ma is said to be specialized in eliminating human plague. Let's take a look. There is a pair of silver lotus outside. The spirit of the king is gone. Marshal Ma is here. There is a Buddha statue above. Let's go up. The road is flat now. The slope is not as steep as it was. It's a little slippery here. Grandpa said that when the weather gets warmer, he will plant some vegetables on it and won't go home. We started at 12 o'clock today. It's 1.30 now. Grandpa said that if he was alone, he would take an hour or two. Maybe it's different with us today. This is a bee raised by grandpa. It was stolen. It's gone now. Grandpa said that when he was not here, the honey in it was stolen. I think these people are so wicked. Is it a little money? Let's go. Look. We are finally here. There are a few tombs above. That mountain is Yugong Mountain. Yugong Mountain? It's from Guizhou, Sichuan. This mountain is the Wumei Mountain in Sichuan. The Wumei Mountain in Sichuan? Yes. The Yugong Mountain in Sichuan is here. This is the place where the local people live. This is Yang Xiulu. Yang Xiulu? Is he a Chinese? No, he is not. He went to the mountains to plant some honey. He was born here. So this mountain is his? The three mountains are his. He is the god of the three mountains. He is the god of the three mountains? He is the god of the three mountains. Where is he now? He is crazy. But I don't know who he is. He was born here. Is he a god? He is a god. He was born here. He bought this place. Grandpa said that these tombs were built by the monks of the past. Yes, they were built by the monks of the past. There are two tombs here that have been destroyed. Yes, they were destroyed. I think that the Cui family must have taken a lot of precious things. Yes, they took a lot of precious things. Most of the people here are poor. They don't have any money. There is a county cultural property unit here. There are three or four tombs in a row. If you look at the remains of this house, you can see that it used to be relatively large. It must have been a big epidemic here. This is a big air duct. The air duct was built in 1991. Can you hear the sound? It's Tianjinbao. Tianjinbao means cloud. This is Sanyunbao. Sanyunbao. There is a yard over there. Did you build this house? I built this house. Did you build this house? Yes. Oh. I built this house. Oh. I built this house. Oh. These houses were already destroyed. Then my grandfather came here and built this wooden house and a temple over there. A house. He basically lives here except for winter. This room is where he lives. This is his bed. I saw it. I saw it from the tomb. This house was built after my grandfather came here. It's still very spacious in here. Look at this wall. The gap is still relatively large. I heard from my grandfather that these houses were all collapsed before he came here. After he came here, he rebuilt the collapsed materials and bricks. Look at this. It's not made of cement. It's made of mud. My grandfather was a carpenter when he was young. Look at all the daily necessities in here. These tables. There are many tables over there. The beams on the house were also built by him. There are a few gods and buddhas in the middle. There is the Jade Emperor in the middle. There is the Taishang Laojun. There is the God of Wealth. This is the Bodhisattva Guanyin. Just now, the three of them. Shakyamuni Buddha. Maitreya Buddha. There is the God of Mercy. God of Mercy. Look at these statues and Buddha statues. These materials are carved with a whole piece of wood. Look, it's already cracked here. It must have been cracked because of the lack of water. There are three more statues here. This is the Bodhisattva Guanyin. Which one is this? Let me see. This is the God of Mercy. This is the God of Wealth. Oh, the God of Mercy and the God of Wealth. This is the God of Mercy. Oh, this is the God of Mercy. This is the God of Wealth. Oh. Next to this is the grandfather's living area. This is where he cooks. Look. There are a lot of daily necessities here. There are pots, bowls, and cabinets. This is a big bucket. Where does the water come from? It comes from the river. It comes from the river? Wow. The water comes from the river. This is a heating table. But this is for burning firewood. This is not only for heating, but also for cooking. There is a window here. This window is empty. There is no window. There is no glass. It should be cold here in winter. It's cold here in winter. It's cool here in spring. Oh. It's cool in summer. Yeah. In winter, the wind blows everywhere. It's cold. The air here is polluted. Oh. What is this stone temple? I heard that there was a man who taught Taoism. Taoist? The man who taught Taoism was Chongxin Shi. Chongxin Shi? He was the first emperor of Fubei. Chongxin Shi was the first emperor of Fubei. Oh. There was a temple before the death of the first emperor. Yeah. Do you know how many years it was? I don't know. I saw him in the back. He said that he was a lover of the first emperor. A lover of the first emperor. He was a lover of the first emperor. He was sitting there. I was sitting there. I saw a man who was laughing. A man who was laughing? Can you show me? Sure. If we calculate from the Ming Dynasty, it is amazing. It is a tomb of the Qin Dynasty. If we calculate from the Qin Dynasty, you can see how many years it has been. It's really amazing. The historical background is very heavy. The Tushou Wuchuan. It is written here. The Ming Dynasty was the first emperor. The highest one is the Shijia Monastery in Damiao, and the lowest one is the Mirazun Monastery in Kuazhou. Oh, so the highest one is the Shijia Monastery in Damiao, and the lowest one is the Mirazun Monastery in Kuazhou. Oh, so the highest one is the Shijia Monastery in Damiao, and the lowest one is the Shijia Monastery in Kuazhou. Oh. There used to be a house here, but now there's only the foundation left Look, here it is It's all so big. Look at the comparison. It's a lot bigger than the one next to it But unfortunately, there's only one left here. Look at the ground There's a lot of broken stone piled up and the bricks are scattered all over the place and there's a cherry tree next to it This is what it looks like on top of it The most interesting thing about this place is the house up there. Look at this house. It's a very dangerous place It's built on a four-sided cliff and now we're going up and there's a lot of broken stone under this cliff Maybe it's because of the constant wind These roads have also been tilted and you can see that some of them have collapsed Look over here. There's a house on this cliff It looks like it's not going up There's a wall on this side that was supposed to be a little bit higher than this and all these stones are scattered all over the place Let's go this way and look here. There should be a small house here and here It's all gone now. Grandpa said he used to have a bow here Wow, look at this. This is a very dangerous place. There was no road here. This is all an artificial footprint Look at the bottom. There's no tree underneath. If you slip here, the consequences will be unimaginable That's going to fall right into the bottom of the valley. You have to use your hands and feet to get up here Although I have been here several times, I am still a little afraid to climb here Look, we're finally here. It's a little worse than the last time we came. A lot of it has collapsed You see, this looks like it's going to be drunk. He's out of this wall The small house on top of it is dedicated to the ancient Buddha My mother's shoes are pierced I didn't see this nail just now I was wondering why he was so heavy and I found out on the street that he had pierced my foot. Fortunately, he didn't catch my foot Look at him. He's using it. Look at him. He's not using cement And the raw stone ash You see, there are a lot of tiles and bricks for this house on the ground When we came here before, there was a roof here and a waterproof roof that has now been Look at the wood. It's rotten. It's all corroded It's still a little scary up here Let me show you the surrounding environment. Look, there are mountains all over the place Standing here, you can see the village across the street. Grandpa lives in that village. We just came down from that little house It's kind of like being on top of a cliff and looking down at the mountains. It feels like the scenery around you is close to your eyes The so-called standing high to see far you see but above can be very clear to look at a waterfall Its water is flowing down from the top of the mountain. If the water is bigger, the waterfall will be more beautiful Standing here, I suddenly thought of a poem A small building with a height of 100 feet can pick star dust I feel like this temple is the loneliest I've ever seen I'm so lonely that I'm about to be forgotten by the world I really don't recommend you come here because it's too dangerous. You can see that the house above it is already clear It's almost collapsing. Okay, that's it for today. I'll see you next time You
