The vast Qinling Mountains, stretching across China, stand tall in China, like a giant dragon, dividing the whole of China into northern and southern halves, becoming the watershed between the Yellow River and the Yangtze River.
Qinling Ao Tai Crossing. The route runs through Aoshan-Taibai Mountain, the main line of the Qinling Mountains. The straight-line distance between the two mountains is more than 40 kilometers. The actual hiking distance is more than 80 kilometers. During the entire crossing, the altitude also rises from 1740 meters in Taibai County, the starting point. It takes about 6 to 7 days to reach the Aoshan Sign Tower at 3475 meters, pass through Taibai Liang at 3523 meters, and finally reach the main peak of Taibai Mountain at 3767 meters, Baxiantai. ) + Paoma Liang (alpine meadow + rocks) 30%), the route has to climb a total of 17 mountains above 3,000 meters. It is one of the most primitive and masochistic top crossing routes in the Qinling Mountains.
The line from Aoshan to Taibai is the main ridge with the highest altitude in the Qinling Mountains. There are many kinds of animals and plants along the way, stone sea ruins are scattered all over the place, clouds and mist are shrouded all year round, the weather is ever-changing, and the weather is unpredictable. The climate in the Aotai region is more complex and changeable than that of ordinary alpine areas. There are four seasons in one day, and severe weather such as strong winds, heavy rain, hail, torrential rain, dense fog, ice and snow occurs all year round. Because it is a Quaternary glacial relic landform, the peaks are steep and rocky. The sea is vast and water is scarce during summer crossing.
Ao Tai Line is the name of travel enthusiasts and is known as the adventure of "walking on the Chinese Dragon's Backbone". With its unique natural geographical conditions, towering majesty and ever-changing climate, it has been covered with a layer of mystery by people since ancient times. Due to its high altitude, difficulty in climbing, unpredictable climate, harsh climate environment, large temperature difference between day and night, and long uninhabited area, the load-bearing load for about 6 days has caused many accidents and no safety facilities or signs on the crossing. poses a greater safety risk. This event was convened online by travel friend Xiaoqi. Travelers from all over the country voluntarily joined the group in the form of AA. In the early stage, there were more than 20 donkeys who wanted to join the group, and 6 people were confirmed before departure. I met Xiao Qi and I were together at Xinjiang Tianshan Wolf Pagoda C+V before the National Day last year, and we happened to miss Ao Tai’s trip due to something else, so there was God’s will for us to be together again, which makes more sense. The above is to meet the promise made in 2016.
D0: Team gathering
All over the country~Xi'an
As we were originally scheduled to meet at Xi'an Railway Station at noon on June 2, we chartered a bus to Tangkou Village, the starting point of the Aotai Line, after lunch. After checking many traffic routes, it was difficult for all traffic routes from Wuhan to meet the organization's requirements on the same day. I had to pack up all the equipment and luggage a week in advance and put them in the trunk of the car. I was planning to go directly to the sleeper train at Hankou Railway Station and drive directly to Xi'an Station to meet the brigade at noon as soon as I finished my business on June 1st.
When I entered the train station and sat in the waiting hall, I felt that I had a cold that day, so I quickly found a cold medicine💊 and drank a few pills, but my nose still couldn't help but flow down... After I got on the train and lay down, I thought about the next few days. If the cold gets worse…it’s scary to think about it! I quickly found more cold medicine and drank more of it... I slept in a daze until dawn, until I woke up from the cold... The air conditioning in the car was too low, and I didn't expect that the cold became more serious.
After eating and drinking, Xiaoqi contacted the chartered car driver to meet him. The driver was a very straightforward and handsome guy, who impressed everyone deeply. Friends who want to go to Aotai after reading 's travel notes, if you have the opportunity, you can use this driver from " Qiao Feng, the driver of the "Nan Murong Bei Qiao Feng" family series, 181 9291 9296 (his real name is Qiao Feng). It's just that the space for 6 people to put bags is a bit crowded. In order to save everyone's budget, Xiaoqi mainly chooses low-cost cars. A 9-seater car costs 300 yuan more. After nearly 4 hours of driving, we finally arrived at Tangkou Village, the base of Chinese cabbage. Of course, we had to have a sow in front of the Chinese cabbage sign.
After taking pictures at the Dabaicai sign, we went directly to Cheng Xiucai’s house in the first building in the row at the entrance of the village. Although I have been a member of Xiucai’s WeChat account for several years, this was the first time I met him in person. When I first met him, I had the illusion that he was like the great writer Mo Yan. He was amiable and spoke a few words and went straight to the theme of time travel and paid attention to details. Because a college student just disappeared on May Day, the government units were very strict in supervising and told us not to move around. Previously, we were too ostentatious when taking photos at the cabbage, which scared us into silence. We have to sneak into the mountain before dawn tomorrow morning. If we are late, someone will check and wait.
I have traveled a lot in the past and stayed in many farmhouses, but this is the first time that it is as cost-effective as Xiucai’s! Too many people know that returning customers by taking this route is a once-in-a-lifetime experience, but what Xiucai’s family does is character and reputation. One night stay plus dinner and breakfast the next day, tractor delivered to the mountain pass, all costs 50 yuan/person , this is the case year after year! It’s not that I don’t believe it, it’s that people who have been here feel a little embarrassed that it’s so cheap and have suggested charging more. The reason why travel friends reacted like this is the best evidence of the sumptuous pre-trip dinner in the picture below. Here I also met a solo traveler from Xiaogan, Hubei who had just come from another place and wanted to join Ao Travel. He was a young man born in the 1990s with an artistic style.
D1: Extremely powerful wind, dense fog, and blizzard
Tangkou Village (1750M) ~ Huoshaopo 2900 Campground ~ Bonsai Garden Campground (3250M) ~ Aoshan Daliang Navigation Frame (3475m) ~ Yaowang Temple (3361m)
At 4 o'clock in the morning, everyone got up on time, packed their luggage, and gathered in the dining hall for breakfast. I asked about the lone knight from Xiaogan, Hubei who was going to travel with us yesterday. Xiao Qi said that after checking his equipment was inappropriate, and that he had a cotton sleeping bag without a stove... After hearing this, everyone firmly supported him in not letting him join the team.
After a quick meal and drink, we boarded the scholar's special BMW mountain tractor and headed towards the trailhead at full speed! The clicking engine makes a monotonous music in the gentle morning light under the bright moonlight...
After walking a few hundred meters, you will see a warning sign at the fork in the road prohibiting Ao Tai from crossing and a public notice board from the Public Security Bureau. Don’t be frightened by it and change your route or retreat. When you come, the forbidden route is more attractive, so just go to the forbidden route! There must be wonderful torture waiting...
As soon as we enter the mountain, we are constantly climbing up. People who have not climbed with much weight for more than half a year are beginning to feel a little overwhelmed...
No matter how tired or breathless you are, when you see beautiful alpine flowers, you have to stop and take a photo. While taking pictures, you hum: "The sun is shining in the sky, the flowers are smiling at me, and the bird says: Morning, morning, morning, why are you carrying this on your back?" Explosive package?
When we arrived at Camp 2900, I suddenly discovered a rocket launcher in the grass on the roadside. I shouted to pick it up and ask them to take pictures. With this shouting, Xiao Qi and Liu Haijun, who were walking in front, lost their composure and rushed back from above to compete with each other!
When we arrived at the bonsai garden camp around noon, we were a little hungry, so we all stopped to replenish food. Xiao Ke suddenly became so well-behaved, as if he were a good obedient child in kindergarten, he knew how to sit in rows and eat fruits!
The moon waxes and wanes, and the sky is unpredictable. The weather in Aotai changed at any time, with strong winds blowing fiercely, thick fog getting thicker, and the temperature getting lower and lower... Along the way, I saw travelers who were constantly retreating. The first female traveler was led down the mountain by her porter. He said he had high reflexes. Later, another man and woman teamed up with two trekking friends said that the weather had become a bit exaggerated. They went down to the camp and waited to see what the situation would be. Soon after, another male trekking team leisurely descended. I asked him about it and he said that he had arrived at the navigation. As he was setting up a horse beam to retreat, the strong wind and thick fog were too strong. He saw a large group moving forward in front of him, but he still retreated to the camp and waited for the weather to improve before seeing . Seeing groups of people descending in groups like this, we began to discuss and consider the itinerary.
Xiaoqi, the master at the helm, combined everyone's opinions and carefully analyzed the air flow and pressure. He felt that on the dragon's spine with strong air convection on the north-south divide like Aotai, strong winds and thick fog are unavoidable. Don't scatter, and keep moving forward along the trajectory. ! go ahead! go ahead!
Just when Bo Itachi was still suggesting whether to avoid the old navigation stand, Xiaoqi said that he had to go to the navigation stand to take pictures, that was a sign! No matter how heavy the fog is, you still have to grope your way through it. That’s the top of Aoshan Mountain!
When we arrived near the Yaowang Temple, around four o'clock in the afternoon, the strong wind and thick fog became even more aggressive, turning into huge raindrops and hitting them hard. Everyone quickly took out their raincoats and put them on each other. At the same time, we looked at the trajectory and discussed whether to camp on the spot or proceed to Shuiwozi Camp, which was originally scheduled for the next day. There were still two kilometers away from Shuiwozi Camp in a straight line. In this situation, it was estimated that it would take about two hours to arrive at around 6 o'clock at the earliest. In fact, I felt that the temperature was obviously dropping sharply at that time, which was a bit exaggerated. Just when everyone was indecisive, the weather changed suddenly again, and the big raindrops turned into big ice beads in an instant, and the strong wind roared and hit us on the top of our heads! There was no time to hesitate, so he threw his backpack and used two hands to untie the tent with three hands. His whole body was shivering from the hail, and the temperature suddenly dropped to more than ten degrees below zero. It took several people to work together to hold up the tent. He quickly dragged his bag into the tent, took off his down jacket and got into his down sleeping bag...it took him about half an hour to shake off his trembling limbs.
Lying quietly, unable to sleep. The wind blew miserably and I just listened. It was snowing and I couldn't see clearly. My heart is wandering and I can’t read clearly. Lying quietly, thinking about the sudden change in the legendary situation of Ao Tai finally coming together, thinking about life, meeting about work, thinking about home... That's all, as long as you don't regret it...
D2: A rapid march of ice and fire to catch up with the large army
Yaowang Temple (3361m) ~ Maichaoling (3500m) ~ Shuiwozi Camp (3100m) ~ Airplane Liang (3481m) ~ Liang 1 Peak ~ Liang 2 Peak ~ Liang 3 Peak ~ (Xiaoshi River) 2800 Camp overnight snowstorm, roaring After hijab...the weather improved as expected, and with a smile on his face, Liu Haijun welcomed the first ray of dawn...
Because we had to travel more than two hours yesterday, we started to break camp at 4 or 5 in the morning. Sadly, the outer tent was covered in lumps of ice that were difficult to shake off.
Fortunately, the mountain is high and has a man-made peak, so the tent was friendly and direct as soon as the sun was gone. Just as everyone was preparing to dry the ice before setting off, the helmsman Xiaoqi gave the order to close up the tents and leave as soon as possible. They would dry the tents again halfway around noon. The early morning sun was not hot enough. The old driver is right, just close the account and leave!
I don’t know if he is used to walking on snowy mountains or something else, but the helmsman Xiaoqi jumped as fast as he touched the snow...
Not far away, I was pleasantly surprised to find a large pool of ice, snow and water on a stone nest. I quickly took out the life straw, cracked the ice cubes and poured it into the water, where I sucked it for more than ten minutes. Don't give up until the tendons on both sides of your temples are no longer sore. It's refreshing and sweet, and it's better than the 5 cents a glass of ice water you drank when you were a kid!
Brother Piao Jian is always intoxicated by the beautiful scenery and can't help himself... He pulls out slowly...
Look at how fast this kid is running on the snow...
I don’t know if the crazy running in front was too brave, but Xiao Qi, the helmsman, injured his thigh, and someone behind him quietly tended to the wound.
Bo Weasel brought a lot of salted duck eggs along the way. In order to have a longer shelf life, he is using snow to cool down the salted duck eggs!
I soon finished running through the alpine snowy meadows, and I looked back to take a picture of the beautiful scenery as a reminder of the violent abuse on the rocks in the next few days.
Just when everyone was struggling to climb and descend on the sea of ridges and rocks, the great Bo Itachi, who was sleeping in his backpack and running wildly with only running shoes without trekking poles or snow knee pads, made a miraculous unexpected discovery. A bag of three tomatoes was lying next to a large stone sleeping.
Bo Itachi: Don't... don't finish trying! I also tried to see if it was broken...ah, I swallowed it...
Xiao Qi ran ahead and finally found a water source for him on the cliff. He consciously picked up his old trade and became a waterman to boil water.
Since I didn't eat any cooked food the whole day after setting off yesterday until this morning, I was already very hungry and made the decision that no matter which way you go, I would cook rice, eat and drink before leaving. The cold was not cured and I was afraid that I might faint at any time. After unpacking three times, I took out the pressure cooker I learned from Yingzi McDull on my last trip to Wolf Tower, and started my first alpine clay pot rice. Sadly, the first alpine clay pot rice was a bit raw. , after another round of work, they were barely able to swallow. By the time I finished cooking, they were almost full and had enough to eat dry food. Liu Haijun and I only finished half of the pot until we were exhausted. Later, when we couldn't hold it any longer, we picked out the sausages and finished cooking. The rest of the food was a waste of food and was thrown away.
After eating and drinking enough, I finally regained my strength and was able to pull hard. I arrived at the place where my fellow mountaineers were killed at about noon. Looking at the fellow mountaineers who were buried here among the piles of stones, I was filled with emotion. Because the conditions did not allow me to be healthy, I could only guard the Qinling Mountains forever. At the top of the world, maybe this is a better destination for them. After realizing their dream, they still lie on the dragon veins of the land of China.
At noon, I took advantage of the strong sunshine to finish the tent and replenished the dry food before continuing to cut through the endless sea of rocks.
The sun shines fiercely and directly, and you begin to experience the power of ancient stone tools from the ancient times of Aoshan. I crawl, I crawl, I crawl...
I can't stand it anymore, please let me calm down for a while and think about the heavy life...
Counting one by one, Beam 1 has finally been cut... Beam 2 has arrived... Keep cutting... Look, there is Beam 3 in front of you. After cutting it, you will reach today's camp! Our brother Floating Sword is about to fall down from exhaustion. Look, let me unload the 10,000-pound bag, take a breath and then squint with my peripheral vision...
When we arrived at the top of Liang 3, we saw from a distance that the 2800 Mountain Pass camp was full of colorful tents. They must have been a commercial group that set off a day earlier than us.
After arriving at the camp, Master Bo Itachi was still quite energetic, so he took the initiative to ask everyone to hand over their water bottles and bags, and carried a lot of them to fetch water. Looking at the dozens of kilograms of pure natural mineral water he brought back, I was so moved that there are still many good people in this world!
D3: The Nine Layers of Stone Sea and the Nine Layers of Heaven’s Violence
Xiaoshihe 2800 Campground ~ Tower 1 Peak Tower 2 Peak Tower 3 Peak ~ West Plateau (3200m) ~ Dataibai Liang ~ Jiuzhong Shihai (3520m) ~ Dashihe East Plateau Campground (3174m) After breaking camp, I climbed directly and saw a pointing mountain. Lookout
Is Ao Tai beautiful? Wanliwuyun has no regrets!
Today is the third day. Thanks to the full meal and drink last night, my cold improved significantly when I woke up, and my legs felt strong! When we were descending after ascending the slope, we had caught up with some of the large commercial team.
Descending, climbing, descending, climbing... After repeated pulls, the men and horses of the big commercial team began to fall behind...
My physical strength was restored and I quickly reached Tower 1.
The fourth brother is always running around in front, and then when he sees a suitable place to lie down, he takes a few sips of wine, puts his hat on and lies down to wait for his teammates behind. I have always wondered how he could just doze off, and he kept taking advantage of every opportunity to catch up on sleep along the way. Later, I found out through exchanges that he would hide in the tent and catch up on downloaded TV series as soon as he arrived at the camp, and would catch up on the drama on the road during the day. Sleep. It’s such a vast world, with all kinds of gods and men! Walking in a cruel line that is on the verge of death, there are still people chasing the drama while walking! It’s hard not to want to raise your posture!
The road is long and far away, I will search up and down...
When we were at Tower 2, we saw from a distance the leading merchant team at the mountain pass in front of us. Bo Weasel directly cut across the stone to show that he couldn't go to the top of the tower. As he walked, the fourth brother heard someone waving and shouting in front of him, don't cut across the stone. There are cliffs all over, and you have to go to the top of the tower and follow the path, which makes the fourth brother not stop or stop while walking. Bo Itachi and I saw that there was no reason why we couldn't cut through this rocky mountain, so we just cut straight through! We took a straight line and cut across to the pass to catch up with the front group. When we saw that it was around eleven o'clock, and thinking that the rear group was almost an hour away from us, we decided to stop to dry the tents and wait for the rear group, and have lunch. At this time, Bo Itachi once again showed super physical strength and explosive character. Bao Yidie actually asked me to look after him and went back to pick up his teammates behind him. The fourth brother arrived and saw that he was still drinking and catching up on sleep without saying a word.
After replenishing lunch supplies, we were ready to head to Tower 3 again. The helmsman Xiaoqi still carefully and responsibly studied the trajectory to avoid any mistakes. This kind of line abuse is really not a joke if you take the wrong line and take a detour.
From a distance, we saw a large number of people stopping halfway up Tower 3. We guessed that it was the legendary Tower 3 water supply point. When we arrived, as expected, I asked Xiaoqi to bring the reactor out to boil water for replenishment. One or two of them said that drinking such pure and cool mountain spring water was so refreshing that it even burned the yarn! Everyone was fetching water and acting as nature's porters. No water was produced, so I just poured a big pot of water and drank it... It felt so good, but I didn't know that it was just the desire for coolness that made me want to vomit all the way along the way. , the intestines and stomach are directly damaged. well! It was hard to get over the cold, but my stomach was aggravated again. Ao Tai was destined to have a hard time!
After charging to the foot of Jiuzhong Shihai Mountain, I was stunned when I looked up! I don’t want to describe the hard work, but I can only omit the foul language again... Walking on the rotten rocks that have never been seen in millions of years, I think of Lu Xun, there is no road in the world, there are so many people walking, but there is still no fucking way The road...climbing, panting, and climbing again...Nine layers of stone sea, ninety-nine cows and twenty tigers. Finally, the strength was exhausted, and I saw the wooden sign on the top of the mountain.
Xiao Qi was delighted to discover such a difficult and dangerous place, and Durex advertised it widely. He lingered there for a long time, taking photos over and over again... When he went to Shihaiding, he insisted that I tell him about the greatness of his club. A blue flag will make the whole club excited. We are so cute! What's your club name?
You've all finished pretending to be 13, it's time for me to appear, right?
Go down to the stone sea, run to the camp, and pick up big pieces along the way! I am so greedy for those people who can only abuse those who have no beautiful scenery...
White clouds are floating in the blue sky, and I am howling under the white clouds...
Run all the way downhill to the camp at the east source of the Dashi River. It’s too early to get to the campsite today, the sun is shining before six o’clock! Just enough time to dry out the sleeping bag. Everyone set up their tents and took out their sleeping bags to dry in the sun. It was Bo Weasel who took the initiative to fetch water!
Corruption continues! Because I had gastrointestinal discomfort after drinking raw water today, I volunteered to make porridge. No matter how good the food was, it was tasteless. Bo Weasel excitedly took out a large bag of rice pudding and rice and shouted: Make my rice pudding!
When I looked back at the top of the mountain, there were still some business teams rushing towards the camp with headlamps on their heads. I couldn't help but sigh deeply: It was already after midnight... Fortunately, the weather was good. If the situation suddenly changed, Ao Tai Something big happened again... Looking at the receding skyline, I plunged into the tent and turned on the bellows...
D4: The plan evolves and is pulled out of the mountain
Dashi Hedong Plateau Camp (3174m) ~ East Plateau Ten Thousand Immortals Formation (3564m) ~ Leigong Temple (3533m) ~ Dongpaoma Liang ~ Baxiantai (3767.2m) ~ Dayehai (3590m) ~ Dawengong Temple (3495m) ~ Fangyang Temple ( 3100m)~Mingxing Temple (2950m)~Ping'an Temple (2780m)~Yangpigou Yingge Town (1000m)
Last night, the big commercial team was the one holding back. Sure enough, they arrived at the camp in the middle of the night. I could vaguely hear someone losing their temper and starting a fight... Thinking of such a large group of people taking the top domestic abuse line like Aotai, the team was so long. It’s hard to convince those organizers. The people of the brigade left camp noisily at four or five o'clock as before. Seeing that their long team was so majestic and purple, the people of the brigade finished their journey, slowly finished their breakfast and drank enough to break camp. Routinely break camp every day and go straight up again. I saw flowers blooming all over the mountains and plains, and the floating sword behind me made a romantic style among the flowers. Wearing a red outfit, she was photographed looking like a feigned girl...
After attacking the slope, we quickly entered the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation, and we were overtaken by less than half of the group. Then there are all kinds of styles showing off in the Ten Thousand Immortals Formation...
quick! Give us Forrest Gump children’s shoes too! If you can’t attract the immortal energy of thousands of immortals, it’s okay to attract thousands of immortals!
When I rushed to a broken wooden house, I remembered that it should be the Lei Gong Temple. I didn’t think there was anything elegant about it, but Xiao Qi even insisted on taking a photo with Bo Itachi! Look at Bo Itachi's expression, how reluctant he is.
I picked up a thin stainless steel cauldron used by large caravans on the road. I thought that we could cook a big meal together at night without having to divide the pots. I happily stuffed it into the hood of my backpack and carried it for a long time to catch up with my fourth brother. He had better strength and stuffed it into the hood of his backpack (unexpectedly, when he was approaching Heianji Temple later, he decided to rush down the mountain and asked me to take it out and throw it on the road. After carrying it for more than ten kilometers, it was picked up by the business leader behind him. It was a routine. deep). There were instructions for Dayehai all the way, so I knew I was about to rush into the scenic area. I saw that the track had a fork in the road, whether to go up to Sendai or go straight to Dayehai. I was hesitating when I saw Bo Itachi lying in front to rest alone, so I went with him. After some discussion, I said that I couldn't go straight to the front. After waiting for a long time, I told him to leave without waiting and asked him to talk to the people behind him. Do you think that Bo Itachi's resting posture is because he wants to dig out the whole stone?
When entering Dayehai, the signs for Paoma Liang No Man's Land were pointed in reverse directions all the way.
When we arrived at the foot of Baxiantai, we saw that the vanguard of the caravan in front of us all went up. We also decided to go up and have a look. However, after walking for a short distance, we suddenly saw three or five empty-handed people turning towards Baxiantai from the direction of Dayehai. Standing at the intersection, I initially thought they were scenic spot personnel checking tickets, so I simply stopped moving and took a photo of the Baxian Terrace above my head from a distance, and then waited for the team behind me to make a decision.
I shouted to the people in the rear group until someone seemed to be guarding the intersection of Shangba Xiantai. When they all arrived, they cut straight to Dayehai. I rushed down the mountain and cut directly to Dayehai.
Uncle Hai saw that there were people eating noodles and drinking drinks. I unloaded my bags and asked Bo Itachi to help me take a look, and went up to eat and drink on the hour. I went and drank a small bottle of Lehu, then a bowl of hot and sour noodles, and then a small bottle of Lehu. I spent 80 yuan and finally felt so comfortable...
After eating and drinking, I came out and saw that Bo Weasel had disappeared. I thought he might have run away again. Just dry the tent and wait for the rear team. Waiting left and waiting, waiting and waiting, not coming after the tents have been put away, people from the big caravan are almost finished arriving one after another, and many people who don’t want to go down the mountain by rope from Tangyu Scenic Area have also left... Think about what’s ahead I saw them right behind me at the fork in the road, but I was worried that everyone had left to meet up with Bo Weasel. I was left alone to wait for more than an hour, so I had no choice but to pick up my bag and head forward. Later, when we came out of the mountain to rendezvous, we found out that Xiao Qi, Piao Sword, and Liu Haijun had climbed up to the Baxian Terrace to pose for photos. In order to fully show the excitement of the three guys climbing to the top of Taibai 3767, the video was specially inserted at the same time!
Worried that he was too far away from the front, he trotted all the way to the top of the slope of the Dawengong Temple. Looking down at the mountainside, he saw two guys who looked very similar to Bo Weasel and Fourth Brother. After passing the Grand Wen Gong Temple, we rushed to the Taibai Mountain sign. We quickly found a girl to help us take photos, and then we rushed towards the two running guys. When we met, we realized that Xiao Qi and the other three had not arrived yet, and we didn’t know where they were behind.
After waiting for a while, looking at the person behind the mountainside, Bo Itachi and Fourth Brother couldn't help but pull away again, so I had no choice but to follow them silently. As the altitude drops rapidly along the way, the temperature rises significantly. My thermal underwear felt all wet and stuck to my body, so I asked them to wait for me to take off my clothes. After taking off my thermal underwear and chasing for an hour, there was no sign of Mao. Just thinking about it, I just looked at the trajectory leisurely... One after another, the leaders of the commercial brigade who rushed faster rushed up and asked them to get on. In front of me, I simply admired the flowers and plants on the road.
Following the track all the way to the Fangyang Temple, except for a few business leaders taking a rest, there was still no one around, so we had to continue moving forward without stopping.
I pulled hard all the way from Fangyang Temple to Mingxing Temple. I was tired and fell down. Thinking that I couldn't catch up, I had to go to the two masters. I happened to see two guys collecting mountain spring water from the small cave behind Maoming Temple. What a god! After scolding them both and drinking most of the cold mountain spring water, I suppressed the anger in my heart a little. The two of them said that they would go to Heian Temple as soon as possible, and if there was no accident, they would go down the mountain directly. I said that my energy was almost exhausted, and the fastest route to Heian Temple would be around five o'clock, so we would discuss it based on the actual situation.
The road from Mingxing Temple to Pingan Temple is obviously not as easy as the previous one. I walked up and down five times in a row... It felt like I was not running towards Pingan Temple, but clearly I was running towards Unsafe! After spending the last remaining energy, I finally rushed to the legendary Heian Temple. Although it was a shabby house, it was at least better than the previous eunuchs who had no hair. There was an old Taoist priest staying at this Heian Temple. I ran in and asked about the last can of Red Bull. I pulled the lid off and drank it without saying a word, and then asked the price of 15 yuan. After finding out that it would take about 3 hours to get to Yingge Town at the foot of the mountain, my fourth brother and Bo Weasel agreed to immediately reduce the load and run. I really wanted to camp on the spot and lie down. Thinking about the fact that there were three more people who could not be seen at Heianji Temple, we were worried and unhappy about abandoning them. When things were going wrong, the commercial leader from the back arrived and said he would inform the back team about our descent. At the same time, there were three people in front who had packed up and rushed down the mountain. There was a rumble of thunder from Paoma Liang in the distance. I couldn't help but hesitate any longer. I took out all the food in the bag that was enough to be worn one more time and gave it to the Taoist priests of Heian Temple. I felt so anxious that I rushed straight away. Who's afraid? who!
After finally seeing the warning sign, I suddenly felt enlightened. The river was flowing up and down! At seven o'clock, the track showed that we were already halfway down the mountain. Then we reached the entrance of the village leisurely, unloading our bags, soaking our feet, and replenishing water by the river... We walked calmly and calmly alone for more than 30 minutes, and we were already there. Yu Jia was relieved when he saw the artificial water conservancy construction and machine-made road conditions... At nearly 8 o'clock, the warm-hearted god Bo Itachi came back empty-handed to meet up. He was so happy! The two gods arrived at Yangpigou Posthouse at half past seven, and the original three-hour journey was decided in two hours. Human physical strength is inherently beautiful and unique, so you can’t force it! We were very happy all the way and we left the mountain on time at 20:20 and arrived at Yangpigou Posthouse!
D5: Let’s get together again and eat and drink like crazy
Yingge Town~Xi'an~Return by train
In the past two days, due to my biological clock and excessive excitement, I woke up at around 4 a.m. and couldn’t sleep, so I continued to flash my phone like crazy. At around 5 a.m., my fourth brother yelled at the station owner to send him off to rush to the high-speed rail station back to Chengdu. Before I could go out to see him off, he slipped away. No one was seen. After getting up and washing up, I found that Bo Itachi was also excited to get up early. He finished his breakfast leisurely, talked about the mountains with the owner of the station, and sat quietly waiting for the three people behind him to go down the mountain. I accidentally saw the announcement letter about the disappearance of college student Ao Tai on May 1st, and I was very moved!
At four or five o'clock in the morning, I remembered that I had not contacted the driver, so I asked Xiucai to get the driver's phone number at around seven o'clock. It turned out that Xiao Qi had contacted Qiao Feng yesterday through the special line phone of Ping'an Temple and was coming in a hurry. After nine o'clock, all members of the caravan in front came out one after another, chirping! We didn't see our teammates alone. It was already ten o'clock in the period, so we came down the mountain excitedly after seeing them all! Soon the driver Qiao Feng arrived as promised, got in the car, took a group photo, walked out of Yangpigou, and headed straight to Tang Chang'an!
Because Bo Itachi and I both returned by train at around 9:30 pm, we hurried back to the youth hostel at around 8 pm to pick up our bags and then headed to the train station. Still not forgetting to take a peek at the Bell and Drum Tower of Chang'an at night!
I spent the last few minutes smoothly climbing into the sleeper berth for the return trip. When I lay down and used my phone to reply to messages, I realized that Bo Itachi was a few minutes late and didn't get on the train on time, so he went back to the youth hostel with them to continue his corruption! And I am moving and sleeping peacefully, waiting to return to the land of Jingchu!
Life is not just about living in front of you, there are also poems you can’t read and places you can’t reach... While you still have some time to spend, go and spend as much as you want.
