5 / 1, Yin, take from Shanghai to Yichang long-distance sleeper cars (350 million) a day, a class.
MICHAELL early 1 day to Wuhan, Shenzhen, 4 train to Wuhan, Yichang, agreed in the collection.
5 / 2, Wuhan - Yichang - Xiangxi - Koyama - Muyu - flagon Ping woke up truck has come to Han-Yi high-speed, the world is from light rain, roads on both sides of the Jianghan Plain shrouded in a rain and fog into. I do not know why, on this trip when I would not a trace of excitement, perhaps the relationship between the weather bar.
After 17 hours of bumpy, 8 am to reach Yichang. 11:30, large force arrived, I set out oily fish hot pot restaurants, Michael came up to me holding out his hand, said: "You are ALLEN, and I is MICHAEL." 11 knowledge and awareness, they eat fast food fertilizer fish hot pot, as to catch the 12:30 boat to Xiangxi, and then transferred to the Muyu Xingshan town.
Finally and organizations to contact, and heart began to inexplicably to excited, the table is familiar with everyone soon. Because of my name sake, Hong MM always thought I was a girl, saw I was a bit distracted, did not expect that a "handsome guy" bar. TIGER to see my colleague Lee MM, thought it was my girlfriend and say that I look good, lust of the bar. However, non-stop mouth Dongkuai, timely elimination of lunch, but unfortunately I have to worry about points of wild-oily fish do not have time to savor.
Holding a pre-set a good ticket finally catch up with the "Yangtze River hydrofoil," Los Angeles Clippers, and soon the scenery of Li Li Xiling Gorge in the head. In addition to the mountain tops, and I had a nap in the cabin, others go look at the scenery of the ship's side.
More than one hours later, the ship arrived in Xiangxi. Just up the pier, just a vehicle to Xingshan of the CMB, 6 individual 6 pack on the plug into it. Drove out near the road becomes more and more muddy and bumpy. Most of the original farm to move here, no one to maintain dirt roads, large trucks would be held down jagged surface, combined with rain, simply could not open too.
On several occasions parking and wife get off to the dredging and filling the conductor. Sat in the car very irritable, only joking with the Hong MM. This way, ah, open stop-open until 5 am, only to Xingshan felt very regret chose this route.
To the bus stop to find the last one to go Xingshan Muyu mini-car, six individual six pack barely squeeze into them, and I sat very uncomfortable MICHAEL holding packages. Fortunately, this path is very flat road, is said to be central to inspect a recently built by the leadership.
The sky dimming, landscape getting better and better, and suddenly a waterfalls from the mountains hanging in the sky, the reminding us of scenes from heaven, and quickly called the parking, and waterfalls from the recent peak at jet out, as if under the white Longyou. Move on, another a three Diebao, it is stopped. In order to hurry as quickly as possible, only left quietly.
In the night, the car towards Muyu. Is very far from the town to see the wooden fish feasting, strange world away from the dust in this place where there are so how could the bright lights, can only lament the rapid development of tourism.
As the pre-contact is a good accommodation flagon ping Haoshuidaiyue, the continual increase in the money, the driver finally agreed to move on. Car driving on the winding mountain road, fog is getting stronger, finally went so far as it is difficult to see across the intersection of the car, and my heart not help worry about them.
20:00 more before reaching the flagon Pinglin District Station, arrange accommodation and begins to eat dinner, over the mountain tops, and wizards ZHOU Li-jun of line. For several days because of rain, wizard, right across the river Yin yu is not sure about the proposed changes to routes. And then talked about some of the mountains note, such as iron trap of what the clip, people nervous at the heart. Link wizard asking price of vehicles is too high, the final decision by the wizard to continue to link the first two days early reply.
Fond, people began to organize backpack. Xiang MM carefully to find that Humayun did not bring rain gear also did not wear Jackets, so with over a mountain breeze returns, and to his poncho to him. After washing my first one sparse lie down to sleep.
5 / 3 flagon Ping - Shennongjia Nature Conservation to-XX Mountain - Big Longtan - guanyin cave early in the morning over the mountain tops, and Michael went on the hill after the stroll, and the wizard came, and then there is no connection to the car, and the proposed changes to routes on foot into the mountains. So a pedestrian entrance at the flagon Ping Station map before the camera, start!
Days of shade, but our emotions are good, walked along the road. Coach carrying tourists from time to time passing, I and Hu Ma joked, finally deceived by him into his bag of fish canned moved my bag, and this along the way to pretend with him Ou Qi, Hu Ma not blame me ah. Shennongjia Nature Reserve soon to the entrance, visitors are looking at us with envious eyes, feeling very proud.
Wizard of the mountains here are not familiar with, along with his sister recruited into the mountains. Move on along the highway, over a highway bridge began to fold into the mountains of. Mountain road was soon a stream block, the wizard Pathfinder, but can not find a suitable way to climb. Harm one group of people to cross the river again, I carefully, and get a good Hong MM treatment, and the wizard is pleased to have their backs to cross the river, but almost fell into the water Tiger.
Finally chose the one on the mountain, I hasten to bring yarn gloves, looked for a tree branch to do a walking stick, a crutch to remind Humayun election. But surprisingly, only one group of people I brought gloves, their hands were later suffer, were the mountains, plunging Luancao a lot of thorns.
Days began to rain, and a group of people there is no road to climb the mountain to climb ah, Hu Ma physical good, followed by the wizard to quickly climb, and I really regret it helped him back more than a fish, canned food, depriving their extremely weak In fact, he most of the weight-bearing than I am, but you're looking for an excuse. I climbed over the mountain tops look very much effort, and told me to fasten the hip belt backpack, backpack turned out a lot of light, but also to learn a move. Tiger climbing skills seem very well, climb unstable branches often hangs, and his weight-bearing are also high.
I do not know how long climb, and finally near the summit where we rest down. Remove the chocolate over the mountain tops, cucumbers and other foods, I had already exhausted and hungry, eating a point we go. Fog had surrounded the four weeks, Hu Ma has reached the peak we climbed up to the shouting. Later it transpired that Humayun is the expedition team members, no wonder so well physically, as I had such a corrupt consistent, and climb the near future does not.
Continue upwards, in the mist of their climb with, feeling very much like the action movie scenes. I limbs touch the ground, Hen Langbei to climb in the final, we continued to cheer me on, and finally reach the summit. People simply can not fog the distance, only seen near the clumps of pink rhododendrons bloom in the rain.
Then start down the road have heard two pairs of line dispute wizard, we break the back of the mountain down over the mountain tops, and Michael took out the stove soup, we ate point of dry food, rest. Fog is still very strong, distant scenery is also seen only knew that he might sleepwalking usually in the mountains.
Continue down the mountain, mountain is very slippery and can not walk along the tracks in front of people, so the wizard's advice about iron clamp traps aside their own to find a way down. Look at my carefully look carefully, over the mountain tops, they taught me sideways down the mountain, then follow the team through the bamboo grove chaos across the creek and went back to the starting place, really frustrating ah!
Have long to lose control of my legs, but also tired no energy to angry, smoked cigarettes, incense MM even have a branch, was very, very, Michael is seen to educate a bit. A group of people rickety, just full of mud, all wet and did not have were the same again.
Retrace in situ, in the road to catch a farm vehicle, fled the entrance to the morning. In order to fare evasion, a group of people from the Shennongjia Nature Reserve, near the gate where furtive underground roads. But hampered by a small stream, wizards, ZHOU Li-jun to come forward one by one back off of our streams. Then stealth climb, and finally not be discovered, embarked on a protected area of the highway.
I was already exhausted much rejection in the ranks behind, but fortunately, met in Wuhan Xiaolongtan Mix to his rental car is willing to carry us to guanyin cave, so a group of people down at the roadside rest. I Xiang MM to pay off the mountain tops, I quietly kept eating chocolate, smell the mountain tops will be too afraid of MM seems to blame her.
Ah ah, etc., etc., and finally their cars, and was chatting to guanyin cave we enter the big Longtan fled. Along the way deserted less and less, and only a dirt road look inside Yan Shen, vehicles continue to slip, we are constantly down carts. Finally arrived guanyin cave, and over the mountain tops, and Michael find a good place to tie tent tent, Tiger went to water, and I look for a branch when the material Humayun fire, the wizard responsible for a large plastic tent rain ride, I have tired , and then act in a way a bit to find firewood.
After a day of drilling forest hiking back to the original plan was the starting point, we all know not help a bit frustrating. Wizard's sister insisted on going home, because the morning, when she had been raising mountain guide wrong, and we are very worried that she will not come tomorrow, and finally she agreed to 8:30 tomorrow morning will come on the attendant and left.
Fire finally gave birth to them, over the mountain tops, and Michael has spared no effort to cook soup for everyone. Sometimes no rain for the next with no one person has dry places, especially since Tiger and Humayun dress is not waterproof, but also soaked to the skin, climbing shoes are damp, and was the mountains feel Fengyi Chui cold.
The sky is very dark, and finally cooked fragrant rice and soup, and everyone politely with humility, in fact, everyone is hungry. Bonfire Indian red each person's face, Tiger also attend to many, and get butt facing the roast pants, others grilled roasted socks socks, clothes, baked roasted clothes. A gust of wind came and smoked out of tears.
While the environment is so hard, the weather so bad, the body is also extremely tired, but we also very good state of mind, and constantly joked and discuss who can and incense MM tents to sleep the first day of the last Tiger won the affection of its well-equipped tents, after you Camping 10 million must be willing to spend money on top of high-level tent ah! The best red cushion is also available.
As the tired, my first lie down asleep, bedtime asked the mountain tops, whether or not to vigil, the wizard there are no problems, so he safely asleep.
5 / 4 guanyin cave - Big Longtan - Xiaolongtan - Shen Nong's top - wooden partition Rock - Xiaolongtan - Wizard Home - flagon Ping a long time ago from the tent to hear Michael climbed out with a camera to go, I felt powerless can only continue to sleep. I do not know how long before, Michael ran shouted, "Qichuang La, quick to see where the scenery!" So idly dragging the body, followed by Tiger walked together to the mountains.
Shade of the sky, the mountains the air is very fresh, surrounded by a silence. Come to the end to see that the ultimate path of beauty, in the cove where a thick fog covering the foot of the mountain, just like a white Wang lake, distant mountains are white clouds hide. We are so caught in which fairyland ah.
Michael came back over the mountain tops, and have breakfast, well, not starting up late Hong MM. Ate instant noodles, under the rain began to rise, and quickly the whole package, closed tents, cleaning the camp. It had been almost 9 points, and the wizard's sister had yet to emerge. How to do? Continue to the hills, the Wizard is not familiar with the fog and rain is likely to get lost drilling not come out. Although the guide promises, after yesterday's struggles, his words have been greatly reduced. So the decision today to change to go over the mountain tops, play spots, Tang Shen Nong the top, go siding rock.
No cell phone signal can only be folded back to retrace their steps DALONGTAN waiting. People began to start, my legs were extremely sore, a little to lose control, but fortunately, is taking the mountain Road. Michael and Hu Ma physical nice ah, all the way to run first. Some walked more than an hour, and finally reach the highway side of big Longtan, the team began to break.
And so on for a moment found that riding is unlikely, so along the road towards the direction of walking Xiaolongtan. To a small Longtan, the visitors looked embarrassed like we do not know what to think. Guide to find his friend, so put aside his big package, contact vehicles, pack light traveling bar. Chile Dun rich tourist in a restaurant meal, as long as 200 yuan, but finally returned to the earth.
Xiaolongtan scenery is also good, stream side take dozens of tents, Wuhan yesterday, with the gang should be here, camping Mix bar. But soon come to Beijing Jeep vehicles, over the mountain tops, and wizards to sit front and the remaining five people squeezed into the back seat together, smell MM is no less than crowded, and only four men sitting on the thigh, Hu Ma is responsible for head, Tiger relatively strong, is responsible for load-bearing part, Michael is responsible for the thigh, I can only aggrieved about, take hiking shoes full of mud.
Car all the way to the top of Shen Nong fled in the direction, and we relaxed mood much joked with each other. Is still very gloomy days, when the rain stopped the moment, to reach the foot of a sudden attention has been attracted to yellow in Luancao slopes, clumps of azaleas in full bloom with the race to develop in the fog. We excitedly climb, I have difficulty with the back, over the mountain tops, and constantly cheer me on.
Climbed about 300 meters to 2800 above sea level, I really could not make it move, and require in-situ, everybody. So over the mountain tops, to find a good marker, I stayed. Team will soon disappear in the fog, mountain roads are also covered, in the vast expanse of whiteness in the visibility was very low. One person left feeling very lonely, cranky up soon, will not have snakes there would be a beast there would be a trap. Waves of blowing wind, feeling particularly cold, so hide in the bush near the shelter from the wind.
Waiting time is particularly long, and finally heard the cries of the mountains warm, quickly ran out and everyone to join. To continue to ride down to the wooden partition rock, this time I am assigned to Hong MM in the thigh. Along the way they kept the Yueyuexiaoxiao suddenly saw a large team of people working against the wind the rain, walk forward. What equipment do not appear, there are demands MM wave riding, we all like this, and how you ride too on the ah.
Rock the wooden partition, and no one received tickets, so mixed tourists, in the strange stone in the left circle, it is not what it feels like. Down Zuoju Hui Xiaolongtan, this time I am offering to pay for the load-bearing part of the Hong MM, unexpectedly opened the car a sense of wrong. Two legs under the weight of endless pain, the original MM hold such a big price to pay, ah, next time you dare not, or that Tiger powerful, Tiger back Road, Zanzhe wife hold an exercise ourselves, smug in.
Fog began to thicken, visibility is almost five fingers reaching not see the car driving road in the mountains, and each time will make many people nervous car. Finally returned to the small Longtan, my legs have been held down not recognize it. To retrieve their backpacks into the car, the wizard said in order to make up for our regret, you can live in his house, and roast sheep for us to taste. So it was pleased that the ground vehicles, this is still obediently holds bar lovers a month.
When the vehicle arrives at the flagon Ping heavy rain began to get up the next, the wizard lives in shelters across the mountains, as drivers struggle to pay for the problem, the team held hostage in the rain. Everyone was cold, I took out the liquor used for the disinfection of drinking a few mouthfuls, feel better. Along the rain-fed streams quickly to a wizard Tsuchiya, several dogs vicious shouting, the wizard put its one of the most powerful dogs leash, and then let us go.
Only his father's home, one person, usually sheep to help him. Tsuchiya 1:00 no less than a small crowd so many people sleep here, seems unlikely. So turn back the rain over the mountain tops, and Michael Station contact accommodation, Tiger to come forward and help guide to kill sheep, the only requirement is two sheep eggs can be left to he used, and the remaining 3 corrupt elements in the fire on the crowd edge Kaohuo. Rain may upset people, but also too busy to think dirty, dark and eat the hand clutching something.
Guo mountain breeze finally returned, only to find a room, open up shop bar. A group of people on her own bag in the rain once again turn back to the room and feel is very clean, though empty inside the walls. Over the mountain tops, to do dinner again Manghuo Zhao, other people change their wet clothes and washing. Dinner is lamb hot pot, very fragrant. But the fatigue I have no appetite for, and hastened to remove the sleeping bag after eating moisture-proof mat to sleep, today the mountain tops, too tired, and stayed to sleep early with me. Others, energy diminished, is still Weizhehuolu chat. Admire ah!
5 / 5 flagon Ping - Swallow Jiangya Scenic Area - Red-Ping Gallery - Red Town of - flagon Ping - Muyu town woke up, Michael went out early as usual, and Hong MM at the foot of a wall to sleep, no wake. Or overcast days, yesterday, a jeep driver was not satisfied, but today at the door early. After dinner we washed sparse, pack light set out.
Learn from yesterday's experience, continue to hold incense MM's lovers a month. Trucks would soon onto winding mountain roads, scenery is particularly beautiful, due to days of rain, the road from time to time to see falling rock, some people worried. Vehicles continue to climb around the mountain, sometimes in the clouds where people feel, it is really ah!
After 3 days of getting along, we have a very integrated, and laugh along the way to abuse, singing constantly. 're Not careful, the thigh of a Hong MM lotus refers to hurt my wah-wah Zhijiao, was amazing! It was a pleasure singing the "Song of marriage": married it, silly X of the bar, there is not a dime pocket it? Divorced it, silly X of the bar, we must pay the bar from XX. (A man's voice the whole ah!) There is a "primitive good", specifically lyrics remember.
The wild environment is dangerous, and it is free. Speak / sing no scruples, but also all the way to release stress. Roadside stream of water Pentium and before, not help people to stop watching. I do not know where to spreading waves of stench, too unpleasant. The original side of the stream has a head of sheep drowned, the wizard's head cut off it came.
Truck continued to climb, and soon reach the swallows Jiangya scenic areas, get off the first thing is to find WC. WC hillside here, each one, are the most scenic of the WC. Ticket entry, along the stone steps to view the scenery of clouds Raoshan, nowadays, when the rain stops, I have no interest, but felt pain in legs and sour.
To the Savage hole, a team of improvisational play, climbing the cliffs along the chain left a photo. Play a few hours out of car rush red ping gallery. At the entrance to the mountains and found a big block of grassland, in particular, under the infiltration of rainwater into the eyes, heart moved to the walk idea. The consent agreement over mountain breeze, three individuals left it down, where the landscape much like the Spring Festival, when I go to Zhongdian see it. Intersection waiting for the rest on the opposite side, strangely enough, a walk grassland, my leg is hurt by.
Through the grassland, even with the walk to the Red Town in mind. Over the mountain tops, discuss the matter with the wizard, and then ran the wizard to ask grassland farm on the road, a team of people began to walk across the red floor gallery / jadeite valley. Today, the absence of backpacks, although the wet weather, it was easy for us to go. One to go down this mountain of dirt, leg pain immediately without really Fanjian!
Under the leadership of the wizard, the team began to Yanxi Red Town in the water went down the hill. As this route has not gone through the wizard, his constant back and forth pathfinder. Hastened to ask the next farming families went to find a big sister know that route, then asked her to help lead the way. Continuously along the stream down, Zaifan on the cove, along the way very few people smoke. In addition to slippery trail, very easy to wrestling and other basic no danger.
Today, due to light pack, did not bring gloves, stabbed in the palm of your hand quickly Luancao. A group of people climbed up and down the forest in the valley, approaching the exit of red floor galleries, in order to free riders will not be found, but also around the valleys. Guide fees can go on to find a great Jincai steep, so a knife cut off the stick and began sliding down the bottom. Finally, within the scenic area, and quickly washed in the river, wash dirty pain in the hand.
Ladder-pass from the scenic area (thin strip of sky) up,'re tired. Michael marched behind hundreds of stairs that I walked, and finally reach the top, the wizard after the eldest sister took us to Hill intersection, with us breaking up. Team to continue to walk in the mountain road, people keep slipping. Went to the foot of mountains, is red, Town of. At this point everyone was feeling hungry, just as a restaurant for dinner, drinking, Kaohuo.
In constant contact over the mountain tops, a return train ticket thing, Michael and I have to change the itinerary, early back to Shanghai. Liquor Baofan foot, the board Jeep, fled to the flagon Ping. After this an additional crossing, finally feeling a little bit of Shennongjia. We are also very excited and happy all the way back to flagon Ping Station.
Ping in the flagon, when taking backpack, even by the local people to make things difficult, we must send an additional package charge fees, they really want money like crazy. Ping have been feeling a bit disappointed to live flagon that way right there, people feel even worse.
Jeep in the rain to take us to the Muyu town, in the wizard to find the one family hostels rest down. Everyone takes their turn for bathing and laundry Kaohuo, baked socks, clothes, baked, roasted shoes, hiking shoes tongue was accidentally baked a big hole lost. Xiang MM Yishengcanjiao suddenly heard, and quickly see that there are of leech crawling in her clothes. Such a courageous even afraid of a little incense MM Leech, I really unthinkable bar! Grasp of earthworms scare her next time.
Then Hu Ma said that I also have leech socks, I looked at, there are blocks of Ying Ying socks the color of socks and thought it was scorched, and do not care. Wait a minute taking a bath when he suddenly found that ankle bleeding and understand that Humayun is correct. In haste, washing, take Band-Aid paste.
Tomorrow should be different, dinner FB Be kind of meal, drink tipsy hazy, lie down to sleep.
5 / 6 Muyu Town - Yichang - Wuhan, more than was 6:00 am wake-up to Yichang in China and Pakistan have been waiting for. Quickly wash sparse dinner, left quietly.

Yichang, a little something to rest, ate lunch on the rush to Wuhan. After dinner, Michael and I reluctantly embrace with you separately. After this event, everyone's feelings have been very deeply, although not experienced any death in the face, but the days and nights together, can never be erased from memory.
