51 received a friend's message, the letter said that "now is a fighter to work, took to the streets is a warrior, the restaurant is the champion at home is a token, SMS does not return for the receipt of the martyrs, I wish a happy holiday 51" . I returned to the message, because I do not want to not want my friends to worry that I become a martyr, but forgot to ask: If you are traveling out to be that? Because, at this time I was driving a car, with his wife and at the end of three year-old daughter about to turn from Guizhou, Sichuan, rushed to the journey.
Because "SARS", this year's 51 is not unusual, since it is time to travel Ershi This trip is not unusual, especially for the daughter has not yet come to know things. Although now, she still can not understand.
Will now be on the road a few fragments of the more profound impression on the record.
1, Chongqing's a lovely stupid police I do not intend to belittle the police in Chongqing, even if it is for this so I walked a lot of costly mistakes of the police officers the same. I told him in detail has been full of enthusiasm and respect, but his passion to help the result is that I distinctly delayed more than an hour.
I met him at a crossroads, and it is strange that he is my turn in Chongqing city, a large circle saw only a traffic cop, but did not encounter traffic jams from beginning to end, that is, to now I still In the end the wondering.
My next goal is to Qijiang, that is, that because of the Rainbow Bridge incident sonic booms Qijiang the country, and after this into Guizhou, after Loushanguan, Zunyi and Guiyang.
It was a young traffic cop looks a bit delicate and pretty, spoke not a pot flavor accompanied by a standard Putonghua, in the bright glare of the midday sun, I came before him. This is a crossroads of the bridge has a turntable, or vice versa constant flow of people and cars from the side through, while also continue to hum under the bridge the sound of the roar, but I do not know place to go.
Here is our dialogue.
"Police officer, may I ask how to get to the Qijiang county?", I will be car stopped in front of him, roll down the window asked.
"Qijiang?" I do not know, I did not fully understand Mandarin, or themselves are not familiar with this place.
"Is that the collapse of the Rainbow Bridge and the dead man's Qijiang County"
"Rainbow Bridge?!" He thought a moment a little, give me point out the following line.
He pointed to the left hand, where there is a sign not far away, and then tell me, first bypass the turntable, and then turn right heading for the direction of Shapingba to Shapingba and then turn right, has been moving forward, will see an overpass, overpass there will be obvious signs will be instructed how to Qijiang.
Although he said the details, but I heard the confused, because I know that Shapingba is a district of Chongqing, "and then turn right into the Shapingba," Which one intersection turn right?
I just muddle, skeptical started the car, along the way nervously watching roadside signs, car was very slow, even in the right hand lane closest to still raise a lot of dissatisfaction with the vehicle hurry hurry, they used the whistle said the voice of their own attitudes.
I have a way a路地turn right, turn right, turn right, but has not seen an overpass, let alone on the Qijiang tips. To increases in passenger traffic, the weather also seems to be more dry and hot in.
Non-stop on the way forward, an hour later, he saw an overpass, but there is no "Qijiang." At this point I have refused to take a lot, choose a direction I did not know, "upper bound" nervous apprehension nervous to go to.
But my disappointment would come along, and when I finished this section of the road traveling, I was surprised to find it back in to the police asking for road junctions. By this time, police have gone.
Since the previous choice of the bridge has failed, I decided to go under the bridge, at worst sub-circle.
However, by doing so they seek a way out there, in my infinite chagrin way ahead is still to less than 300 meters of the place, and I was surprised to find a "Qijiang" That broke hung in my front.
Has finally hit the road, the lovely stupid police let me in Chongqing viewed more than an hour after the face of the city back to the in situ, and in continuation of my trip here.
After moving to the right path and I have been thinking, how could he not know where he stood not far away, there is a road leading to my destination. He may be a new police bar, just as popular online as the new police scripts still follow the rules of the majority of people's behavior, but his enthusiasm and detailed me the addition of a trouble, but I do not therefore hate him, and reason for this is that he's enthusiastic and detailed, I think, he will become a qualified good cop.
Second, after the rush of water overnight after Qijiang more than 10 kilometers, winding mountain after another began to more up days gradually turn black, and it began to rain, the trip had to adjust the original plan and decided to catch the water overnight.
Water is a small catch a small town, adjacent to Tongzi County in Guizhou. 210 State Road, which traverses the city before, will be the town into two. One side of town is the Qijiang River, Chongqing-Guizhou railway crossing and over; the other side is an unknown small peaks, while Yishanbangshui residential construction, and is pretty fun.
Not much rain in the county pedestrians walking on the streets, on-street restaurant hotel has little to patrons, a few barbecue pits on the roadside under the eaves, down a bit dazzling, standing behind the stall Housewives of several young baby.
I was in this town have chosen a new hotel called the bridge a stay there.
Despite the night from time to time through cities across the Qijiang cars and the rumble of the train, but in obscurity in the rain accompanied by tick fall asleep, it is definitely an authentic village sweet night.
Daughter sweet sleep around, the smile has hung on the slightly tired smile. Away from the hubbub, is not even the heart of a child who do not understand things are more quiet, more serene? In her dreams, is there for the first time are carved inside the mountains in early summer night rain the flooding back sound.
As the hurry, I did not more carefully scrutinize the town, but the night rain made me remember it.
3, nine road winding section of track may be more difficult for many of the disc mountain is nothing, but because this is my car travel this most difficult period, so not the same.
In the rush of water overnight when a hotel owner has already asked the road ahead, his presentation is: starting from the rush of water to enter the profession Tongzi County of Guizhou Province, in the middle of more than 40 km winding mountain road known as 9, in particular, difficult, because the roads are. In the last century 30's, Chairman Mao led the Red Army had thus been. For this Code, whether it is true I do not want to research, but think about it this way before the line can enter Loushanguan can enter Zunyi and, therefore, tentatively believe this.
8:00 more, I did not stop the rain in the night went.
This was indeed a difficult road. I say it is difficult, I think not so much the curved multi-risk, but rather a piece of broken pavement, drums, combined with light rain XiXi, blurred vision, exudes a sense of slippery roads. Auto only 10-20 km per hour speed bumps ahead. Very few cars on the road through the occasional sound of an electric three face Dodo passing years, able to see through the thick black smoke into the engine difficulty breathing heavily. I stopped from time to time to check the tires, chassis, and rising water temperatures, even a little fear because of negligence was shelved to this sparsely populated winding mountain road.
I wonder if it passed the "9" number plate mountain, but when I see the Guizhou provincial borders, I know, this section of track to an end.
Looking back, his daughter was asleep in the back seat on the lifeless, smoke of sweat on the tip of the nose, delicate to the light-colored hair.
4, Yelang - Loushanguan arrogant, this Idiom is that many people in a very early age will be able to familiar story, but Yelang of where their lives, but who were not well known.
I was into the Tongzi County found that "Yelang", there is a "Yelang Street,".
"Yelang Street" is a Tongzi county in a very busy commercial street, restaurants, entertainment, stalls, snacks readily available. Into the streets, more than 10 meters there is a Yelang seated, a person must be wearing a towel Lun, wearing robes, ray Xu Ran, 2 Wei Bi, left hand holding the book placed on the leg side, right hand held in front of glass Qing, it seems to make Since the discretion from the For-like, also seemed to invite people sip-like. The beginning of view, seems to be abundant experience, and then of view, This is a stone body.
Yelang the opposite is the "ancient Yelang" Restaurant, its name written in the wind quite Yan style. Shop front has also stood a large sign, a letter to: Tongzi features fried dumpling dumplings.
Leave Tongzi, I always had a doubt, the Chinese sages is known as a high festival is proud of the biography of a tree monument statue of Writing, who, but for the "Yelang" This one is not very honorable figure like the cast in order to shed light on the world I am afraid those are rare. This perhaps reflects the Tongzi people do not shy, often warning of the simple virtues of bar.
Tongzi County after leaving a few kilometers into the Loushanguan.
Loushanguan is Guizhou Xian Ai, the ancient name does not Langshan, mountain Mangcang, sink at the end of rise steeply, in Anhui, Zunyi and other counties and cities hundreds of miles between the winding. In 1935, the Red Army in this defeat Qian Jun, and then take Zunyi, it became famous. Loushanguan a stone one, engraved on the Loushanguan victory of Mao Zedong's poetry "Yiqin E - Loushanguan" 1:
Strong westerly winds, the sky is called frost Chenyue geese.
Cream Chenyue, clip-clop broken, trumpet pharynx.
Man Road Zhenru with big iron, and CHAMC.
Ab Vietnam, Cangshan, such as the sea, setting sun, such as blood.
I have been Loushanguan when the weather has been completely clear, an increasingly steep mountains on both sides of an exception. Trees, lush mountains, at the foot of the road twists and turns. As the wheels of peaks stretching continuously from the side receded. Is no longer strong westerly winds, the sky without yang, frost morning Aria has faded, is lodged in accordance with sound of horse's hoof horn. Only Cangshan has remained in the sea, only with big-man Road, Erh-line.
