The width of the

Our car must have taken a wrong turn and met a convoy of trucks hauling coal from Shanxi Province. The width of the road is at most the width of two cars, before and after our car, at this time has been lined up with coal trucks, on both sides of the road is the mountain, like a knife cutting, straight and straight, and high, blocked our line of sight, look up only to the day. Feel in despair, forward can not, backward no way. There was not a single person to be seen on the road, so we had to wait for more than two hours for the long, tall coal trucks to move away one by one. Now the car was able to move and was finally off the dangerous stretch of road. On the way to a farm vehicle, the car of the farmer brother told us that we did go wrong, can only go wrong, he gave the driver pointed the direction, how to run to the camel Liang mountain, at this time has more than 2 o 'clock in the afternoon. This section of road potholes, dusty, full of large trucks, put us a passenger car sandwiched in the middle, not to mention the police, even the individual see, can not risk? The leader of the party was anxious and frightened. This bumpy road, has been more than eight hours passed, (we were tired and hungry, in the morning each a pancake, a salted duck egg; A bag of milk, a bun, two bottles of mineral water. In the car, everyone is silent, the excitement of the morning is gone. It was very quiet in the car. Some people were asleep, but I couldn't sleep. And so it went on for more than two hours, out of the difficult road. Ahead, the ground guide had been waiting for us for some time. She got into her car and showed us the way. The car came to a stop at a bungalow, like a farm-yard, and everyone got out to stretch their legs and relieve themselves, and the driver took the opportunity to rest. It began to rain, and we dared not lose any time, so we set out for our destination. It was already past 6 o 'clock in the evening, but you could still see the corn fields and peanut fields nearby, and the mountains in the distance... Etc. The first day of the rubber boat rafting was delayed by a wrong way and had to be cancelled without looking at the coffin. The day went from excitement to gloom to disappointment, and everyone was silent.

It was getting dark as the bus jolted us on. Passing by a small mountain village, and passed a small mountain village. The village was dark, with flickering lights. At this time has been more than 10 o 'clock at night, the bus carrying us on the Panshan Road, curved, narrow; The sky is black, the headlights are bright; Next to the driveway, one side is the mountain, the other side is the bottom of the abyss, dark; The front is dark, the road is dark, the mountain is dark; The driver's eyes were wide open and the car moved slowly; So it was twelve o 'clock in the night before we reached our lodgings after another two hours on the dark and dangerous mountain road. Friends, you say this mountain road is not a surprise and a risk! The two-day trip became a one-day trip, and the day became a bus trip! The tour was a failure on the part of the organizers. Road conditions and routes have not been properly implemented before; Do not know the driver and driver is familiar with the road conditions, such a car with more than 50 people! It's too risky to hand over to a driver like that. We've been on the bus for 17 hours and we're all tired. Is the driver not tired? What if the driver was tired? It is beyond imagination! It is hard to blame the organizers for their good intentions and failure to do good. The restaurant had already prepared meals for us. We were really tired and hungry, and did not want to say anything. He rested soon after the meal in order to recover his strength for the mountain climb tomorrow. The next day, the bus sent us to the foot of the Tuoliang Mountain, we walked up the hill, began "sightseeing". The trail of Tuoliang Mountain is a ramp built around the mountain, and it is relatively easy to walk, only feel the downward gravity pull leg heavy. When you enter Tuoliang Hill, velvety green and watery here, it is like natural oxygen. There are waterfalls and long valleys, so named because the top of the mountain resembles a hump
