Song Yao is a native of Yibin, Sichuan. He used to go home with two people before the new year. This time, Liu Xin said to Song Yao, "if you can ride home, it will be interesting." In this way, the two men set a gentleman's agreement. After the winter vacation, the school went home together.
"although impulsive, but since there is a gentleman's agreement, we must strive to achieve." Liu Xin and Song Yao told the Chongqing evening news reporter that after making the decision, they began to prepare for 2 months.
first is physical exercise, Liu Xin and song Yao gradually increase the amount of exercise every day, regardless of wind and rain, to run 10 laps of 4000 meters to return to the bedroom. At the same time, two people will take 1 hours to visit the cycling forum every day to find out the routes from Wuhan to Chongqing.
"the family gives me 1000 yuan monthly living expenses, I usually can save more than 100 yuan, this part of the savings is the money that I buy equipment." Liu Xin said, in order not to increase the financial burden, he searched the Internet for warm water kettles, flashlights, bicycle rack, goggles, medical bags, mask and so on on the Internet. It cost roughly 1000 yuan.
it's getting closer and closer to the winter vacation. Liu Xin's bicycle is not yet available. Later, he bought a second-hand 80% new bike, 700 yuan, and the original price was 1400 yuan. Liu Xin said, "I don't think it is necessary to buy a new bike, because I do not plan to cycle back to Wuhan, so this bike will be used very little. Besides, cycling is easier to ride than a new car, and is suitable for long distance cycling. " On the 14 day of
, the news of Liu Xin and song Yao going home on their way home was spread throughout the class, but Liu Xin and song Yao's parents did not know. "16 hours by train, 100 yuan will be able to go home. If it takes about 2000 yuan to ride home with my parents, it will take 9 days or so, and they will never agree." Song Yao and Liu Xin said, "it's better to beat it first."
accident
teacher adverse pull the right leg
ice snow mountain road experience limit
with full confidence, 15 morning at 8, Liu Xin and Song Yao from the school gate, but not yet out of Wuhan, Liu Xin "ouch" a sound, the right foot pulled.
"because I was so excited, I made the lowest mistake - cycling without warming up." Liu Xin told the Chongqing evening news reporter: "it was very painful at that time, and I was embarrassed to give my partner more rest and then go, so I had to put up with it."
Liu Xin said, two days before the road, he came back with reluctantly, "the right foot was injured, so the left foot was exerting itself." Liu Xin said: "although the pain, but I think it's still worth it. After the Jianghan Plain, the beautiful scenery along the road has made people forget the pain."
19, when crossing the Qi Yue mountain in Lichuan, Hubei, the average elevation of more than 1500 meters above the mountain peaks really let Liu Xin and Song Yao suffer a lot. Song Yao told the Chongqing evening news that they started on the same day at 9 a. m. and rode over the mountain until 4 p.m., "the mountains were thick ice columns and the roads were wet and slippery. Now it is really dangerous to recall the mountains by both of us."
"when I was riding to the top of the mountain to prepare to go down, my feet were frozen, and I heard song Yao joking with me and said, 'look, the mountains are trampled by us.' Liu Xin told the Chongqing evening news reporter: "now, in retrospect, when people are at their most tired and near the limit, only the optimistic spirit can overcome everything."
moved
lost heart fear
unfamiliar uncle to lend a hand to
Song Yao and Liu Xin told the Chongqing evening news reporter, although they repeatedly checked the line, but in practice there is still a problem.
before traveling, Liu Xin turned the thick notebook which took two months to make notes into a circuit diagram, so that it could be easily looked out at any time. The Chongqing evening news reporter saw that the A4 paper was densely packed with the names of the places and marked with 90 arrows. From Wuhan to Tongnan, from Wuhan to Tongnan, they passed 15 big names: Wuhan, Xiantao, Qianjiang, Jingzhou, Zhijiang, Yichang, Enshi, Lichuan, Fengdu, Fuling, Chongqing main city, Bishan, etc., on this piece of paper on the way.
"the provincial highway is easy to find. It is just when we reach the urban area that the road is difficult to find, and it takes a lot of time." Liu Xin said, "when we get to the Shizhu yellow water on the 21 day, it is already dark. But according to the plan, we have to turn over two mountains before we can find a hotel."
time goes by in a minute, and two people are winding along the mountain road. "In fact, it was a bit of a worry at that time. I felt tired, the road was rotten again, and the butt was painful, except for the two of us." Liu Xin said that in order to dispel his fear, he and song Yao kept talking to each other.
"I didn't know where to throw a yellow light, and Liu Xin and I had a real feeling of being saved - a van coming from a distance, the uncle who was driving saw us in a mess, and asked us to get on the car and say to his house." Song Yao said, "the uncle's family is in Huangshui. We rest at his home on the same day."
"uncle didn't ask what our surname was, just chatted with us. We told him about the riding plan, and he encouraged us." Liu Xin sighed, "we didn't ask him what his family name was, so he kept a very simple trust with each other and maintained a kind of warmth and kindness between people."
sound
something meaningful, it's time to take advantage of the young to do
"Mom and Dad, I go to the stone column, and get home soon." On the 22 day, Liu Xin made a telephone call to his family and told his parents about the ride. "At that time my mother shouted on the phone," my silly son, such a dangerous thing you dare to do ah! "
until yesterday, at 23 p.m., 5 p.m., Song Yao returned to his hometown without telling anyone at home about his riding experience. "Mom and dad work in Zhejiang. I don't want them to worry about me." Song Yao said.
yesterday, the Chongqing evening news reporter contacted Liu Xin's father, Liu Ji. Liu, a 41 year old father, said, "as a parent, which one would like to risk his own doll? When Liu Xin came back, the whole man was thin and black, and he didn't know that he had eaten a lot outside. But I know the son, he will do a thing to be fully prepared, although he is a student, but also an adult, have their own ideas, parents can not always control him. When he is young, he thinks that something meaningful should be done. "
Liu Xin, a friend in junior high school in Tongnan, told the Chongqing evening news reporter that in December last year, Liu Xin told him the idea of riding home. "Peng Shuang," "He has always been an independent person, I believe he can do it, and I support his idea." Peng Shuang said.
