Day11: Zhongyi Township - Lazi Township

On the way of recalling the journey, time has come to the new year; probably because of these words, recording the scenery and people encountered, each word is like pedaling circles, ruts, footprints, It's also a way of thinking...

20 kilometers westward from Luolong County, there is a fork, turn left, pass through Shuodu Town, cross Dawengla Mountain to Zhongyi Township, the whole journey is 55 kilometers, of which the gravel road is about 25 kilometers; as shown in the brown line, it is the original province Road 303 Old Road.

The other road goes straight at the fork, and after driving 30 kilometers, it connects to the fork and goes southward for 10 kilometers to Zhongyi Township. This section of road goes upstream along the river without mountains; as shown in the black line in the picture, it is the new road after reconstruction.

Zooming in on the satellite map of the fork in the road, you can see that the displayed provincial road is the original old road, while the new road is the rural road; the same is true for Baidu and Sogou maps, which show the direction with the same eye-catching yellow line, except for Gaode.

The mileage of the new road is almost the same as that of the old road, and it will be much easier without climbing. If we had taken the new road at that time, we would not have turned around and went to Zhongyi Township. According to the actual situation of the next day, we would consider camping or staying at a farmhouse that night;

There is no hotel in Zhongyi Township, and finally turned to the township government for help. After registration and inspection, the leader agreed to spend the night in the reception room inspected by the reception working group.

This is the first time I have asked the township government for help, and generally I would not take the initiative to disturb; I was checked twice before on the streets of Marley Town and Luolong, and the police were friendly; last night I was greeted by the township head (and the head of the police station), Even more flattered.

Leaving the township government on the second day, after a slow uphill, the road is far away from the river, and there are few vehicles on the road. After passing through several villages, people are working in the fields, and the breath of the countryside is surrounded by the sound of wheels...

Passing through the village, I saw a small house on the side of the road. I opened a window on the wall alone. I parked my car and bought a bottle of mineral water. The other one connected to the canteen was a teahouse for the drivers and people in the village to rest. .

While sitting on the stool by the window drinking water, the boss’s little daughter came out of the house and sat directly next to me, holding a doll in her arms, looking up at me curiously for a while, and looking at the bicycle for a while;

The two are like this, you look at me, I look at you, don't talk; take candy out of your pocket, take the opportunity to squat down and take out your phone, rarely take pictures of people on the road, almost no group photos, some friends said you can start a live broadcast to increase your followers , I am somewhat resistant to this, although I am a tourist, I need publicity, I need traffic, I need customers...

Near noon, I ate something on the side of the road and slept with my head covered for half an hour. I continued on my way. During this period, I met a leader and a group of three who came from Zhongyi Township. After asking some questions about my hometown and work, the leader explained my travel extra interested

From the planned equipment to the itinerary, I told you everything; that day was probably the one I talked the most. After the leader drove away, he felt a little thirsty and remembered that he should ask for a bottle of mineral water.

In the afternoon, the altitude of the road gradually increased. I passed by the village and wanted to buy water, but I was stopped by the aunt to take a video, made a face and left quickly. The 4G signal of China Telecom was full on this road. I was still surprised to see the villagers’ proficiency in using mobile phones to surf the Internet. , the road is better than before, and the traffic is more convenient. All these changes are inevitable...

I couldn’t buy water, so I had to climb the slope against the sun. Thanks to God’s blessing, when I saw water flowing on the hillside, I was overjoyed and ran over. I found that it was spring water seeping from the cracks in the rocks. I took it and washed my face. It was very cool. , Immediately refreshed!

When using water in the wild, there are many impurities and bacteria in the river water, so it is best to boil it before drinking! And this kind of water that has been filtered through layers is the cleanest, and you can drink it directly with confidence; watching the trickle overflowing the bottle mouth, my heart is full of joy.

I have ridden the Yushu section of the ancient Tang-Tibet road for five days and climbed three mountains; the Tibet section has ridden for six days so far and climbed five mountains; almost one mountain per day on average. Endless panting, long uphill, silent, no matter how big your temper is, it will be wiped out...

After a short "victory" moment, the breath calmed down, and the front began to enter the boundary of the side dam. At this moment, I was alone, looking at the dancing prayer flags at the pass, and the sun was particularly bright;

Take the mooncake out of the bag and hold it in the palm of your hand. I remember that I was in Gyantse in 15 years, and I was in northern Tibet in 2016. I spent the Mid-Autumn Festival on the road. I write this article on the first day of the new year. I only hope that there will be today every year. Bar……
