Starting from Xichang at about eight o'clock in the morning, the weather is clear and the clouds are a little thick, but there is a large area of sight. Get off the expressway in Mianning and take National Highway 248 to Kowloon. I walked this road once when I went to Xinjiang, Tibet in September, 20 18, and I felt very good, so I decided to go again.
In the fields on both sides of Ruoshui Town Road in Mianning County, there are not only green seedlings, but also dozens of egrets. Some are looking for food, others are playing with each other. Full of original pastoral scenery, which is also a better embodiment of the ecological environment.
In the process of climbing the mountain, the blue sky and white clouds and the roads in Qingshan Village form a quiet and harmonious picture.
This 248 national highway has a very good pavement, but there are also many bends. You can know how many turns there are from the navigation down the mountain.
After the end of the mountain, after Jiangkou Town, Mianning County, you arrive at Yalong River. As the rainy season hasn't come yet, the river is very shallow, and the stones at the bottom of the river jump out like they have grown taller and are squeezed together into a beach. Although the river is shallow, it is full of water and its color is very eye-catching.
From then on, the 248 national highway along the river, green mountains and green waters, blue sky and white clouds. This color scale is pleasing to the eye.
Occasionally, there is a small village across the river. They can see green mountains and green waters every day, and they must remember homesickness more.
The mountains on both sides of the Yalong River Gorge are sometimes wider and sometimes crowded together. Although the road surface is good, there are many falling rocks, and many of them are relatively sharp stones. I quickly verified it for everyone. [Cover your face]
When driving on a relatively straight road, a fast pickup truck on the opposite side suddenly occupied my road because it was avoiding falling rocks on its driving route. I quickly made a small direction to the side, and the two wheels on the right pressed against the stones falling by the roadside. I only heard a slight noise and felt my right side fall. Looking aside, both wheels are flat. Ten thousand grass mud horses ran by in my heart. After all, there is only one spare tire ... for the first time in many years, there is a flat tire on the road, and it rings twice at a time. Hehe, as it turns out, walking by the river often won't get your shoes wet. Contact friends in Mianning county quickly. Friends are very powerful. Contact the repairman quickly.
In the process of waiting for the host, you can't lose your good mood. On this day, the clouds and mountains look beautiful at first glance.
After the tire repair master arrived, he assessed the situation, first replaced the spare tire with the hopeless right front wheel, then propped up the car with my jack, removed the right rear wheel that still had hope of remedy and put it in the carriage of his pickup truck. I got on his car and walked back more than ten kilometers to his tire repair shop in Jiangkou Town.
Back to the place where the photo was taken just now, the green hills and clear waters and stone beaches are still there, but the tires are not the tires just now, and the white clouds in the sky are getting thicker and thicker. Compared with just now, it's pretty good.
After the tire was repaired, there was a big bulge. Whether I can make it to Jiulong County, I have been playing drums, but there is nothing I can do. And the tire mender won't send me back, because there is no one else in his shop. I have been waiting for nearly forty minutes, and no bus has passed by. I don't think I can afford it. Finally, I had to park my car on the road. A kind Yi guy drove a pickup truck with a Great Wall cannon and pulled me and the mended tire to my car. After I loaded the bulging tires, I was finally ready to go. 1 1: 30 It's been three hours since the tire burst. Fortunately, the temporary problems have been basically solved and we can continue to set out.
Because that bulging tire doesn't dare to drive too fast, I'm afraid it will burst when it meets a stone or a pit again. Then I'll be miserable and can only keep driving at a constant speed of about 50 yards. The scenery in the canyon is still beautiful. I occasionally stop at a parked place to take pictures and look at the bulging tires.
On the way through Miansha Bay town, there are many houses and shops. This is a lively market town on the Yalong River. After this market town, it soon entered the territory of Jiulong County, Ganzi Prefecture.
The mountains on both sides face each other, as if cut by this river and this road.
There is an elegant waterfall in Shanwei on the other side of the river, but unfortunately there is no bridge across it, so it is impossible to get a close look.
If the flowing waterfall is feminine, then this towering stone peak is full of masculinity.
I don't know when Yalong River quietly left the highway. After crossing Wulaxi Township and entering Naiqu Town, the scenery is getting more and more beautiful. Especially Tibetan dwellings, it is definitely a beautiful scenery. I only love those with stone walls and blue tiles, or concentrated by the river at the foot of the mountain, or hidden in the Woods, one integrated mass.
There is even a century-old Populus simonii, with a tall and stout trunk, standing by the stream and standing out of its own scenery.
There are several floors of big fans on the roadside, which is spectacular. I wonder what they are for.
The green water in Chi Mo makes people feel that mountains and water are almost jadeite.
I saw Xigu Reservoir near Jiulong County. The water level is shallow, but the wind around the reservoir is strong. When I stood there, I felt I was going to be blown away.
Through the Kowloon Tunnel, we will soon reach Kowloon County. Roadside street lamps are very distinctive. The yak holds the lamp.
After entering the county seat, it became a dragon street lamp.
When I entered the city, the first thing I did was to find a tire shop. The store changed two new tires for me in less than half an hour and put the spare tire back in place. This is finally practical.
After dinner, it suddenly began to rain, and few people walked around the National Square in the rain.
After shopping for a while, I found an ideal campsite on the riverside road in the urban area, which is not only quiet, but also has a public toilet across the road.
It's raining in Mao Mao. I hope it will rain in Liangshan, where we are still nervous about forest protection and fire prevention.
