Li wangxiang jiuzhai adventure

How far is the beautiful scenery of Jiuzhaigou from me? Close at hand, but far away.

On August 8, 20 17, at 8: 00 am, I set off from Chengdu by tourist bus and went to Jiuzhaigou with joy and excitement.

Due to the winding mountain road, the traffic is busy and the speed is slow. 2 1 afternoon 19 our bus has just arrived in zhangzha town, Jiuzhaigou county after a long journey of 13 hours, and will soon arrive at the hotel.

I didn't feel the earthquake because the car was moving and shaking. However, outside the window, the street lamp is shaking and the car in front is shaking. The driver said, "Earthquake!" "Immediately stepped on the brakes.

The street lamp went out soon, and the cell phone signal was interrupted immediately. There are 46 people in our car. The tour guide (he is from Jiuzhaigou and his name is Solangdoji) told everyone to sit quietly in the car and not to run around. Then he went to the front by himself to check the road conditions. We waited silently in anxiety and worry, and time seemed to have stopped completely.

I don't know how long it took Dorje to come back. He said, "You can't go any further. This road is full of stones falling from the mountain. Even if you are sent to the hotel, they dare not let you live. " Everyone is going to spend the night in the car. "He told the driver to turn around and drive to a more open place. It's not actually open. I made a visual observation. The mountain on the left side of the road is about 50 meters away from us. If a big stone rolls down, the consequences are unpredictable. On the right side of the road is a ravine about four meters wide. There are big stones scattered at the bottom of the ravine, with a big drop and extremely fast water flow. But there is no way. Everyone got off the bus and took out their coats, food, etc. From their suitcases and then back to the car.

At this time, more than an hour has passed since the earthquake, and my heart is filled with anxiety: my parents, daughters, brothers and sisters, and other relatives and friends who know that I am in Sichuan will definitely contact me if they get news of the earthquake, but they can't contact me. How anxious should they be? Will the daughter go crazy? Will mom have a hypertensive attack? I'm sure my daughter got the news because she is studying for a master's degree in Seismological Bureau of China. Afterwards, I learned that after the earthquake, their WeChat groups were all blown up, and the Seismological Bureau of China held a meeting overnight and sent a large number of people to various disaster areas (an earthquake also occurred in Bortala Mongolian Autonomous Prefecture, Xinjiang).

Time passes slowly in anxiety. Suddenly, when we heard someone on the phone, we immediately went forward to ask. It turns out that his mobile phone is Unicom and has a signal! Without much thought, I quickly borrowed his mobile phone and sent a short message to my daughter to report her safety. My daughter replied quickly and informed my parents. Poor mother has been crying, and her daughter, who has been in pain for nearly two hours, is about to collapse.

I was relieved a little, so I got off the bus to exercise my legs and feet. I don't know when, the vehicles parked on the road have already queued up. I walked to the front and found that there were not many stones falling in this section, but there was a long crack on the road that extended all the way forward, and then a big stone appeared on the side of the road. I was hesitating to go on, when I suddenly saw a dog not far from the other side of the road, quietly coming towards me. I quickly turned around and quickly got back to my bus.

I was exhausted and didn't eat dinner. Anything could happen. I knew I had to conserve my strength, so I drank some water, put on my coat and closed my eyes to rest. However, it is impossible to sleep well. You always take a nap and wake up. Outside the window, I saw traffic safety cars and ambulances shuttling back and forth. In the early morning 1 half past ten, someone shouted: "The mobile phone has a signal!" Everyone took out their mobile phones, sent messages and made phone calls. My WeChat message also came to my face, and my daughters, classmates, colleagues and other friends conveyed their worries and greetings. At this critical moment, looking at these wechat, I felt a warm current in my heart. I am eager to reply to you, but WeChat still can't be sent out.

At this time, we learned through mobile news that our town of Zhangzha was the epicenter of the earthquake! The magnitude is 7! At that time, the death toll was 5, and more than 160 people were injured (the number has been increasing since then). Only then did we realize that we had just passed death by! A few minutes earlier or a few minutes later, if our bus changes the driving section casually, it may crush us under the rock!

Someone said there was a small shop nearby, so we went to buy some bread and milk. The shopkeeper said that everything on the shelves fell to the ground during the earthquake, and he was unstable and almost fell. Others watched the nearby hills pour down, making his legs and feet weak. ...

I went back to the car with food, but I had no appetite. At three o'clock in the morning, the tour guide suggested that this place was unsafe and told the driver to continue to retreat and drive to Jiuzhaigou County. This road is really dangerous and breathtaking. The road is full of stones rolling down the mountain, and some cars smashed or even overturned by stones, as well as broken street lamps and overturned guardrails. Outside the houses on the roadside, there are people lying on the ground covered with quilts. Due to the narrow roads and too many vehicles, congestion is constantly caused, which is almost five steps and three stops. During driving, drivers should pay close attention to the mountain conditions on both sides to avoid secondary disasters such as mudslides and landslides. Contrary to us, in addition to ambulances and traffic safety vehicles, there are several large forklifts used to remove stones from road areas. We stared nervously at the window and were scared all the way. It is a short journey of more than 30 kilometers from Zhangzha Town to Jiuzhaigou County, and it took us two hours. The driver parked his car in front of a row of low-rise houses, and the tour guide said that the most dangerous section had passed, so everyone could sleep in peace. Let's sleep and wake up for a while.

Asked when the tour guide can return to Chengdu, he said that no one knows, depending on the road conditions, maybe the same day, maybe three or five days, only fate. Near six o'clock, the tour guide and the driver discussed whether to leave for Chengdu at once, because as time went on, more and more vehicles were evacuated from Jiuzhaigou, and the road would become more and more blocked. The tour guide immediately got off the bus and asked the traffic police about the road conditions, and got a passable answer. So, around six o'clock, the driver started the throttle.

Facts have proved that this action is correct. Our country's post-disaster emergency response capability is super strong, and traffic control has been implemented. Only medical ambulances, fire engines and rescue vehicles kept coming in, so our way back was fairly smooth. Soon after we set out, hunger finally spread. I ate milk and bread. At noon, the tour guide arranged for everyone to have a good lunch in a roadside restaurant. At four o'clock in the afternoon, we finally arrived in Chengdu.

At present, the death toll has increased to 25 and more than 400 people have been injured. The real situation is many times more serious than what I saw. After all, I only saw the situation along the expressway, but I didn't see the scene of a crowded place.

Late at night on August 10, when I was sitting in the hotel watching the disaster report on TV, the tears accumulated in my eyes for 50 hours finally rolled down.

Mourn for the earthquake victims! Pray for the injured to recover soon and go home soon! May the post-disaster reconstruction work go smoothly!

I would also like to express my deep gratitude to our tour guide Solangdoji and the driver. Dorje's home is in Jiuzhaigou. After the earthquake, he lost contact with his family and was very anxious, but he never left us until he sent us back to Chengdu. Drivers who have been driving nervously for a long time are already exhausted, but they have no complaints.

Someone asked me that I didn't see the beautiful scenery when I went to Jiuzhai (our original itinerary was to visit Jiuzhai Scenic Area on August 9 and Huanglong Scenic Area on June 5438+00). Is it a pity? It is false to say no regrets. However, when my identity has changed from a tourist to a survivor, how can I look at this problem so simply? I did miss the beautiful scenery, but more importantly, I also missed death! I think I will live a good life after the robbery, because I know what to cherish and what to laugh it off.

Others asked me, after life and death, will I eat, drink and spend money in time, and how can I be happy? I think this is indeed a problem worthy of serious consideration, but it is definitely not about how to eat, drink and be merry in time, because it will not let me die with peace of mind and no regrets when I meet something. What we should ponder deeply is how to find a way of life, which will make us live more valuable, enrich and deepen our lives, and make us leave this world with less regrets.

My friend brother Rongshan sent me a message saying: God left you here to spread love or do something.

I'm impressed. If everyone works hard, society will progress; Everyone loves each other, and society will be beautiful. If I can practice hard all my life, then this earthquake is a disaster and a redemption for me.

Pray for the people in the disaster area again!
