Yao Maoshu, the first person drifting on the Yangtze River.

In the steep Tongtianhe Gorge at the source of the Yangtze River, the silence for thousands of years was broken by an impassioned Sichuan chant. A red rubber dinghy rushed down from the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, with five golden characters flashing on both sides of the boat-"Descendants of the Dragon". A young man in a red life jacket, with sculls in his hand, stared at the torrent in front of him with stern eyes, calmly drove a rubber dinghy, rushing left and right in the roaring river and flying straight down. The echo of the canyons on both sides of the strait echoes with the sonorous singing, which makes people feel that this is not a boat in its own way, but like a thousand boats racing against each other. ...

The surge caused by waves and the vicissitudes of the Yangtze River have been flowing in China for 40 million years. Like the ancient Yellow River, it has nurtured the great Chinese nation and generations of hardworking, intelligent and brave descendants. People thank the Yangtze River, people admire it, people praise it ... However, for thousands of years, no one dared to drift along the Yangtze River. The Yangtze River is a dragon, a beast, which is sometimes sick and sometimes slow, stretching for 6380 kilometers; The evil waves are amazing, leaking and strong! Danger! No wonder some people talk about ginger discoloration. However, the Chinese nation has never been short of heroes. Look at the young man in the river. He paddled the flying waves and the rapids down from running all the way, the source of the Yangtze River.

Who is this who dares to take such a natural risk? Dare to break the eternal record?

His name is Yao Maoshu.

Yao Maoshu was born in Leshan City, Sichuan Province. Maoshu grew up by the Yangtze River, and he liked to chase waves in the rapids since he was a child, and he had a particularly deep affection for the Yangtze River. With the growth of age and the deepening of experience, his understanding of the Yangtze River has deepened step by step. He feels that people know too little about the Yangtze River, and he always wants to do something about it. ...

1979, after reading the report about Naoko, a famous Japanese explorer, exploring the North Pole by planting trees and drifting alone on the Amazon River, Yao Maoshu expressed admiration for the explorer's brave adventurous spirit and pioneering spirit. At this moment, he had a bold idea-drifting and exploring the Yangtze River!

Yao Maoshu is determined to drift along the Yangtze River. He immediately devoted himself to the preparation of drifting: he mastered the information of geology, hydrology, climate, customs and other aspects of the Yangtze River. He decided to reach the source of the Yangtze River 1985 in mid-August and start the Yangtze River drifting exploration. 1June, 985 12 10, Yao Maoshu crossed a meadow full of marshes, climbed Xuefeng Mountain, and spent five days and five nights in the desolate and cold area of Wan Li. After many hardships, he finally reached the source of the Yangtze River. At 4 o'clock on the afternoon of June 20, Uncle Mao pushed the rubber dinghy with the words "descendants of the dragon" written on both sides into the water. The next morning, they arrived at a canyon called Sandy. Drifting for three days and two nights, the journey is 375 kilometers. At noon on the 23rd, they arrived at Tuotuo, the first small village in the source area of the Yangtze River, and completed the first stage of drifting plan. On July 2, Yao Maoshu went into the water again and went to the Tiantong section of the Yangtze River alone. On July 6, he rested on the way and rowed forward again. In the afternoon, continuing drifting, he managed to break through the smoke barrier and hang in the canyon. On the evening of July 7, he stayed on a small continent in the middle of the river. July 10, drifting to Qidukou. Below the ferry is the lower reaches of the Tongtian River. The peaks on the banks of the river are close together, and there are many dangerous beaches in the valleys of the river, and the water potential is even greater. Drifting of hairy trees is more dangerous and difficult. 16 at 4: 00 pm on July 16, Uncle Mao finally crossed the Tongtian River, successfully completed the voyage of the upper reaches of the Yangtze River 1 187 km, and arrived at Zhimenda, Yushu Prefecture, Qinghai Province. On the morning of July 23rd 10: 47, Yao Maoshu bid farewell to Zhimen University and sailed into the choppy Jinsha River. On this day, Yao Maoshu broke through more than a dozen dangerous beaches in the rapids, closed the boat at 8 pm and stayed on a cliff. Before going to bed, he wrote down the drifting diary of the last day. However, something unexpected happened. On July 24th, Yao Maoshu, our drifting warrior, was killed when he was drifting in the Tong Jia Canyon in the upper reaches of Jinsha River.

In the 5,000-year history of China, Lapras's first hero, the son of another loyal and brave Chinese nation, gave his young life for the dignity of the motherland and the pride of the dragon.

Yao Maoshu left us and found his home in the Yangtze River. He is like the first drop of spring water melted from the source of the Yangtze River glacier, which flows into thousands of rivers and turns into rolling waves, rushing to the sea and the world with overwhelming power. ...
