He claimed to be "the craziest person in the world" and walked more than 300,000 kilometers on foot. What happened afterwards?

There is a saying in Farewell My Concubine that you can't live without madness. This sentence is the most appropriate to describe Xie Jianguang. This man, who has only attended school for five years in his life, wrote a book based on his personal experience of traveling around the world. Not only that, he is known as the "father of donkey friends", and he also showed all friends who like to travel a textbook-like journey. So what kind of story does he have?

1959, Xie Jianguang was born in a very ordinary family. When he was only in the fifth grade, he was forced to drop out of school and go home to help his parents with farm work. Later, his parents arranged for him to learn from a respected old carpenter. Xie Jianguang's parents have always wanted his son to learn a trade. If you have an iron rice bowl, you won't starve to death in the future.

However, Xie Jianguang has his own independent thoughts. He felt that since he could not understand the widely praised world from books, he had to measure every inch of land with his feet. So he took 150 yuan and his own Mu car, and resolutely set foot on his poor road. Although there is only 150 yuan in his pocket, Xie Jianguang has his own way to make money. He collects garbage for a living all the way, but the garbage in others' eyes is a rare treasure in his eyes.

Maybe it's just a plastic bottle, maybe it's just a piece of scrap iron, maybe it's just an old spring, but it can satisfy his daily food and clothing. When he is busy with farming, he can also help his fellow villagers transplant rice seedlings on the road and give him a little reward. At the most embarrassing time, he can stay in the sugarcane field for five days. Although the material conditions are never plentiful, Xie Jianguang has always been a person with extremely rich spiritual world. He never chose to give up because of the difficulties and obstacles in front of him.

From 1983 to 1996, most rural roads in China are dirt roads. At that time, there was no endless asphalt road, so Xie Jianguang had to push his wooden cart and stumble all the way. Although the journey is very tiring, Xie Jianguang will still feel comfortable and happy when he sees different customs.

Although it is not easy to earn money and Xie Jianguang is usually frugal, he is never stingy in buying books. During his 35 years abroad, he read nearly 10000 books. After reading the book, he also likes to give it to the right people, so that more people who have no chance to learn can learn, which is also a kind of goodwill for him. Xie Jianguang is a person who loves reading. He has made many friends who love reading.

His friends also helped him sort out his travel notes and published a book, and he also gained a large number of loyal fans online. Gradually, this once incomprehensible "the craziest in the world" seems to have many intimate friends. If it weren't for 20 18, 59-year-old Xie Jianguang might have stayed in Heihe, Heilongjiang forever. Maybe he will publish the second and third books. ...

But at that time, Xie Jianguang's lower limbs had been edema for half a month. At first, he didn't agree and didn't go to see a doctor in time, so his illness got worse and worse, and later he even developed to the point of poor breathing and fatigue. Although Xie Jianguang dialed the emergency number of 120 in time, he left this beautiful world forever.
