People there lived a rather poor life. The children seldom went out of the village. Li decided to teach in that village at once.

The children have to climb five wooden ladders to reach the school of Erping. They spend the week there before returning home for the weekend. “Walking on the wooden ladders is really dangerous. You can just put half of your foot in the narrowest place.Behind the ladders is the deep valley.(山谷)”

A year later, as the number of students increased, Li Guilin began to look for a new teacher. When the summer holiday was over, he couldn’t find one yet. So he advised his wife Lu Jianfen to join him.

Till now ,they have been teaching in the village for more than 18 years.Over the past years, they have taught 149 students,22 of them were from the schools of other areas because of the two kind teachers. “I’m the son of farmers,” says Li, “I know that education is the best way for a poor mountain area to change.”The couple(夫妇)will go on working at this school to help more children walk out of the mountains into happy and bright futures.
