《徐霞客游记·滇游日记十一》
我于是拉着过路人询问去沙朗的路，有的说仍旧下坡，顺着去普击的大路就到了，是省里通行的路，这条路绕但好走；有的说再上坡，从牛圈哨分出的岔路往里走，是这一带人所走的直达小路，这条路近但难问路。
余因执途人询沙朗道，或云仍下坡，自普击大道而去，省中通行之路也，其路迂而易行；或云更上坡，自牛圈哨分岐而入，此间间捷径达之路也，其路近而难知。
So I stopped a passerby and asked for directions to Shalang. Some said that they still went down the slope and followed the road to Pujie to arrive. It was the road used by the province, and this road was roundabout but easy to walk; some said to go up the slope again, from the fork in the road from Niuquan哨Go inside, it is a small road that goes directly to this area, this road is close but difficult to ask for directions.
