To help protect the wonder,Mei volunteered to walk along the wall each day to check its condition,encouraging other villagers to join him.“Of course,it might be dangerous to hike in the mountains by myself,so I always tap the grassy ground along the way with a wooden stick,scaring wild animals away,” Mei said.
