Bus schedule from Jiuzhaigou to Songpan then Songpan to Chengdu

I'm planning to be in Jiuzhaigou on 9/9/17 then take the bus to Songpan on 9/11/17, overnight in Songpan then return to Chengdu on 9/12/17.
Would you know the bus schedule from Jiuzhaigou to Songpan on 9/11/17 and
Songpan to Chengdu Xinnanmen on 9/12/17?
How much they are and should I buy the bus tickets in advance (if yes, can I buy online?) or can I just show up at the bus station on the travel dates?
I would appreciate any advices you can give. Thanks.

Jiuzhaigou – Songpan: There are two buses from Jiuzhaigou Bus Station in the city, which depart at 06:40 and 13:00. The ticket fare is CNY49/person. In addition, there is one bus from Jiuzhaigoukou Long-Distance Bus Station, which departs at 07:30. The ticket fare is CNY42/person.
Songpan – Chengdu: There are three buses from Songzhou Bus Station to Chengdu. The bus departs at 06:00, 07:00 and 12:30. The ticket fare is CNY113/person. As I know, this bus may head for Chadianzi Bus Station.
You can ask a Chinese friend to help you book the bus ticket on the official website of SC Bus Ticket, since the website is in Chinese version.

Thank you so much Nancy. That's very useful info. I'm planning some more trips and would really appreciate it if you can help me plan these 3 day trips by giving me the time of departure and return available (assuming we can stay about 3-4 hours at each place) and the ticket cost for the following:
9/6/17: Chengdu Xinnanmen Station ---1.5 hrs to ---> Pingle (round-trip for same day)
9/13/17: Chengdu Xinnanmen Station --- 1.5 hrs to ---> Huanglongxi (day trip)
9/17/17: Chengdu Xinnanmen Station --1.5hrs to --->  Mt. Qingcheng (day trip)
What time would be the departure time be available for these trips:
9/14/17: Chengdu Xinnanmen Station-- 2hrs to ---> Leshan Giant Buddha
(does the bus drops you right close to the Giant Buddha itself? If not, how do we get there?
then after 2 hours, we probably want to head to Emeishan. Is it easy to find a taxi to drive us directly to the Happy Hotel in Emeishan? (the taxi estimate quoted me 53 mins and cost 79-101CNY, is it accurate as I read somewhere that smaller vehicles don't have access to the expressway and might take 4 hrs) If not, what's the best way for us to get to Emeishan Baoguo Bus station/Happy Hotel after visiting the Giant Buddha? Returning to Chengdu, what's the latest bus departure time and fare for:
On 9/16/17: Emeishan Baoguo bus station ---- 3hrs to ---> Chengdu Xinnanmen
Thank you so much in advance,
Madeleine

I am so sorry that I cannot find the bus schedule from Pingle to Xinnanmen. As I know, the last bus back to Xinnanmen may depart at around 17:00 – 18:00.
2. To Huanglongxi: It operates from 07:50 to 18:00 with the frequency of around 30 minutes. The ticket fare is CNY16/person.
The last bus from Huanglongxi back to Xinnanmen is at around 18:00.
3. To Qingchengshan: This bus heads for Qingchengqianshan Stop at 08:10, 08:50, 09:30 and 14:10. The ticket fare is CNY25/person.

5. It is easy to catch a taxi from Leshan to Emeishan, and the fare you listed is reasonable. Besides, you can also take a direct bus from Leshan Giant Buddha to Emeishan Transport Center. The bus departs from 08:00 to 17:30. The ticket fare is CNY12/person. Upon arrival, you are only about 750 meters to Baoguo Temple.
6. As I know, the last bus from Baoguo Temple to Xinnanmen departs at around 18:00. The ticket fare may be CNY46/person.
