Facing the beautiful autumn light, Zhang Shaofei thought to himself: How great it would be to be able to play with some of his childhood friends for a while...
Once, when they were playing catch-up soldiers in their yard, the paparazzi saw that they were about to be caught by Zhang Shaofei and ran like arrows towards the hill behind the village...
Don't tell me, there is a saying called "God follows people's wishes". Just when Zhang Shaofei had a sudden thought, Lu Huilan was chasing him.
"Wait for me..." Lu Huilan also shouted and chased Zhang Shaofei.
"Brother A Fei, look, the clusters of flowers over there are blooming so brilliantly..." Lu Huilan skipped over like she did at Qianniu Mountain last time, holding Zhang Shaofei's hand.
Zhang Shaofei picked one and put it on Lu Huilan's bun. He couldn't help but said: "Flowers are given to beautiful women, and beautiful women are even more beautiful with flowers!"
Lu Huilan stroked her hair lovingly and said incomprehensively: "What kind of flower is this?"
"This flower is called Jie Yuhua." Zhang Shaofei said with a pun.
Lu Huilan quickly took the flowers off her bun.
"Jieyuhua? The name of this flower is quite interesting. Why is it called Jieyuhua?" Lu Huilan looked at the flower in her hand and asked knowingly.
"This...Jieyuhua means we are going to collect herbs now." Zhang Shaofei took the opportunity to avoid the topic.
Zhang Shaofei pointed to the small hill not far away: "There are the mountain herbs we want over there. Come on, let's go there and collect the herbs."
"Okay." Just as Lu Huilan stood up and wanted to leave, her left leg cramped again. I had no choice but to sit down again.
Zhang Shaofei had no choice but to massage her as usual, and Lu Huilan suddenly felt much more relaxed.
The facts told him: Massaging acupuncture points alone was not enough. Lu Huilan was chasing him just now, but mental therapy was working, and it needed to be treated both internally and externally.
"Where are we going to find Clematis and Shenjincao?" Zhang Shaofei raised his eyes and looked around, his bright eyes pointed at the cave in front of the mountain pass, and said loudly: "Look at that mountain pass..."
She followed Zhang Shaofei's gaze and looked forward. What she saw in front of her was the cave in front of the mountain pass. There was aura and vitality everywhere, and a large field of mountain herbs came into view...
Suddenly, the wind and clouds suddenly change, the sun shines brightly in the sky, a strong wind blows, a thunderbolt breaks out on a clear sky, and lightning flashes and thunder breaks out...
Zhang Shaofei was startled, picked up Lu Huilan on his back, and ran towards the cave.
Lu Huilan was on Zhang Shaofei's back. She was shy and nervous, but also felt an unprecedented sense of happiness flowing through her body. Her heart felt like a deer, and it was about to jump out of her chest. She squeezed Zhang Shaofei's body tightly with her legs. , holding his arms with both hands, intoxicated in unparalleled happiness...
There was a "thunder" and lightning pierced the dark cloudy sky. Lu Huilan suddenly woke up from the thunder. I saw her charming expression, eyes like autumn water, and a blush on her face, and she shyly buried her head on Zhang Shaofei's back...
Arriving at the cave, Zhang Shaofei hurriedly put down Lu Huilan and said, "God is not kind to me. I have to quickly pick those mountain herbs before the heavy rain comes."
After a while, Zhang Shaofei collected the mountain herbs and returned to the cave. He found a stone and ground it on another stone into a paste. He used his palms to heat it and applied it to Lu Huilan's calf. He then took off his belt from his body. Bandage the calf.
Lu Huilan looked at the belt in Zhang Shaofei's hand curiously.
"This is the belt used by men practicing martial arts in our countryside to tie their waists." Zhang Shaofei explained to her.
"Oh, it turns out to be a man's girdle." This was the first time she heard it, so it wasn't surprising.
…
After Zhang Shaofei bandaged Lu Huilan's calf, he was about to tell them some anecdotes about his martial arts practice since he was a child. Suddenly, a strong wind blew, sand and rocks flew, and autumn rain poured down.
The cave was hazy, the mountains and fields were raining heavily, and the whole world was covered in rain. The inside and outside of the cave became two different worlds, just like the passionate love between Zhang Shaofei and her. But he dared not eat the forbidden fruit.
…
The sunlight shines into the cave, like a bright lamp, illuminating the cave as if it were daytime.
Let's go, it's sunny. "After that, Zhang Shaofei pulled Lu Huilan out of the cave.
When he got out of the cave, Zhang Shaofei's eyes couldn't help but light up. I saw a lot of tourists on the winding mountain road. Among the crowds, men and women dressed in festive costumes passed by them laughing and joking.
Zhang Shaofei couldn't help but ask Lu Huilan: "Alan sister, why is the mountain so busy today?"
"Oh, you forgot even if you didn't ask me, today is the "Azalea Festival". "Lu Huilan scratched her head and said.
At this time, an uncle came from behind. He looked at Zhang Shaofei and the others and chatted with them: "Where are you... from? You don't even know that today is the Water Splashing Festival and the day to go to Taijiang to splash water. Bar?"
Zhang Shaofei said embarrassedly: "Uncle, I'm from Taishan. I really don't know about this festival."
"Now that you have entered the mountain, you should go and have a look." After the uncle said this, he couldn't help but look at Zhang Shaofei and Lu Huilan. "There is a saying among us mountain people, 'Even if you miss the wedding date, don't miss it. I missed the Taijiang Water Splashing Festival. The Taijiang Water Splashing Festival is really the most lively day of the year.”
After listening to the uncle's wonderful and attractive introduction, Lu Huilan suddenly felt eager to leave. She said happily: "Brother A Fei, why don't we go to Taijiang to participate in the Water Splashing Festival!"
Zhang Shaofei and Lu Huilan clasped their hands together and said loudly: "Okay! What a great suggestion!" After saying that, they wanted to join the crowd in front. But then he thought about it: he still had to collect medicine and go back, so he turned to Lu Huilan and said angrily, "What's good! I don't want to think about it, but I still need to collect medicine and go back. Also, don't you have leg cramps? I think you are Mustard greens in October—they are flirtatious.”
Lu Huilan was scolded by Zhang Shaofei like a parent. She pursed her lips behind his back, made a face, and followed him to collect medicine.
"Brother A Fei, sister A Lan, so you are here?" Zhang Shaofei turned around and saw that it was Liang Shuilian and another young woman standing behind him.
Liang Shuilian introduced: "This is Brother A Fei, Sister Alan, and this is Liang Guihua from Taijiang Village."
Guihua said to Zhang Shaofei: "Brother A Fei, it's rare that the Water Splashing Festival is so lively today. Can we go play splashing water together?"
Zhang Shaofei looked at Lu Huilan and said, "We are going to collect mountain herbs." Zhang Shaofei looked embarrassed.
Lu Huilan said with a smile: "Brother A Fei, you don't have to be embarrassed. Today is the Water Splashing Festival. Let's go play together and splash water, and then go collect mountain herbs."
Zhang Shaofei couldn't bear to offend them, so he had to agree to accompany them.
They finally arrived at Taijiang, and saw a sea of people there. In the rolling red dust, there were men and women, some holding wooden shells, some holding water guns, noisy and splashing water...
"Brother A Fei, let's go play splashing water first." Osmanthus invited warmly.
Zhang Shaofei looked at Osmanthus a little embarrassed and said, "I am an outsider after all. It would be inconvenient to join in and splash water..."
Osmanthus hurriedly said: "Brother A Fei, why do you have such concerns? The people here are very hospitable, so don't worry."
"This..." Zhang Shaofei hesitated.
"Then let's go rafting. There are people from all over the place. It's very easy to meet acquaintances." Liang Shuilian suggested when she saw Zhang Shaofei was hesitant.
"I'm an amateur at rafting. If I get washed away by a waterfall, you have to save me!" Zhang Shaofei smiled at her.
Liang Shuilian said seriously: "Brother Afei, don't worry, we are rafting here. Every bamboo raft is manned by a rafter, so it is very safe."
"Haha! I thought it was like what Uncle Lei said, like the Eight Immortals playing rafting - everyone is minding their own business!"
"What do you mean by 'Eight Immortals drifting - each looking after his own business'?" Osmanthus looked at Zhang Shaofei and asked unclearly.
So, Zhang Shaofei recounted to them the story of "The Eight Immortals Playing Rafting" told by Uncle Lei:
One summer, the Eight Immortals came to Kunlun Mountain, a towering mountain in the clouds, and had a great time.
Today, Tieguai Li drank a lot of wine in the heaven. He was hot and drunk. He looked at the stream singing joyful songs rushing down from the top of the mountain. A thought suddenly came to his mind, and he said: "We crossed the East China Sea from Penglai that day. , riding the wind is so comfortable and happy. Today, in this canyon, the water level of the stream is so different, why don't we change the way and have fun?"
He Xiangu pointed at Tie Guai Tie's head and said, "You, after drinking too much, you have all your imagination. What other crazy ideas have you come up with now?"
Tieguai Li wiped the remaining wine from the corner of his mouth: "People often say that with wine, there are hundreds of poems. Most of my thoughts after drinking wine are wonderful."
Lu Dongbin: "What is your fantasy today? Don't you want us to bungee jump from the top of the mountain to the bottom of the mountain?"
"No," Tieguai Li waved his hand and then made a downward motion, "Let's go rafting!"
"Rafting?" I've only heard of rafting in the sea, but never heard of rafting in the mountains. The suggestion suddenly made by Tieguai Li, who was half awake and half drunk, was indeed novel.
Zhang Guolao said disdainfully: "Tieguai Li, did you drink too much today and make you dizzy, confused, and an idiot talking in your sleep? Please note, this is a mountain, not the sea!"
When Tieguai Li saw that Zhang Guolao had not finished speaking, he was scolded by Zhang Guolao. He raised his face and said, "Hey, Zhang Guolao, I have always respected you, but today you offended me as soon as you opened your mouth. Why do you call me an idiot for no reason?" , and you said I was talking in my sleep?"
Zhang Guolao said firmly: "When we were in Penglai, the East China Sea was endless, so we could drift. Now you say you want to drift in the mountains. Isn't this just a dream? What is it?"
Cao Guojiu, who has always been an orthodox man, pointed at Lin Tao who was making a loud noise and started talking to him: "Brother, if you are right, this is not the sea. Do you want us to go rafting on the forest sea?"
When Tieguai Li heard that Zhang Guolao and Cao Guojiu had objections to his proposal, he said dissatisfiedly: "You two old people, your brains are always bad at turning. Can't you come up with new ideas?"
Lu Dongbin interrupted: "Tieguai Li, tell me your new idea."
He Xiangu blinked her bright eyes and asked, "Tieguai Li, how do you plan to come?"
