The next morning, when Wang Shaoxiang woke him up, the rising sun was already approaching the window.
After Zhang Shaofei put away Zhang Daocheng's gift of silver, he went out to finish breakfast in a hurry and said to Wang Shaoxiang, "Mom, I went to collect medicine."
Wang Shaoxiang took the small bamboo basket and small hoe placed at the corner of the door, handed them to Zhang Shaofei, and said: "Fei'er, go and come back early..."
"Yeah." Zhang Shaofei nodded, picked up the small bamboo basket, took the small hoe, and went out to collect herbs in the mountains.
Zhang Shaofei had just arrived at the pass that he must pass when entering the mountain. The passionate and beautiful Lu Huilan had been waiting here for a long time.
When Lu Huilan saw Zhang Shaofei from a distance, she waved her hands and shouted loudly: "Brother A Fei, I'm waiting for you here!"
When Zhang Shaofei saw Lu Huilan, he was like a graceful orchid in an empty valley.
Zhang Shaofei hurriedly greeted him, and the wind brought a faint fragrance...
Is this unfamiliar yet a bit like the fragrance he has smelled there?
"Ah, cornfield!" Zhang Shaofei patted his head, remembered, and couldn't help but said loudly.
Smelling this intoxicating fragrance of rouge, Zhang Shaofei couldn't help but feel refreshed and in a good mood. Suddenly a poem "Orchid grows in the empty valley, for whom does the fragrance come?" suddenly flashed in his mind.
Zhang Shaofei took advantage of the excitement and stepped forward. Seeing no one around, he secretly took Lu Huilan's hand, looked at her pink face, and blurted out: "Alan sister, you are like the weather today. The sky is high and the clouds are light, and the fragrance is fragrant." The breeze is refreshing..."
Lu Huilan looked at Zhang Shaofei lovingly and said coquettishly: "Brother A Fei, after a few months of separation, you have become more and more talented!"
Zhang Shaofei said excitedly: "Alan sister, it's rare that the autumn weather is crisp today. You and I go up the mountain to collect herbs and take a look at the distance. If we don't go crazy, we will..." Zhang Shaofei originally wanted to say, "There is no chance," but as soon as the words came to his lips, , feeling something was wrong, he swallowed it back and immediately walked towards the mountain like a gust of wind.
Lu Huilan chased and asked: "Brother A Fei, just...what!"
Zhang Shaofei smiled at Lu Huilan and said tactfully, "I'm old! Sister Alan, come up and chase me!"
Zhang Shaofei's heroic words suddenly ignited Lu Huilan's passion. So, she ran straight to Zhang Shaofei like a jumping bird...
The two of them walked through a gravel path and zigzagged up the rugged mountain road. The sound of a gurgling stream drifted down from the mountain. Sometimes it was the sound of gurgling water, sometimes it was the sound of a waterfall hitting their faces...
"How beautiful the Yunwu Mountains are in the golden autumn! Blue sky, sea of clouds, brilliant mountain flowers, densely dyed forests, and picturesque autumn colors. The mountains are full of ripe tweeds. It's a unique style!" Zhang Shaofei, who was walking in front, said with emotion.
Ah, this ripe Nianzi, this original Nianzi that grows in the deep mountains and old forests and absorbs the essence of the sun, moon, sunshine, rain and dew! Zhang Shaofei didn't feel strange at all.
The scene made him emotional, and he couldn't help but think of the passing years of innocence, and his mother who had worked so hard to raise him...
I remember when I was a child, every autumn, whenever Zhang Shaofei's father taught him to read the "Four Books and Five Classics", and he recited them word for word, his mother would go to the mountains to cut grass and pick back a big bag of twists to reward him.
He saw that every time his mother saw him eating, a happy smile would appear on her face...
Suddenly, a gust of breeze blew, "It's so cool!" Lu Huilan shouted, waking Zhang Shaofei out of his memories, and a door-shaped pass appeared in front of him.
Zhang Shaofei looked at the col and said to her: "Last time my grandma and I went to the West Sea to seek refuge with Mr. Pei, we passed by here. My grandma said that this col is called Fengmen Ao. As long as I sit down and rest in this mountain col, there will be bursts of energy. The breeze blows, and the sweat dissipates and the heat dissipates for a moment, making you feel extremely cool."
When Lu Huilan heard what Zhang Shaofei said was so magical, she said, "Brother A Fei, let's take a rest at Fengmen Ao."
"Okay!" Zhang Shaofei said cheerfully.
Sure enough, when Zhang Shaofei and Lu Huilan were sitting on the ground in Fengmen Ao, a breeze blew, and they suddenly felt their fatigue disappear.
Zhang Shaofei raised his eyes and looked around, couldn't help but slap his thigh and stood up!
Zhang Shaofei picked up Lu Huilan as if he had found a treasure. He stared at the mountain pass in front of him and said loudly: "Mei Alan, look at that mountain pass..."
Lu Huilan followed Zhang Shaofei's gaze and looked forward. What she saw in front of her were the two sides of the mountain col. They were full of aura and vitality. Rare herbs such as plantain, muskwort, ghostweed, and trumpet flower surrounded the mountain. , like a green medicine store belt, even the most difficult stone work to find last time came into her eyes...
Lu Huilan was hugged tightly by Zhang Shaofei. She was shy and nervous, but also felt a wave of happiness flowing through her body. Her heart was like a deer hitting her, 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 the unparalleled sweet love...
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 frightened and hurriedly put down Lu Huilan and said, "Sister Alan, God is not kind to you, hurry up and collect herbs before the heavy rain comes."
At this time, Lu Huilan also suddenly woke up from the thunder. She looked charming, her eyes were like autumn water, and she was looking at Zhang Shaofei intently. She nodded with "yes", and a blush appeared on her pretty face. He lowered his head shyly, followed Zhang Shaofei, moved lightly, and slowly walked towards the col's entrance...
After a while, Zhang Shaofei and Lu Huilan collected a lot of Yizhulu Mountain herbal medicine.
The required mountain herbs have been collected. At this time, the dark clouds have been blown away by the autumn wind, and the sky is shining brightly.
Zhang Shaofei and Lu Huilan's eyes couldn't help but light up when they returned to Fengmen Col Road from the col. I saw a lot of passers-by on the winding mountain road. Among the crowds, men and women dressed in festive costumes passed by them laughing and joking.
Suddenly, Zhang Shaofei noticed that among the crowds of people, the shepherd boy was among them. He disappeared into the red dust with a startling glance.
Zhang Shaofei discovered that the uncle he met on the mountain during the last Water Splashing Festival came here in style. When the uncle came to him, he quickly stepped forward, bowed and saluted: "Uncle, do you know the shepherd boy just now?"
The uncle stopped, looked Zhang Shaofei up and down, and then introduced: "The shepherd boy you are talking about may be a boy next to Taoist Priest Shuiyuan. He is very good at martial arts. He is an upright man. If he encounters any injustice on the road, he will definitely fight against it." Draw your sword and help!"
"Uncle, why is the mountain so busy today?" Lu Huilan stood next to Zhang Shaofei and couldn't help but ask.
"Oh?" The uncle saw a young girl asking the young man next to him. He felt a little strange and asked hesitantly: "Where are you... from? You wouldn't even go to the top of Yunwu Mountain to see the cuckoos on the Double Ninth Festival today. You don’t even know the day when the flowers bloom, right?”
Zhang Shaofei said embarrassedly: "Uncle, we are from Taizhen Village and Houliang Village. We come to the mountains to collect herbs. We really don't know about this festival."
"Now that you have entered the mountain, you should go and have a look." When the uncle said this, he couldn't help but glance at Zhang Shaofei and Lu Huilan, and repeated the same words as he said last time: "We people in the mountains have a rumor. There is a saying, 'Even if you miss the wedding date, don't miss the azalea season in Yunwu Mountain.' October in Yunwu Mountain is the most beautiful season of the year."
After listening to the uncle's wonderful and attractive introduction, Lu Huilan suddenly felt eager to give it a try. He said happily: "Brother Afei, it's still early, why don't we go up high and look far into the distance, admiring the azaleas, the magnificent world between heaven and earth!"
Zhang Shaofei clasped his hands together and said loudly: "Okay! Sister Alan, what a great suggestion!" After that, he hid the bamboo basket of raw herbs and the small hoe in a hidden place in Fengmen Ao, looking up at the top of Yunwu Mountain in high spirits.
As expected, the summit of Yunwu Mountain is so high that the road is so steep that "the white clouds are deep enough to cut off the dust and smoke." It is worthy of being the highest peak in central and southern Guangdong.
Zhang Shaofei and Lu Huilan, like climbing members, crossed the cliff at the entrance of Fengmen Col, flowed through the winding streams, and climbed over one mountain after another. After countless twists and turns, they finally climbed to the main peak of Yunwu Mountain.
Standing on the main peak of Yunwu Mountain, looking around, you can see mountains overlapping and towering, as if exposed in the sky, with clouds and mist rising in the blue sky, like a fairyland. Lu Huilan said proudly: "Brother A Fei, I finally climbed to the highest peak of Yunwu Mountain!"
Zhang Shaofei and Lu Huilan climbed to the main peak of Yunwu Mountain with an altitude of 1,251 meters, and experienced the majestic momentum of "the first peak in Qiu County".
Facing the infinitely beautiful Yunfeng Mountain and lamenting the vicissitudes of life, Zhang Shaofei lamented that "ascending the heights of heaven and earth are spectacular, and the vast rivers will never return".
Standing on the top of Yunwu Mountain, facing the vast sky, the vast sea of clouds, the original and beautiful natural scenery of Yunwu Mountain, and facing the flower-like Lu Huilan, just like the girly fragrance emanating from Lu Huilan, just smelling it is fascinating. Intoxicated.
…
Standing on the top of Yunwu Mountain, you can see that between the main peak and the secondary peaks are rolling hills. The ridges are open grass slopes. From time to time, there are herds of bison running all over the mountain. In the sun of the mountain, there is actually a sea of flowers, all over the mountain. The rhododendrons are in bloom, the mountains are covered with azalea, and the mountains are crowded with people... It’s true: October in Yunwu Mountain is really the most beautiful season of the year!
As a result, Zhang Shaofei and Lu Huilan became more excited, and their fatigue disappeared. They couldn't help but join the crowd, feeling that "being on this mountain is worth the trip."
Among the crowd, many well-informed people believe that azalea is one of the most famous flowers in the contemporary Tang Dynasty. It usually blooms in spring and autumn, and its representative variety is commonly known as "Yingshanhong". In Qiu County, if you want to see alpine azaleas, you must climb to the highest peak of Yunwu Mountain.
Over the years, the beautiful natural scenery of Yunwu Mountain has attracted countless young people to climb the mountain and watch it. Even if they have to climb the highest peak, they still enjoy it.
Zhang Shaofei and Lu Huilan went into the mountains to collect herbs this time, which was exactly what the uncle said. Although they caught up with the azalea season in Yunwu Mountain, they saw the most beautiful season of the year in Yunwu Mountain. But he missed his wedding date with Lu Huilan...
The number is certain, but those who are capable do not predict it.
