After walking around the market, I returned to the bridgehead. I was still full of interest and was still thrilling, but Xiaohong seemed to be in a deep mood.
"You have something to worry about?"
Looking at Xiaohong's eyes, I asked.
"No, no."
Xiaohong shook her head and denied it, and opened her eyes widened again, trying her best to radiate some joy in her eyes to hide her listless appearance.
"Let's go climb the mountain." I asked Xiaohong. "Is there any fun place here?"
"Yes! Of course, there is." Xiaohong said. "Longdong Pond is the most fun."
Xiaohong suddenly became happy again, and the loneliness just now disappeared.
"Okay." I said excitedly. "Let's go to Longdong Pond..."
We bought some snacks and fruits and set off.
The way to Longdongtan is to walk over the bridge next to the market and pass by Xiaohong's doorstep.
Xiaohong is wearing a silver-white coat with suspenders on both sides of the corners of the clothes. When walking, she sways like a fish swimming in clear water, which can show her youthful vitality, innocent and cute.
After crossing the bridge, the road to Longdongtan turned to the right. This is a cement road that can only be carried by one car. On both sides of the cement road are densely distributed residential housing. Not far away, you will reach the door of Xiaohong's house.
The door was covered in a false sense. Xiaohong stopped and hesitated for a moment, and then said:
"Forget it, I'd better not tell them."
After Xiaohong finished speaking, I nodded in agreement.
After walking the cement road, I passed through the alley with dense houses. Going further forward, there were paddy fields, and a small path slowly went up along the ridge of the field. About half an hour later, Longdong Pond appeared in front of me.
"Look! This is Long Cave Pond."
Little Red One
While telling me excitedly, he jumped around the pond with ecstasy.
"What a magical small pool!"
I not only admired happily.
The lake water is gentle in the sun, blue, and the fine waves are floating on the lake surface. I picked up some small stone particles and threw them to the water surface. Suddenly, large and small water patterns spread out from the water surface. The large water patterns surround the small water patterns.
Refreshing and spreading in circles. What is even more amazing is that the water source of the pond water was actually under a huge ginkgo tree by the pond, and a clear spring slowly flowed out.
Xiaohong and I sat down on the stone under the big tree.
Xiaohong looked at me from time to time and smiled. It was a kind of laugh that girls didn’t often have. This kind of laughter was the best and the most touching one’s heart.
I took out the apple in the bag, and Xiaohong peeled it seriously. The apple flexibly turned around in her hand. After a while, a long peel necklace was shaking and jumping. Finally, it fell into the
I picked it up again on the ground, held it in my hand and let it beat gently in the breeze. It seemed that it was a heart of love, light and slim. It reminded me of the Japanese TV "Love Me"
"Follow Me", a paragraph in the play, a line from the heroine Hiroko:
‘Love is like wandering in the comfortable wind. Even on the soft spider web, you will not fall. The heart of love is so light...’
This is the fact. Xiaohong and I are like a pair of little spiders on the spider web, swinging in the comfortable wind, and even if we encounter a storm, we do not fall down...
"Do you know why this pool is called Longdong Pond?"
Xiaohong suddenly asked this.
"I don't know, maybe you know."
I chuckled.
“Of course I know.
I heard from the old people that this place was just a weedland a long time ago. In a severe drought year when grains were not harvested, many people fled everywhere. There were disaster victims from Sichuan. When the mother and son passed by here, they found that the plants and trees everywhere died of drought.
But there was still a vigorous growth of aquatic plants here, so they decided to stay here.
As soon as they lived, their mother was terminally ill. At that time, there was no food, so they could only rely on wild vegetables to satisfy their hunger. In order to get their mother's illness soon, the son went to someone's place dozens of miles away to beg for food. He finally asked for it back
He took back the rice with a bowl of rice, but he didn't want to eat a grain of rice. He used this Wan rice to cook porridge for his mother for several days. Soon his mother died unfortunately and his son was heartbroken.
The night when his mother was buried was thunderstorm. He lay on the wooden tower and fell asleep unknowingly. In his sleep, he saw his mother riding a giant dragon towards him, and his mother said to him:
'Son, don't be sad anymore, you are a filial and good son. Although Mom is gone, you still have to live a strong life. Mom is here to benefit you. I will give you a paddy field that will never drought and let your son
The descendants all have endless rice to eat.'
After the mother said that, she turned around and left as soon as she turned around. When her son saw that her mother was about to leave, he wanted to shout:
‘Mom, don’t leave, don’t leave…’
He used all his strength, but he couldn't shout out loud, so he had to watch his mother riding the dragon.
My mother kept patting the dragon's tail, and the dragon's tail swung left and right, and the place where she swung turned into pieces of paddy fields. He chased him far away and saw his mother disappearing in a beach of water while riding a giant dragon.
When he opened his eyes, the genius was hazy. He thought about the scene in his dream just now and quickly got up. When he went outside, he saw that there was indeed a paddy field that could not be seen. He kept searching along the edge of the field and found it.
A pool of water, deep and bottomless, I just don’t know where the dragon went…”
Xiaohong finished talking endlessly.
I not only sigh:
"I really didn't expect that there was such a moving legend in Longdong Pond. However, there have always been legends that half of Shaanxi people in Hanzhong migrated from Sichuan. Also, Sichuan people who are hard-working and hard-working will be willing to leave as soon as they arrive here
There are a lot of paddy fields. Besides, Shaanxi people south of the Qinling Mountains also have Sichuan accents, which also shows all this."
"Maybe it, anyway, these are the stories my grandfather told me when he was a child."
