"Ah Zi, you say, in our fantasy sword village, what is the legend of this Mid-Autumn Festival. It won't be Chang'e running to the moon. "The moonlight is like satin, sprinkled with silver glow in the village, and the weather in September is not very cool because of the many hot springs.
And the breeze blows, which brings out the ripe fruity fragrance in the mountain, which makes people feel very comfortable smelling it. Zi Die sat in the courtyard and picked up the beans in her hand, Lu Xiaofeng sat on the table by the courtyard, looked up at the moon, listened to the laughter that broke out from time to time in the village, and asked curiously.
Purple Butterfly's pure eyes flashed a hint of panic, and she shook her head gently. Lu Xiaofeng was energetic, his body rubbed forward, and his voice was full of curiosity: "What kind of legend is that?"
Seeing that Purple Butterfly pursed her lips and smiled, but she didn't answer, Lu Xiaofeng began to ask again and again, and was asked by Lu Xiaofeng, this Purple Butterfly was a little shy to tell this story about the moon and the sky.
According to the Phantom Sword Village, the Moon God Moon is believed in in the Village as a loyal, honest, hardworking and brave young man. There was a young and beautiful girl who rejected ninety-nine young men from ninety-nine states who proposed to her and fell deeply in love with the moon.
In the end, she also went through all the tribulations created by the sun, and finally was happily united with the moon. Because of the nostalgia for their happy love, the Miao fathers and elders have been bathed in the light of the moon on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival for generations, dancing the songs and dances of the Miao family, and calling this custom "jumping the moon".
It is said that the moon god is omnipotent, if the girl to be married bathes in the melting moonlight of the Mid-Autumn Festival, not only can the face become more and more delicate, but also the moonlight can make their wishes come true, the girl in this neighborhood is seventeen or eighteen years old, of course, the heart is the charm that will accompany him to spend his life with the prince of the empty horse.
In that way, the girls under the moonlight will be able to fulfill their wishes in the days to come. That's what happened. Lu Xiaofeng thought of Zidie's shy appearance, and was also a little sudden: No wonder Zidie is so shy, how can she be embarrassed to accompany Zidie like this.
This Mid-Autumn Festival has finally arrived. The sun had just set, and the thick atmosphere had already permeated Ziwei Miao Village. Children who enjoy a long summer vacation have a thousand reasons to revolve around the stove at home. They are their mother's little tails, and they always look forward to the festival flavor that their mother's hands cook.
Many villagers pick the dense tree bags from the pine trees in the mountains, pick them down and put them in the fire pond for barbecue, and then beat them with a small hammer, the black and shiny pine nuts will jump out, and the yellow pears in front of the mountain and behind the house are as sweet as they are, and the water is more fleshy and tender.
Before the Mid-Autumn Festival dinner begins, the children don't want to eat, but they still have to sit at the table, listen to the arrangements of their grandparents or parents, and live this festival with some piety.
Lu Xiaofeng also followed the big cow and they went into the mountain, picked a lot of pine nuts and pears and came back, the big cow they all knew that now Lu Xiaofeng and Ziyuejun were close, and when they were about to separate, everyone left pine nuts for Lu Xiaofeng.
In this way, Lu Xiaofeng gave Ziyuejun a portion, plus she went up the mountain to pick it herself, which was enough for the two of them to eat. Zi Die, this Nizi, also burned a lot of dishes, knowing that Lu Xiaofeng likes to eat fresh fruits in the mountains, and the strange fruits are not less.
What pecans, small sour dates...... A lot of them, which made Lu Xiaofeng eat a round stomach. Therefore, the dinner on this day is always full, flying in the mountains, swimming in the river, hanging on the trees, and growing on the ground are all on the battlefield together, this is the Phantom Sword Man's understanding of the Mid-Autumn Festival.
There were no firecrackers, Lu Xiaofeng stood on the table in the courtyard and stretched out his head to look out, but he somewhat understood the rules in this village. It turns out that in this Mid-Autumn Festival, the elderly will quietly come upstairs while people are eating and drinking.
Tossing some pine nuts on the heads of family members is an essential procedure for the Mid-Autumn Festival. Whoever sprinkles more pine nuts on his head means who has better luck, and pine nuts are auspicious tokens.
This is also what Lu Xiaofeng only found out after asking Zidie. Baby Anne was not in good health, but she got out of bed this day, grabbed the pine nuts tremblingly, and sprinkled them on Lu Xiaofeng and Zi Butterfly's head, and she also deliberately sprinkled more on Lu Xiaofeng's head.
"Grandma, sprinkle more on Ah Zi too. Lu Xiaofeng was a little embarrassed, isn't this obviously cheating. looked back at Purple Butterfly, but just looked at himself with a smile with those bright eyes, watching him look at himself, and then hurriedly flashed his gaze to the side.
The pine nuts are sprinkled, and the moon comes out. Baby Anne is not in good health, but as the head of the family, she still takes the matter of sacrificing the moon on her head. With the support of the purple butterfly, I came to a big tree on the left side of the yard.
Put all the fruits on the table, put a glutinous rice round cake on each of the four corners, and insert a stick of cold incense on each cake. As soon as the moon rises over the mountains and forests, she will light the incense of cold incense and light the incense of her heart, and Baby Anne will sing a strange song.
Lu Xiaofeng tilted his head and listened, there were a lot of Miao sounds mixed in it, and he couldn't understand it at all, so he just did it. Purple Butterfly was in the courtyard and stood for a while, and then she was called into the house by Baby Anne, and she didn't know what she was talking about.
It took a long time for the purple butterfly to come out, glanced at Lu Xiaofeng, lowered her head and didn't know what she was thinking. Lu Xiaofeng looked at the bright moon above her head, but she thought in her heart that Ziyuejun didn't know what she was doing now, and she was a little worried in her heart, thinking about her being alone during the Mid-Autumn Festival, she was inevitably a little sad in her heart.
Inadvertently seeing Zi Die's appearance, Lu Xiaofeng was also quite strange: "What's wrong with Ah Zi? Zi Die's face was obviously flustered, and she quickly glanced at Lu Xiaofeng.
In the distance, I heard Baby Anne cough in the house. This purple butterfly finally raised her head: "Brother Lu Xiaofeng, can I teach you to sing mountain songs?" "Okay! teach me to sing some good songs!" Lu Xiaofeng was still a little absent-minded just now, thinking of Zi Die's words, he was in a good mood.
Thinking about it for a while, I and Ziyuejun were singing against each other under the moon, admiring the moon and eating fruits, and I couldn't help but feel a little itchy in my heart. But seriously, Lu Xiaofeng hasn't heard Purple Butterfly sing mountain songs yet.
"That's good. Zidie thought for a moment and moistened her throat: "You are merciless but affectionate, you come to look for it over the mountains and passes, the sister's hand is short and the sleeves are short, I once brought a good snack." ”
Purple Butterfly's voice obviously has the crispness and loudness of a girl, but it is very similar to the voice of a lark, sweet and crisp, but Purple Butterfly seems to have particularly suppressed her voice, so the voice did not spread far.
"When you go into the mountain, you see vines wrapped around trees, and when you go out of the mountains, you see trees wrapped around vines. The tree dies and the vine is entangled to death, and the vine is dead and the tree is entangled. Purple Butterfly lay in Lu Xiaofeng's ear and gently taught Lu Xiaofeng a lyric.
The tune of the mountain song was easy to grasp, Lu Xiaofeng strengthened his courage, and then the thick man's voice dispersed. "Hmm. That's it. "Purple Butterfly's voice was as small as a mosquito, and her bright eyes were now like black grapes under the moon, pure and black.
This purple butterfly could see her red face in the moonlight, as well as her trembling voice, which made Lu Xiaofeng very suspicious: Ah Zi, what's wrong? Why did you just teach a song and run away? I haven't learned enough.
After a while, Zidie came out of the house again, and then discussed with Lu Xiaofeng: "Or, let's go out for a walk?" Lu Xiaofeng stood up suddenly: "Okay." Let's go to Xanadu, shall we?"
"You miss Sister Ziyue," Zi Die pursed her lips and smiled: "When you get there in a while, you go to see Ziyue-kun, she is quite lonely, I will wait for you at the gate of the paradise." ”
Out of the courtyard gate, Lu Xiaofeng found that the current village around has almost become a good place for dating, in the bamboo forest, by the stream, from time to time there is a pair of young men and girls in the village to admire the moon, and the mountain songs come and go, and it is not clear who sang it for a while.
Halfway through, I happened to meet the purple-shirted man. This Zhe Shao has his hands behind his back and a cigarette in his mouth, and he is walking around the bamboo forest in the village, and when he gets closer, he has a wine bottle in his hand.
Seeing Lu Xiaofeng and Purple Butterfly together, a strange expression rose in Na Zheshao's eyes. Zidie also saw Zhe Shao, and almost wanted to hide behind Lu Xiaofeng in a panic. "You talk first, I'll wait for you in front. Without waiting for Lu Xiaofeng to reply, the purple butterfly had already hurriedly walked forward.
The purple-shirted man pushed his glasses, looked at Zi Die thoughtfully, and then turned his head again, carefully observing Lu Xiaofeng's expression, "Why are you looking at me with these eyes?
"Do you really don't know or don't you know?" the purple-shirted man handed the wine in his hand to Lu Xiaofeng. Lu Xiaofeng was not polite, took it and took a sip directly, the wine is good wine, but Lu Xiaofeng doesn't know how to taste it, and he felt a fire rise in his throat.
"Today is a moon walk, you came out with Purple Butterfly, could it be a moon walk?" said the purple-shirted man with a smile. "There, that girl of Purple Butterfly. I'm going to the hideaway with her, but then again, what are you doing here?"
