After the rain, the Yunwu Mountain was as clean as a wash, the blue sky was as clean as a transparent crystal, and a gorgeous rainbow was set up, which seemed to open the door to Zhang Shaofei and them.

Colorful wildflowers bloom along the roadside, dotted among the green grass, attracting butterflies and bees. All kinds of green vines are entwined with century-old trees, which makes them even more leafy. Hundreds of birds chase and frolic in the forest, and swallows dance and warblers sing. The majestic boulders stand in the midst of the cascading mountains.

Flowing clouds out of Xiu, flowing in the green mountains, Yunwu Mountain is like a fairyland on earth.

At the northern foot of Yunwu Mountain, there is a winding mountain road that leads to the top of the mountain. This ancient post road is an important passage connecting Taizhen with Enkaiping and the seaside of Yangjiang.

For thousands of years, the silence in the mountains has been broken by the melodious sound of "jingling" bells from time to time. "The mountain bell rings the horse gang", the horse gang from the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, carrying the exchanged materials on the ancient post road to walk back and forth, to this ancient post road brought a unique style.

Seeing that there were horse gangs walking by from time to time on the ancient post road, in order to avoid people's eyes, Zhang Shaofei proposed to Liang Futian not to take the ancient post road where people come and go, but to take the remote mountain path.

Liang Futian is a native of Yunwu Mountain, and he is very familiar with the surrounding environment, and pointed Zhang Shaofei to the convenient mountain path to go up.

Liang Futian was more than 30 pounds heavier than Wang Shaoxiang, and Zhang Shaofei had a hard time climbing the mountain with him on his back. But Zhang Shaofei gritted his teeth and walked up the mountain step by step. He knew that with every step forward, he was one step closer to his destination.

Zhang Shaofei carried Liang Futian, a big man, and finally climbed a steep slope scattered with rocks, and the scenery in front of him suddenly opened up: a flat lake, sparkling clear water, reflecting the blue sky. Small silver-scaled fish swim freely in the water. The lake is surrounded by a variety of aquatic plants and a variety of unknown wildflowers.

Next to the lakeside water spring, there is also a turtle-shaped boulder.

"Great view!" Zhang Shaofei couldn't help but praise.

Liang Futian patted Zhang Shaofei on the shoulder, then pointed to the crystal clear flowing spring on the left, and said, "Ah Fei, put me down." ”

Zhang Shaofei: "Uncle Futian, is there something wrong?" ”

Liang Futian: "Let's all drink the spring water of this fountain of youth." ”

Zhang Shaofei put Liang Futian down, took a breath, pointed to the spring water under the impact of Bai Lian, and asked, "You just said that this mountain spring is called the Spring of Immortality?" ”

"Yes," Liang Futian introduced, "we mountain people have a conventional habit, whenever we enter and exit the mountain and pass through here, we like to go to the Fountain of Immortal to drink a few sips of spring water." ”

Zhang Shaofei pondered: "Fountain of Immortality? Listening to this name, looking at this spring water, does this spring water have the effect of immortality? ”

Liang Futian said seriously: "Immortality is fake, but drinking it makes people live longer is indeed true." Not to mention, there are many centenarians in our Liangtianzhai. Now the longest-lived Jinquan Po, 114 years old this year, is still deaf and clear-sighted, and can still feed chickens, wash vegetables, and cook rice at home. ”

Wang Shaoxiang: "I am in Taizhen Mountain, and I often hear people say that people on this side of Yunwu Mountain are very long-lived. ”

"The mountains and rivers are good, and the people are naturally good." Liang Futian pointed to the boulder by the spring when he spoke, and said, "You see that this boulder weighs at least 100,000 catties, and its shape doesn't look like a turtle?" ”

Wang Shaoxiang looked at the big stone and said, "After you reminded me like this, this big stone really looks like a big turtle lying by the spring drinking water. Turtles are long-lived creatures! ”

Zhang Shaofei said with a smile: "Ah, to give this spring the name of this fountain of immortality, it must be a great talent who has read poetry and books." ”

Liang Futian: "We can't verify whether the name of this fountain of immortality was given by Da Xiucai, but it must have been given by a person of great wisdom." ”

"You're right." Zhang Shaofei turned around and said to Wang Shaoxiang, "Mother, you can live a long life if you drink this spring water, you drink it first." ”

Liang Futian praised: "Ah Fei, you are really a filial son, and good things always let your mother come first." ”

Wang Shaoxiang walked crutches, very tired, sweating a lot, very thirsty at this time, came to the spring, put down the crutches, bent down with both hands to drink the spring water, a cool with sweetness straight through the heart. After Wang Shaoxiang drank it, he suddenly felt refreshed, stretched his tongue out of his mouth, licked it back and forth, and shouted repeatedly: "This spring water is cold and sweet!" Fei'er, you can also take a few more sips. ”

Zhang Shaofei carried Liang Futian up the mountain on his back, sweating more, and thirsty like fire, so he and Liang Futian successively drank water under the Fountain of Youth.

The hound, Ah Wang, usually follows Liang Futian up and down the mountain, and will come to this fountain of immortality to drink. At this time, after everyone had drunk water, they rushed to the spring and drank the water on their stomachs.

After drinking the water, they sat down under the boulder by the spring to rest.

The mountain breeze was blowing in the face, and everyone felt that the fatigue had been reduced a lot.

Not far from the Fountain of Youth, a wooden plank bridge flies over the lake.

Zhang Shaofei stood up and looked: this bridge is about five zhang long, the middle piers are natural boulders, and the bridge deck is composed of three long thick planks.

Liang Futian pointed to the other side of the lake and said, "After crossing this beam bridge, there is a mountain path that leads to our Liangtian Village. ”

"Girder Bridge?" Zhang Shaofei's heart was touched, "The name of this bridge is a bit strange, why is it called the Beam Bridge?" ”

Liang Futian explained: "As the name suggests, because this bridge is to protect Liang Tian and the people passing through Liang Tian, and also to protect the safety and security of the people around Liang Tian Village. ”

Zhang Shaofei was puzzled: "You have to be more detailed." ”

Liang Futianyang pointed to the bridge: "Don't look at the bridge deck is not wide, it is seven or eight feet high above the water, and there are big stones raised on it, but it will not be dangerous to walk across this bridge." ”

Zhang Shaofei didn't believe it: "No." The bridge deck is so narrow, what if people accidentally fall off the bridge deck while walking? ”

Liang Futian's tone was full of seriousness: "Over the years, someone has accidentally fallen down across the bridge with a big buffalo, but they are all unscathed. ”

Zhang Shaofei and Wang Shaoxiang exclaimed: "There is such a miraculous thing. ”

"We don't know why, but it's true! That's why we all call this bridge a girder bridge. There are many miles of magical east on the cloudy mountain. Liang Futian looked up at the mountain, "Okay, the sun is gradually rising, let's hurry." ”

"Okay." Zhang Shaofei carried Liang Futian on his back again, and Wang Shaoxiang was on crutches. Everyone easily crossed the beam bridge and walked up the winding mountain road.

The ancient trees in the mountains are towering, and the vines hang down from the tall trees, covering the sky and the sun. White plum blossoms dot the green mountains in the distance, and wildflowers are in full bloom. The waterfall is noisy, and there are countless stones of different sizes in the stream beside the path, and there are many smooth mortars on the rocks that are well abrased and distributed in groups. A babbling stream flowed happily from the side.

They walked, walked, and Wang Shaoxiang, who was walking up the mountain on crutches, seemed to have discovered something: "Fei'er, why is the finch on Yunwu Mountain green?" ”

Zhang Shaofei followed Wang Shaoxiang's point, looked up, and saw old vines climbing on the tall trees, and bunches of green flowers hanging on the vines, these flowers are very similar to the birds, the brown fluff on both sides of the calyx is like the two small eyes on the head of the birds, the pointed beaks, and the open petals are like the wings of the birds. The mountain wind blows, the flowers sway and sway, and the wind is graceful, much like a finch flapping its wings and flying high.

Before Zhang Shaofei could reply, Liang Futian had already rushed to speak: "What hangs on the tree is not a bird, but a bird's flower." ”

"Sparrows?" Wang Shaoxiang muttered, "How can the finch bloom?" ”

Liang Futian laughed after hearing this: "Auntie, what is on this tree is not a flying sparrow, but a flower shaped like a sparrow.

Zhang Shaofei laughed: "Mother, this is indeed a flower hanging on a big tree." You're getting older and can't see things in the distance very clearly. ”

Wang Shaoxiang laughed: "Fei'er, in this way, my mother and I are old and dizzy, and now I can't recognize my old age." ”

Liang Futian: "It's no wonder you. When many people first arrived in Yunwu Mountain, they saw the bunches of grass finches hanging on the trees, and they mistakenly thought that they were grass birds. ”

Along the way, they saw a lot of grass finch trees, and the bunches of grass finch flowers, compared with the living grass sparrows, are vivid and lifelike.

Zhang Shaofei carried Liang Futian on his back, and came to the halfway point of Yunwu Mountain with his mother's prince Shaoxiang, and a forked road was in front of him.

Liang Futian heard Zhang Shaofei's panting voice, knew that he was already very tired, and said: "Brother Ah Fei, this place is called 'Lingji', let's take a rest here." ”
