There is a man named Li Daring in our village, who is as bold as his name suggests, and usually helps others, and everyone calls him Li Daring.
At noon that day, the sun was like a fireball, and under the big locust tree in the village, several old men gathered in a circle, fanning the big pu fan, chatting about the sky.
Suddenly, there was a commotion in the tavern in the distance, which disturbed the silence. "Oh, whose kid is this arguing again?" An old man frowned and glanced over the tavern.
When Li Daring heard this, he didn't say anything, stood up and rushed to the tavern.
He was in such a hurry, he was afraid that there would be some big mess.
When I arrived at the door of the tavern, I saw that the two big men were scuffling together, and the tables, chairs and benches were in a mess.
It turned out to be Zhang San from the east of the village and Wang Wu from the west of the village, who quarreled because of some trivial things, drank wine, and became bolder, the more noisy they became, and finally they started to do it. "Stop fighting!
It's all from the same village, what's there to get by! Li dared to shout, separated the two, and began to fight.
He first counted down Zhang San a few words, and then turned his head to comfort Wang Wu, and the two of them slowly calmed down, each found a corner, and stopped talking.
thought that this matter was over, Li boldly patted the soil on his body, and was about to leave, but saw the old man Zhao Si on the side, staring at him with an unfathomable look, and muttering: "Go take a bath, young man." Li was stunned for a moment, thinking to himself, why did this old man suddenly come up with such a headless sentence?
He smiled, didn't take it to heart, thinking that Zhao Si might have drunk too much and talking nonsense, so he thanked him and turned to leave.
From that day on, Li Daring's days seemed to be covered by something invisible.
First, I had nightmares at night, dreaming that I was being chased by an invisible force, and I was so tired that I couldn't run away out of breath; I work during the day, but I always feel like I'm powerless, as if my strength has been stolen.
The people in the village also saw that Li Daring's face was getting worse and worse, and there was a little more indescribable anxiety in his eyes. "Li Daring, what's wrong?
Where is the former spiritual leader? "The villagers are talking in private.
Li Daring himself also felt strange, he went to look at Lao Langzhong in the village, Lao Langzhong checked the pulse, shook his head and said: "There is nothing wrong with your body, it may be that your heart is hot, you have to rest." "But after a few days of rest, the situation is not only not better, but it is getting worse.
In the dead of night, Li Daring's panic in his heart was like being chased by a wolf, turning over the river and the sea, making him unable to sleep all night.
Finally one day, he couldn't hold it back, and decided to go to Zhao Si's house to ask for an understanding.
He took three steps and made two steps, rushed to Zhao Si's house, and as soon as he entered the door, he asked urgently: "Uncle Zhao, why did you urge me to hurry up and take a bath that day?"
Is there something you haven't said? Zhao Si looked at his eager appearance, sighed, and spoke slowly: "Baby, do you know what secrets we have in the Liuxi River?"
And in that river, there was a fish that had become fine, and he was to tease those who were distraught.
You persuaded you to fight that day, which was originally well-intentioned, but it didn't come to fruition, and it disturbed it, and it left a mark on you, wanting to make fun of you. Li Daring heard this, his heart tightened, although he usually didn't believe in these gods, but the seriousness of Zhao Si's face made him have to believe it a little.
"That'...... So what should I do? Li Daring was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot.
Old man Zhao Si pondered for a while and said, "If you want to get rid of this mark, you have to sincerely repent and wash away the dust on your body and the distractions in your heart.
Tonight, when you go to the Liuxi River alone, your whole body is soaked in water, and you silently say in your heart, 'The clouds and smoke of the past are all empty', maybe you can take a turn for the better." Li boldly listened, although he was worried about it, but he had to give it a try.
When night fell, the Liuxi River was quiet, only the moonlight sprinkled on the water, sparkling.
Li Daring came to the river, took off his clothes, and walked into the cold water step by step.
The deeper the water, the more chills he felt, as if his bones were about to freeze and crack.
At that moment, he suddenly felt a force pulling at him, as if to pull him to the bottom of the river.
He snapped his eyes open and saw something swimming rapidly in the water, rushing towards him...... The panic in Li Daring's heart was like being blown through by the northwest wind in winter, and it was cold.
His eyes widened as he stared at the approaching black shadow, wondering how to respond.
But this thing, what kind of thing can he deal with as an ordinary person? "Damn, I'm afraid I'm going to be planted here today!" Li Daring scolded in his heart, but then he thought about it, if he really has a good one, who will take care of the old lady in the family?
What will the people in the village think of him?
No, you have to go out, and you have to fight for your life!
Thinking of this, Li Daring took a deep breath and suppressed that fear.
He kicked the bottom of the river violently, and the whole body scurried up like a fish, waving his hands wildly, hoping to hit the unknown object.
Strange to say, at the moment of his jump, the black shadow seemed to be stunned, and its speed slowed down, allowing Li Daring to take the opportunity to jump out of the water and gasp for breath.
Oops, this thing is really hanging, almost planted here!
Li Daring wiped his face, water beads splashed everywhere, and the seven up and eight down in his heart really couldn't be described.
But he knew in his heart that this matter was not over yet, and he had to think about it quickly.
As he was pondering, a voice suddenly came from his ear, and his voice was old and deep: "Young man, don't worry, listen to me." Li was taken aback, looked around, and there was no one.
Only then did he come back to his senses, and the voice seemed to come from his heart.
He stabilized his mind, carefully pondered the words of Zhao Si Laohan, and had a spectrum in his heart.
"Right!
Repent and cleanse your heart and thoughts! Li boldly muttered to himself, and then plunged headlong into the water.
This time, he didn't flutter anymore, but his mind was as calm as water, he closed his eyes, and felt the flow of water and every slight change in his body with all his attention.
After a long time, he felt as if he had melted into the water, and those troubles and negative emotions were slowly washed away with the water.
Suddenly, he felt a warm current welling up from his heart, enveloping him all over, and the force that had been pulling him into the water was gone.
Li boldly opened his eyes suddenly, and the water was so clear that he could see the pebbles at the bottom of the river.
The dark shadow was long gone, replaced by an indescribable serenity and serenity.
"It's finished?" Li Daring couldn't believe it, he moved his hands and feet, and the feeling of pulling was gone.
He excitedly emerged from the water, took a big breath of fresh air, and called it a relaxation in his heart, and a joy in his heart.
When he returned to the village, he told Zhao Si and everyone about the riverside everything.
At first, everyone was still skeptical, but looking at Li Daring's mental head and the recovered physical strength, they couldn't help but believe it a little.
"In our Liuxi River, it seems that there are really a lot of doorways!" An old man said with emotion. "That's right, in the future, we have to respect nature more, and don't easily provoke those things we don't understand." Another old man also said.
Li boldly listened to everyone's discussions, and had mixed feelings in his heart.
He knew that this time he was able to turn the danger into a disaster, thanks to the guidance of Zhao Si, as well as his persistence and courage.
He also understood that everyone has a piece of land in their hearts that needs to be washed, and only by constantly introspecting and purifying their hearts can they truly get rid of shackles and gain freedom.
Whenever night falls, the little cubs in the village sit around Li Daring and listen to him tell the thrilling past.
Li Daring always looked at them with a smile, and his heart was full of satisfaction and happiness.
Because he knows that his life's experience and wisdom have left a valuable wealth to future generations - reverence for life, respect for nature, and infinite yearning for a better future.
The final chapter of the story, time flies, and Li Daring's story has become an immortal legend in our Liuxi Village.
Whether by the fire in winter or in the shade of a tree in summer, the older generation always likes to talk about the past, and the children widen their eyes and listen to it with relish.
Although Li Daring is old, he is very energetic, as if the years have taken special care of him.
This year, our Liuxi Village encountered an unprecedented drought, the river was about to bottom out, the crops were wilted, and the villagers were sad one by one.
The old village chief convened a meeting to discuss countermeasures, but it was not a good idea to discuss and discuss.
Li Daring sat there without saying a word, but his heart felt like a river and a sea.
"Dad, do we have to do something?" Li Daring's son, Xiao Li, asked eagerly.
Li boldly raised his head, his eyes were deep, as if he could penetrate the fog of time and see the night that made him die for the rest of his life. "Baby, do you remember the river I told you about?" Xiao Li was stunned for a moment, then nodded. "Remember, you said there was a secret in that river." "Yes, that river, it is not only water, but also the soul of our village.
We'll have to look for it and see if we can ask it to help us. Li boldly stood up, leaned on crutches, and walked out tremblingly.
When the villagers saw this, they all advised him not to go, saying that he was too old to run around.
But Li Dadao was determined to go, he said: "My old bones, I can still do something for the village, and it is worth dying." In this way, Li Daring took a few young and strong young men and embarked on the road to find a water source.
They followed the dry riverbed, all the way north, through countless barren lands, through dense forests, and over hills.
On the night of the successful water diversion, Li Daring quietly came to the lake alone, bowed deeply to the lake, and muttered: "Thanks to your old man's words back then, I have learned to respect nature and life."
Although I am old, my children and grandchildren will remember this kindness and continue to protect this land. After saying this, he seemed to hear a long sigh from the lake, and the voice was very gentle, very kind, as if in response to his gratitude.
Since then, Liuxi Village has not suffered from any serious drought.
The villagers' cherishing of water and their reverence for nature are all from the heart.
Li Daring's story is not only a symbol of courage and wisdom, but also a good example of the harmonious coexistence of man and nature.
Time flickered, and Li Daring also left peacefully.
But his spirit, like the magical lake, will always remain in the hearts of the people of Liuxi Village.
Every time someone mentions that past, the old people in the village will happily say, "That's the soul of our village!" Xiao Li, the kid, also inherited his father's legacy and became the new guardian of the village.
He often takes the children to the lake and tells them those ancient and mysterious stories, so that they can learn to respect nature, cherish life, and have the courage to take responsibility.
In this way, Li Daring's story has been passed down from generation to generation in Liuxi Village, becoming a kind of faith, a kind of strength, and an eternal legend.
That magical lake, like a spirit, quietly guards the land and its people.
