In the northwest of Gulin County, Lu Zhou City, there was a vast scenic area called the Old Forest of Redbud.

History says that in the 41st year of the Qing Dynasty (1776), Yongning County, Sichuan Province, Guizhou Province, and the three prefectures of Guizhou Province will survey and delimit the area, and the area will be permanently sealed. Because of the towering ancient trees in the mountains and the deep environment, it is called the "Old Yellow Forest".

Another poem by Liang Chunhua praised him, "Splitting eight holes, flying out of ten thousand mountains, clouds swallowing the edge of the sun, the sound of the spring hundreds of mountains. For the past ten years, I have been a guest at the capital and have gone through all sorts of hardships. "

After that, he recited a poem on the wall, "Jue He Flying Spring, Flowing Dark Wall. Qi Feng zhang's sun amuses the cold, snow dispels the opening of the cave, and the world is different."

From these lines, one could see how magnificent the scenery of the Redbud Old Forest was. It could even be said to be the best in Lu Zhou, but because there were many famous mountains and rivers in Ba Chuan, and because his reputation was spread abroad, the golden-haired Old Forest was dwarfed.

There was also a legend regarding the Redbud Old Forest:

It was said that many years ago, there was a giant python in one of the eight caves. The chief of the local stronghold posted a notice saying that whoever could kill the python would be betrothed to someone else.

There was a Miao youth, Ah Hei, who was in love with A Jin. After hearing the news, he immediately went to Sun Aoki to worship an old deity as a teacher. He wanted to learn martial arts and kill pythons.

After three years of study, Ah Hei, with a sword gifted by an old deity, fought fiercely with the python for three days and three nights, cutting it into eight sections, which became eight cave waterfalls.

With the joy of victory, Ah Hei proposed to the village head. Who knew that the village head would reject him on the grounds that they couldn't get married off to each other. A'Hei threw himself into the Black Dragon Pond and turned into a black dragon. After realizing this, A Jin was filled with grief and also jumped into the river and turned into a golden fish.

From then on, that stream was called Goldfish Creek, and it flowed beside the Black Dragon Pool all year round. It was said that every waterfall in the Eight Section Caves had the embodiment of the love between A'Hei and A'Jin.

After hanging up the phone in the morning, Lin Xi got up and washed up, tidied up his luggage, and prepared to bid his farewell to Ang Youyong. He had already achieved his main objective for coming to Lu Zhou, and since the wedding had already been successfully concluded, he naturally had to set out for home.

Furthermore, Lin Xi still remembered that Ang Youyong and Xia Qi were about to begin their honeymoon. Qin Yu and Zhang Zhiyan were also about to return to the Yunjian, so there was no meaning for him to stay at all. It would be better for him to leave as soon as possible.

However, when Ang Youyong found out about this news, he refused to let him leave even if he had to, and did not even hesitate to snatch his salute and throw it back to the An clan. There was only one reason for this, and that was to ask him to stay for a few more days.

Ang Youyong said: "Brother Xi, you have been at Lu Zhou for so long, yet haven't had any fun. In the next few days, we will take you on a tour around, if not if people find out, they would even say that we are neglecting you. I will secretly tell you, Brother Yu and Zhiyan are also going together, you should consider it."

Due to the fact that Ang Youyong was forced to do so due to his rascally nature, Lin Xi had no choice but to agree.

However, thinking of Qin Yu and Zhang Zhiyan, Lin Xi also knew that he should say goodbye to them. After all, Qin Yu had helped him enormously, and Zhang Zhiyan was also a good friend!

Furthermore, Lin Xi also had a strange feeling about Zhang Zhiyan that was hard to put into words. However, she definitely did not like her.

The second day, Lin Xi and the others only had five people, so they only drove Ang Youyong's black coloured Volkswagen out. However, the time of departure was not in the morning, but in the afternoon.

Around 2pm in the afternoon, the black mass stopped outside of a farmhouse outside the Redbud Old Forest, where Ang Youyong had arranged a place to stay ahead of time.

After settling down, the group of five began to travel around the surrounding area, but they did not enter the scenic area, because it was already getting late, so even if they went in there, they wouldn't be able to play with anything and they would have to come out. There was no point in that at all, they might as well go in early tomorrow and play with him wholeheartedly during the day.

However, for some reason, after Qin Yu came to the Redbud Old Forest, he did not seem to be interested in sightseeing.

Hearing Qin Yu's lousy reason, Lin Xi's mind was full of slander. Hadn't he already settled the matter at noon, and now that he was here, there was nothing else to deal with. He was just in a hurry to go back and sleep, but Lin Xi did not do anything out of the ordinary either.

Although Lin Xi and the others had not entered the scenic area of the Old Forest of Redbud, even the scenery outside was extremely beautiful. It was already late autumn, but it was still green here, and the natural atmosphere was dense, brimming with vitality.

Lin Xi even saw some local families selling their local specialties in the mountains, such as bamboo shoots, bamboo crafts, coarse grains in the mountains, and so on. These local specialties were all made by the local families themselves, it definitely wasn't some kind of mass city product.

However, it was slightly more expensive than the city itself. This was normal in every tourist scenic spot, so it wasn't strange at all.

However, it was clear that girls had an innate desire to shop, and their desire to buy new things was even more intense. Once they saw it, they would always want to take it for themselves.

For example, right now, Xia Qi was pulling Zhang Zhiyan over to each of the stalls by the side of the road. Whether it was specialties or bamboo crafts, they were all in his hands.

Not only would Lin Xi pay for it, he would also need to carry his bag. However, Lin Xi could tell that Ang Youyong was also happy inside, and there was no need to help him share the burden when he saw this scene.

At that time, Lin Xi was extremely relaxed and content, with nothing in his hands, he just needed to follow behind Ang Youyong and protect him, but when he saw the specialties of the stalls, he had a few thoughts in his mind.

Lin Xi thought, should he buy some for his mother to have a taste of? He thought about how he had already worked outside for more than a year, and it seemed that he had never bought any gift for his mother, that was something he shouldn't do. In the past, it could be said that he did not have any money, but now that he had the money, he should at least buy some to cheer his mother up.

Thus, Lin Xi walked in front of the stall that sold specialties and carefully selected a few local specialties. After that, he asked the owner to wrap them up well, and the package was slightly more exquisite.
