The story of night primrose

Legend has it that there was a teenager in ancient times whose flute sound was very beautiful and unknown. One moonlit summer evening, he leaned against a tree and played his flute. Suddenly a beautiful fairy came down from the clouds. The fairy said: Because Chang'e heard his flute and liked it very much, she invited the young man to be a musician in the moon palace.

Who knows the youth but nostalgia mortal world, and asked the fairy to delay a day of the moon palace, but the fairy did not agree, only took off the jade hairpin on his head to give him as a souvenir. Fairy in the air threw to him, the youth did not catch, and how to find also can not find the jade hairpin fell on the ground.

As a result, the hairpin became a flower, and the youth remained forever in the world. This flower not only gave off fragrance at night, but also gave off a fragrant smell under the bright moonlight. Therefore, it also had the reputation of "night lover".

The Legend of Evening Primrose

A long time ago, there was a fairy in the heavenly palace. She was turned into a seed by the Queen Mother because she violated the love precepts. She was scattered in the courtyard of a deserted temple in the mortal world and guarded the Buddha statue year after year. As the days went by, the seeds gradually sprouted, showed leaves, and bloomed with dew, dying with the sunset. Boring life can only make her narcissistic, tears all day long, even if occasionally beautiful scenery across, but also can not fill her life with a trace of wonderful.

Finally, one night, a firefly flew to her side, dancing and singing around her, bringing her the only happiness in the mortal world. Only fireflies can read her mind and make her smile happily. By fate, they fell in love. That summer she was really happy. However, perhaps, love is not deep enough, commitment is extremely heavy, when everything should not happen when it is about to appear, there will be a premonition of fate. "This temple seems to be getting smaller and smaller." Night primrose always sighed helplessly.

She will never forget that memorable conversation.

"In this temple, you are still my favorite."

"Then, once you leave the temple gate, you can fly freely. Even the sky will be filled with your footprints."

"There are too many stars in the sky. Each star is like a bright needle. It will pierce me with holes and scars."

"But only a few stars are shining."

"Because the rest of the stars are rusty, I can't avoid the pain of acupuncture."

Firefly always said a lot of things that made her happy, but she couldn't understand the voice of firefly.

Oath in a specific environment can be moved. Knowing that it wouldn't last forever, she wanted to give everything for her persistence.

Summer is almost over. On a beautiful night, she finally mustered up the courage to change the world, let her flowers bloom at night, waiting for fireflies to come and see her bloom. That night, stars filled the sky and flowers filled the temple, but fireflies never appeared.

She would never know that the firefly was merely an emissary sent from the Queen Mother to plant a complex for her. If she could stay away from this relationship, she could go back to her old world. However, when true love comes, who can dodge it?

Since then, every night in summer, she has waited for the fireflies to fly back with beautiful flowers, but she can never wait until that day.
