At this time, the seemingly cold moon hangs high in the bare sky, making the night sky look very empty. Snow-white moonlight falls evenly. When it falls on the water with cold waves, it makes people feel lonely and mysterious.

The alley looks deeper and seems endless. This is a big village, with more than a dozen deep alleys and winding alleys between them. In this moonlight, the whole village looks like a maze. There are Woods, haystacks and abandoned sheds in front of the lane.

Now summer is a complete summer. As soon as the sun appeared, invisible heat spread between heaven and earth. When the sun rolled like a golden wheel and rolled straight over people's heads, heaven and earth seemed to shine. The reed leaves by the river rolled in the sun, and all the plants could not resist the heat wave and bowed their heads drowsily. Occasionally, people rush by on the main road, as if they will get sunburned if they stay in this sunshine for a long time.

These arrangements, without a trace of deliberate, seem to be where the campus was originally, so it was. This straw house doesn't look tall, but it has a big roof and is spacious inside. This kind of straw house is actually very expensive. It is not made of ordinary straw or wheat straw, but made of thatch on the beach 300 miles away. Thatched grass grows vigorously on the beach, one tree grows very resilient, blown by the sea breeze and exposed by the sun, without shelter. When the sun shines, it shines like copper wire, and when the sea breeze blows, it can make a metallic sound. The house built with this grass is immortal.
