What does the bird Phoenix look like? No one has seen the image of the phoenix with his own eyes. The ancients have left many records in various ancient books. Phoenix, as the king of birds, is beautiful and noble in appearance and posture. So far, China people have not made any conclusion about the appearance and posture of the Phoenix, which is also the mysterious charm of the Phoenix. The farmer named Guo Cunsuo, who happened to find "golden phoenix" while herding sheep in the mountains, came from Liuhe Village, Shanxi Province and grew up in the mountains. Now he is sixty years old.
For a long time, Guo Cunsuo has been farming, herding sheep and collecting medicine for a living. Therefore, for the outside material world, Lao Guo is not very yearning. Living in the mountains for most of my life, accompanied by green mountains and green waters, fish, insects, flowers and birds, the elderly are also very fond of nature. Lao Guo especially likes all kinds of birds in the mountains, listening to insects and birds singing, even just herding sheep can make people feel relaxed and relaxed! As usual, Lao Guoman Village is herding sheep in the deep mountains. Suddenly, Lao Guo heard a series of sounds coming from the bushes around him. Driven by curiosity, he walked gently. When he looked carefully, he found two very beautiful birds in the bushes! Just like golden phoenix.
This discovery surprised Lao Guo. Every day after that, he will appear nearby on time, secretly observe these two beautiful birds, and scatter some rice in the places where birds often appear. Later, Lao Guo simply lived in a nearby cave and used rice all the way to attract birds, attracting the beautiful "Phoenix" to a fixed place. With the increasing number of "Phoenix", Lao Guo's method finally gathered dozens of "Phoenix". In this way, feeding birds in the mountains every day has become a compulsory course in Lao Guo.
Lao Guo has been like this every day for four years, rain or shine. Aunt Guo has always been very opposed to her wife's "doing nothing." Feeding the birds every day not only delays making money to support the family, but also costs rice to feed the birds, but Lao Guo doesn't think so. By chance, a photographer who went into the mountains to collect the scenery accidentally saw Lao Guo feeding Phoenix, which made him feel incredible. The photographer told Lao Guo excitedly that the bird he had fed was called "golden phoenix" and the scientific name was "Golden Rooster with Red Belly", which was a national second-class protected wild animal. Because of this, many people always think that the golden rooster with a red belly is the prototype of the phoenix in fairy tales.
After the news came out, many photographers came to the mountains one after another to shoot "golden phoenix". However, this animal, the golden pheasant, has always been very vigilant. As long as it finds a stranger or hears a sound, it will run away quickly. Golden pheasant will only appear in two time periods in a day, so photographers who come here to shoot golden pheasants will choose to shoot some local folk customs nearby, and lunch will be settled in Guo's hometown.
Now Lao Guo also has an unexpected harvest. With the increasing number of photographers and tourists, Uncle Guo's wife simply opened a farmhouse in the mountains. Farmhouse brings more income to the family than the income from herding sheep and collecting herbs in Lao Guo, which also enables the Lao Guo family to live a stable life. However, for Lao Guo, birds are still his heart's desire. After earning money to support his family, he will still spend part of his income to improve the food for golden phoenix. This kind of interdependence and harmonious coexistence between man and nature is really enviable.
