于是,姐妹二人分头去通知乡亲们,交代他们夜里去伏牛山下牵牛。夜里,天上没有月亮,也没有星星,山前山后漆黑一片,看不到一点亮光,姐姐拉着妹妹从山前转到山后,听了听,一点动静也没有,姐姐对妹妹说:“不要放弃,我们再等等。”就这样等到了五更,忽然听见山里面“哗啦啦”作响,山北坡放出一道耀眼的金光,姐妹俩急忙朝发光的地方跑去,只见那洞眼只有手指头那么粗,顺着洞眼往里看,见到内有一张金方桌,方桌上整齐地摆着一排排馒头大小的金牛。妹妹忙把银喇叭拿出来插进山眼,姐姐忙念:“伏牛山,哗哗啦,开山要我这银喇叭。”念了三遍,山眼慢慢变大了,但只容一个人钻进去,姐姐闪身就进去了,妹妹也跟着进去了。姐姐一进去就吹起了银喇叭,顿时桌上的金牛都变活了,它们伸伸腿,抖抖毛,跳下桌子来,就都变成了大牛,它们顺着山眼往外冲,当最后一头牛刚刚伸出头时,东方已经微微泛红了,山眼慢慢变小了,这一下要急坏了姐妹俩,姐妹二人合力推牛屁股,就是推不动。 v 再说乡亲们,他们听见喇叭响,就纷纷往伏牛山跑,只见一头头牛满山坡跑,他们跑上去,一人牵一头牛,心里好感激姐妹二人,都想去谢谢她们,就是找不到人影。这时有人发现被卡住的那头牛,大家有的扯牛头,有的扯牛脚,使命往外拽,就是拽不出,后来有人往牛鼻子上套了个鼻圈,再在鼻圈上拴了根长绳,大家齐心协力地拉,牛被拉疼了,一急,四蹄一蹬就出来了,山眼马上就合拢了,姐妹俩被关在了山里。
这两段维基的解释我摘编一下。 Most morning glory flowers unravel into full bloom in the early morning. The flowers usually start to fade a few hours before the "petals" start showing visible curling. They prefer full solar exposure throughout the day, and mesic soils. Some morning glories, such as Ipomoea muricata, are night-blooming flowers.
In some places, such as Australian bushland, some species of morning glories develop thick roots and tend to grow in dense thickets. They can quickly spread by way of long, creeping stems. By crowding out, blanketing and smothering other plants, morning glory has turned into a serious invasive weed problem.
In cultivation, most are treated as perennial plants in frost-free areas and as annual plants in colder climates, but some species tolerate winter cold. There are some species which are strictly annual (e.g. Ipomoea nil), producing many seeds, and some perennial species (e.g. I. indica) which are propagated by cuttings. Some moonflowers, which flower at night, are also in the morning glory family.
Because of their fast growth, twining habit, attractive flowers, and tolerance for poor, dry soils, some morning glories are excellent vines for creating summer shade on building walls when trellised, thus keeping the building cooler and reducing heating and cooling costs.
Popular varieties in contemporary western cultivation include 'Sunspots', 'Heavenly Blue', the moonflower, the cypress vine, and the cardinal climber. The cypress vine is a hybrid, with the cardinal climber as one parent.
每年都会出来,每天都会开。
开的漂亮,又不娇气。
