Into the village fell into the water when the days have been completely dark, the driver took me to his house to open the hotels and booked in the upstairs window open you can see the lake from the hotel went to the lake is nothing but 20-step, on the Here, I know the first one Mosuo girl.
Hotels are equipped with restaurant, but the dining room had been filled with tourists, I have no way into the sitting. A girl came to ask: "Do not you eat?"
She looks more white, not like other Mosuo, I looked at her curiously, without answering her question and ask a question to: "You are Mosuo people?"
"Yes, like it?"
"Unlike, you looked so white."
"Other tourists said so. Hey, you in the end whether or not to eat that?" She was asked to pretend a little angry.

"Well." She simply answered, turning to a 56-year-old girl said a few words, that little girl came skipping pin down on my hand and took me away. Na Shaonv, I turned around and asked: "What's your name?"
"If you do not go tomorrow, I'll tell you." She smiled, and did not directly answer my question.
The little girl took me drag them to the rear courtyard in front of a house, crossed the high threshold, see the house has a fireplace, above hung a pot, cook the inside I do not know what. An old woman and the girl are sitting around the fireplace a few ago, the old woman saw me beckoning me to sit beside the fireplace, but also hands a bowl to eat me. Mosuo old woman wearing a traditional dress, it should be his grandmother, and she does not speak Chinese, gestures let me eat, but also looking at me kindly smile. Several other little girl from teens to more than 20 years of age, strangely enough, is not a boy.

Mosuo authentic meal eaten dinner, went to the lake, now that there are a lot of tour groups, are pulling teams to participate in a bonfire, I am slightly wrinkled brow a bit, do not like to join in the fun with them, alone in the lake stroll. Suffused with a deep blue sky, you can almost see the side of the universe, and sometimes there is a cloud drifting away, do not see a sky full of stars and I pray that tomorrow is a big sunny.

One has long been out of the window of birds wake up, walk out the door standing in the corridor on the second floor can be beheld Lugu Lake, the sky-stemmed white clouds shadow of the lake, a few birds in the lake cruise, everything is so calm and peaceful. Quietly watched the sun slowly rises, clouds slipped across the front surface of the lake, and let the wind whistle from the hill side of light ringing swing to my face, a girl riding a horse while speeding from my ground floor, we do fight each other a greeting, as if long been recognized.
The weather had been clear up, so the lovely scenery How can we allow to miss, come to Lake Shibu forward, the lake under the waves Linlin shining in the sun, cool breeze blowing bursts of refreshing, much of the Mosuo people has already begun a day's work , 2 Zhu Caochuan with visitors to the lake, cross it out, in such a beautiful scenery in the boating lake to enjoy the lake. Riding on the ground can also be seen in robust posture Moso boy, and no one would like to race on.
To move forward along the lake, leaving the crowd noise, you can quietly watch what in fact do not have to do, find a dry shore, lying on the ground, so that the lazy sun, listening to the cheerful voice of the lake, to mind the freedom to speeding, is a good treat. Shuibao Mosuo people find some of the chat, she was hungry and then went back to hotel to find food, like a pig easy to satisfy the same happiness.
Back to the hotel, took me to dinner yesterday to see little girls are games, went over with her mad. She told Mary beads, yesterday refused to tell me the name of her sister, I finally know her name - Bima. Mary beads is a very lively little girl, she also taught me to sing songs Mosuo now Mosuo children from an early age learn Chinese, I let Mary Pearl taught me to Moso language.

Mary did not wait until the beads open, next to a girl would say a four syllable word, Pearl Mary looked at her strangely back with Moso language and her conversation, and sentence, and then turn around and repeat with certainty that words. I have to say a word to a large laugh, I began to suspect that this innocent little girl was that they used to and I joked, pretending to punish her, and she flew to flee without a trace, Jalan way everyone laugh up, I say Mosuo also learn words, I could not help but laugh to hear, anyway I can not learn the last sentence.
Bima time came and I said: "If no new visitors to come to the evening, take you to dance."

Bima asked me: "Do you find Assia it?"
"I do not, how to find?"
"Come on, I'll teach you." Bima pulled my hand: "If you fancy the girl in the dance took her hand and quietly button three times, if she spots a nod, that is agreed, you night they will go away with her marriage. "Bima deducted in my palm three times, said:" In this way, learned it? "
I quickly nodded, Bima laugh: "learn really fast, at night take you dancing, fancy who want to seize opportunities."
