It's really uncertain to fly on the snow. It's a feeling to win the horse's hiss and the wind's feeling. The wild shop hears the chicken to startle the daydream, the barren village hears the rain to break the remnant even more. What's the matter with you in the past 20 years? I didn't dare to study in leisure to avoid fame. "
