Complainingly, he glanced at Tang Luo. Elder Xu Ying grumbled, "You wouldn't know, but today is the Mong Xia jumping the moon festival. Many Mosuo people have come to the village, and they will leave tomorrow..."
"Mong Xia jumping the moon festival?" Tang Luo, who considered himself well-read, heard of this festival for the first time, so he inquired, "Is there anything special about this day?"
"You know about the month of mid-spring, right?" Elder Xu Ying chuckled, "The so-called month of mid-spring sees men and women, at this time, running free without restraint. This Mong Xia jumping the moon festival is a custom of the Mt. Immortal Blue clans."
Although Tang Luo did not know what Mong Xia jumping the moon was, after listening to the explanation of the month of mid-spring, he and Ji Fu roughly understood the inclination of this festival—nothing more than some sort of mass wedding and outdoor coupling custom.
