Story Summary

Explore the garden full of magical plants.

In a small town in Germany, there was a legendary magic garden. This garden was surrounded by a high wall, on which green vines were climbing all over, and occasionally some unknown little flowers would peek out. The children in the town were all very curious about this garden, but no one had ever really entered it.

There was a girl named Xiaoli. She was extremely brave and full of curiosity. One day, while Xiaoli was playing outside the garden wall, she found a small hole. This hole was just big enough for her slender body to squeeze through. Xiaoli hesitated for a moment, but finally, unable to resist her inner curiosity, she carefully wriggled into the garden.

Xiaoli enters the garden and sees strange flowers

As soon as Xiaoli entered the garden, she was astonished by the sight in front of her. The flowers here were completely different from those outside. Each flower seemed to come from a fairy - tale world. There were flowers that shone like small lanterns, and others that made pleasant sounds, as if singing to welcome her. Xiaoli happily shuttled among the flower clusters. She reached out and gently touched those flowers, feeling as if she were touching soft clouds.

Xiaoli continued walking deeper into the garden. She saw a huge tree. The trunk was so thick that several people couldn't even hug it. The tree was full of all kinds of fruits, some like stars, and others like colorful glass balls.

Xiaoli looks up under the big tree

Xiaoli looked up at the big tree, her heart full of awe. She wanted to taste the fruits, so she found a long branch and gently knocked down a fruit that looked like a star. Xiaoli took a bite, and immediately a sweet taste filled her mouth. She felt full of strength, as if she could fly.

Suddenly, Xiaoli heard the gurgling sound of flowing water. She followed the direction of the sound and found a glittering stream. The stream water was crystal clear. There were many shiny stones at the bottom of the stream, and some small fish were swimming merrily in the water.

Xiaoli watches the small fish by the stream

Xiaoli crouched by the stream and put her hand into the water. The small fish were not afraid of her at all and swam around her fingers. When Xiaoli was having a great time, suddenly she heard a voice, "Hello, Xiaoli." Xiaoli was startled and looked around, but she couldn't see anyone. "Who is talking?" Xiaoli asked. The voice replied, "I am the guardian of this garden. You are the first child to come here. Everything here is magical, but you can't take anything away, nor can you tell others about the existence of this garden."

Xiaoli nodded and said, "I understand. This garden is so beautiful. I will keep the secret." Xiaoli played in the garden for a while longer, and then she wriggled out through the small hole along the way she came in. Since then, Xiaoli often came to the outside of the garden wall, reminiscing about the wonderful time in the garden.
