话说唐朝时期,有个名叫李白的诗人,他一生豪放不羁,喜欢游历名山大川。一次,他独自一人在深山老林中探险,不料迷失了方向,天色渐暗,李白又累又饿,十分沮丧。正当他感到绝望之际,突然听到远处传来阵阵犬吠声,李白心中一喜,他知道附近有人家。他顺着声音走去,终于找到了一户人家。这家主人热情好客,给了李白食物和住处,让他好好休息。第二天,主人带他下山,李白顺利地回到了家,化险为夷。
During the Tang Dynasty, there was a poet named Li Bai, known for his unrestrained nature and love of traveling. One day, while exploring a deep mountain forest alone, he unexpectedly lost his way. As dusk fell, Li Bai was tired and hungry, feeling very discouraged. Just as he was about to give up hope, he suddenly heard the sound of barking dogs in the distance. Li Bai's spirits lifted; he knew there were people nearby. Following the sound, he eventually found a hospitable household. The residents kindly offered Li Bai food and shelter, allowing him to rest. The next day, they guided him down the mountain, and Li Bai safely returned home, having successfully navigated the danger.
