A group of musicians were travelling around the country, trying to make a living from their concerts. But with so many problems in the land, no one felt like listening to music. “But music can help overcome any problem,” objected the musicians, without anyone paying them the slightest attention. So the musicians tried to find out the reason why it wouldn抰 rain. It was very strange, because the nsky was overcast (阴天的), but no one could provide an answer. “It’s been cloudy like this for many months, but not a single drop of rain has fallen,” people would tell them.

　　“Don’t worry, we’ll bring rain to the country,” the musicians responded, and they began rehearsing (排练，预演) for a concert at the summit of the highest mountain. Everyone who heard the music was seized by curiosity and went up the mountain.

　　From their instruments came small, playful musical notes (音符), which rose and rose into the clouds. The music was so joyous, happy and fun, and the notes started playing with the clouds, running here and there, up and down, and the whole sky turned into one big game of a tickle (胳肢，呵痒). Before long, the giant clouds were thundering with laughter. The musicians continued playing joyfully and a few minutes later the clouds, crying with laughter, washed the little country below with their precious tears, bringing happiness to all.

　　And in memory of that musical rain, everyone in the land learned how to play an instrument and, taking turns, would go up the mountain every a few days to bring joy to the clouds with their beautiful songs.
