Chapter 221 Something terrible has happened. This chapter is really scary!
Chapter 221 (Update) Something terrible has happened. This time it’s really scary!
After everyone listened to Lin Feng's story,
In an instant——
A creepy feeling.
Suddenly it rose from everyone's heart! The so-called Peach Blossom Spring——
It turned out to be a complete ghost town?!
"This this……"
After hearing Lin Feng's story, Nini couldn't calm down for a long time.
Even though she has always been quite courageous,
When she heard the story told by Lin Feng, she couldn't help but feel a chill on her back.
“How is this possible???”
Just relying on a few words——
So they directly created the "Taohuayuan", an ideal city that everyone longs for.
Describes a place full of resentment and full of human heads.
The Land of the Dead!??!
Lin Feng's remarks,
It's really a bit hard to accept.
"Isn't this too exaggerated?"
Peng Peng suddenly felt a chill on his back.
It feels like in this quiet and peaceful forest,
It seemed as if there were invisible eyes hiding in the dark, staring at me silently.
The Fairy Sister swallowed her saliva and began to carefully recall everything described in the book.
Not only what Lin Feng described, but also through imagination,
Fairy Sister also recalled many other things.
The more I think back,
The more she felt that Lin Feng's "Peach Blossom Spring" was actually a ghost town -
This is actually true...
She even derived another version based on what Lin Feng said...
At the beginning of "Peach Blossom Spring", it is described like this:
"During the Taiyuan period of the Jin Dynasty, people from Wuling made a living by fishing. They would walk along the stream and forget how far they had gone."
You know, in ancient times, most industries were passed down from generation to generation, so this fisherman probably started fishing since he was a child. A local fisherman fishing in the river should be very familiar with the nearby waters.
The possibility of getting lost is very small, but -
The fisherman got lost. Why?
If it is not intentional, then there is only one explanation left.
The fisherman encountered an evil spirit...
That’s why you get lost in the waters you’re familiar with…
Let’s look at the second sentence in the book:
"Suddenly, I came across a peach blossom forest that stretched for several hundred feet along the banks. There were no other trees in the forest, but the grass was fresh and fragrant, and the fallen petals were colorful. The fisherman was very surprised and walked forward again, wanting to explore the whole forest."
According to folklore, what is the function of peach blossoms? To ward off evil spirits!
Generally speaking, peach blossoms appear as a barrier separating the worlds of yin and yang.
Peach blossoms fall in early April.
And it was at this time that the Qingming Festival came.
Tao Yuanming, what is this metaphor for? Could it be that
This is a hint to people that -
Only during the Qingming Festival, when the gates of hell are wide open, can we reach this paradise?
Let’s look at the third line of the poem:
"When the forest ends and the water source is reached, there is a mountain with a small opening that seems to have light. We abandon the boat and enter through the opening. It is very narrow at first, but then it can be passed. After walking a few dozen steps, it suddenly becomes clear."
The fisherman saw the cave and went in. At first the path was very narrow.
Slowly, the further you go to the back, the wider the space becomes. When I first read this, I didn't think it made much sense. But I can analyze it in light of the historical background at that time:
During the Wei and Jin Dynasties, in order to prevent thieves from stealing tombs,
Most tomb passages are narrow in front and wide in the back, but for the sake of auspiciousness, it is impossible for the ancients to build villages that are narrow in front and wide in the back.
Since it is impossible to build a village house that is narrow in front and wide in the back.
So, what does this mean?
This means that the fisherman did not enter the Peach Blossom Spring, but a tomb passage leading to another world...
"The land is flat and spacious, the houses are neat, there are good fields, beautiful ponds, mulberry trees and bamboos."
This sentence is saying -
The houses in Taohuayuan are neatly arranged in order. So, the question is, in ancient times——
Only in cities can housing construction be planned in such an orderly manner.
It's just a village.
How can the villagers plan the construction of the houses in the village in an orderly manner with their own house-building skills?
if we assume,
The houses in the village were not built by the villagers.
So who built these neatly planned buildings?
At this moment, combined with the historical background at that time, Sister Fairy directly thought of a terrifying possibility -
The ancients attached great importance to tombs.
The construction of tombs is often more sophisticated and stricter than the houses where living people live. Could it be that what the fisherman saw was not a house at all?
Was it only because he was blinded that he had the illusion of seeing the house?
In fact, all he saw was——
They were not houses, but neatly divided graves.
"He said that his ancestors fled to this remote place with his wife and fellow villagers to escape the chaos during the Qin Dynasty, and never left again, thus becoming isolated from the outside world. When asked what era it was, he had no idea of the Han Dynasty, let alone the Wei and Jin Dynasties."
This sentence!
This is the key to the weirdness of the book!
The people in Taohuayuan said that their ancestors moved here to escape the war in the Qin Dynasty and never left again, so they knew nothing about the change of dynasties.
However, five hundred years had passed between the Eastern Jin Dynasty and the Qin Dynasty.
Why in these five hundred years,
Why do people in Huayuan dress the same as people outside?
If the people in the Peach Blossom Spring have never been out, then why do they dress the same as those in the outside world?
There is only one possible explanation.
The clothes they wore were not woven by themselves, but were burned for them by their descendants during memorial ceremonies.
The villagers in Peach Blossom Spring are not human beings at all—they are ghosts...
When the fairy sister slowly uttered the word "ghost" from her mouth, in an instant——
Everyone got goosebumps instantly!
More than goose bumps, at this moment——
Everyone, chills down your spine!
"The first one was still a human after all, but how come the second one turned out to be a ghost?"
Sister Zifeng was so scared that she hugged Sister Shenxian's arm:
"Sister, please stop talking. The more you talk, the more scared I get."
"Ahhhhh!!"
In order to hide his inner fear, Peng Peng just jumped up on the spot.
Trying to dispel the fear in my heart in this way:
“My three views are ruined, my three views are ruined, my three views are ruined!!!”
"The Peach Blossom Spring is not about the Peach Blossom Spring, but a complete ghost story?!"
“I can’t accept this!!!”
After hearing what the fairy sister said, although the weather was very cold,
But cold sweat still started to flow down Hu Ge's forehead.
He looked at the Fairy Sister with a little fear: "That makes sense."
"Since there has never been a place like Peach Blossom Spring, why have the villagers been wearing the same clothes as people outside for five hundred years?"
"Then these clothes can only be burned by their descendants."
Let's put aside the doubts about the clothes for now.
If the villagers really had no contact with the outside world for 500 years,
Then, such a small village would have been depopulated long ago due to inbreeding.
Even direct extinction.
But why did the villagers in this village not reduce their population due to inbreeding, but instead -
The number of people is increasing and they are getting healthier?
what does that mean?
This means that these villagers are most likely not human, but ghosts!
Because only a sinister person could go against ethical principles like this.
Hugo was sweating profusely.
I started to recall the details in the book.
"He then wanted to go home, prepare wine and kill chickens for food. The others invited each other to their homes and served wine and food."
Whether it is chicken or wine, they are all traditional Chinese customs and must be offered as sacrifices during funerals!
Could it be that during the days when the fisherman was in Peach Blossom Spring—
The food is not meat and wine, but a sacrifice?
"After leaving, he found his boat and followed the path, marking it everywhere. When he arrived at the county, he went to the governor and told him what had happened. The governor immediately sent people to follow him and search for the places marked, but they got lost and could not find the way again."
Since the village chief has clearly told the fisherman,
After you come out, don't reveal the existence of Peach Blossom Spring to the outside world.
So why was the first thing the fisherman did after he came out to look for the prefect?
Could it be that he also realized something was wrong during this process?
Since fishermen can get out of this Peach Blossom Spring, why do the people of this Peach Blossom Spring, who have lived there for five hundred years, never go out?
Could it be that in these five hundred years——
Is there no one who wants to get out of the Peach Blossom Spring? This is obviously impossible.
It is based on this situation that
Instantly, Hugo thought of a possibility -
Could it be that the people in the Peach Blossom Spring are unwilling to come out?
But they,
Can’t get out at all?
Because the dead cannot leave their own graves!
The moment Hugo figured out this possibility, his scalp went numb!
Everyone present was immediately shocked!
Taohuayuan is not the ideal city in fairy tales.
It turned out to be a complete country of the dead...
An atmosphere of terror spread around everyone!
This kind of terror spread quickly, so that the entire small stone pond was filled with an eerie chill!
When everyone was terrified,
Director Yan Min pulled out the painting "Notes on the Small Rock Pool" that Lin Feng had just written by the pond from his backpack.
He just shouted to everyone in a trembling voice:
"Something bad is going to happen!"
………………
