Chapter 56 Living people eat the offerings
That's right!If this is really a paradise.
And it has been isolated from the outside world for 500 years.
It lasted from the Qin Dynasty to the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
Then the people here should be wearing clothes from the Qin Dynasty.
It should be very different from the costumes of the Eastern Jin Dynasty.
Not to mention that the Qin Dynasty and the Eastern Jin Dynasty were separated by more than 500 years.
Even ancient people from the same period may have dressed differently.
Not to mention different dynasties, 500 years have passed.
It is impossible to wear the same clothes.
Therefore, the author did not simply describe what he saw when he wrote this sentence.
After clothes, there is also the language of communication.
"We all know that more than 500 years have passed."
"The language will also change, especially the accent."
"It's like our Mandarin now, in the last century."
"In less than 100 years, things are already different."
"If the people in Peach Blossom Spring are really from the Qin Dynasty."
"Then what they said and the words they used should be from 500 years ago."
"And the fisherman is a person from 500 years later, after people on both sides saw it."
"Isn't it strange that there was no difficulty in communicating in the first place?" Ye Zhen further pointed out the unreasonableness here.
That's right, it's exactly what Ye Zhen said.
In some remote places in China.
Don't say that it has been 500 years, even if you are from the next village.
People in the two villages may have different accents, so they may not understand what the other person is saying.
Something that seems outrageous.
In fact, this is the reality, with different pronunciations and customs.
"Then now the fisherman can communicate very smoothly with the people in Peach Blossom Spring."
"Suggesting they may not be communicating through physical means."
“Instead of using sounds to understand each other.”
"It's possible that communication is through spiritual power."
Speaking is actually vibrating the air through the vocal cords.
This allows others to hear what you say.
Sound is a way of transmitting information.
There are also hand gestures that can also spread information.
But one relies on sound and the other relies on images.
The fisherman may also communicate through spirit.
After all, Peach Blossom Spring is most likely the world after death.
In this way, the use of mental power as a medium for communication can be explained.
In fact, it is similar to the method of using mental power to communicate.
This kind of person with a special way of communication is called a telepath.
It is a kind of special function.
For example, twin children can be in a room isolated from each other.
Communicate in a special way.
This is commonly known as telepathy.
Information can be communicated without physical means, sounds or images.
After hearing Ye Zhen's explanation, the audience couldn't help but gasp.
"I didn't expect that "Peach Blossom Spring" is full of foreshadowing."
"It's so scary. Isn't this a hundred times scarier than the usual ghost stories?"
"It's so scary to think about it! Why didn't I think of these aspects when I was in school?"
"Do you think it's possible that the people in this Peach Blossom Spring are people who died in the Jin Dynasty, so they dress like fishermen?"
This audience’s idea is actually not unreasonable.
Immediately afterwards, Ye Zhen continued to recite, "When I ask what era this is, I don't know that there was a Han Dynasty, regardless of the Wei and Jin Dynasties. This person is sighing after hearing everything he said."
"That's the translation." "The people in the village asked the fisherman what dynasty it was now. They didn't know there was the Han Dynasty, let alone the Wei and Jin dynasties."
"The fisherman told everything he knew, and the villagers sighed and felt sorry for him."
"We can deduce it from here."
"These villagers have been isolated from the world for a long time, and the clothes they are wearing are very different."
"Maybe it was burned to them by their descendants, so it looks similar to what fishermen wear."
If not, they would be the people who came to this afterlife after the death of the Jin Dynasty.
How could it be possible not to know about Han and Wei and Jin?
"The rest of the people went back to their homes, where they all had wine and food.
Stop for a few days and resign.
One of the sayings goes: "It's not enough for outsiders." 'This is the last sentence of the third paragraph. "
"The rest of the people invited the fisherman to their homes and entertained him with their own food and wine."
"After the fisherman stayed for a few days, he said goodbye to the people in the village."
"People in the village told him: The situation here is not worth telling outsiders."
"This is also extremely unreasonable." Ye Zhen said after finishing the translation.
In the studio, Ye Zhen was explaining "The Story of Peach Blossom Spring" alone on the stage.
Kong Sisi and Director Luo in the audience kept their eyes and mouths wide open.
Not even a moment to relax.
Both of them have received nine years of compulsory education.
Of course, I also studied "Peach Blossom Spring".
When the two of them first heard Ye Zhen's explanation, they had the same mentality as most of the audience.
Can this "Peach Blossom Spring" be related to ghost stories? Is this bullying them for not having read the book?Have you never studied "Peach Blossom Spring"?
But Kong Sisi and Director Luo had questions, doubts, shocks, sudden realizations, and chills down their backs from the very beginning.
By now I was numb, and I was slowly starting to feel relieved.
"No wonder he was able to turn the tide." Director Luo sighed.
Kong Sisi was silent. She saw the gulf-like gap between herself and Ye Zhen in Ye Zhen.
"Is this Ye Zhen?" Kong Sisi looked at Ye Zhen on the single sofa, eyes flashing continuously.
The audience was puzzled after reading the translated content.
"Is there something wrong here too?"
"Isn't it just to invite the fisherman to eat and drink?"
"Then ask the fishermen to keep it a secret and not to tell anyone about this place."
"They should be afraid that people from the outside world will come and disturb them."
"Yes, yes, they just want to escape the world and have been pure for so long. Of course they don't want people from the outside world to come and disturb their pure life."
"It must be like this, why did you treat the fisherman to eat so many good things?"
After several rounds of edification and shock from Ye Zhen.
Some viewers have also become smarter and begun to learn to think divergently.
But this is not something that can be accomplished overnight.
But now Ye Zhen has planted a small seed in their hearts.
"The first discord."
"These people from Peach Blossom Land came here as refugees, and they are all farmers."
"Peasants in ancient times, except for landlords, were very poor."
“Every farming season depends on the weather.”
"So the life of farmers has always been very difficult. It's good to be able to make ends meet."
"But you see, they can actually invite an outsider, a fisherman, to feast and drink."
"Grain in ancient times is a precious thing. If it can be used to make wine, it is a very luxurious thing."
"Why are people here so rich?"
"Because it is very likely that what they eat is tribute!"
"Those wines and foods are actually used in sacrifices." Ye Zhen spat out word by word.
In other words, the fishermen eat what the dead eat?Did you eat the offerings? After hearing this, everyone felt that it was late at night, even if the air conditioner was not turned on.
I also felt a dark wind blowing from an unknown place.
