For some reason, the moment Hu Rong saw the trending news on Weibo, she suddenly felt an inexplicable palpitation in her heart!
He didn't know why.
Somehow, she seemed to have determined from the bottom of her heart that the appearance of Guan Zhong's tomb in the Spring and Autumn Period must have a great connection with the legendary Peach Blossom Land!
At this moment, a video of a Peking University professor lecturing at Peach Blossom Spring appeared on Weibo's trending searches.
These two things happened at the same time. It was a little too coincidental.
She suddenly let out a low cry and turned her phone screen to Professor Murong.
However, at this moment, Professor Murong was holding a bamboo slip that had just been unearthed in his hand and was studying it with full concentration.
It was as if he did not hear her voice at all.
Seeing Professor Murong's frown, Hu Rong wanted to say something but hesitated.
After hesitating for a moment, she didn't dare to disturb him.
Instead, he slowly turned his hand over and clicked on a related trending topic.
With a slight movement of her fingers, she browsed through the short trending news from top to bottom.
Then, her eyes flashed with curiosity.
At the end of the article, there was even a live video of this Peking University public lecture!
Without thinking, she clicked on the video and the screen lit up.
At the beginning of the video, countless lights and shadows spread out and instantly enveloped the scene of the lecture theater!
She couldn't help but widen her eyes and let out a cry of surprise as if she was talking to herself.
"This is…live VR technology? It's too realistic!"
As far as the eye could see, the peach blossoms were resplendent all over the mountains and plains, the monkeys on both sides of the river could not stop crying, and the spring water of a river carried a small boat towards the east!
The video was mixed with the exclamations of the students who were listening to the lecture.
It seemed to be verifying that the immersive VR image in the video was definitely not fake, nor was it some kind of synthetic technology. It was a real performance!
However, at this moment, Hu Rong's gaze was completely attracted by the ever-changing illusory scenery. She had no time to care about anything else and directly ignored the question of whether the video was fake.
Along with the unpredictable and ever-changing VR image, a voice as faint as water was heard.
"The reason why it's called the Road to the Netherworld is because the passage that the fishermen take is actually a tomb passage!”
There was a hint of laziness in the voice at first, but it suddenly rose in pitch at the end. The tone was still low, but it made the listeners feel a sense of shock.
Hu Rong could not help but be stunned.
At this moment, the VR screen froze, and her gaze fell on the white-robed professor standing on the podium.
The video was secretly taken. Because of the angle, only half of the person on the podium could be seen. The back of a student in front of the lecture blocked the face of the lecturer.
Hu Rong frowned slightly, but she was not in a hurry to see the person's appearance.
Because she knew.
The famous and fortunate professors of Peking University had photos and information on the official website.
After watching the video, he searched for the words 'Peking University Professor Wang Xu'. Naturally, he would be able to find out all the relevant information about this Professor Wang Xu.
Then, she focused all her attention on watching the video.
"The Peach Blossom Spring has actually been told as a ghost story.”
Hu Rong pursed her lips and smiled.
" But it's really interesting. Judging from the professor's voice, he doesn't sound very old. I really don't know what he's thinking. He actually said that the fisherman walked into a tomb and saw a village of ghosts. It's really..."
The moment she said that, she was stunned.
Wait a minute!
That's not right. That person said that the magical passage that the fisherman walked into was a tomb passage?
Narrow at the front, wide at the back, and after walking ten steps, it suddenly became wide…Wasn't this exactly the same as the tomb path he had just walked through!
Thinking of this, Hu Rong suddenly raised her head and looked at the mural not far away.
Looking at the lifelike village paintings on the murals, Hu Rong was even more shocked.
Just now, Professor Murong had already deciphered the contents of the stone tablet.
It was clearly written on the wall. Whether it was the story of the Peach Blossom Spring or the murals on the wall, they were all made by Tao Yuanming after he saw a magical paradise.
Could it be…?
The Wuling Fisherman in the text referred to Tao Yuanming himself!
He had also seen the real scenery in the painting before!
At the thought of this, Hu Rong's heart was suddenly filled with earth-shattering and terrifying guesses.
But on second thought, she suddenly felt that something was wrong.
She muttered to herself," That's not right. Even if Tao Yuanming did come to this tomb for some reason and Peach Blossom Land really exists, how did this Peking University professor know?"”
As she spoke, she quickly opened her phone's browser and began to search for Wang Xu's name on Peking University's official website.
After entering Wang Xu's name into the professor's name list, the search results immediately appeared.
Wang Xu, twenty-four years old, professor of history at Peking University.
At the age of 14, he went abroad to study. At the age of 18, he completed all his credits. After graduating from Harvard, he was personally invited by Dean Huntingdon Lambert to be a professor in the Department of World Development. Later, he traveled around the world and taught at the National University of Singapore, the University of Ying, the University of New South Wales, and other universities.
He returned to China in March 2018 and joined Peking University the next month…
After reading the introduction of Wang Xu on Peking University's official website, Hu Rong frowned slightly. She looked at Wang Xu's employment photo and was surprised.
"He's only 24 years old? He could clearly rely on his face to make a living, but he was actually so talented. He should be the youngest and most promising professor in Peking University.”
"Whether it's Harvard or Cambridge, they're both world-class educational institutions. The treatment they receive is definitely much better than in China. This Wang Xu actually gave up such a good opportunity and resolutely returned to China. The thoughts of a genius are indeed not something that an ordinary person like me can fathom.”
At this time, Professor Murong had already finished reading the bamboo slips in his hand.
The bamboo slips didn't only record Guan Zhong's life story. They even briefly mentioned how he helped Duke Huan of Qi rule the world.
On the record, there was another name that was left behind in thick ink. It was his teacher, Guigu 'zi Wang Xu!
Professor Murong suddenly raised his head and asked curiously when he heard Hu Rong mention Wang Xu's name.
"Hmm? Rongrong, what have you been talking to yourself about?”
"Why did you suddenly mention the name Guigu 'zi Wang Xu?”
——————
Well, going through the information was actually quite tiring.
Usually, he could only write one chapter out of three chapters. However, he would still try his best to write four to five chapters every day. He didn't dare to ask for gifts, but he could still throw flowers and tickets at the author. After all, Teacher Wang Wangxu wasn't a person who coveted money…
