What was that?
Shangri-La wasn't made up but actually existed?
And…the story of the Peach Blossom Spring was a ghost story!
Although they knew that Teacher Wang Xu often said shocking things, when they heard such a conclusion, all kinds of thoughts of disbelief rippled in the hearts of everyone present.
One had to know that the Peach Blossom Spring was Tao Yuanming's representative work. The term Shangri-La came from this ancient text.
The article used the past to satirize the present, expressing Tao Yuanming's desire to oppose exploitation, oppression, and war, as well as his thoughts and feelings of yearning to live in this paradise.
This was something that had been recognized by many scholars since ancient times. Otherwise, it would not have been written into the teaching materials.
However, Teacher Wang Xu actually said that this was a ghost story?
"Teacher, are you kidding us? How could the Peach Blossom Spring be a ghost story?”
"That's right, I don't believe it either. Teacher, you made this story up, right?”
"The Peach Blossom Land doesn't exist!”
Faced with the doubts of the students, Wang Xu could not help but laugh and shook his head slightly.
Peach Blossom Land doesn't exist?
The previous owner is standing right in front of you, and you dare to swear that it doesn't exist?
After Wang Xu's words, not only did it cause a heated discussion among the students, but even the school leaders who were listening in exchanged glances and saw a complicated expression in each other's eyes.
Xu Kun, the grade director who usually disliked Wang Xu, sneered in disdain after hearing his words."This Wang Xu is really doing everything he can to attract students to attend the lecture!”
" He can even say such distorted facts and insulting words about the thoughts of our predecessors. It's an insult to our culture. He's simply a scum among us teachers!”After he finished speaking in a strange tone, he glared fiercely at Wang Xu, who was standing on the podium.
Wang Xu naturally noticed it, but how could the Old Dragon above the nine heavens care about the provocation of an ant on the ground?
He smiled lightly and did not take it to heart.
After hearing Xu Kun's words, the dean coughed lightly. He did not agree with his opinion. Instead, he smiled and said,"During the Spring and Autumn Period, there were hundreds of schools of thought. Each school had their own theories and thoughts. You only know how to read books, but you can't have your own opinions and ideas? I am very interested in Teacher Wang Xu's explanation. I really want to hear what he has to say.”
After saying that, the dean glanced at Xu Kun speechlessly.
You want to teach Wang Xu a lesson? If they were unhappy, who would invest in the school's new research lab next year?
Since the dean had spoken, Xu Kun naturally did not dare to say anything more. He could only smile awkwardly and quieten down.
At this moment, Wang Xu, who was standing on the podium, continued his lecture.
Wang Xu's voice was low and magnetic, with a hint of laziness.
"I believe that everyone must have learned the story of the Peach Blossom Spring before. Some students have seen it in high school, some have come into contact with it in junior high school, and many have heard this story when they were young, right?”
As soon as Wang Xu's voice fell, the classroom was immediately filled with responses.
"Yes, Teacher. When I was in kindergarten, my grandmother told me this story. At that time, I was especially envious of that fisherman. I also wanted to sail to Shangri-La one day!”
"I remember that in a TV series, this paradise appeared. It was filled with rare treasures, such as the thousand-year-old Chinese Knotweed that rejuvenates people. It was like cabbage. I was so envious at that time! I really want to go!"
Listening to the students 'discussion, Wang Xu smiled slightly." Hehe, I hope that after you hear my story, you will still want to go to Shangri-La to play.”
"In the past, your grandparents, or even school teachers, would definitely tell you that the world in Peach Blossom Land is a utopia full of beauty and no war, right?”
The students in the nearest rows nodded in unison when they saw Wang Xu's gaze.
Wang Xu smiled in satisfaction and continued,"But I don't think so at all. The reason why everyone thinks that the Peach Blossom Land is Tao Qian's utopia is because they have never really read the story of the Peach Blossom Land. Today, I will bring you to experience what the real Peach Blossom Land is.”
As he spoke, he raised his arm, revealing the black wristwatch." Today's class, we'll still use live VR to demonstrate.”
After saying that, a bright light instantly shot out from his watch. One born two, two born three, three born all things!
In an instant, the stars moved, and colorful lights immediately enveloped the entire classroom in a huge light screen.
In the changing light and shadow, countless handsome mountains rose from the ground, and the river flowed endlessly. One could even hear the cries of apes and birds in the mountains and the sound of the river flowing eastward.
In an instant, it made people feel as if they were in the real world!
Even though they had seen it many times, everyone present could not help but reveal a dazed look in their eyes.
"Heavens! No matter how many times he watched this live VR technology, it was still very shocking!”
"It's good to be rich. You can even get your hands on this kind of black technology that hasn't been made public. I'm going to pinch a lemon!”
"Wow, this is even better than watching a movie! Beat up those so-called Hollywood blockbusters!”
Looking at the exclamations below as usual, Wang Xu smiled slightly and said loudly,"Alright, I wonder if any of you would like to read this article to everyone first?”
"Me, me, me! Choose me! Teacher!"
The one who volunteered was the girl who had asked the first question. Wang Xu had some impression of her. For more than a year, this girl called Lin Zhiyin had never missed a class. She could be considered his hardcore fan.
Wang Xu smiled and nodded." Alright, Lin Zhiyin, you can read it then."”
"Wow, Teacher Wang actually knows my name!”
Lin Zhiyin was overwhelmed by Wang Xu's call to read aloud. She looked at Wang Xu with excitement.
"Alright, don't be in a daze. Hurry up and start.”
Wang Xu's words woke her up from her unrealistic fantasies.
"Okay, okay!"
The blushing Lin Zhiyin was stunned for a moment. She quickly cleared her throat and began to recite.
"During the Taiyuan period of the Jin Dynasty, the people of Wuling made a living by fishing. Walking along the stream, forget the distance of the road. Suddenly came to a peach blossom forest, hundreds of paces on both sides of the river, there are no other trees in the forest, fragrant grass delicious, fallen flowers colorful, the fisherman is very surprised, and then forward, want to explore the forest.”
As Lin Zhiyin's melodious voice rang out from her mouth, the VR scene in front of everyone slowly changed. It was as if everyone had become the fisherman of Wuling, driving a small boat through the dense peach blossom forest on both sides. There was even a faint peach blossom fragrance on the tip of their noses.
"When the forest is drained of water, there is a mountain. The mountain has a small mouth, as if there is light. So he left the boat and entered through the mouth. At first, he was very narrow, but he was very talented. After walking another ten steps, I suddenly see the light…"
Everyone followed the recitation and felt fascinated. It was as if they had stepped into the mysterious passage leading to the Peach Blossom Land.
