"Since Mr. Xie printed the background image of "The Peach Blossom Spring" on his business card, he obviously loves Tao Yuanming's "The Peach Blossom Spring"?"

Su Bai wanted to pour a cup of tea, but found that he had planned and prepared the rest of the room, but he missed the tea leaves for the guests because Su Bai himself had no habit of drinking tea.

Very simply, Su Bai took out two bottles of orange juice and handed one of them to Xie Zhen.

"Don't mind. On the first day you move here, you won't be ready for many things."

"It's okay. I'll ask the secretary to come down and deliver a can of good tea to Mr. Su later."

Su Bai smiled and ignored the problem. It was definitely not for his own business to come to him. Otherwise, there would be no need to go directly to the detective office downstairs of his company with such a big fanfare. He should be entrusted by others or want to To check some things that are not closely related to you, it is just a social habit of businessmen to get close to you.

Jie Zhen took the orange juice in his hand and continued: "Of course I know "The Story of Peach Blossom Spring" very well, and I have the full text in my mind. After all, I am a person in the business world, so it is natural that intrigues and intrigues are inevitable in my daily life. , so after living like this for a long time, I yearn for the beautiful world in "Peach Blossom Spring" more and more. It can be regarded as a kind of spiritual sustenance. Of course, I am being pretentious.

Mr. Su said that it is unlucky to print the background of "Peach Blossom Spring" on a business card. I would like to hear the details. "

Su Bai took a sip of orange juice and said, "It's actually very simple. Just interpret it from a different perspective. "Peach Blossom Spring" seems to describe a very beautiful fictional world, but in some details, it adds a little bit of personal evil. If you speculate subjectively in a fun way, it can completely change its meaning."

"Well, I'm very interested in Mr. Su's bad taste."

"First of all, a fisherman makes a living by fishing. He is a fisherman. In ancient times, an industry was often passed down from generation to generation. It is very likely that the fisherman's father was also a fisherman. Therefore, the fisherman should pay close attention to the area around him. The water area is very familiar. After all, he is fishing in the river, not the sea. If he is fishing in the sea, there will naturally be many unknowns, but in the river, the possibility of a local fisherman getting lost should be minimal. Bar."

"continue."

"After the fisherman arrived at the source, he saw the entrance of the cave. 'It was extremely narrow at first, and then it was accessible to people. After walking for dozens of steps, it suddenly became clear. The land was flat and the houses looked like it'. If you think about this scene from another angle, you can Changing the scene, is the fisherman entering a cave or a tomb passage? It is extremely narrow at first, and only then can it pass people. After walking dozens of steps, it suddenly becomes clear. Isn’t what is described here the conventional construction idea of ​​​​ancient tomb passage design?

The land is flat and the houses are so neat and orderly. We know that ancient cities were indeed planned very carefully, and every place and every line was meticulous, but these are all big cities.

For example, on the maps of old Beijing and old Xi'an, there are lines and rules everywhere. They are very strict and cannot go beyond the rules.

However, the fisherman did not go to a big city at that time, nor was it a major military town. He went to a peach blossom garden, and peach blossom garden was actually a small village. As far as I know, the villages of the ancients did not seem to be so particular. , the houses in the village are basically built in an intricate style around the ancestral hall. "

"So, what do you mean, what do these 'the land is flat and the houses are like' recorded by Tao Yuanming refer to?"

Su Bai smiled and took another sip of orange juice, "In ancient China, there was one thing that was bigger than anything else, and that was tombs. There were many rules for tombs, and the ancients also attached great importance to them. The construction of tombs often had Rules that are stricter than living inhabited by living people.

If it is too unrealistic to describe a small mountain village with flat land and scattered houses, then if it is used to describe neatly repaired tombs, wouldn't it fit perfectly? What's up? No matter how bad the conditions are, people would not dare to be vague about repairing graves. "

Xie Zhen nodded, "Mr. Su, I am becoming more and more interested in your ideas. Please continue. Is there anything else?"

"The word "Qian" was sometimes used to describe tomb passages in ancient times. This is more proof of my previous speculation. At the same time, the period when bamboos and mulberries are most luxuriant is May and July. , and Peach Blossom is March. There is a huge time fallacy here.

There are fertile fields, beautiful ponds, mulberry and bamboo species. This sentence has great ambiguity and contradiction with "The Peach Blossom Spring". Of course, there is also a poem about the peach blossoms beginning to bloom in Jinshan Temple in April, but this is related to the altitude and climate, and fishermen cannot climb mountains with fishing boats. Not realistic.

Therefore, I think the real way for the fisherman to enter the Peach Blossom Land is this: he saw a place full of peach blossoms in full bloom, and then saw a tomb passage. He bent down and walked in. The tomb passage was narrow at first and then widened, and then suddenly opened up and saw The tombs deep in the tomb passage have been neatly repaired. "

"Then if we follow Mr. Su's explanation, how can we explain that the yellow hair is so content and the men and women are dressed like outsiders?" Xie Zhen asked, "There are people here."

Su Bai lowered his head, brought his face very close, and then deliberately lowered his voice and asked:

"So, what looks exactly like a person but isn't a person?"

Jie Zhen's face suddenly darkened, he took a deep breath and spit out one word: "Ghost."

"Yes, ghosts. When the fisherman entered the tomb passage and saw the neat tombs, he also saw a group of... ghosts!" Su Bai took out two cigarettes and handed one to Xie Zhen. Xie Zhen shook his head to indicate that he didn't want to. While smoking, Su Bai lit it himself: "Men and women are dressed like outsiders. Since Yun's ancestors escaped from the chaos of the Qin Dynasty, he led his wife's people to come to this desperate situation. He never came back, so he was separated from outsiders. Asked what time it is now, But I don’t know that there was a Han Dynasty, regardless of the Wei and Jin Dynasties.

First of all, I don’t know very well what people’s clothes were like during the Qin Dynasty, but the Qin Dynasty fell in 206 BC. Although I don’t remember the general existence time of the Eastern Jin Dynasty very clearly, it was probably between 300 and 300 AD. Between four hundred years, it means that there is a difference of five to six hundred years. The styles of clothing in ancient times cannot change from time to time like they do now, but five to six hundred years is enough time for several earth-shaking changes in clothing to occur. But isn't it strange that the people in the Peach Blossom Spring dress like outsiders, both men and women? "

"Why is this happening?"

"First, it's a sacrifice. Someone outside has been burning paper money or clothes made of paper for them. Second, it may be a ghost's ability to make you see what you think you should see.

Moreover, for five or six hundred years, the people in Peach Blossom Spring did not communicate with the outside world, and they have been marrying close relatives there. I think Mr. Xie, you should be very clear about the consequences of incestuous marriage for five to six hundred years, so, this Logically speaking, this description is actually Tao Yuanming telling people who read this article that the people in Peach Blossom Spring are not people at all. Of course, the difference in accent is also a big doubt. There was no Mandarin in ancient times. "

"The fisherman may have been confused, or he may have been coerced. It was written in the article that the people in the Peach Blossom Spring entertained the fishermen by wine and wine, killing chickens and cooking food. This description is very interesting and very interesting. It is easy to think of another picture, which is a custom that is still retained in many rural areas in China, that is, doing white things and placing sacrifices.

Maybe, the fisherman kept eating sacrifices during those days, maybe even eating meat maggots and insects.

This can explain that after the people in the Peach Blossom Spring told the fishermen that it was not enough for outsiders, the fishermen went to report to the prefect as soon as they left. Many Chinese teachers said that the fishermen were greedy for rewards, but they found that a small village levied more taxes and rewards. A lot? Is the benefit huge?

So, what is the reason that makes the fisherman start to mark everything as soon as he leaves the Peach Blossom Spring, and then goes straight to the prefect's mansion? "

Xie Zhen continued Su Bai's words: "Because the fisherman may have realized that he encountered a ghost village. He may have realized it after leaving, or he may have discovered it while he was inside, so he hurriedly reported it to the prefect. went."

"Also, peach trees have the function of warding off evil spirits and suppressing evil spirits. The magic weapon used by many Taoist priests to exorcise evil spirits and protect the Tao is the peach wood sword. The purpose of the village surrounded by peach trees is also obvious. Furthermore, Tao Yuanming only loved chrysanthemums. , if he really wanted to write about a purely imaginary beautiful world, why not write it as a chrysanthemum village? In ancient times, there was no habit of comparing chrysanthemums to certain organs of the human body, so there is nothing to avoid."

"In that case, according to your thinking, there is a paragraph at the end of the article: Liu Ziji of Nanyang, a noble scholar, heard about it and went there happily. However, he failed to find the disease and ended up with no one interested in him.

Could it be explained that because it is a ghost village, no one can find it? "

Su Bai shook his head. Actually, if I think about it on a deeper level, I think Liu Ziji really found the Peach Blossom Spring, but the prefect did not find it. "

"Why?" Xie Zhen asked.

"If Peach Blossom Spring is really a ghost village, and the fisherman's entry is actually an irreversible chance coincidence, then, normally, what kind of person can go to that ghost village full of ghosts?"

Jie Zhen took out a tissue and wiped his hands. He wanted to wipe his sweat, but he still controlled it. "Liu Ziji died and became a ghost, so he successfully entered the Peach Blossom Spring."

"That's it."

"Actually, your explanation is far-fetched." Xie Zhen said, "But I still decided to change my business card to a different style."

Su Bai shrugged, "I think so too, I just think it's fun. You know, if you open a detective agency, if you don't know how to be mysterious, you won't be able to scare customers into paying for orders."

Xie Zhen put down a USB flash drive on the table, "This is something I want to ask Mr. Su to help me investigate. There is information in it. If Mr. Su is willing to take it after reading it, I can pay a 30% deposit in advance." ,contacting via phone."

After saying that, Xie Zhen left.

Su Bai held the USB flash drive with a smile on his lips.

On the first day when he changed from a wealthy young man to a wage earner, business came to his door.

"I really have to thank Tao Yuanming for writing that ghost story..."
