There is a village? Lin Tongxi was also curious after hearing this news.
It seemed that he had learned a similar article in his textbook, which also told the story of a village living behind a cave.
"Could it be a paradise on earth?" Lin Tongxi asked doubtfully.
Hearing the unfamiliar term, Xiaojiu subconsciously asked, "What is a paradise?"
Xiaojiu's question was also everyone's question. Seeing that everyone was puzzled, Lin Tongxi explained the term.
In short, a paradise is a place isolated from the world, where there is no war, no chaos, and no intrigue.
There people live in harmony and respect each other.
But what makes Lin Tongxi curious is, does such a place really exist?
Lin Tongxi's statement also aroused the curiosity of several people. After all, such a place is too precious to Xiangzhou, which is now ravaged by war. It can even be said to be a myth.
If there really is such a place, then perhaps we can learn some experience from it and use it to govern Wangchen County in the future.
"What do you say? Do you want to go?" Lin Tongxi took the initiative to suggest.
"The place Brother Tongxi mentioned is very tempting. I also agree to go and explore it." Chen Yunxuan expressed his agreement.
"It's rare to find this place, so let's go and take a look." Yue Lingyun also nodded.
After reaching an agreement, they set out to march towards the cave.
The cave is quite narrow, only allowing two people to pass through, and they cannot be too bulky.
From this point of view, it will obviously take a lot of time to get the army in.
In addition, bringing too many people into the village might cause hostility from the villagers.
Maybe it is enough to bring a few people in, and then call more people in or escape if something happens.
They did not intend to resort to violence; their intention was simply to visit the locals, not to cause them any trouble.
If they bring trouble to this paradise, they will feel very guilty.
For this reason, they decided that Lin Tongxi, Chen Yunxuan and Xiaojiu would take their entourage in to check the situation, while Yue Lingyun would stay outside to provide support.
The cave was indeed narrow, Lin Tongxi felt so as he passed through it.
Ordinary people might not notice such a small hole.
Lin Tongxi and others followed Xiaojiu through the cave entrance and walked out of the cave after a while.
What appears before our eyes are neatly arranged houses and many fields cultivated by villagers.
It is the flower season now, and countless flowers are blooming, forming a sea of pink and white flowers.
The stream flows gently, and green grass grows by the river.
The scenery is beautiful, with birds singing, flowers blooming, and leaves rustling.
The adults were busy with farm work, while the children were happy to play and have fun.
This scene is like the utopia described in the book.
Lin Tongxi suddenly had the idea of retiring to the mountains. It would be a good idea to live in seclusion here.
Chen Yunxuan had the same idea as Lin Tongxi. Since being expelled from Chengtian Academy, he had been thinking about living in seclusion.
If Lin Tongxi had not said that he would help him to rectify the troubled times, Chen Yunxuan might have really gone into seclusion.
Several hunters noticed this group of strangers and came forward to inquire about the situation.
"Are you guys from outside?" Tao Yong, a middle-aged hunter, spoke first.
"Hello brothers, we came from Wangchen County outside. We accidentally found this place and came in out of curiosity." Lin Tongxi responded.
"Oh... Wangchen County. I heard from the old people in the village that our ancestors seemed to have come from Wangchen County." Tao Yong said, and then asked about the situation in Wangchen County.
Lin, Chen and Bai gave detailed answers to this question, but did not take the initiative to reveal their true identities.
"Oh, it looks like things are going pretty well." Tao Yong nodded. Seeing that they were so friendly, he invited them into the village. "You're welcome. Why don't you come into my house for some tea? My name is Tao Yong, and like these brothers, I'm a hunter in the village."
"In that case, I'll trouble you, Brother Tao Yong." Chen Yunxuan clasped his hands and took his luggage.
Tao Yong patted Chen Yunxuan on the shoulder and said with a generous smile, "You're too polite, brother. You look like a scholar. You might get along well with our village chief."
"Oh... there's another person, quite educated too, maybe we can chat." Tao Yong was talking, and then he remembered the outsider who came to the village a few years ago: "That person was from another place just like you guys, what was his name... Forget it, I'll take you there first."
Tao Yong brought Chen Yunxuan and the others home. Along the way, the villagers looked at Chen Yunxuan and the group of strangers curiously.
Although they had changed into casual clothes, their attire was still considered luxurious, forming a sharp contrast with the villagers' plain clothing.
After arriving at Tao Yong's house, Tao Yong invited them to sit down and poured them tea, while the Qi family started to kill chickens and prepare wine to entertain them.
"Oh, I almost forgot to call the village chief over!" Tao Yong slapped his thigh and asked his youngest son to find the village chief.
After a while, an energetic old man came over with several villagers.
"Everyone, this is the village chief of our village." Tao Yong introduced the person who came in.
After meeting the village chief, Tao Yong stood up, moved the chair near the village chief and invited him to sit down.
Chen Yunxuan and others also stood up and introduced themselves.
The village chief sat down and responded to the others, "I've heard about your story. My name is Tao Mingyuan, and I'm the village chief of Sangyu Village."
"Since you have come to Sangyu Village, you are our guests."
"I've already arranged a banquet to entertain you. Please be kind enough to do me the honor."
