During the Jin-Tai-Yuan period, Wu Lingren took fishing as his occupation. Walk along the stream and forget the distance. Suddenly meet the peach blossom forest,
the Peach Garden
There are hundreds of steps to the shore of Jia, and there are no miscellaneous trees in it. Grass is delicious and English is rich and colorful. Fishermen are very different, so they move on and want to become poor.
If there is no water in the forest, make a mountain. The mountain has a small mouth and seems to have light. By boat, by mouth. Only by being narrow at first can we understand people. Take a few steps and you will be cheerful. The land is flat and spacious, the houses (shè) and (yǐ n) are natural, and there are fertile fields and beautiful mulberry ponds. Money (qiān) blames (mi) traffic, and chickens and dogs hear each other. Men and women are familiar with each other's clothes (zhuó). Yellow hair, happy.
Seeing the fisherman, he was shocked and asked him what he had not done. Answer it. You still have to (yāo) go home and set out wine to kill chickens for dinner. When the village heard about this man, Xian came to inquire. Because Yunzu avoided the chaos of the Qin Dynasty, he led his wife Yi to this desperate situation and did not return, so he was isolated from outsiders. You ask what this world is, and I don't know if there are any Han Chinese, regardless of Wei and Jin Dynasties. The man said (wèi) and listened to it again, but he was sighing (wǐ n). The others went home, eating and drinking. Stop for a few days and resign. In this Chinese (yù) cloud: "It is not enough for (wèi) to be humanitarian."
Help the road when you get off the boat, and you are determined everywhere. And under the county (j and n), yi (y) can be said to be the satrap. The satrap (Qi m￠n) followed him, found what he wanted, got lost and lost his way.
Nanyang people (Ji), when noble, heard about it and gladly planned to go. If you fail, you will find the disease. Nobody took care of it after that.

In the first year of the Eastern Jin Dynasty, there was a man in Wuling County who made a living by fishing. One day, he rowed along the stream and forgot the distance of the road. Suddenly, I found a peach blossom forest, which grows hundreds of steps on both sides of the strait. There are no other trees, flowers and plants are fresh and beautiful, and flowers are falling. The fisherman was surprised. Keep walking, want to go to the end of the forest.
At the end of the forest is the source of the stream, so there is a hill with a small hole, which seems to be faintly lit. So the fisherman left the boat and got in through the hole. At first, it was very narrow and only one person was allowed to pass. After dozens of steps, it suddenly became open and bright. The land here is flat and wide, the houses are neat, and there are fertile fields, beautiful ponds, mulberry trees and bamboo. The paths in the field are intertwined, and chickens crow and dogs bark. There people come and go to farm and work, and men and women dress like the world outside the Peach Blossom Garden. Old people and children are very at ease and happy.
People in the Peach Blossom Garden were surprised to see the fisherman and asked him where he came from. The fisherman answered his questions in detail, and he was invited to his house to entertain him with wine and chicken. When people in the village heard that there was such a person, they all came to inquire about the news. They themselves said that their ancestors led their wives, children and neighbors to this isolated place in order to avoid the war in the Qin Dynasty, so they stopped going out, so they cut off contact with outsiders.
People in Taohuayuan asked what dynasty it was, but they didn't know there was a Han dynasty, let alone a Wei and Jin dynasty. The fisherman told them what he had heard in detail, and everyone in the village sighed. The rest invited the fisherman to their home, and they all served him wine and food. After a few days, the fisherman took leave and left. The people here said to the fisherman, "The situation here is not worth telling people outside!" " "
After the fisherman left the Peach Blossom Garden, he found his boat and went back along the old road, marking everywhere. When I arrived in the county, I met the magistrate and told my own experience. The satrap immediately sent someone to follow him, looking for the mark he had made before, but he got lost and couldn't find the way to the Peach Blossom Garden.
Liu Ziji, a noble hermit from Nanyang, heard about it and happily planned to go. Didn't come true, and soon died of illness. Since then, no one has been to the Peach Blossom Garden.
