Longshan Village, located in H City, Guojiaozhou, China, is a small mountain village that is almost isolated from the world, where the mountains and rivers are beautiful, the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant, the population of the village is more than 1,400 people, the people in the village are surnamed Dragon, the people here do it at sunrise and rest at sunset......

That's right, it's true that the sun rises and the sun sets.

It is hard to imagine that today in 2015, there is still such an isolated mountain village in the border of Jiaozhou, China, and the road leading to the outside of the mountain in Longshan Village is still a sheep intestine trail that has been stepped on by ancestors for hundreds of years.

There are no electric lights and telephones here, and it is difficult to find even a mobile phone signal, and the nearest market to Longshan Village has to be walked more than 20 miles to the mountain road.

The materials in the mountains can't go out, and the materials from the outside can't come in, so the people of Longshan Village except for occasionally taking some leather goods to the mountains to change shoe oil and salt, and the rest of the material life depends on self-sufficiency.

Or money has little effect on the people of Longshan Village, almost no one in the village goes out to work, it is like a paradise, beautiful, quiet, peaceful, and simple.

One evening at the end of August 2015, a young 'traveler' who was nearly 1.8 meters tall and about 267 years old came here unexpectedly, and this is our protagonist, Zhou Ding.

In today's society, there are more and more travelers, in recent years, there are often travelers who have strayed into Longshan Village, and the hospitable Longshan Village Mayor Long Dafu warmly received him, and slaughtered a big rooster and invited Zhou Ding to drink.

When the two were chatting about changing cups, Long Dafu mentioned the plight of children in the mountains who could not go to school and study.

There is no school in Longshan Village, let alone teachers, and if the children here want to go to school, they can only walk to the Guduo Township Primary School more than 20 miles away, and these 20 miles of mountain roads, even if they are adults and young people, have to walk for at least two hours, let alone a group of children.

There are more wild beasts and poisonous insects on this road, even adults and young people do not dare to walk at night, in the early years, Long Dafu also organized people to escort children to Guduo Township to go to school, in fact, this method does not work.

Even when the children arrived at school immediately after dawn, the school had already finished its first lesson, and if it was time for the school to finish and then rush back, it would be dark halfway through, and one of the children broke his leg because he couldn't see the road clearly, and no one has talked about going to school since.

The inability of children to go to school and study normally has become a problem for Long Dafu. Zhou Ding didn't say anything at the time, and the next morning, he bid farewell to Long Dafu.

Long Dafu just complained, and didn't expect Zhou Ding to solve this problem,

However, he didn't expect that half a month later, Zhou Ding came to his home again and told Long Dafu; He wants to build a school here and become a volunteer teacher in Longshan Village.

It's not that Zhou Ding's personality is noble, but that he is really fed up with the hurried rhythm of the city, and people get along with each other, almost wearing a mask, hiding his true temperament deeply. The last time I came here, I was attracted by the scenery of Yongsan and had the idea of settling here.

However, it is not easy for outsiders to integrate into an isolated mountain village, and the need for teachers in Longshan Village is an opportunity.

Zhou Ding used to be an orphan, when he was a few months old, he was abandoned at the door of the orphanage in H City, and the reason why the director of the orphanage gave him the name "Zhou Ding" was because when he picked him up, he wore a three-legged tripod-shaped bronze pendant around his neck, and the pendant was engraved with a raised "Zhou" character.

When Zhou Ding was six years old, his adoptive father, Zhou Huaiwen, and his wife came to the orphanage to comfort the children and found Zhou Ding, who was out of step with his surroundings. The child's eyes were clear and distant, with an indescribable spirituality, the old couple looked at each other, nodded to each other, and went through the procedures for adopting Zhou Ding on the same day, bringing him home, and raising and teaching him like a parent.

Zhou's father is a professor of ancient literature at H City Normal University, and many of today's 'bricks, called beasts', Zhou's father is a professor with both ability and political integrity, is a literati with Wei and Jin style, he has cultivated a lot of disciples with both ability and political integrity in his life, the only regret is that there is no son, after retirement, he often feels that life is not perfect enough, adopted Zhou Ding, and the old couple can be regarded as making up for this shortcoming.

The family affection that he never had, quickly melted the withdrawn Zhou Ding, and the happiness of life made Zhou Ding slowly cheerful, like a normal child, going to elementary school, junior high school, and high school......

However, good flowers do not bloom often, good times do not always exist, when the adoptive parents adopted Zhou Ding, he was over sixty years old, and when Zhou Ding was in his third year of high school, Zhou's father's life came to an end, leaving a sentence; 'Straighten your spine and be a man', and let go.

On the same day, the adoptive mother died because of excessive grief and followed Zhou's father.

At that time, Zhou Ding felt that the sky was about to fall, fortunately, several disciples of Zhou's father came to handle the funeral, afterwards, Zhou Ding refused the help of the senior brothers, and it took a whole month to come out of the grief of losing his parents, with the savings left by his parents, he stumbled through high school, finished college, and after graduation, he joined the rolling torrent of employment with great ambition.

Zhou Ding always remembered that when Zhou's father was dying, he said, 'Straighten your spine and be a man', however, Zhou Ding, who had just graduated and had no connections, how difficult it was to do this.

In the past few years, Zhou Ding has changed more than a dozen jobs before and after, whether it is a large company or a small unit, there are unspoken rules almost everywhere, so that Zhou Ding is becoming more and more bored with the current environment.

After Zhou Ding lost his last job, he entered Longshan with the idea of distraction, and was immediately attracted by this place.

When he heard that the children here could not study normally like the children outside, Zhou Dingfu gave birth to the idea of 'staying here and being a volunteer teacher'.

After going back, Zhou Ding cleaned all the bank cards, scraped together 100,000 yuan, and returned to Longshan Village again, planning to build a few tiled houses here as classrooms for children.

Knowing Zhou Ding's intention, Long Dafu held Zhou Ding's hands tightly and said excitedly: "Thank you, thank you, Brother Zhou, no, Mr. Zhou, I thank you for the nearly 100 children in the village who need to go to school......"

Zhou Ding smiled bitterly, and after Long Dafu's feelings calmed down a little, he took out his hands, patted the village chief's shoulder, and said: "Village Chief Long, don't say much about the polite words, I don't know anything about building a house, and I have to trouble ......you in this regard."

"What is this, it's already embarrassing to let Mr. Zhou pay for it, the old and young masters of Longshan Village have ......covered the manpower problem," Long Dafu waved his hand and said proudly.

Subsequently, Long Dafu sent his son Long Zhuang to invite several clan elders from Longshan Village to introduce Zhou Ding to everyone.
