Not only Teacher Zhang, but also other children around him also cast curious glances at this newly turned classmate.

Although Hu Xiaocao doesn't talk much, he looks cute, but it is very impressive, sometimes not only adults look at their faces, but also children.

Being watched by so many people, Hu Xiaocao didn't have any nervousness, she had a mind that she shouldn't have at this age.

It's just that he didn't open his mouth after half a sound, probably organizing the language in his heart.

Teacher Zhang's smile became more gentle, "It's okay Xiaocao, if you have any different ideas and opinions, you can say them and share them with everyone." ”

For a moment, Xiaocao seemed to have summed up her thoughts, she slowly raised her head, obviously a child, but at this moment she had a trace of adult temperament, and said seriously:

"Teacher, I think the meaning of the story of carving a boat and seeking a sword is not rigid, nor stubborn, but reminiscing and revisiting the old place."

Teacher Zhang was surprised, "Oh? How so? ”

Hu Xiaocao: "Because, what this story teaches is not a warning, but the artistic conception of 'the past carved a boat to fall from the sword, and the people wept with the dead hairpin'!" ”

Teacher Zhang suddenly opened his mouth in surprise, looked at Hu Xiaocao in amazement, and thought that he had heard it wrong, and his eyes crossed with a touch of incredulity.

Looking at the little girl in front of him, he didn't expect such profound words and unpopular poems to come from a child's mouth.

What kind of books does she read on weekdays!

What are you wondering?

Hu Xiaocao didn't notice the teacher's exclamation, and still said to himself: "The moral of this story can also be: what you are looking for in a boat is not necessarily a sword, but your former self. ”

Hu Xiaocao tilted his head and thought for a while, "Hmm...... And nostalgia for the past is actually carving a boat in time to ask for a sword! ”

"So, how can this be stubborn and rigid?"

Hu Xiaocao looked at Chicheng, and his words were like a clear stream, flowing into Mr. Zhang's heart, and there were countless ripples, but the innocent and immature words said things that adults couldn't imagine.

In contrast, the other children were ignorant, and they didn't fully understand the meaning of Hu Xiaocao's words, but they just felt that what she said was very profound.

There is an inexplicable truth, but they can't figure out the specific truth, if they remember this memory, they may have to be able to realize it later.

Because for them, when they grow up, education can complete its closed loop.

Teacher Zhang was caught in thought.

She suddenly remembered the lyrics of a song: 'I have blown the wind you have blown, I have walked the road you have walked'.

Isn't that exactly what it is happening now?

As Hu Xiaocao said, carving a boat to seek a sword is just a revisit to the old place, and everyone tries to salvage the past in the long river of time, but in the end it is in vain.

This story has been passed down by word of mouth to this day, but what it leaves behind is a cautionary tale, with a hint of irony in its humor.

Many idioms and stories are like this, intended to warn the world, but who can know what their original intention was?

Everyone is a spectator, not a participant, and their ideas are also very individualistic.

And as the parties in the story, what kind of state of mind were they at that time?

Hu Xiaocao's views have also sparked a new round of heated discussions among the children.

"I feel like what Xiaocao said makes sense, she deserves to be the top person in the class, and I thought she was a nerd who only reads."

"Although what Xiaocao said is completely different from what Mr. Zhang said, I don't know why, I think Xiaocao said it better."

Some people agree, and naturally there will be children who oppose it.

"What kind of nonsense is this, I think the person who asked for the sword is very stupid, okay, we can't do things like him."

"What's the use of talking about gods, it's clear that Mr. Zhang's is the correct statement, don't be misled."

"Teacher Zhang didn't say that Xiaocao was wrong, you are a little too much."

The two sides had different opinions, and they were even about to quarrel, and the children's dispute pulled Mr. Zhang's thoughts back to reality.

Teacher Zhang came back to his senses and looked at the noisy crowd, and suddenly couldn't laugh or cry.

"Kids, everybody's opinions and perspectives are different, and it's impossible to say exactly who's right and who's wrong."

A child suddenly asked, "Does Teacher Zhang think what Hu Xiaocao said is right?" ”

Teacher Zhang did not speak casually, or couldn't pull off because of his identity, but after thinking about it seriously, he nodded seriously:

"The teacher thinks what Xiaocao said is very reasonable, and it gives the teacher a lot of inspiration, whether it is carving a boat to ask for a sword, or revisiting the old place, we should respect everyone's ideas."

When I first watched the story of carving a boat to ask for a sword, Mr. Zhang's view was the same as most people.

I didn't expect that today, many years later, she would hear different answers in the mouth of a child, which triggered her deep thought.

Education has a certain long-term and lagging nature, like a closed loop, and after many years, there is a moment when you suddenly realize something, that is, the moment the bullet hits you, and this is the completion of education.

Even though Ms. Zhang has become a teacher who teaches and educates people from the beginning, she is still constantly exploring and learning.

There is a good saying, there is no end to learning.

Teacher Zhang was extremely emotional, looking at Hu Xiaocao's lovely face, he couldn't help but touch her head, "Thank you, Xiaocao." ”

Hu Xiaocao blinked, probably not understanding why Teacher Zhang suddenly said thank you, she couldn't help but ask, "Teacher Zhang, why do you say thank you." ”

"When you grow up, you will understand, and the teacher is very pleased that you have such an opinion at a young age."

"Thank you, teacher, for the compliment."

"Xiaocao, can you tell me where you learned these things?"

"I like to read, I read ancient books, every time I read them, I can get inspiration, and ......" Hu Xiaocao replied, looking up at the river in front of him, looking confused: "Moreover, there seems to be a grandfather I know there who is guiding me......"

……

With the sound of chirping away, the land became silent again, Ye Qin looked at the backs of Teacher Zhang and the others, and his expression was quite emotional.

"I didn't expect to meet here."

He didn't expect that the malnourished little girl at the beginning had now undergone a huge change, not only in appearance, but also in Hu Xiaocao's knowledge.

From what she said just now, you can get a glimpse of one or two, it doesn't seem like she said it at her age at all.

This experience is Hu Xiaocao's personal experience, combined with his own understanding, no one can copy it.

After all, when his peers were still innocent, Hu Xiaocao's thin shoulders had already taken on the heavy responsibility of life, driving the small boat of life to sway in the wind and rain.

What she expects is not to reminisce about the time with her mother?

Why doesn't she want to salvage her once carefree self and healthy mother in the long river of years?

With such an insight, Ye Qin was actually not surprised.

"This kid does have a wise root."

Before you know it, the sun is setting, and the afterglow of the setting sun is precipitating on the water, as if there are countless gems, and as the light dims, the outline of the green hills on both sides of the river also deepens.

The river spans thousands of years and has gone through many springs and autumns.

The story that happened by the river is also constantly being told by future generations, and everyone has their own opinion, and this opinion will change with age.

Ye Qin saw an old man coming in a trance, and his singing voice that had experienced the vicissitudes of life was constantly wandering in the green mountains and green waters, as if he was persuading the world.

The rolling Yangtze River is passing away, and the waves are sweeping away the heroes.

Success or failure turns empty.

The green mountains are still there, and the sunset is red several times.

On the white-haired fisherman river, accustomed to watching the autumn moon and spring breeze.

A pot of turbid wine is happy to meet.

How many things in ancient and modern times are laughing and talking.

"It turned out to be the Warring States Period, the mottled fragments of the years of "Carving a Boat for a Sword".

Ye Qin didn't know if his deeds could be passed down through the ages and remembered by future generations.

I don't know what kind of demeanor future generations will have when they talk about it if they know about his existence.

He only needs to know that even if he carves a boat for a sword and travels again, the Tao will still exist forever and remain unchanged for eternity, and this is enough.

Even if he is the only one on the road.

"By the way, then did I succeed in the visualization just now?"

Ye Qin conceived of the last step, but was pulled back, and this time the visualization object was also relatively special, it was visualized in the mottled fragments of the years, and he was not sure if there was any difference between it and reality.

Ye Qin sensed it slightly, and he didn't seem to have any changes in himself.

When the Origin White Bone manifests, there seems to be no difference.

Ye Qin couldn't help but be a little disappointed, "Could it still be a failure?" ”

Is it because in the mottled fragments of the years, it does not constitute a condition for visualization, or is it because it has already succeeded, but it is suddenly pulled back to reality at the end of the day, so the visualization process is interrupted?

"Forget it, it's the same in reality."

Ye Qin comforted himself, his eyes were suddenly attracted by the Shangqing view in the palm of the white bone, and he vaguely sensed a little weak power of time.

It stands to reason that the fragments of mottled years are fleeting, and it can be said that they are consumables, and once they are activated, they will disappear in this time and space in a short time.

Just like the last time he was in Zuo Ci's tomb, after returning to the real world, Ye Qin could no longer perceive this power.

This time, he actually felt a tiny amount of energy fluctuation in the Shangqing Concept, although it was small, but it was enough to shock him.

"What's going on?"

Ye Qin's spiritual power penetrated into the Shangqing Meditation, trying to figure out where this change came from.

The shrunken Shangqing view on the white bone hand cannot be observed with the naked eye, but it can be perceived with spiritual power.

Everything inside is no different from before, except-

There seemed to be a look of surprise in Ye Qin's eyes, "When did there become an extra canal here!" ”

He remembered that the canal didn't exist before.

Now it is like a silver belt surrounding the inside of the Taoist temple, not abrupt at all, but extremely harmonious, and the meager power that Ye Qin perceives is emanating from the stream.

The look of surprise had been replaced by joy and excitement.

"Could it be that I succeeded?!"

Ye Qin had a faint hunch, the canal in front of him must have a great relationship with the river he had visualized before, otherwise how could he explain that this stream was mixed with the meager power of time.

But he wasn't sure, after all, the gap between the canal and the river in front of him was too obvious.

Ye Qin still closes his eyes, and he can recall the scene of the river tide flooding, storming the waves, and rolling up the waves more than half a person high, which is really shocking.

In contrast, the gurgling water is not worth mentioning

In any case, there must be an inextricable relationship between the canal and the river.

Ye Qin's spiritual power fully penetrated into it, except for vaguely perceiving the power of time, there seemed to be no difference between the water canal and the ordinary one.

In addition, no other changes were found in the White Bone and Taoist Temple.

Ye Qinshu withdrew all his spiritual power, "For the time being, I can't see what the effect of this canal is, but it must not be a visualization that feeds back the physical body, but like the Shangqing Concept, it has some special effects!" ”

"But no matter what, this is all a creation imagined from the mottled fragments of time, and it must be unusual, and it may not even be under the influence of the Shangqing Concept!"

"We can continue to observe later."

The river is surging, under the sunlight, like a silver belt waving, and because the green hills on both sides of the river are reflected in it, adding a bit of verdant color.

When the breeze blows, the shadows of the trees sway, and the shadows in the river also shake, gradually changing into irregular shapes, like the rings of time crushing through them.

Ye Qin looked a little distracted, dream or reality? The two were mixed together to make him unable to distinguish clearly, even if he entered the mottled fragment of time for the second time, Ye Qin still did not understand the principle.

How was it born?

What are the requirements?

What is the pattern?

In addition to enlightenment, what kind of edification can you bring to yourself?

He couldn't figure it out for the time being.

But in any case, this experience is precious to him, or every time the mottled years are opened, it is a wonderful opportunity.

Being able to talk to the ancients and get in touch with different worlds and comprehensions has greatly improved his state of mind or cultivation.

The only pity is that I can't bring things back or stuff, otherwise it will be even more buggy.

"I don't know where the next mottled fragment of the years will appear?"

Ye Qin faintly added a little expectation in his heart.

Discussing with Zuo Ci, he was inspired, followed his own heart, and had an improvement in his state of mind, and finally made himself realize the Qi Dan Dao; The discussion with the old man made him understand that in addition to all things, only the Tao lasts forever, and the eternal truth, strengthened his Taoist heart, and also visualized the creation of rivers.

It can be seen that his previous conjecture was right, there are mottled fragments of time in many parts of the world, and it does not necessarily have to be places such as famous temples and Taoist temples, as long as there are ancient historical relics, it may be possible to preserve fragments of time.

It's just that if you want to excite it, you still need a little chance, not everywhere, and the laws and reasons for it have not been figured out for the time being.

"Let's go."

This vicinity has been explored by Ye Qin, and there is no need to stay any longer, Ye Qin finally glanced back at the river.

The figure also dissipated into the sunset.

……

On the other hand, the outing has ended.

Teacher Zhang was still writing hard at his desk, preparing tomorrow's lesson plan, and unconsciously remembered what Hu Xiaocao said during the day.

Even now, my mind still can't be calm.

"Ding Dong - Ding Dong"

The phone kept coming from the message prompt, and she picked it up to see that the private messages in the background were full.

It turned out that she posted Hu Xiaocao's answer on the Internet today, just to share the students' opinions, but she didn't expect it to become popular.

The number of views and likes has exceeded 100,000, and it is still growing at a terrifying rate, and many people are running to comment below, telling their feelings.

Mr. Zhang clicked on the comment area in surprise.

[Frog in the opposite direction]: "I don't read much, don't lie to me, this is actually what a primary school student can say?" It can't be that the blogger made it up himself. ”

[Crystal Clear City]: "Seeing this answer, I really feel it, it is a pity to carve a boat to ask for a sword, it is indulgent to cover your ears and steal the bell, it is a good thing to cut your feet to fit your shoes, Handan is a toddler, and the person in the original story has always been myself." ”

[early twenties]: "If memory is carving a boat to seek a sword, then moving forward is to quench your thirst?" ”

[Mo Shang Yanliu]: "In fact, our life is just a matter of reviewing Chinese idioms, if it is not for the sake of hurrying, Chinese is really the most meaningful subject." ”

[Evergain]: "I now know that what is engraved there is not a mark but a memory, how many people want to go back to a certain time in their memory, looking for something, but can only stand by the side of the boat and wander, what is lost will never come back, you are not the original self anymore." ”

[Heilonghe's first affectionate]: "People can't teach people, books can't teach people, and things can be taught again." ”

[A villain book]: "So if you want to buy osmanthus and carry wine, it is not like a juvenile tour, it turns out that we can't go back, but unfortunately the truth is very simple, but there are very few people who understand." ”

[Patrick Star]: "When I was a child, I really wanted to buy a game console, but I didn't have any money at that time, and now I have grown up and worked to make money, and I go to buy what I once wanted, but I find that I no longer have the original desire." ”

[Kaiyun Tower]: "I didn't know the meaning of the song at the beginning, and then I heard that it was already a person in the song, how many people had laughed at this person who carved a boat to ask for a sword, but after many years, he did something similar, and kept clinging to the past. ”

Many people have feelings and different life perceptions, so much so that this video has even been on the hot search, and many people question that this is not like what a child said.

Mr. Zhang personally went out to tell the story of Hu Xiaocao, and everyone was even more touched, many people expressed their desire to fund Hu Xiaocao, and even Hu Xiaocao himself became a little popular.

And in these comments, there is a person named Qi Xueqing.

He is a young man who likes to study ancient history very much, and he studied related majors in college, and then combined with self-media to run his own Weibo.

The account often posts some knowledge and popular science related to history and culture, but has accumulated a lot of fame.

I was instantly attracted when I saw Mr. Zhang's answer, and coupled with the words in the comment area, I began to have a great interest in idiom stories such as carving a boat and asking for a sword.

There is a comment that is true, over time, not all the records that have been passed down to future generations are correct, after all, sometimes history can be wrong.

Maybe what we're seeing now isn't really history?

Once this idea pops up, it will be difficult to dissipate, Qi Xueqing began to search for a large number of history and related history books, and he really found a little clue.

The story was first published in "Lü's Spring and Autumn Chajin", which is usually used in a derogatory sense, mostly referring to not knowing how to advance and retreat, sticking to the rules, and not knowing how to deal with things with the changes in the objective situation.

Huang Tingjian of the Northern Song Dynasty once had such a poem in "Reminiscences of the Xijiang Incident of the Bozhou": "The past carved the boat to fall the sword, and the people of the dead hairpin shed tears." ”

The dead hairpin here is also a famous historical allusion, with the meaning of nostalgia for the old in it.

The author here compares it to the carving of the boat to the sword, which shows that there may be other opinions as most people in the world think.

If it were just a literal meaning, then these idiom stories would not have been handed down to this day, and there must be a deeper meaning inside.

Qi Xueqing peeled back the cocoon, continued to go deeper, and wanted to explore the secrets behind these idiom stories, as if he had opened a dusty door to history, but suddenly found that something seemed wrong.

Qi Xueqing became more and more fascinated by the more he investigated, and finally posted all the information he sorted out on the Internet, which caused a lot of reprints and comments.

"The story of carving a boat for a sword is real, but the protagonist seems to be an old man who holds the boat."

"In this idiom story, there are many passengers on the boat. But when I looked up this history, I found that this was not the case, there should have only been two people on board. An old man, and a person with whom this classic story was born. ”

"But I checked a lot of literature and found that the person who talked to the old man was blank, and there was not even any record, I don't know where it came from, I don't know where it came from, I don't know where it went, it seems that it doesn't exist at all."

"The more I investigated, the more numb my scalp became, and I always felt that this history was shrouded in fog......"

For a while, this post was reposted a lot, it was originally a literary insight, but in the end it evolved into a hunting story, which immediately attracted netizens to join the discussion and launch an archaeological search together, but it is indeed as Qi Xueqing said.

There are many documents about this history and idioms and allusions, but it is strange that the source cannot be found.

It's like 'not knowing where to come and go', shrouded in fog, as if a ghost of history is wandering......
