**During the Taiyuan era of the Eastern Jin dynasty, there was a man in the Wuling county who made a living by fishing. He traveled along the stream in his boat and forgot how far he had gone. Suddenly, he came across a peach blossom forest, which grew on both sides of the stream for several hundred steps with no other trees in between. The flowers and grass were fresh and beautiful, and the fallen petals covered the ground. The fisherman was amazed by the sight and continued to sail forward, hoping to reach the end of the forest. At the end of the peach forest, he found the source of the stream, which was a mountain with a small cave on it, emitting a faint light. He got off his boat, went into the cave and found that the cave was narrow at first, only allowing one person to pass through. After walking for a few dozen steps, it suddenly became open and bright, revealing a vast expanse of flat land with rows of neat houses, fertile fields, beautiful ponds and groves of mulberry and bamboo trees. Paths criss-crossed through the fields, and the sounds of roosters crowing and dogs barking could be heard everywhere. The people in the fields were dressed just like the people outside the Peach Blossom Spring. The old and the young were all peaceful and happy, enjoying their own lives.** - Upscaled by <@1089165450404966511> (fast)
