I Don't Know How Old I Am in the Depths of the Mountain

Lin Wanshan saw the notebook for the first time on the winter solstice in the 23rd year of the Republic of China. The broom swept across the blue brick floor, raising fine dust. Next to the last tile in the northwest corner, the broom hits a bump. Lin Wanshan squatted down and saw something strange around the edge of the blue brick through the dim light. He dug at it with his nails, and the blue brick came loose, revealing a black hole. He took out a camphor wood box from the hole. An exquisite copper lock hung on the box, with the keyhole shaped like a seven-petal plum blossom - he had only seen patterns of this kind of lock in antique shops in the town. It was said to be a thing from the former Qing palace, called the "Seven Orifices Exquisite Lock", which has long been lost. Somehow, he took out a piece of thin wire from his arms - he had loved playing with these ingenious gadgets since he was a child. With the help of the light, he pondered the keyhole for a long time, held his breath, inserted the wire, turned left three times, turned half a turn right, and lifted it gently. "Click." The lock is unlocked. In the box lies a notebook. The cover is a dark blue homespun that has faded to gray and is badly worn around the edges. Turning to the first page, there is neat small script: "In the twenty-sixth year of the reign of Emperor Guangxu, Gengzi was born, and he was born in July. Yu, Lin Muzong, was originally from Yuhuan, a fishing town in eastern Zhejiang. He was an official at the fourth rank of Daotai. Now he and his family of twenty-seven have escaped into the mountains and kept their names anonymous. It is not fear of death, but fear of incompetence on the road. , The righteousness was gone. The new party was ruthless in the name of "revolution", and because of protecting the villagers and preventing their plundering, I became angry with Chen Jingsheng, the leader of the "Pioneer Association", who threatened to kill me as a last resort. " Lin Muzong? ! Taizu? !
