Chapter 2: Absurd Plan

Muling Primary School is not large, but with its white walls and red tiles, it is considered spacious and bright compared to the conditions in remote villages.

So far, there are only two teachers in the entire school. One is the old principal who brought a group of people into the campus, and the other is Zhuang Lin, a "lost person" who stayed to teach more than half a year ago.

At this moment in a large classroom, Zhuang Lin is teaching music lessons to students.

Although it was a new song that I was teaching, the students learned it quickly and sang it happily because the lyrics were simple and the melody was catchy.

He also sang out the kind of vitality that Zhuang Lin expected, or rather, displayed it naturally.

When the people outside walked into the school's small playground, the students' cheerful singing could be heard.

"On the banyan tree by the pond
Cicadas are calling out summer~
On the swing next to the playground

Only butterflies landed on it.
Teacher's chalk on blackboard

Still chattering and writing non-stop."

Zhuang Lin led the singing and the children followed. The electronic organ classes he took as a child also allowed him to easily control the old organ in the classroom and play simple music smoothly.

The brisk and melodious singing was not absolutely uniform, but the relaxed atmosphere and the vitality revealed in the singing made the lead singer Zhuang Lin smile from the heart.

The people in the courtyard seemed to be infected by the singing and stopped to listen involuntarily.

The singing continued for a while before Director Zhou came back to his senses and asked others with some surprise.

"What song is this? I don't think I've ever heard it before."

As a person who has achieved artistic achievements in the field of film and television, Zhou Xianglin also has a considerable understanding of music, and there are few songs he has not heard at all.

When faced with Director Zhou's question, neither Mr. Liu, who looked thoughtful, nor the accompanying team members seemed able to give an answer.

The old principal thought about it and said.

"It's probably the new song that Teacher Zhuang taught the children."

"It turned out to be Teacher Zhuang!"

Director Zhou subconsciously glanced at the classroom over there and nodded slightly.

Teacher Zhuang, also known as Zhuang Lin, is a very imaginative young man. He left a deep impression on Director Zhou when they first met a few months ago, and they later discussed the feasibility of the script together for most of the night.

This world is similar to but different from Zhuang Lin’s hometown, but the limitations of the times are similar.

Zhuang Lin comes from a world with extremely developed information and entertainment, and has experienced intensive Internet surfing, which has determined that he has an imagination that goes beyond this era.

In addition, Zhuang Lin's own distinct temperament compared to others also created his image in Director Zhou's mind.

When everyone was attracted by the children's singing, someone broke the silence.

"Hey, forget about the song, let's go sign the contract!"

The most anxious person turned out to be the village chief who came with them. After he urged them a little, the group temporarily put aside their thoughts and walked through the classroom together towards the office on the second floor of the school.

The large number of people passing by the classroom also attracted the attention of the students and teachers inside, causing the children's singing to become disorderly and stop.

Pairs of curious eyes stared at the people passing by outside the doors and windows.

"Don't be distracted, come, let's sing it again--"

Zhuang Lin shouted at the right time to draw the students' attention back, and then continued to teach them to sing.
-
After the get out of class, the students said goodbye to the teacher, picked up their backpacks and rushed out of the classroom happily.

The courses for this semester are over.

In other words, the courses at Muling Primary School are over.

Zhuang Lin simply tidied up the podium, told the student on duty to go home early, and then walked out of the classroom quickly.

On the school playground, several people were measuring the grass and buildings with some kind of soft measuring tape, and some passing students stopped for a moment to look at them with curiosity.

Zhuang Lin took a few glances and walked towards the second floor of the school.

The teachers' office is on the second floor, and the spare classroom above is also the teachers' dormitory.

After going upstairs, Zhuang Lin hesitated for a moment and then went straight to the teacher's office. The people at the door seemed to have been looking at him since the beginning, including a local village chief and villagers.

Of course, there was no obstruction.

To be honest, Zhuang Lin was still feeling somewhat inexplicably nervous at this time, but he didn't show it on his face. By the time he reached the office door, the old principal and others inside had already spoken.

"Teacher Zhuang, please come in. Thank you for your hard work in teaching me!"

"Teacher Zhuang is here? Come in!" "Teacher Zhuang, nice to see you again!"

"You're welcome, Principal! Hello, Mr. Liu, Director Zhou!"

Zhuang Lin nodded in response, glanced around the office, and walked in.

Something like temperament seems ethereal, but you can tell it at a glance when you see it.

For example, Mr. Liu, when they first met, Zhuang Lin felt that he was of great importance.

For example, at another empty table at this moment, several bald men spread out papers and did research.

The temperament is also very well grasped. He is either a programmer or an engineering dog, and the one here obviously cannot be the former.

He brought an engineer with him this time, apparently in a hurry, not wanting to waste any time. The moment Zhuang Lin entered the office, lost in thought, Liu Shihao, who had been sitting next to the old principal, stood up, followed by Zhou Xianglin.

The two men shook hands with Zhuang Lin, and someone moved a stool aside, inviting them to sit down and discuss the matter.

"Teacher Zhuang, please take a seat. I'm sorry to bother you, but I still need your support, especially yours!"

"Serious words!"

Liu Shihao watched Zhuang Lin sit down and spoke in a very polite tone, not at all like a wealthy man beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

At the same time, the relevant personnel inside and outside the house who saw Zhuang Lin for the first time were also looking at him carefully.

Many people have seen many celebrities. Obviously, Mr. Zhuang is not very handsome in terms of appearance, but with his fair face and calm demeanor, he is obviously not an ordinary person.

To be honest, Zhuang Lin thought that people with outstanding temperament could be identified at a glance, but he didn't know that when he came to this world, his temperament also stood out in this remote village.

Director Zhou on the side suddenly asked.

"Teacher Zhuang, what's the name of the song you just taught us? We don't think we've ever heard it before!"

As soon as Zhuang Lin saw this person, he also answered shamelessly.

"It's not a famous song, it's a song I made up myself, called 'Childhood'!"

"Oh, I see! The name is very appropriate. Teacher Zhuang is truly talented. Perhaps after this, we will have more opportunities to cooperate!"

Zhou Xianglin's tone sounded like he was joking, but his expression didn't. Zhuang Lin just smiled awkwardly and didn't say much.

"Okay, let's get down to business. The old principal has agreed to sign the demolition contract. So, Teacher Zhuang, what are your thoughts? Are you willing to join?"

Liu Shihao's words relieved Zhuang Lin's embarrassment. He rarely asked about the "performers" personally, but Director Zhou said that Teacher Zhuang was a rare talent, so he would also give him due courtesy.

There was just one thing that Liu Shihao was a little confused about. He had never found out Zhuang Lin's exact hometown and family, even though he said he had lost a part of his memory.

Of course, it is not uncommon for people to be unregistered, but it is very rare for someone with Zhuang Lin's temperament and knowledge to be an unregistered person.

But Liu Shihao didn't need to think too much about these things. What he cared about most now was the plan itself.

"Yes, Mr. Zhuang, what do you think?"

Zhou Xianglin also asked a question, but no one else in the room spoke at this time. All eyes were briefly focused on Zhuang Lin.

After looking at the old principal who still had a calm expression, Zhuang Lin, who had already made a decision, no longer hesitated. His identity was already embarrassing, so there was nothing to hesitate about.

"I don't have anywhere else to go anyway. Mr. Liu, Director Zhou, I agree to join!"

Liu Shihao smiled, and Zhou Xianglin's smile was even brighter.

"Okay, then sign the contract and confidentiality agreement!"

When the two contracts were placed on the table, Zhuang Lin couldn't help but recall the first time he learned about this matter.

Even though Zhuang Lin had thought of many possibilities a few months ago, the facts that led to the crisis at Muling Primary School were presented before him in the most absurd form.

Even Zhuang Lin, a time traveler, felt the same way.

The Liu family was definitely a wealthy family. How wealthy they were, Zhuang Lin didn’t know at the time, and even now he still doesn’t fully understand it, but their level was definitely not low.

As the helmsman of the main family, Liu Shihao has only one son, Liu Hongyu. He has been smart and clever since he was young, and the family has high hopes for him.

It’s just that Liu Hongyu seems to have had some mental problems since his teenage years.

At first, Liu Shihao didn't take it seriously, thinking it was just teenage rebellion, until he realized the seriousness of the problem.

Liu Shihao didn't ask his son to be outstanding, but at least he hoped that he could live in peace. However, if he was just locked up in a mental hospital, both his son and his father would be very miserable.

The main symptom of his illness is this: Liu Hongyu believes he is inspired, born with a mission, and can travel through time and space, transcending the boundaries of ancient and modern times, seeking the mysterious variables between heaven and earth.
The door to immortality cannot be found in this world simply because the path to immortality was cut off in ancient times and the spiritual energy began to decline.

The spiritual energy in this world is so scarce that it is almost exhausted.

But it doesn’t matter, even if the road to immortality collapses, there must still be hidden immortals in the world in ancient times. Liu Hongyu is the destined person that the hidden immortal was waiting for before ascending. It’s just that he was born in the wrong era and was more than a thousand years late!
So Liu Hongyu believed that he must go back and he could definitely go back!
As long as he could go back to ancient times, even if he just found a place with beautiful mountains and rivers, the last surviving ancient immortal saint would come to save him, and Liu Hongyu would definitely reopen the path to immortality!

It took some effort to describe it using the words of Liu Shihao and others, but it was easy to understand for Zhuang Lin.

A time-travel fantasy maniac!

This situation is indeed extremely rare in this world. Even in Zhuang Lin's hometown, it is very rare to develop to the point where one needs to take medicine and control their hands and feet.

Liu Hongyu was so crazy that he attempted suicide four times. Although his attempts failed because of the protection of the Liu family, he still scared Liu Shihao a lot.

"I've sought medical help from many doctors, including Buddhist and Taoist celebrities, as well as folk performers and sorcerers. In the end, I realized that this heart disease can only be cured with a heart medicine!"

Liu Shihao's original words also led to his method of treating diseases.

By gathering the opinions of several psychological experts and Buddhist and Taoist masters, Liu Hongyu developed a special treatment plan, regardless of cost or expense!

Liu Shihao invited his best friend, film and television industry tycoon Zhou Xianglin, and spent a huge amount of money to create an extremely realistic ancient style.

How realistic is it?

In the words of Zhou Xianglin and Liu Shihao, it is a small ancient society that can function perfectly!
Everything is done with the utmost care, not only must there be no flaws in the construction, but even the actors involved must strive for perfection.

This is definitely not a small matter. Everyone must sign a confidentiality agreement and be prepared to live in this society for three to five years.

What made all the actors willing to achieve this goal together was the generous remuneration given by Liu Shihao, which was not limited to ordinary money. It was so generous that most people of this era could not refuse!
In psychology, the best way to break fear is to let the patient face the fear directly, and the best way to break delusion is to let the patient recognize the fantasy himself and then return to reality from the heart!
The treatment plan also has a special name, namely: "Breaking Delusion Plan"!
