桃花源记【晋•陶渊明】
晋太元中,武陵人捕鱼为业,缘溪行,忘路之远近。
忽逢桃花林,夹岸数百步,中无杂树,芳草鲜美,落英缤纷;渔人甚异之。
复前行,欲穷其林。
林尽水源,便得一山。
山有小口,仿佛若有光,便舍船,从口入。
初极狭,才通人;复行数十步,豁然开朗。
土地平旷,屋舍俨然。
有良田、美池、桑、竹之属,阡陌交通,鸡犬相闻。
其中往来种作,男女衣着,悉如外人;黄发垂髫,并佁然自乐。
见渔人,乃大惊,问所从来;具答之。
便要还家,设酒、杀鸡、作食。
村中闻有此人,咸来问讯。
自云:
先世避秦时乱,率妻子邑人来此绝境,不复出焉;遂与外人间隔。
问今是何世?
乃不知有汉,无论魏、晋!
此人一一为具言所闻,皆叹惋。
余人各复延至其家,皆出酒食,停数日,辞去。
此中人语云:
“不足为外人道。
”
既出,得其船,便扶向路,处处志之。
及郡下,诣太守,说如此。
太守即遣人随其往,寻向所志,遂迷不复得路。
南阳刘子骥,高尚士也,闻之,欣然规往,未果,寻病终。
后遂无问津者。
