Chapter 799: Chapter 759 Pinocchio
Lin Yuan wrote a short-story version of “The Adventures of Pinocchio.”
Actually, there is also a full-length version, which is the original text, consisting of thirty-six chapters and about a hundred thousand words.
Of course.
Even as a short-story version, Pinocchio’s tale still maintains a considerable level of interest.
So.
After this fairy tale was published, Yu Qin read through the content herself first and then showed a surprised expression.
...
It’s a very interesting fairy tale!
More precisely, “The Adventures of Pinocchio” seems not just a fairy tale but also has a touch of a fable.
The difference between them lies in:
Fairy tales aim to tell a story that children like;
Whereas fables often aim to elevate the the, expounding on so educationally rich morals from the angle of mixing education with pleasure.
Speaking of which.
Adults and children view fairy tales from different angles.
Stories that adults might find juvenile could be beloved by children, and those that adults think look good may not be enjoyed by children.
Different ages, different feelings.
Yu Qin liked this story very much, but she didn’t know how the children would react.
“Mommy, tell it!”
Honghong was already sitting eagerly across from her mother.
In Honghong’s mind, although Chu Kuang was a bad guy, the fairy tales he wrote were all very good.
“Alright.”
Yu Qin smiled, then began to narrate gently, “In Fairytale Town, there was a piece of wood that could talk.”
“How can a piece of wood talk?”
Huahua suddenly interjected from the side.
Honghong was unhappy, “Shuke and Beta can talk, and they are mice!”
Mom smiled, “Ordinary wood can’t talk, but this is a talking piece of wood, so Grandpa Zhang decided to carve this piece of wood into a person.”
Honghong asked, “Didn’t Grandpa Zhang die?”
Grandpa Zhang is that upright character from “Yang Xiaofan and Qin Tiange” who was the first one to receive the ‘takeaway al’, and now the carpenter in this fairy tale was also called Grandpa Zhang.
“…”
Yu Qin was stunned for a mont, but soon guessed the purpose behind Chu Kuang naming the character that way, feeling more moved in her heart.
She smoothly said:
“Actually, Grandpa Zhang didn’t die; he just entered Fairytale Town and beca a carpenter.”
Children who have read Chu Kuang’s fairy tales, like Blue Star, know that Fairytale Town is a beautiful place, inhabited by various princes and princesses, rmaids, and of course, including Shuke and Beta, among others.
In short, all the characters in Chu Kuang’s fairy tales live in that little town.
Yes.
Lin Yuan spared no effort in crafting Fairytale Town.
He unified the background of all his fairy tale stories, allowing them to all take place in this place called Fairytale Town.
As a result.
Fairytale town beca a place many children yearned for.
After all, there in Fairytale Town were the beautiful Snow White, Alice who could grow big, and rmaids…
“Good, Grandpa Zhang didn’t die!”
Honghong was very happy and urged her mother to continue, “Keep telling it!”
Yu Qin smiled slightly and then continued the story about Pinocchio.
“Pinocchio can’t lie…”
“Every ti he lied, Pinocchio’s nose would grow longer…”
“After he told many lies consecutively, his nose had beco as long as the room, and it was not even convenient for him to turn around on the spot.”
“…”
Yu Qin narrated the story vividly.
Honghong gradually beca srized by the story.
At that mont, Yu Qin noticed that, unbeknownst to her, Huahua had also co over, listening seriously.
‘The children really like this story.’
She thought to herself with so joy, narrating even more earnestly.
She didn’t notice that the children’s faces were gradually changing.
“…Finally, Pinocchio’s nose finally beca as it was originally.”
A ten-thousand-word story didn’t take too long to tell.
When the story ended, Yu Qin wanted to ask the children for their thoughts, but she saw Huahua suddenly stand up with a worried face.
“What’s wrong?”
Yu Qin was a bit concerned. Was there sothing wrong with the story?
Wasn’t she absorbed in it just a mont ago?
“Mommy…”
Huahua said with a downcast face, “My nose is getting longer, I don’t want my nose to grow long, everyone will laugh at !”
“What?”
“I won’t lie again next ti, actually, the toy snake in Xiaoi’s bag was put there by , and during the last test, I actually didn’t pass, and the ti before that I accidentally broke the classroom window, but didn’t admit it…”
Yu Qin was speechless.
Honghong started to feel scared too, touching her own nose, feeling like it was different than usual:
“Has my nose gotten longer too?”
“You lied too?”
Yu Qin was instantly covered in taphorical black lines.
Honghong was close to tears, “I only lied once. Last ti when mom went out, I secretly watched a cartoon at ho. I turned off the TV before mom ca back, I only watched for a little while…”
Yu Qin was caught between laughter and tears.
She patted the little heads of the two children, “Your noses haven’t grown long because you bravely admitted your mistakes.”
“Really?”
The two kids were sceptical and even ran to look at themselves in the mirror to compare.
Yu Qin said, “You can’t lie again next ti, if you lie too much you will end up like Pinocchio with a really long nose…”
“I won’t ever lie again!”
Huahua spoke loudly, then subconsciously touched their nose again.
“ neither!”
Honghong beca much more righteous.
While Yu Qin found it amusing, she also felt an inexplicable stirring in her heart. It was the first ti she directly felt the educational significance a fairy tale could carry.
“Actually, Chu Kuang is a really good person.”
She thought this to herself, filled with emotion and warmth.
Then, she instinctively touched her own rather prominent nose and felt an inexplicable flutter of anxiety.
…
And the scene at Yu Qin’s ho was just the tip of the iceberg.
Similar situations were happening in many families.
“Mom, I was wrong!”
“Dad, I won’t ever lie again!”
“Please make my nose go back to normal!”
“I didn’t lie, why has my nose grown longer?”
“You got stung by a mosquito.”
“So, don’t lie, okay? The nose of a liar will grow long!”
“…”
This was probably a different kind of childhood trauma.
It was like the education thod of “cry any more and you’ll be eaten by a tiger.”
The difference was that the forr was much more reasonable, with a very strong effect of teaching through fun, filled with positive significance, while the latter could easily affect the healthy developnt of a child’s body and mind.
…
And as the influence of this fairy tale began to spread from individual to collective, the internet finally beca abuzz!
The fairy tale beca an overnight sensation!
Countless netizens left excited comnts!
“This story is so fun!”
“After listening to the fairy tale, my child confessed to all the mistakes he recently made. I was so mad I could have jumped up and down. So it turns out my little goldfish was killed by this mischievous kid!”
“The nose growing when lying, isn’t this creating a new childhood trauma haha.”
“The old rascal is tough on adult readers, but all soft knives for children. However, I like it, and there’s an interesting detail. The supporting characters ntioned in this fairy tale are basically those who ‘left the stage’ in ‘Yang Xiaofan and Qin Tiange.’ It’s like they’ve been resurrected in Fairytale Town!”
“I’m very grateful to Teacher Chu Kuang for writing such a wonderful story for children!”
“Even though the story is full of educational color, it does not preach with tedious morality throughout and can be understood by children. It is indeed a very exciting fairy tale!”
“My child keeps clamoring to go to Fairytale Town and play, saying they want to make friends with Pinocchio (laughing while crying).”
“Interesting Pinocchio, the nose growing when lying, this setting is too fun!”
“This fairy tale is even more interesting than ‘Snow White’!”
“Alright, for now, I’ll forgive the old rascal’s ruthless behavior. The effect of this fairy tale is perfect for coaxing children!”
…
At the sa ti.
Authors in the fairy tale industry also finished reading the content of “The Adventures of Pinocchio.”
“Oh my!”
“What a fantastic story!”
“This was written in two hours?”
“The nine well-known fairy tale masters who had a Literary Duel with Chu Kuang, they really weren’t unjustly defeated!”
“This is one of the best fairy tales I’ve ever read!”
“Wait a second…”
“Doesn’t the na Pinocchio sound familiar?”
“Damn!”
“Isn’t that a lyric from the song ‘Fairytale Town’?”
“Have you heard Pinocchio always telling lies?”
“This isn’t a two-hour effort, the old rascal had thought of this story long before that song was released!”
“…”
Everyone finally found the blind spot!
This wasn’t a fairy tale written in two hours, but the ssage it revealed was even more terrifying!
The song nad “Fairytale Town” truly represented a series of fairy tale plots!
The entire Fairytale Town linked together had already ford a fairy tale universe with a significant influence on contemporary children!
And Pinocchio was the new mber of this fairy tale universe!
For a ti!
Pinocchio beca a smashing hit!
