There have always been legends about Mobei. Le Zun once wanted to build a home for the sun, and the location he chose was Dunhuang, because there was no grass growing in the Sanwei Mountains, but there was flaming sunshine.
Stone mills are a commonly used tool in rural areas in the north. Zhao Xiuling even went all the way to the desert in the northwest just to create such a God-given show.
In an era when technology was underdeveloped, people used stone mills to assist with work and planting. At that time, although stone mills were very slow and inefficient, they still had a unique flavor.
