Take You to a Distant Place
by Snow Desert
About This Novel
"Take You to the Distance", "The Mountain God's Arrows" and "The Descendants of the Huns" belong to the "Snow Desert Takes You to the Distance" series of cultural travel notes, recording the author's self-driving cultural journey across the land from Lingnan to the west, pursuing his dream of mountains and rivers. The book is divided into two parts: "Memory of History" and "Steps of the Present". It uses history, travel notes and photography to trace the past and present lives of Lingnan mountains and rivers, and freeze the memory of mountains and rivers in rural China. In the first part, the author writes about the eccentric customs of the ancestors of Baiyue, Zhao Tuo, the founder of humanities in Lingnan, the fall of the Nanyue Kingdom, "there is no China after the cliff mountain", the Lingnan wooden fish song culture, the Lingnan natives fighting with weapons and other "historical memories"; in the second part, the author records his experiences and travels from Lingnan through Guangxi, Guizhou, Yunnan, Sichuan to Gansu, and freezes each "step of the present". On the road, all journeys are homecomings; on the road, all destinations are hometowns.
