About This Novel
This book is a long historical novel, based on true stories from ancient town chronicles. The land in southern Liaoning from Dalian to Xiuyan has many hot springs and is rich in jade. In recent years, it has been considered by experts to be the Qingqiu Kingdom in the "Book of Mountains and Seas". When the Revolution of 1911 was raging, the ancient town of Dalian, Piziwo, was still under the rule of the Japanese and was called "Guandong Prefecture". People in the ancient town believe in shamanism, which means "all things have animism and totem worship". The Pizi in the ancient town are shamanic totems. They are smart, naughty, and good at imitating human language and behavior, just like a beautiful and warm fairy tale world. In 1920, all Pizi were poisoned by the Japanese and became a mystery of the century. University lecturer Zhou Ye and Japanese student Yukiko came to the ancient town to jointly explore the cruel truth about the extinction of Pizi by the Japanese. As soon as the investigation began, Zhou Ye fell into emotional entanglements. He is admired by the Japanese female student Yukiko, but he has a soft spot for his first love girlfriend Zhaoyue, whom he met not long ago. The Russian girl Nadya also has a crush on him... The divorced Zhaoyue does not accept Zhou Ye's proposal and only agrees to be his lover, which makes Zhou Ye very troubled but has no solution. Zhaoyue is a descendant of Aixinjueluo. Her maternal grandmother is the "shaman" and is still in Piziwo today. Back in the ancient town, the anti-Japanese deeds of Ma Erye, Ju Shide and other ancestors made Zhou Ye passionate, and a bloody mystery of national courage and wisdom gradually unfolded. The shamanic world allows them to feel the original spiritual power of a nation and its profound enlightenment significance for today's world. From the magical mineral water in Pizi's nest, Zhou Ye found clues to Pizi's death. Xuezi's grandfather, Hegangchuan, was stationed in Piziwo at that time. When he was dying, he went to Dalian to pay homage to the Chinese woman he once admired - the late Zhou Ye's grandmother, Ju Jiaxian, and finally solved the final mystery. The Pizi that can change its nine tails at a specific moment shows that it is the legendary nine-tailed fox, which has hidden magical powers to avoid being hunted by humans. At this point, Qingqiu Country's three major products, hot springs, jade and nine-tailed fox, have been gathered together. After a change of heart, Zhao Yue chose to leave quietly. After her grandmother died, she returned to Piziwo from Dalian to take over the shaman's mission, determined to develop the traditional culture of her nation. Zhou Ye finally came together with Xuezi, and the descendants of the two nations finally untied the knot of blood feud for generations and welcomed a better new world together.
