World view setting
- **Blood Plateau**: Luocun at the junction of Yunnan and Tibet in the 1940s, a place surrounded by snow-capped mountains four thousand meters above sea level. Prayer flags fluttered on the Mani pile, and the snow line in the distance shone like a cold weapon.
- **Fo Guang Bing Xuan**: The whole village believes in Tibetan Buddhism, and the sound of prayer wheels and the roar of guns form a strange ensemble. Tara on the temple mural looks down at the girls with their hair cut short and shouldering their rifles.
- **Wolf Spirit Legend**: Ancient Thangka records that the snow-capped white wolf is the incarnation of Vajrayana. The wolf king with the flame-shaped white spot on his right front paw can distinguish between loyal and traitorous people, and only protects those with pure hearts.
### Story summary
- **Snowy Night Destiny**: Ten-year-old Zhang Xiaoqing found a gray wolf injured by a trap next to a Mani pile. Violating the village rule that "if a wounded wolf must be killed," he used the Medicine Buddha pendant left by his grandmother to stop the wolf's bleeding.
- **Fenghuo Bodhi**: The Anti-Japanese War broke out in full force, and all women over the age of 16 in Luocun went to the front line. When Xiaoqing was left alone to take care of the wounded in the temple, she discovered that the gray wolf always brought her hemostatic herbs on moonlit nights.
- **Wolf Eyes Photo**: On the night when the defeated troops sacked the village, the adult gray wolf led the monks to relocate the villagers in advance. In the reflection of the wolf's eyes, Xiaoqing saw the whole process of the defeated soldiers encountering an avalanche in the canyon.
