Synopsis

A breakfast stall in the old neighborhood hides a shocking secret. Yun He’s yin-yang hot pot can simmer up a rich, charred aroma, but it can also bring a century-old tale of the fire trade to the surface. At the blacksmith’s shop, Yu Xiao can swing the thousand-pound iron anvil, but he cannot erase the character for “guard” that his grandfather carved into it. At the courier station, Feitian can send a water-splitting talisman flying across ten thousand miles, yet he cannot make sense of the affection hidden in his stammer.

When forces from the East set their sights on the Five Elements tokens, and intelligent machines challenge crafts honed over a thousand years, the three ordinary people from the streets are shouldering more than an iron pot, an anvil, and talisman paper. They are carrying the backbone of seventy-two trades.

The porridge simmers with perfect heat; the iron is forged with the strength of human character; the water carries on a legacy. From the old scholar tree to the Mogao Caves, from an apprentice’s first scrap of iron to the spotlight at a global intangible cultural heritage exhibition, they show you in the simplest way: the so-called jianghu is nothing more than keeping at the work in your hands and protecting the people in your heart to the very end.

Open this book now and breathe in the steaming porridge, a pot that can reflect the faces of your ancestors. Simmering inside is the everyday warmth of life that you and I both know.
