I Came from Qilian Mountain

In 2026, photographer Shen Mo suffered an avalanche in the Qilian Mountains and woke up to find himself lying in a pool of blood - next to a Han army scout who had just died in battle. He was taken into Shule City and met the guard Geng Gong. With modern knowledge, he helped the defenders find water sources, make defensive equipment, and even used the flash of his camera to scare off the Hun shaman. When the siege ended and the thirteen people returned to Yumen, Shen Shen discovered that as long as they touched specific "mountain and river tokens", they could travel through time and space. He witnessed Huo Qubing's 19-year-old sealing of the wolf as Juxu, accompanied Xuanzang through the desperate situation of eight hundred miles of quicksand, witnessed the tragedy of Zuo Zongtang carrying the coffin out of confinement, witnessed the tragedy of Emperor Yang of the Sui Dynasty crossing the mountain in the snow, and guarded the sealing of the Sutra Cave in the Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang... Every time he traveled through time, he forged life-and-death relationships with people in history; every time he returned, his life was being consumed. The mountain spirit told him: By gathering the seven tokens, he can become the guardian of the mountains and rivers - either return to the ordinary and forget everything; or turn into a long night lamp and illuminate this land forever. When Silence stood in front of the Jade Gate, figures from seven eras appeared one after another, all waiting for his answer. He chose to stay. From then on, there was an extra night light on the beacon at Yumen Pass. Occasionally, tourists see a figure in the sunset, holding a camera and smiling at the mountains and rivers. He met Geng Gong who guarded Shule City, 19-year-old Huo Qubing, Xuanzang who smuggled in, and Zuo Zongtang who carried the coffin out of customs... Seven mountain and river tokens, seven eras that changed history, and a final decision that cannot be turned back. Mountains and rivers are not old, I am immortal.
