When he was twelve years old, Shen Zhaoning wrote "Horse Tramples the Huns", which shocked everyone in the house. The son of a general, a good man in both civil and military affairs, everyone said that this son had a bright future.
When he was twenty-four years old, he was driven out of the military camp with a disabled arm, carrying eighty wounds from military sticks on his back, and carrying the graves of two hundred and ninety-eight brothers in his heart.
The general's dream was shattered. The high-spirited young man was boiled into ashes bit by bit by reality.
He traveled through mountains and rivers, met a woman who left tea for him in a small town in the south of the Yangtze River, and learned to breathe again among famous mountains and rivers. He used his left hand to hold the pen again, and what he wrote was not about fighting and fighting, but about calmness and gentleness.
Many years later, someone asked him: Do you regret it?
He took up his pen and wrote eight words——
There is tea here, don't miss it. Well.
This is a story about brokenness and reconciliation. It tells how a person is defeated by reality and how to make peace with himself. It talks about the disillusionment of the general's dream, and also talks about the temperature of a bowl of tea.
Qingshan never asks where they came from, but only accepts everyone who returns.
