Daolang's songs are never simple lyrical singing, but use lyrics and music as a mirror to reflect the real world in which everyone is living, ups and downs and struggles.
In 2023, "Rakshasa Sea City" exploded across the Internet, but countless people were trapped in the regret of "not understanding" - after repeated interpretations, it was either fragmented or misread.
Writer and screenwriter Zhang Wumao relied on his profound writing skills and practical insight to launch a series of short videos explaining Daolang's lyrics that quickly hit the screen, with more than 100 million views on the entire network, and millions of readers urged him to update. After two years of hard work, this insight was finally compiled into a book, presenting the first sincere work that systematically interprets "sword science".
This book gradually disassembles the three albums "A Few Folk Songs", "Tanci Huaben" and "Everyone in the World", with more than 30 popular and niche songs. From the criticism of reality in "The City of Rakshasa" to the six hundred years of waiting in "The Flower Demon"; from the separation of yin and yang in "Listening in the Mirror" to the ordinary praise in "Thirty Miles from the Strange Terrace".
Based on rigorous textual research, the author dissects and analyzes the historical allusions, folk context, worldly mentality, and the joys and sorrows behind the lyrics one by one, so that every reader can understand the human world hidden in the melody written by Daolang.
