    Ode to Mountains and Rivers: Vast expanses of blue waves reflect the setting sun; verdant mountains rise into the sky; the Five Sacred Mountains, shrouded in mist and haze, conceal the sword's edge. The Yellow River, winding nine times, nurtures the Han and Tang dynasties; camel bells echo far beyond the Jade Gate Pass; fishing lights flicker long on boats on Dongting Lake; who has cut a thousand feet of cloud brocade to pave the misty lanes of Jiangnan? The Great Wall, winding like a dragon and snake; the snow line of Kunlun Mountains is tied to flowing clouds; the Sichuan and Chongqing plank roads hang with the sun and moon; the Dunhuang Grottoes are like starry sands; steeds gallop in the north, chasing the wind; the kapok trees of Lingnan are dipped in cinnabar; ten thousand miles of waves solidify at the bottom of the inkstone; every stroke of the brush depicts Qin and Han dynasty tiles; where the sea of ​​clouds surges, the pine trees roar. A flock of geese surges across the sky, their majestic forms written in the air. Beside the Vermilion Bird Bridge, the chime bells resonate; on the bronze tripod, ancient seal script is discerned. A thousand years of spirit are forged in the green brush; the brushstrokes of ink remain undiminished, the universe turns. The inkstone still boils, the waves of spring and autumn; the Book of Songs and the Chu Ci transform into stars; the Tang and Song styles brew moonlight; the ancient road, the west wind, the lean horse's shadow—all become ink paintings, dotting the vast expanse. Behold today, a ribbon of color is embroidered, dragon patterns are newly embroidered, a new rainbow hangs. A thousand lands are like a painting, admired by all for a thousand autumns. A single stroke paints the waves of the Yangtze River; a few strokes outline the length of the Yellow River; ten thousand scrolls of mountains and rivers are gathered in the sleeves; the sun and moon shine together, sharing the light of the heavens.

    Reader note

    This one book on the shelf is enough. Every divination word has a reasonable explanation, every prescription has a source, and they are all absolutely true and effective. The young Taoist priest is kind, but not a saint. There are multiple female leads, but he is not promiscuous. It features high-level martial arts but is not bloody.

    Reader note

    These two novels are so incredibly moving 😭 One, *Handing Over the Time Gate, Bringing National Revenge in 1937*, lets us follow the protagonist and use the power of the future to seek justice for that humiliating history; the other, *Handing Over the Time Gate, A Cute Kid Takes His Ancestors to See a Prosperous Era*, lets us follow 3-year-old Beibei as she pulls our ancestors out of the flames of war to see the prosperity they protected with their lives. There's no melodramatic romance, no personal triumphs, only a deep-seated patriotism and a two-way journey across time. When our ancestors see China today, all their waiting and sacrifices have found their meaning. I couldn't stop crying all night.

    Reader note

    I recommend this book for several reasons. First, the premise is excellent (it breaks away from traditional cultivation novels and has an extremely vast world-building); second, the character details are superb (it doesn't follow the usual path); and third, the supporting characters leave a deep impression after reading (their names are all very well-chosen).
