Taking the burning and rebirth of the thousand-year-old temples "Baiyun Temple" and "Baiyun Academy" as the warp and weft, we weave an epic picture spanning the Tang, Song, Qing, Republic of China and the present.
The novel focuses on the dual propositions of "inheritance of context" and "fission of the times". Through the ups and downs of the characters in the story, it asks how the fire of civilization continues to survive in the flames of war, change and forgetfulness, and ultimately reveals the profound philosophy that "the real ancient temple is not in the bricks and wood, but in the human heart."
Intention: Even if the temple is in ruins, as long as there are people looking up, the fire will never be extinguished.
