"Cultural relics are silent, but they are waiting, waiting for the person who can hear their voices."
Su Muqiu, a Chinese travel blogger who uses his lens to measure the world, lives a free and easy life. However, the moment he stepped into the British Museum, his life trajectory was completely changed.
In that palace filled with countless treasures, he encountered a talking ivory cattail fan, which transformed into a little girl - Gui Xia. Her eyes were as clear as water, and her voice was as clear as a bell, but it was full of helplessness and pleading: "I want to go home..."
"Go home?" Su Muqiu's heart was severely pinched. He knows well that behind this lies the helplessness and longing of countless cultural relics, as well as the scars and waiting of Chinese culture.
From that moment on, he embarked on an unknown road. The cultural relics seemed to be given life, and their shadows appeared in front of Su Muqiu's eyes, telling ancient stories and conveying longing for his homeland. Su Muqiu knew that this was a difficult journey, but he could not back down because he heard their voices and felt their warmth.
"Brother, can you take us home?" The little girl's tears fell on Su Muqiu's heart, and also on the starting point of this journey.
He began to shuttle between reality and mystery, looking for the possibility of returning cultural relics. Under the lights of the museum, he talked with the ghosts of cultural relics; in ancient documents, he searched for clues to history; and in Guixia, this little girl who walked out of the cultural relics became his softest concern.
This is a protection that spans time and space, and it is also a spiritual awakening. On the road of protecting cultural relics, Su Muqiu gradually understood the history and culture behind them, and also understood the responsibilities she shouldered.
"I will take you home, to return to summer." Su Muqiu's voice was firm but gentle.
This is a story about love and responsibility, a wonderful encounter between cultural relics and modern people, and a journey of Chinese culture revitalizing itself in the hearts of modern youth. When cultural relics "speak" and modern youth respond, an adventure about protection and return begins.
Purpose: return cultural relics to China
