It is a wandering and gazing in Chongqing, a magical city with mountains as its bones, rivers as its veins, and fog as its veil. The author uses his pen as a lens and his heart as a film to capture the endless flow of life in this city from ancient times to the present.
The stories here are layered. Ancient Bayu legends seep into the cracks of the bluestone road, wartime beacon smoke settles on the rock walls of the air-raid shelters, the harbour's trackers' horns and the whistles of the Chaotianmen ship interweave in the river wind, the smoke from the Tongzi Tower has not yet dissipated, and the lights of Hongya Cave are already bright... They are not linear narratives, but like the city itself, coexisting, entwining, and dialogues in an orderly manner based on the mountain's situation.
This is a "city film poetry collection" dedicated to Chongqing.
Concept: Chongqing Story

It's hard work to be able to write so many words. I also wanted to write Kuang Lianhai's article before... Basically I gave up after 2,000 words. Writing an article is too taxing on my brain [Rainbow Fart]
