This small village has an elegant name: Qingxi Village. According to folklore that cannot be proven scientific, Qing means "a house that accumulates good deeds will surely have more Qing"; west means "if you travel far to the west, you will surely find paradise". The word "West" has a magical artistic conception in Chinese culture. The holy land in Chinese culture is the Western Heaven. "Journey to the West" by the Ming Dynasty novelist Wu Cheng'en has sown the seeds of spiritual food in the spiritual will of countless generations of Chinese people. Isn't the catastrophe of ninety-nine and eighty-one a reflection of the life of every living person? In order to reach the Western Holy Land, they must slay demons along the way. No matter how the world changes, no matter whether anyone pays attention to the new graves in the deserted tombs, no matter whether there are history books to write about their ordinary life, as one of the epitome of countless villages in China, the same stories may be played out here, or unique historical records may be written. The people living in this land let people see the deep desire of the Chinese people for a better life and the tenacious wisdom to survive in difficult times. At the same time, they still silently tell the world: We have lived in this cruel and beautiful world with our own wisdom.
