The Year of Gengzi in 1840 was a humiliating year for the Chinese people: Under the attack of British warships, the Qing government was completely defeated, and the Qing army general Yishan surrendered with a white flag. Ma Huaishan, the general of Ya, complained a lot about his superiors. In retaliation from Yishan, he was dismissed from his post and exiled to Daozhou in southern Hunan. He was accompanied by two attendants, one named Zhu Putang and the other named Huang Jixiong. The two were beggars that Ma Huaishan took in in his early years. Before Ma Huaishan died, he divided a folk prescription into two and asked Zhu Putang to make the golden elixir and Huang Jixiong to make the silver elixir. The two elixirs were collectively called Puji elixir. Golden elixir and silver elixir have mediocre effects when used alone, but have miraculous effects when used together. Ma Huaishan designed this to make Zhu Putang and Huang Jixiong work together in the same boat. Zhu can't live without Huang, and Huang can't live without Zhu. They will be friends forever, and their friendship will last forever. What Ma Huaishan didn't expect was that the properties of medicine are easy to figure out, but human nature is hard to figure out: Zhu Putang is kind-hearted and uses Puji Dan as a good medicine to save the world; Huang Jixiong uses Puji Dan as a tool to make huge profits. This created a rift between the two and they often clashed. Huang Jixiong eventually angered the Boxers because of his excessive greed and was hunted down. The Zhu family was also implicated and fled Daozhou to avoid trouble. After the storm, Zhu Putang returned to Daozhou, but Huang Jixiong never came back. Huang Jixiong disappeared, and the silver elixir also disappeared. Zhu Putang just held a prescription for making the golden elixir, but it had no effect. From then on, a folk song came out from the banks of the Xiaoshui River: "Looking back at the heavenly stems and the earthly branches, the sixty reincarnations of Gengzi were chaotic, and disasters continued along the Xiaoshui River. The golden elixir and silver elixir ensured peace." How people look forward to the day when the golden elixir and silver elixir can come together to help the world! Zhu Putang also wanted to find Huang Jixiong, but the Zhu and Huang families seemed to be like ginseng merchants and it was difficult to see each other. However, no matter what changes have taken place in the lives of Zhu Putang, Huang Jixiong and their descendants, there is always a mysterious force that entangles the two families. The giant wheel of history is crushing the Gengzi curse one after another. Entering 2020, the new coronavirus outbreak broke out. In this new Gengzi year, what kind of life story will the Zhu and Huang families interpret? Worth the wait.

Marlen Haushofer's The Hidden Wall (1963) is an important work of postwar German literature and is regarded as an existential novel and a feminist fable. The story tells the story of an unknown woman trapped in an Alpine valley due to a mysterious barrier. She can only rely on a few animals and survive through farming and hunting. The novel is written calmly in a diary style, peeling off the shell of civilization, showing the process of women re-establishing a relationship with nature in extreme isolation, and challenging anthropocentric and patriarchal logic. Its early warning of nuclear crisis and ecological collapse was far ahead of its time, making it a classic in "ruin literature" that uses a female perspective to supplement the gaps in existentialism.
