Xunyang Zhenhun

Entries for the 2025 Jiujiang Lushan Theme Essay Contest. Thousands of years ago, the poet Li Bai suppressed the ink nightmare with "Wanglu Mountain Waterfall". The seal was loosened and the remaining soul was ready to move. The aura of poetry in Xunyangjie is getting thinner and thinner day by day, Ruichang paper-cutting has lost its sealing power, Xiushuining black tea cannot nourish the soul, and Hukou grass dragon dance can no longer bring rain. The mysterious remnant soul residing in Lin Fu's consciousness awakens, and it turns out to be Du Fu, the poet saint from thousands of years ago! Under his guidance, Lin Fu discovered that Jiujiang's intangible cultural heritage techniques had hidden echoes with ancient poetry. Paper-cutting can hollow out the soul and lock the spirit, dragon dancing can draw thunder with its nine tunes, spiritual tea can awaken the spirit and protect the heart, and he is the chosen mediator who can combine these powers. When the ink nightmare broke through the seal and caused a rain of ink over Jiujiang City, the forest of cultural monuments in Bailudong Academy began to shatter. Lin Fu must use poetry as his blade and intangible cultural heritage as his armor, and recite "Xunyang Soul Song" at the top of Xianglu Peak, which integrates Jiujiang's landscape and humanities. The fragrance of tea silhouette, the poetry of dragon chant. This young man, who is considered useless, will use the most traditional cultural power to protect the thousand-year inheritance of his hometown in the fantasy world of Xunyang Realm!
