Poetic Millennium

When a poem has a heartbeat, who is guarding the pulse of civilization? "The soul of poetry is immortal, like stars from generation to generation." This is not a poem, but a life and death oath that has been passed down for thousands of years. "Poetry for a Thousand Years" reveals for you the most thrilling secrets behind history: before Qu Yuan sank into the river, he sealed the soul of the poem "Li Sao" into a jade jade; Sima Qian endured the humiliation and continued history by hiding an original copy of Chu Songs in the interlayer of bamboo slips; Wang Zhaojun went out of the fortress and threw a bronze mirror into the Yellow River, with the "Song on the Fortress" engraved on the back of the mirror that no one could understand... From Miluo River to Tongque Terrace, from Orchid Pavilion to Dongli, a group of "poets" forgotten by history books are relaying in secret. They are jailers, masons, widows, and hermits. In the flames of burning books and humiliating scholars, and under the iron heel of Wu Huanhua, they fight for their lives for one belief: as long as poetry remains, civilization will not die. Now, the last poet has received a three-thousand-year countdown - an unknown force is quietly erasing the "poetic gene" of civilization. In his hand, there was only a blood-stained jade jewel and an instruction that spanned time and space: "Find all the souls of poetry before everything is annihilated." Open this book and you will see how words have a heartbeat and how poetry breathes in the darkness. This is a battle to defend civilization that spans three thousand years, and everyone who reads poetry is the newest guardian of this underground river. As long as poetry exists, civilization will never be destroyed.
