The Treacherous Road in Southern Yunnan

My name is Li Xing. I went to high school in 2001. After graduation, I joined the army. When my two-year compulsory period expired, I followed my comrade Lingling to his hometown of Yunnan. Lingling is from the Yi ethnic group in southern Yunnan. He is agile, knows the rules of the mountains and fields, and has a hard mouth and a soft heart. I am a son of a farmer, a former soldier, able to carry out tasks, courageous, and stable in trouble. We started looking for work in Kunming, and went all the way to Ailao Mountain, villages along the Lancang River, remote mountain construction sites, and Laolin Station. We wanted to make some solid money, but we ran into a series of folk taboos, evil and strange things, and old unsolved cases.
