Zhiqiu Is Following

After his mentor Qin Mugu disappeared mysteriously, Ye Zhiqiu, a doctor of folklore, found a blood-stained manuscript of "Twenty-Four Solar Terms Folk Customs" in his study, as well as an audio tape recording a fierce dispute between Qin Mugu and his old friend Bai Shu. Following the clues, she went to Shiyou Village in Jiangxi to find Wu Laogui, the inheritor of Nuo dance, and learned that Qin Mugu and Bai Shuzhi both belonged to a folk custom investigation group called "Sui Shishe" forty years ago. They later broke up due to differences in ideas - Qin Mugu advocated keeping folk customs alive among the people, while Bai Shuzhi insisted on "archiving and sealing" endangered culture. She searched for the tokens and inheritors scattered around one by one, and Bai Shuzhi always followed closely. Finally, at the Suihan Temple site in Zhongnan Mountain during the winter solstice, Bai Shuzhi revealed the truth: he wanted to collect twenty-four tokens to activate the formation, use himself as a sacrifice to reverse the years, and return to 1979 when the five of them were not separated. Under the dissuasion of Qin Mugu and Ye Zhiqiu, Bai Shuzhi gave up his obsession and personally handed the Winter Solstice Stone to Ye Zhiqiu. In the next three years, the twenty-four tokens were successively returned to their inheritors in various places. Qin Mugu and Bai Shuzhi co-authored "A Study of Folk Custom Keepsakes of the Twenty-Four Solar Terms", and Ye Zhiqiu led the team to complete the inheritance image chronicle. On the day of planting, Ani, the new successor of Silver Knife in Kongbai Village, planted the first seedling in the terraced field - the token returned from the altar to the soil.
