This is the story of an ordinary man climbing out of the abyss. Fengyunduan graduated from the countryside, worked in the provincial capital, and settled down in the county town, with a decent job and a stable family. But he was unwilling to be mediocre. He added leverage in the stock market, owed huge debts, suffered from insomnia, and fell into the market late at night. Without telling his wife Xiaohong, he borrowed money again and again to cover his positions and emptied his family bit by bit. In the most difficult time, he drove west to find a cave he had walked through more than 20 years ago, and to find a hand that had held him in the dark. There was light in the cave and he crawled out. But what really pulled him out of the abyss was the night of the third day of the Lunar New Year. His wife sat in front of him, tears fell silently, and said, "I'm not afraid that you will owe money, I'm afraid that you will jump in alone and sink alone." Fengyunduan finally said it out - he took out all the words that had been buried for more than 20 years, such as fear of poverty, unwillingness, and traveling alone, and showed them to her. After hearing this, she took out a card from the drawer: "Two hundred thousand, pay back the overdue interest first. For the rest, let's find a way together." She caught him. From then on, he went to the countryside to plant salvia, chrysanthemums, and golden cicadas, and fell from the clouds back to the earth step by step. Chapter 60 describes the path he took astray, and also the path he took back. From the 1990s to today, thirty years have passed by in a flash. Green trains have become high-speed trains, BP machines have become smartphones, dirt roads have become asphalt roads, and kerosene lamps have become photovoltaic panels. But some things haven't changed - people's struggle, people's persistence, people's desire for light.
