There Is a Long Wind Outside the Mountain

Five men, six horses, and six road guides. A caravan returning from the west made fifteen-year-old Lu Zhao feel that something was wrong for the first time. The next day, old man Xie, who had taught him the sword for two years, left the city alone, saying he would be back in two or three days. Thirteen days later, he didn't come back. What's even more frightening is that everyone began to forget about him. The cake seller forgot his face, the paper shop owner forgot that he had played chess with him, and Lu Zhao and his childhood sweetheart Xu Qinghe, who had seen him for days, gradually couldn't tell what the old man looked like. So they took pen and paper and wrote down this person again: He is lame in his right leg, loves to drink, has a bad temper, and owes twelve cents. From then on, Lu Zhao found that he always seemed to be able to see things that others ignored - the old wounds of monsters, broken footprints, and "marks" that were still left after being erased. In order to find Old Man Xie, he walked out of Linxi City for the first time. From seducing young men to sword-wielding monks. From monsters in the mountains to relics that have disappeared for many years. In the end, all traces pointed to a place that existed in ancient books but never appeared on maps. Xizhou. But if one day, even the whole world is left with only a dream about to wake up—— Are those who have loved really been here?
