Mountains and Rivers Enter the Conversation

"When the wood rings, the story comes true." Shen Baiyu, the storyteller of Xingmutang in Linshui County, was born in the market, is naughty and timid, and his greatest skill is bringing the dead back to life - literally. The master left a few words and left: Once you open a book, you must learn to collect it in this life. So he discovered that the stories he told casually would continue on their own. It is said that the cow is in the river bend, and the cow is in the river bend; the storyteller is rushing to take the exam, but the scholar's life is cut off in the middle of the road. The story occupies his memory, his name, and his life. This is called book debt. There are still a group of people in this world who use stories as swords: a storyteller defrauds half a street of money with one mouth; a play on the stage can make an entire village forget about themselves; the Ritual and Music Department buys stories and also bans them. A book can be a bridge or a knife. Shen Baiyu wants to be a person who can only tell stories, but in this world - a storyteller who can't collect books can't survive more than three chapters. He said: I don't use books as guns. I just want a room full of people to see what a real book looks like.
