Can an innocent youth travel the world? A young man in a white robe walked on, a pale green sword on his back. The world was rotten, rites and music had collapsed, and the Way of Heaven lay shattered. The sages were nowhere to be seen. The Hundred Schools of Thought still remained, but they were all opportunists and flatterers. On this journey, how could the people find a way to live? How could the tides of destiny be changed? The youth had no answers. He could only recall the old man's words: "First, get past the hurdle in your own heart. Question your heart and overcome its trial." The youth set out to change the tide of destiny and win over the hearts of the people.
The old man said, "When your mission is complete, come home. Take water from the Canglang River, wash your sword, and put it away."
