This book is Qiu Huadong's latest full-length historical novel. It uses poetic language and gorgeous imagination to return to the remote western world and rediscover the historical legends of Loulan, Dunhuang, Niya, Qiuci and other places. The whole book is divided into six chapters: the Shuangqi of Qiuci, the Three Books of Gaochang, the Four Brocades of Niya, the Five Layers of Loulan, the Six Parts of Khotan, and the Seven Caves of Dunhuang, which narrate the stories of the ruins of six ancient cities. In terms of expression, it adopts the structure of pomegranate seeds, orange segments or candied haws. All the ancient city stories in the novel have been extended to the present day. The protagonist of the novel is in the ruins and has a profound connection with these places. "All history is contemporary history." Those fragile and rustling voices gave way to vivid historical figures, expressing their vigorous initial strong voice in the prosperous Han and Tang dynasties.
