Liu Guohu, steward of the Jinta Temple Grottoes of the Management Committee of Horseshoe Temple in Zhangye City
Since 2003, when he became the steward of the grotto at Jinta Temple, Liu Guohu has lived alone in this deep mountain for ten years, guarding the grotto that cannot speak. Every day he spends about 2 hours and 6 kilometers walking to the Quinta Monastery on the cliff to check the caves one by one. If he found that there were cracks in the rock mass, water seepage from the landslide, and fresco peeling, he would report to the management committee of the Horseshoe Temple as soon as possible.
The Temple is on a cliff and requires climbing 240 nearly vertical steps to reach. At the beginning of the mountaineering, Liu Guohu felt very tired, but after holding on for a long time, he gradually adapted. In the past, there were very few research materials at the Golden Pagoda Temple, but by reading a large number of historical materials and asking experts and scholars for advice, he now knows the Golden Pagoda Temple very well, and he is full of feelings for every statue in the temple. He is an optimistic person, and he has also personally integrated his optimistic spirit into the work of cultural relics protection.
Fu Hong, Chairman of Wuwei Dancers Association of Gansu Province
After graduating from the Beijing Dance Academy, Fu Hong firmly believed in the goal of "Xiliang Music Dance" as the research object, and he has been working hard for the inheritance and development of this dance culture for many years. In addition to serving as the chairman of the Wuwei Dancers Association in Gansu Province, Fu Hong also has another layer of identity - the son-in-law of Yang Menyuan, the national inheritor of "Liangzhou Attacking Drums", Fu Hong holds the "baton" of Lao Yuezhang, not only teaching the drums to the local people, but also putting it on the elegant art stage.
Fu Hong especially likes Chinese dance, especially the ancient dance "Xi Liang Le Dance". But the dance can not find a complete score, so he looks for traces in the grottoes and murals. Fu Hong plans to concoct a national song and dance drama with unique Wuwei characteristics, "Liangzhou Ci", and bring the peasant drumming team and children's dance team to Beijing, Guangzhou and other places to compete. Fu Hong wants to protect not only traditional Chinese culture, but also his original intention.
He Wenxi, protector of the Great Wall in Xiamaguan Town, Tongxin County, Ningxia
He Wenxi, who served as the protector of the Great Wall in Xiamaguan Town, Tongxin County, Ningxia, was described by surrounding residents as a "strange old man", because guarding the Great Wall is an errand that often offends people, and the residents all think that he is "stupid", but he relies on this "stupid energy", relying on a motorcycle, two legs, a shovel, a mouth, for several years, rain or shine to guard the Great Wall. The Great Wall is like his "close partner", writing a "diary" to the Great Wall is his daily homework, and unconsciously, he has written a full 5 books.
Seeing workers painting the trees on the side of the Great Wall, He Wenxi wrote that "the trees on the side of the Great Wall are the partners of the Great Wall, and people have tied red belts and white pants for it, and dressed up beautifully." Like a loyal and stoic guard soldier under the flint of saiwai, he practiced this job as a lifelong mission, recording the changes of the Great Wall with pen and paper, and telling the moving story of him and the Great Wall with the "Great Wall Diary".
Sun Gang, on-site technical leader of the Horseshoe Temple Cultural Relics Protection Project
Sun Gang, who was born after the "90s", is a staff member of Gansu China Railway Construction Engineering Co., Ltd. and the on-site technical leader of the Horseshoe Temple cultural relics protection project. Countless stormy days and nights, he and his apprentice Wang Xingbiao and other team members were in the scaffolding height of more than 30 meters, renovating and reinforcing the eaves and outdoor floors of the caves of the Horseshoe Temple, and waterproofing the cracked wooden components, roofs and cliff junctions of each building.
Sun Gang is a person who does not like to gossip, he is used to talking to the wall and wood, but he feels that he is not talking about the wall and wood, but the ancient craftsmen. Because like the ancients, Sun Gang and they are risking their lives to do this meaningful thing. Faced with the current situation of the natural fall of the stone statues, he felt very distressed, so he carried out the restoration of cultural relics non-stop, and he wanted to protect the cultural relics that the ancients had passed on for many generations, little by little.
Cultural relics protection workers of the Kyzyl Grottoes in Baicheng County, Xinjiang
After more than a thousand years of erosion, coupled with the frenzied plundering of foreign expeditions in modern times, the Turtle Grottoes today are already scarred. These rare treasures are beautiful and fragile, which makes this group of cave keepers devote their efforts. Xu Yongming, Miao Lihui, Yang Jie, Wang Ji, Zhou Zhibo, Zhang Jinliang, Zhang Xiaojiang, Zhang Wenai, Xie Wenbo and other staff members have special feelings for the grottoes, because they have witnessed the collapse of the grottoes, they are extremely cautious and nervous about the protection and restoration of the grottoes, and they are determined to adhere to the cause of cultural relics protection that they like all their lives.
In the face of the torrent of time, even the grottoes on the Silk Road will peel off and grow old. But it is only time to grow old, and there are always some people, like the guardians of the Kyzyl Caves, who find a lifetime of love, choose to live a lifetime of protection, and integrate a short life into the long river of history, so that a moment becomes an eternity. Today, more and more young people are joining the conservation of the Kyzyl Caves.

For 30 years, he has traveled through bad weather on a motorcycle or camel, carrying a camera on his back again and again, guarding the rich cultural heritage of the desert Gobi with enthusiasm.
Timursana uses his weekend time to go into the desert to inspect the ruins, collect clues related to the cultural relics and sites, and he is familiar with the geographical location of each relic, and he can hand draw a patrol map of each route with a pen. He will often go to the herdsmen's homes to preach the importance of cultural relics to farmers and herdsmen over and over again, improve the ideological understanding of local farmers and herdsmen, and do his best for the protection of cultural relics.
Some people are touched by the history behind the cultural relics, and some people are moved by the stories of the guardians, but more and more young people have joined the team of guardians and become firm witnesses to the historical memory of the Silk Road. The spirit of protection of cultural relics and the spirit of inheritance of traditional culture are priceless, and this group of guardians through their way makes China's excellent traditional culture forever.
