Badai, a profession full of mystery in the Miao region of Xiangxi, is an important part of Miao culture. They are both shamans, healers, and farmers, and play an irreplaceable role in praying for blessings, healing, and farming.

In this world, we can not only feel the tenacity and wisdom of the Miao people, but also their deep feelings for traditional culture.
In addition to the in-depth excavation of the Badai culture, the novel also shows the great changes in the history and reality of the Miao region in Xiangxi. Once, the Badai people here had a stunt, but they had no way to serve the country, so they had to leave their hometown and live incognito. However, with the development of the times, they gradually got out of the predicament and inherited and carried forward the Badai culture with heart and affection. The younger generation walked out of the mountains with longing and returned to the mountains with dreams, and they used their own actions to interpret their love for their hometown and adherence to traditional culture.
