Every silk thread is at the cost of the life of a silkworm pupa, and only the silkworm of the ailanthus tree becomes a moth after it comes out of the cocoon, which is called the night peacock, the most beautiful moth in the world, only the silk drawn from this cocoon is not necessary to kill the pupa - "Night Peacock"
The heroine of the story is elsa, a French-Chinese student in Chengdu, China. By chance, when I visited the sericulture factory, I first met Ma Rong, who was playing a traditional musical instrument, shakuhachi, for the silkworm chrysalis whose life was about to fall.
The sound of shakuhachi is ethereal and far-reaching, Ma Rong's expression is calm and calm, thousands of years of historical precipitation and the vicissitudes of a man's years, in resonance become one, Elsa is so attracted.
Because Elsa was a flute player, she was interested in Ma Rong's shakuhachi, but because the shakuhachi was a traditional instrument of the Song Dynasty, elsa got a shakuhachi in the hands of a monk who knew how to play instruments, and got a record of the night peacock in the pipe cavity of the shakuhachi.
The silkworm of the Ailanthus tree, which does not need to be killed by pupae, is the sacred silk of buddhist rituals.
Elsa told Ma Rong about this record, and Ma Rong was very happy, because this was exactly what he had been looking for for decades and finally found what he was looking for.
Marlon begins to teach Elsa to blow eight feet, and Elsa accompanies Maron to find the Ailanthus tree, and soon their relationship grows closer.
One day, Elsa was seen by Marin, who was swimming in the swimming pool, and he followed Elsa to the dormitory of international students and worked as a cleaner in the international student apartment under the name of internship for Sichuan opera graduates.
Marin would always approach Elsa for various reasons, until tragedy struck when he discovered that he and his father, Marlon, were in love with the same girl.
In the middle of the night, seeing a gentle boy incarnate as a demon cruelly splitting the rabbit's corpse, Elsa could not withstand such pressure and chose to escape.
Elsa, who fled to France, wants to return to calm, but memories torment her repeatedly. At this time, Ma Rong's younger brother Ma Jianmin entered her life.
Ma Jianmin is a tattooist, and just when Elsa wants to tattoo a night peacock silkworm on her feet, Ma Rong introduces his younger brother.
Ma Jianmin was very professional, and soon the silkworm pattern of the night peacock reached the foot, which was very beautiful. Ma Jianmin wanted to tattoo the night peacock on Elsa's back because skin like Elsa's was so rare.
Ma Jianmin saw that Elsa was raising silkworms and sent him a large glass box to raise silkworms, and when he heard that this silkworm was a night peacock silkworm and only ate the leaves of the ailanthus tree, he ran all over many places to finally find the ailanthus tree.
Elsa promised Ma Jianmin a night peacock tattooed on her back, but after only half of the tattoo, Ma Jianmin was arrested for illegal immigration.
Ma Jianmin asked Elsa to help him find a lawyer, but to no avail, he was eventually expelled.
On the day of his expulsion, Ma Jianmin spent two hours packing his bags given by the police and tattooed Elsa with a peacock in the middle of the night. In the end, only the eyes were missing, because Ma Jianmin felt that the night peacock would fly away after tattooing the eyes, and only then would it accompany Elsa forever.
Elsa was so moved that she declared Ma Jianmin her husband on the spot, because the police had the right to drive away illegal immigrants, but not the husband of a French woman.
In this way, Elsa and Ma Jianmin lived together.
The story ends here, and the three beautiful encounters around the night peacock end with the eternal protection of the night peacock. Very romantic and touching, I hope that the last relationship can be guarded forever.
