Origin of ginseng
Ginseng has been discovered since ancient times, with a history of more than 4,000 years. Ginseng originated from the tertiary period of paleontology. Due to the arrival of glaciers in the Quaternary period, the area of their distribution has been greatly reduced. Therefore, ginseng is an ancient relict plant and survived a variety. It is rare and valuable, and is recognized by the world scientific community as a special species. Efficacy of precious medicinal herbs.
The earliest origin of Chinese ginseng is only the Changbai Mountains. The appearance of ginseng in the Changbai Mountains of Jilin has been more than 1,700 years ago. The medicinal use of human ginseng artillery originated in the Three Kingdoms period, more than 1,600 years ago. There are many folk legends about ginseng in Changbai Mountain, Jilin.
The ginseng culture in Changbai Mountains of Jilin has a long history. Su Dongpo, a great writer in the Northern Song Dynasty, said in the poem "Second Rhyme Zhengfu Travels with Baishui Mountain": "The first one went to the Shao Shi of Yushun's style, and the second one went to the Sixth Patriarch to go to Nanhua. People's elixir is not my own." Su Dongpo called ginseng an elixir, which shows that in ancient times, literati and writers wrote ginseng into poems, and it was passed down. Su Dongpo also wrote in "Zanshen": "Shangdang is the ridge of the world, Liaodong is really at the bottom of the well, Yuanquan pours into the sea, and white dew sprinkles the sky." He praised Changbai Mountain ginseng as sweet dew, like sweet wine, let People are refreshing. There are many folk legends and stories about "stick and mallet" and "samsung girl descending to the world", and these legends have become an important part of the folk culture in the Changbai Mountains of Jilin Province.
Ginseng has a long history of medicinal use. According to research, it was recorded in the "Ji Jiu Zhang" by Shi You in the Han and Yuan Dynasty (33-48 years). The cultivation history of ginseng can be traced back to the late Western Jin Dynasty, more than 1600 years ago.
Ginseng is divided into wild ginseng and domestic ginseng. Wild ginseng, also known as wild ginseng, is mainly distributed in certain areas in eastern Asia, with a small amount in China and Russia, and has disappeared in Japan and North Korea. Home-grown ginseng is also called artificially cultivated ginseng. China is mainly distributed in Jilin Province, Liaoning Province and Heilongjiang Province, with Jilin Province being the largest. Its planting surface and output are more than 85% of the country and more than 70% of the world.

Finally watched Brotherhood of Blades 2. After watching both movies, my main thought is that Shen Lian is a dumbass. I spent 2 movies shouting at him to stop doing dumb shit. (Why are men so emotional???) Also, stop looking at women, you idiot. Definitely don't talk to them.
Why is Lei Jia Yin so funny to watch? That scene of him eating noodles had me dying.
Chang Chen had way more chemistry with Lei Jia Yin than with Yang Mi (which I am more than okay with because i love lei jia yin). I guess good acting speaks to good acting on a spiritual level. I don't think Yang Mi was (as) bad (as LSS). But, you know, different levels.
Shen Lian is never the smartest or the strongest in the room, but I have to give him credit for grit. It's what has kept him alive for 2 movies. He is the anti-Jiu Chen and watching him muck around cluelessly trying to figure shit out and not die is actually so entertaining.
Xin Zhi Lei is so beautiful. She looked super badass as the assassin. Too bad she didn't really get a story.
The real star of this movie is the black cat. It is the cutest and plays a crucial role at important moments. How did Shen Lian luck out to get an amazing cat like this?
Moral of the Story: You will be stabbed in the back (sometimes literally).
#brotherhood of blades#brotherhood of blades 2#chang chen#surprise cameo from changbai as the emperor#i look forward to part 3 in the series#want to watch shen lian mess up and fall face first into a major court conspiracy again#handsome doctor for ruyi was the monk and we never find out what happened to him

The Four Koreas
by anthro.atlas
With ethnic Koreans making up 99.99% of the population in North Korea and 95.63% in South Korea, these two countries are among the most homogeneous in the world. Outside these republics, however, there are two political entities where a substantial Korean population resides. These are Yanbian Korean Autonomous Prefecture and Changbai Korean Autonomous County, both in China’s Jilin Province. Majority of the Koreans residing in Yanbian, in contrast to those in Changbai and the Korean republics, are descended from migrants who left the Korean Peninsula in large numbers throughout the 19th and 20th centuries.

Daomu Biji Watcher’s Guide, May 2024
A few new entries have been popping up lately, and I’m always hopeful new fans will stumble into the pits and never leave so I thought I’d paste up a rough map.
(Obviously the best watching order, like the best reading order of Discworld or the Aubrey-Maturin books, is ‘whatever first comes to your hand’ but for the people who don’t like that…)
tl;dr:
Daomu Biji is a series about tomb raiding. Think Indiana Jones or Lara Croft but much, much longer. The protagonist Wu Xie is deeply in love with BFF1 Zhang Qiling, a hundred-year-old cryptid, and BFF2 Wang Pangzi, who was stolen in a raid from another book series. It’s comic, tragic, horrific, zany, prone to musings on life, love, desire, attachment, and has many, many piss jokes. (‘Journey to the West but modern’ is maybe the other comparison I’d make.)
Notes:
– This guide is not talking about “quality”. All of the adaptations have their own strengths and weaknesses and tone can vary a great deal, which is to say, if one of them doesn’t suit you it’s likely something else will.
– Wacky endings, and plot threads that disappear unfinished and get picked up a long time later, are as inherent to the franchise as the piss jokes.
– It’s common for the dramas to introduce characters and subplots a lot earlier than the books do. Sometimes we’ll see a character introduced ‘for the first time’ on multiple occasions and strangely familiar scenes. I’ll try to point out the biggest continuity clashes as I go.
The Soft Entry:
There are a few movies that are entertaining as standalones but will introduce various characters and background. I would recommend:
Escape from the Monstrous Snake + Mystery/Grave of the Abyss – two monster movies featuring Hei Xiazi, a supporting character. He’s a pragmatical mercenary who’s going blind in kind of a weird way, and goofy as hell when he isn’t tiptoeing over a vast abyss of existential dread. So many fun action scenes.
Time Raiders (2015) – so there are some textual clues that late in his career Wu Xie wrote this story as a memory-jogger for an amnesiac friend. The plot is a freewheeling wild ride which doesn’t directly match any book plot but introduces some major characters and how they relate to each other. It’s colourful and fast-moving. Enjoy, enjoy.
Conjuring Curse and Misty Creed are… theoretically set late in the series even if the actors look about twelve. Both work as stand-alone adventures, though Misty Creed is maybe a little deep in the lore. Again, colourful and fast-moving.
The Chronological Order
You could honestly start with most of these – they tend to come with a ‘what has gone before’ at the start or a newbie character that things get explained to. The only one I wouldn’t start with is Heavenly Palace in the Clouds, which is lovely but also the second half of a set and things won’t make sense if you haven’t seen Lost Tomb 2 first.
Lost Tomb 1 – a highly digestible 10-12 episode version of the Seven Star Lu Palace arc, ie. Baby’s First Adventure. Introduces A-Ning, Xie Yuchen, and Huo Xiuxiu early and a couple of og characters for Wu Xie to talk to instead of monologuing to himself. The restaurant scene at the end was raided from a later arc and you’ll see it again in Ultimate Note. A book character, Da Kui, was cut which is a small problem because how he died is a minor plot point discussed in Lost Tomb 2.
Lost Tomb 2 – covers Raging Sea, Hidden Sands (underwater tomb) and Qinling God-Tree (weird bronze tree in the mountains) plus a whole lotta side stories and original content exploring the world and foreshadowing later plots. Mooostly in continuity with Lost Tomb 1 (see Da Kui above) and made as a set with Heavenly Palace in the Clouds – they share resources and a lot of actors, and some threads begun here are finished in Heavenly Palace.
Heavenly Palace in the Clouds – covers the Mt Changbai arc, a journey up a mountain to find a very old, very grand tomb. This was made so close to Lost Tomb 2 that LT2 borrows shots from Heavenly Palace and not the other way around, which is fascinating because it pointedly contradicts the last five episodes of LT2. It also brings forward some plotlines originally from the Tamutuo and Zhang Family Old Pavilion arcs (San-shu’s past in the underwater tomb, and the Huo Family videotapes) dragging some characters on-screen and forcing them to talk about their feelings, which they would clearly rather die than do. Given those plot-tweaks and the early, deliberate continuity clash, I’m tempted to call this a Canon Parallel Universe. Got some interestingly chewy character dynamics and luverly, luverly set design.
Mystic Nine – This is a prequel about Zhang Qishan – Fo-ye – and his peers, but later dramas expect us to know who Fo-ye was so I’m sticking it here. Kinda… picaresque? Lots of action scenes and Republican-era flavour and various factions jostling for power – kinda feels like an old-school wuxia story, only set in the 1930s with all that glorious Republican-era styling. Has some unfortunate cut scenes – the details of how Fo-ye recovered at his family’s house don’t make a lot of sense in the aired version, and there are a couple of missing fights in the penultimate episode. Shrug. Still a lot of fun. Comes with four side movies about supporting characters.
Ultimate Note – Covers the Tamutuo arc (a trip through the jungle) and two-thirds of the Zhang Family Old Pavilion arc (investigating Zhang Qiling’s past is like kicking a hornet’s nest). Very, very flirty and has some zippy-zip action choreography. Politely ignores Lost Tomb 1–Heavenly Palace continuity (Xie Yuchen is, once more, introduced for the first time, now with a romantically coded friendship arc) and brings in a lot of cameos from Mystic Nine and Sand Sea, which it was filmed after. Kinda tiptoes around parts of the book plot, which I suspect would be hard for anyone to film, re: Fo-ye’s actions in the 1960s. Fair warning, this ends on a cliffhanger. This is also where the Xinyue Restaurant scene appears again – two cakes!
Tibetan Sea Flower – If Tibetan Sea Flower ever airs, it will go here.
Sand Sea – Based on the Sand Sea novel. After Tibetan Sea Flower, Wu Xie goes into a bit of a decline and makes that the world’s problem. We the audience, plus Li Cu and Liang Wan, EDIT: a lovely doctor, are pretty much dropped in media res into a number of ancient conspiracies and complicated plots coming to a head in the manner of a boil. It’s weird; it’s messy; it’s mad fun. Like Mystic Nine, has a lot of factions jostling for power and colourful jianghu characters. We will, once more, see the Xinyue Restaurant scene. Also has some side movies.
Time Raiders – The textual hints that suggest Wu Xie wrote this, suggest he wrote it around Sand Sea-era, when his life was a bit complicated. I’m putting it after Sand Sea because I believe it caps a conversation that, ah, doesn’t quite make it into the drama. But notionally this is where it should go. Ah…. at one point, someone tells a story about an ancient ruler, King Mu of Zhou, who sought immortality from the Queen of the West in Tamutuo. The longer book conversation suggests that a) King Mu of Zhou engineered a “trap” for someone like Wu Xie to fall into in the future, and b) that Iron Mask Scholar, a villain from Lost Tomb 1, was an alias that King Mu of Zhou used in the Warring States Era. Which makes some of Iron Mask Scholar’s appearances in Time Raiders… interesting.
Reunion: Sound of Providence – sometimes known as Reboot. Having peaked in badassery in Sand Sea, Wu Xie has to consider what his life is going to be now, and also, he would like to track down a missing family member. So this was tweaked to make it more accessible to new viewers (so some parts of the back-story are not mentioned or conflated for simplicity) and that mostly works but I did find watching this first and then picking up the earlier dramas a bit of a mindscrew. Zhu Yilong is, however, a powerful draw and the rest of the cast sparkles. Probably best to think of Season 1 as two short seasons jammed together, which is to say, once the Warehouse 11 arc starts there are a number of characters who won’t reappear until Season 2. It’s a fun arc even so. Season 2 ends with a badass action scene and then a big party, which I think is a great way to end a story.
Escape from the Monstrous Snake, Mystery/Grave of the Abyss, Conjuring Curse, Misty Creed – these are all theoretically set around or after Reboot-era, though they can certainly be watched as stand-alones.

Jade Mountain Academy students
#7 - Rainwing chapter
Ah yes, the Rainwings, a.k.a. "the ones where my friends will disown me if I get them wrong". I ended up making some changes here; particularly with Coconut, who is depicted as green in the graphic novels but described as lavender in the books. I tried to do something with elements from both. This had a bit of a knock-on effect on Siamang, because having two purples in the set seemed a bit lame for a group that's supposed to be really vibrant and colorful, so I went a bit off-script there. This is the result; I hope it is palatable.
Also, that makes 36. 36 dragons.

The Story of Minglan
Who?
Wasn't she supposed to take Rongjie fishing? This isn't Rongjie, is it?
***
I'm pretty sure these are all new characters.
I mean, yeah, I took a bit of a long break but I don't remember these two at all. They are relatives of the Emperor? Is this the brother whose wife died? But if so, who is the woman?
Anyway, let's get back to the kitchen fight! Imagine embarrassing yourself so badly in front of the Emperor's relatives, LMAO. I'm here with all the popcorn 🍿🍿
***
State Uncle Shen? 🤔
So, not the Imperial family?? I don't understand who she is married to, then. I must have grossly misunderstood something in her conversation with Minglan.
***
LMAO, so many dead birds with one stone 🤣🤣
***
LMAO, you should practise makeup as well ��🤣
***
LMAO, I don't think there is enough ability in the world 🤣🤣
Quit while you're ahead, girl.
***
OH MY GOD. ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
AGAIN??
***
Oh? 👀
This is new, lol! The ones before here were all, "Give me a path to live, let me fuck your husband!" and this one is the first to go, "Give me a path to live, I really don't want to fuck your husband!" 🤣🤣
***
Minglan is not a doormat but she chooses to be kind when she can.
They are lucky.
Also, I love the implication that this girl had already slept with Tingye's younger brother in the Marquis Manor and that they are now trying to stuff her into his bed too. Gross 🤮
If I were Tingye, I'd be too disgusted to even get it up.
***
I am obviously a much bigger fan of Minglan than Tingye, but I can't help but feel a bit bad for him 😅
Whenever he tries to get her to flirt or teases (hints, lbr 🤣🤣) that she could use her charms to get him to do anything for her, she gets all serious and says, "Never mind, then! I wouldn't want to indispose you!"
He really wants her to lean on him, he wants her to be free and genuine and loving and playful, but she just refuses to bite and keeps him at arm's length all the time. Yeah, she does all her wifely duties perfectly, but she gives him nothing more than that and he wants so much more.
***
Wait, is it Manniang?
Are they talking about Manniang??
Smh, I had forgotten all about her 😠 Things were going too well, of course she had to show up to stink up the place.
***
OMG, Minglan, noooooooo 😬
Poor guy, the way his face drops as he listens to her 😢 From the happy, smiley expression when she acknowledges that he is good to her, to... this.
***
She just keeps digging that hole deeper and deeper 😬
Poor Tingye, is he even aware of how little she thinks of him and how much she insulted him here? He must be, he is Changbai's best friend and he is intuitive enough to know what was going on in that hell house.
***
The amount of damage shitty, selfish, immature parents do to their children is insane.
If they were living in modern times, she would torch her entire relationship with this attitude and a therapist would earn a fortune dealing with her daddy and attachment issues. She has so much contempt towards men in general (understandably) and has definitely started her own marriage out on the wrong foot.
