Origin Story

话说唐朝时期，一位名叫李白的诗人，因不满朝堂的黑暗与腐败，毅然决然地离开了长安。他来到了一处风景秀丽的山谷，偶然间遇到了一群正在举行祭祀仪式的村民。仪式上，一位老者正在慷慨陈词，痛斥贪官污吏的罪行，以及他们对百姓造成的苦难。李白被老者的正义感和激情所打动，也上前慷慨陈词，他用优美的诗句，声情并茂地描述了百姓的疾苦，以及对美好生活的向往。他的话语，如同一道闪电，照亮了山谷，也照亮了村民们的心灵。村民们深受感动，纷纷表示要与李白一起，为建立一个公平正义的社会而努力奋斗。此后，李白便隐居在这座山谷里，创作了许多脍炙人口的诗篇，激励着后人继续为正义而斗争。

In ancient China, during the Tang Dynasty, there was a famous poet named Li Bai. He was indignant at the corruption and injustice at the court and left the capital city of Chang'an. By chance, he encountered a group of villagers who were holding a festival in an idyllic valley. During the festival, an elder was giving a passionate speech, denouncing the crimes and suffering caused by corrupt officials. Li Bai was deeply moved by the elder's integrity and passion and made a powerful speech himself, describing the hardships of the people and their longing for a better life using evocative poems. His words, like a flash of lightning, illuminated the valley and the hearts of the villagers. Deeply moved, the villagers vowed to work with Li Bai to create a fairer society. Li Bai later lived in seclusion in this valley and wrote many famous poems that continued to inspire people to fight for justice.
