A tree, when constantly stretching its branches and leaves, shows a vibrant life; When the branches and leaves continue to wither, it shows the door of death that is about to die. What people are afraid of is not loneliness, but the depletion of the fountain of life after isolation, and the breath of life cannot be seen. Therefore, we read thousands of books, travel thousands of miles, and nourish a more vast forest and nurture more abundant vitality by constantly expanding the veins of life.

How can more possibilities be created? Zuo Cheng, who is engaged in humanistic photography, has traveled all over the world, recording the flow of different places and different people in the long river of time with his lens. Weave together time, place, people, and events on the Siwo map. As these materials continue to be gathered, a three-dimensional and vivid brief history of time emerges. In the journey of thousands of miles, the footprints are connected into pulses, and the pulsations radiate out pieces of puzzles. With the accumulation of the puzzle of life, a new map of life has been spliced unconsciously, and more oases of destiny have been opened up.

Invariance is relative, and change is absolute. Human fate is always changing, just like water flowing to a low place, Zuo Cheng tries to discover the eternal truth from the ever-changing through the changes and unchanged recorded changes, and to find the cause and effect of the change of human destiny.

Daliang Mountain, the ancient "Southern Silk Road" must pass through. Sima Qian of the Western Han Dynasty, Zhuge Liang of the Shu Han Dynasty, Kublai Khan, the ancestor of the Yuan dynasty, and Xu Xiake, a traveler, all traveled here, and the Chinese Workers' and Peasants' Red Army's Long March to the north was here to form a bloody alliance with the Yi chieftains. This is one of the many recording points of Zuocheng's humanistic photography, recording the changes that have occurred after the occlusion and dredging on the Siwo map.

Cliff Village, also known as Tiantai Village, coordinates 103.28264E, 28.06597N, in order to escape the war and bandits, this place was once isolated from the world, and the rattan ladder on the cliff is the only access to the outside world, which has now been replaced by a steel ladder.

As the eye of the soul, the changes of the eyes go straight to the soul, and in humanistic photography, Zuo Cheng is accustomed to recording different eye changes. Some of them have clear eyes, their hearts are as quiet as the surface of the lake, and they have been in the small world of the cliff village all their lives, the world is so big, and they have never had the idea of stepping out of the cliff village; Some eyes are curious, their hearts are as turbulent as waves, and they are eager to walk down the cliff village and paint the color of the unchanging pale life; Some have cloudy eyes...... Where will their respective fates go?

Wayajue Village, coordinates 103.14289E, 28.27679N. Reading and literacy is like polishing their eyes, which can make children see farther, look at the new world outside the mountain, walk out of Daliang Mountain, and then bring back the way out of the predicament, which is the expectation of the old people in Liangshan to the younger generation when they feel the changes of the times.

"Beyond the mountain is the mountain."

"Beyond the mountain is not a mountain."

……

Zuo Cheng used the camera to record the daily life of the girl Jinsha and the girl Gusimo. In his spare time, Zuo Cheng clicked on the map of Siwo and shared with them his travelogue on the other side of the mountain: on the west side of the mountain, the lavender flowers of Xinjiang Yili bloom from June to August, and you can see the fluctuations of the sea of purple flowers; On the south side of the mountain, Bangladesh celebrates the pilgrimage festival in January, and you can see the crowds of people...... When thousands of scenes came into their eyes, Zuo Cheng recorded the glint in their eyes.

When Zuo Cheng came here again, Jinsha and Gu Ximo had already gone to school in Leshan and Luzhou. This time they were not recorded in Daliang Mountain, but Zuo Cheng, who was slightly lost, showed a happy smile. Yes, the new world outside the mountain, there is a beating vein of the city, and it is only a matter of time before they connect the veins back there, and after injecting the fountain of life, it is only a matter of time before the breath of life is radiated here.

There's little we can do without affecting what we observe. As the recorder, Zuo Cheng has already triggered the observer effect and changed the fate here.
