On the eve of a graduation performance, art student Zhao Muyun returned to the Mogao Caves, only to discover that the mural which once triggered her mysterious time-slip had vanished.
Flash back: In a desperate bid to protect both the mural and fellow artist Shen Huan, Chen Xi was critically injured. With her last ounce of strength, she urged Shen Huan to finish the painting.
Back in the present, the moment Shen Huan's final stroke was placed in the past, the long-lost mural miraculously reappeared in the modern cave – a testament to sacrifice and creative resilience.
This modern miracle invites us to reflect on art's power to bridge eras and preserve stories. For young global citizens, entrepreneurs, creatives and travelers alike, it's a reminder that safeguarding culture often demands courage across generations.
