In the ancient East, there were countless poems and songs, among which couplets, as a unique literary form, were deeply loved by literati and writers. Among the many couplets, there is a pair of the first couplet through the ages, and its upper couplet is: "The sound of the horse's hooves is far away", and no one has been able to make a perfect lower couplet so far. Behind this couplet, there is an exciting story hidden waiting to be discovered.
Legend has it that a long time ago, there was a talented man named Liu Yifeng, who was brilliant and personable, and was a leader in the literary world at that time. Liu Yifeng traveled all over the world in search of inspiration, and one day came to an ancient town. This ancient town is quaint and elegant, and the stone pavement reverberates with the footsteps of history. Here, Liu Yifeng met a beautiful woman, her name was Su Wan'er, the owner of a bookstore in the ancient town.
Su Wan'er is not only outstanding in appearance, but also full of wealth, and her talent is on par with Liu Yifeng. The two hit it off at first sight and quickly fell in love. However, the good times are always short-lived, and Liu Yifeng had to leave the ancient town due to family affairs. On the day of separation, Liu Yifeng promised Su Wan'er that he would come back to marry her.
Time flies, and it has been several months since Liu Yifeng left. Su Wan'er waited for her lover's return day after day in the ancient town, but he was never seen. The residents of the ancient town all advised Su Wan'er to give up waiting, thinking that Liu Yifeng would not come back. But Su Wan'er firmly believes that Liu Yifeng will definitely fulfill his promise.
In order to prove her belief, Su Wan'er hung an upper couplet at the door of the study house: "The sound of horses' hooves is far away", she believes that as long as someone can match the perfect lower couplet, it is an omen of Liu Yifeng's return. After the news came out, it attracted countless talented people to challenge, but no one was able to succeed.
Just when Su Wan'er was about to lose confidence, a mysterious poet appeared in front of her. The poet, who claimed to be a friend of Liu Yifeng, told Su Wan'er that Liu Yifeng had an accident on the way home and was stranded in a distant place. He came this time to find someone who could untie the couplet in order to rescue Liu Yifeng.
After Su Wan'er heard about this, she decided to look for Xialian in person. She bids farewell to the book house and embarks on an unknown journey. During her journey, she encountered various challenges and difficulties, but she overcame them one by one with her strong will and brilliant intelligence.
Finally, after going through a lot of hardships, Su Wan'er found the next couplet: "The spring breeze blows and is born". She immediately returned to the ancient town and hung the couplet at the door of the bookstore. Soon after, Liu Yifeng did return to the ancient town, and he was grateful and decided to fulfill his promise to spend the rest of his life with Su Wan'er.
However, the story doesn't end there. The lower link of the first couplet through the ages actually caused greater suspense. It turns out that the couplet is the key to unlocking an ancient treasure, and the location of the treasure is hidden in the ancient town. Liu Yifeng and Su Wan'er decided to search for this treasure together, and their adventure had just begun.
