Random Review Series 14: Journal of Dali Temple

January in the sky reflects the rise and fall of ancient and modern times. In addition to light, evil is also spreading quietly.

The diary of Dali Temple brings me a familiar texture, a feeling of massiness and lightness. China's thousand-year history endowed him with rich personality, wonderful plot and profound characters, which made the whole story vivid and intoxicating, and he experienced a series of exciting adventures with the protagonists.

Diary of Dali Temple is an exploration and adventure work rooted in the history of China. The story took place in the Tang Dynasty, with Dali Temple as the main stage. There are two protagonists, one is Li Bing, the king of Shuijun the day before yesterday, who worked for Shao Qing in Dali Temple, but somehow became a white cat (there is doubt here). His character is bold and resolute, with an arrogance belonging to the nobility. The other is his personal bookkeeper Chen Shi, a villager born at the bottom. He went to the city to look for his brother and lost his livelihood, so he came to Dali Temple to look for a job. His simple and honest personality, hard work and rich life experience have helped Shao Qing, the white cat.

I have seen the cartoons and animations of Diary of Dali Temple, and the animation probably talked about the content before entering the main line of the story, so here is mainly a cartoon, so let's talk about this work.

At the beginning, the comics mainly focus on daily jokes, mainly introducing the main characters of Dali Temple, such as Wang Qi, a big man in women's clothing and an adult in gossip. If you don't read it, you don't know what he said at all, and strive for "official eight" and local tyrant "crooked nut" Alibaba; Sun Bao, who is honest and reliable and rich in religious beliefs; Declining ghosts and gods, Dali Temple nuclear weapon Cui Ci, in addition to Dali Temple Qing luna caring subordinates, cute and cute, and the official department minister Xu who is always on the verge of death, and so on.

It can be said that this is a lovely group of people. It is very pleasant for a group of people to stay in Dali Temple and solve crimes, but the author obviously has greater ambitions, and under the smooth skin, he can't suppress dripping blood. His background took place in the early days of Wu Zetian's succession in the Tang Dynasty.

Those who are familiar with that period of history should understand that it was a dark period. In the early days of Wu Zetian's succession, she appointed cruel officials and ruled management officials with high pressure. On the one hand, this is to establish her own prestige; On the other hand, it is to break the intricate relationship between feudal gates and make power more concentrated. At that time, the cruel officials were led by Lai Junchen and Zhou Xing. They are good at crime in Luo Zhi. If officials are slightly different from their wishes, they will directly accuse the people of rebellion. Above the imperial court, everyone felt insecure for a while, and their attitude towards Lai Junchen and others was either ingratiating themselves or keeping their mouths shut. Under such circumstances, they dare to tell the truth. The ministers who fought against these cruel officials and even the emperor were real warriors. They really put their future and lives at risk and served the country wholeheartedly. Knowing this, you can understand how heavy and fearless Shao Qing, the white cat, said, "But doing good will lead to the future of Mo Wen".

Halfway through the story, with the assassination of Wu Zetian's birthday banquet as the node, Shao Qing began to investigate the case. In my opinion, the case itself is not complicated, and the author has no intention of doing so. It mainly shows the speculation of human nature, which is complicated. In the torrent of history, this change will become more and more obvious, which is a kind of helplessness and necessity. The torrent of history can promote the disgraceful transformation of human nature, but it can also make the already radiant mind more dazzling. Perhaps the protagonists are not perfect, they have some shortcomings and their own minds, but they have embarked on a difficult road of struggle, which is admirable in itself.

If we raise the latitude of this story, as the lyrics say, who secretly set it up and manipulated it, the answer is self-evident. The power struggle has always been the core element of history, and it is also a hidden line of this story. I believe it will be better displayed in the near future.

In short, this is an excellent animation, whether it is animation or comics. Good animation and RC convey that sincerity and love to the audience through their works. This animation belongs to China people, and it conveys the feelings and thoughts of China people, which is extremely rare. Exquisite lines and scenery, smooth and exciting plot, I believe that anyone who has seen him will have a wonderful experience, and at the same time lament the grandeur of China's traditional culture. Looking forward to the update of comics and the arrival of next season's animation.
