Destiny on Magic White Mountain

It is Spring 1988. The Chinese government is hungry for mineral resources in order to provide infrastructure to an awakening industrial global giant and for gold that will help fund it. Professor Qiu sets his postgraduates, Liang and Xinhua, the task of developing a small exploration team to discover new gold deposits in the mountainous Jilin Province, near the Korean border.

Their literature research leads them to a promising gold district with an ancient ‘Head of the Dragon’ gold mine. On arrival at the local village, they find that the mine-tunnel entrance on the hillside was sealed by an earthquake-induced landslide 500 years earlier and also buried half the village with many casualties. The superstitious villagers have never uncovered the landslide and reopened the mine because they hear strange sounds emanating from the hillside, which is why they have renamed it the Magic White Mountain.

By studying the location’s geology, Liang and Xinhua believe they could discover the Tail of the Dragon gold mine, but first they must explore and map the old one. They open the tunnel and enter the mine, never in their wildest dreams imagining what they will encounter and how their experiences will forever change their lives and fulfil their pre-ordained destinies.

Este primavara anului 1988. Guvernul chinez este infometat de resurse minerale pentru a oferi infrastructura unui gigant global industrial aflat in trezire si de aur care il va ajuta la finantarea acestuia.
