The first scene: Light of Dawen The ancestors of Dawenkou offered sacrifices to the heavens and prayed for blessings with a pottery urn with sun-volcano patterns. During the tribal dance, the pottery urn was accidentally broken. Little Stone had a conversation with an old lady across time and space, and began his reincarnation mission of finding the pottery urn. Scene 2: Emperor Qin's Fengshan After Qin Shihuang conquered the six kingdoms, he ascended Mount Tai to offer sacrifices to heaven and earth. A small stone was reincarnated as a Qin general to witness the casting of the golden man. Amid the bloody river, ice waves and lava effects, the emperor's ambition and the philosophy of "peace in Mount Tai" collided violently. Scene 3: Sun and Moon Shine Together The Persian youth Xiao Shitou accompanied Emperor Gaozong of Tang and Empress Wu Zetian to the Mount Tai for the Fengshan ceremony, and the moon set on the stage, breaking the shackles of etiquette; the Shandong Bangzi sang "The Sun and the Moon Shine Together", showing the fusion of a female emperor and exotic civilizations. Scene 4: The Poet Looking at the Mountains Du Fu climbed Mount Tai and wrote "Viewing the Mountain" after failing the imperial examination. The backs of the porters and their thatched cottages reflected their worries for their country and their families; the modern Olympic torch climbed to the top of the mountain, and the temple fair parade of all people brought together the prayers of ancient and modern times into a harmonious resonance of "If Mount Tai is safe, the world will be safe." Epilogue: Prayers for the people To the sound of the joyful theme song, the audience, along with hundreds of cast and crew members, put their hands together and prayed devoutly. The sacred flame and the torch of inheritance shone brightly, blending the past and the present, completing the eternal sublimation from a ritual vessel for offering sacrifices to heaven to a totem of the national spirit.
