The road leading to Song Country is hidden deep within the mountains. After the merchant caravan passes through a lush, verdant Ancient Wood Forest, it enters a cavernous path under the guidance of a lead horse familiar with the route. The cave's tunnels are interwoven with innumerable twists and turns, making it difficult for those unfamiliar to find the correct path.
The horse caravan travels along a winding slope. A light rain begins to fall, prompting the men to don raincoats and hats. A few of the women in the caravan retreat into the carriages for shelter, while many others open up oil paper umbrellas adorned with floral, avian, piscine, and insect patterns. Under the bamboo umbrella frames are brightly colored silk skirts, swaying with their steps and exuding an enchanting allure.
