3 B.C., during the period of Emperor of the Han Dynasty, there was a great drought that affected everywhere. There were mysterious incidents occurring in the area east of Hangu Pass, peasants were in great panic, they abandoned their fields and hoes, armed with straw stalks, they claimed it was the plan of the queen mother of the west and that the stalks must be delivered to the palace. There were also some who were running in the plains and roads bare-footed, passing the stalks to each other, night and day. Officials around the country arrested and beat those who were confused by the weird phenomenon with the intent of stopping them, however there was no use. Eventually, the stalks, after going through 26 counties and countries, were presented in front of the Emperor.

The people sang and danced in alleys and fields, they worshipped the queen mother of the west, until autumn when they finally awoke from their deep collective dreams.
