Rooted deeply in Chinese traditional culture, Xianxia literature not only unveils fantastical realms and enthralling tales of martial heroes and immortal beings but also encapsulates a unique understanding of morality, emotions, and life's essence. In an era of globalization, Xianxia literature emerges as a vital emissary of Chinese culture to the world stage. Xianxia, a genre often characterized by its fusion of mythology, martial arts, and elements of Taoist philosophy, has a rich history dating back centuries. Its origins can be traced to ancient Chinese legends and folklore, where mystical beings and celestial realms coexist alongside mortal realms. These tales, passed down through generations, served not only as entertainment but also as moral instruction, imparting wisdom and guiding principles to listeners.

This theme resonates deeply with Chinese audiences, reflecting cultural values of perseverance, self-improvement, and the pursuit of spiritual enlightenment. Furthermore, Xianxia literature embodies a profound reverence for nature and the cosmos,…

In the learning exploration session, I used the headgear from the fairy tale play "Little Rabbit Obedient" as an example to help students recognize headgear, understand its role in fairy tales, and realize that it is a direct representation of character images in fairy tales. I guided students to pay attention to the images of the little white rabbit and the big gray wolf, observing and understanding their image characteristics, laying a foundation for their subsequent creations. At the same time, I used sample headgear to inspire students to summarize the method of making headgear and discover the steps involved. I believe this approach is very good as it can generate interest among students in creating headgear. Talking about this, my daughter was already sobbing uncontrollably. I was instantly moved to tears. I held her tightly in my arms, kissed away her tears and forehead, and gently comforted her, saying, "Honey, you're a girl and don't eat grass. It's the little white rabbit that eats grass, and it's also very obedient later; the rabbit mother's leg naturally healed. " Only then did my daughter slowly stop crying, resuming her lying position with her head on my arm. After thinking for…

And the outside world's opinion about hanfu is really too single, each hanfu model as a "show" on stage for a minute or even a dozen seconds, may have to do a full month or two months of preparation off stage.

We know that only by truly integrating our traditional culture into modern life is there a true revival of culture.
