2024 Ling College "Ancient and Modern Legends · Mountain and Sea Painting Dream" High Table Dinner

January 03, 2025 College Grand Events

 

At the ancient origin of the Chinese civilization, there is a remarkable book flowing quietly through the long river of time. It is "The Classic of Mountains and Seas".

 

In the fantastical world of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", Mountains tower, piercing the clouds,

whose peaks reach for the starry shrouds.

Rivers stretching, far and wide,

where mystical beings hidden in the deeper side.

 

Kuafu, with unyielding might, chased the blazing sun.

Though his mortal form fell, his spirit lived on.

Jingwei, with a fragile beak, bore tiny stones to fill the vast sea.

She defied the boundless ocean using her paltry frame.

These ancient tales of yore on the land of Huaxia have passed down generations after generations in an unbroken spree...

 

Let's step into the wonder world of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" and embark on this journey of "Legends Through the Ages · Painting Dreams in Mountains and Seas" together!

Dinner Highlights

At this High Table Dinner,

seven intriguing interactive booths will be set up.

Come and explore!

 

In ancient times, the Azure Dragon, White Tiger,

Vermilion Bird, and Black Tortoise guarded the four directions,

protecting the balance of the world.

At the same time, Bai Ze commanded the four beasts

to bless the human realm.

 

Later, as the spiritual energy waned, Bai Ze disappeared,

while fragments of its power fell into

"The Classic of Mountains and Seas".

The weakened power of the four beasts led to the imbalance of the world and peril in the human realm.

 

To restore peace, fragments of "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" must be found to summon the Bai Ze.

Oh, you brave and wise Lingers,

hasten to the various booths to win the fragments

and summon the Bai Ze!

 

I. Classic of the Eastern Mountains

[Azure Dragon · Element of Wood]

Roll the dice to determine the quantity of spices to be selected.

Then fill the brocade pouch and offer it to the Azure Dragon

to obtain the fragment.

 

II. Classic of the Southern Mountains

[Vermilion Bird & Nine-tailed Fox · Element of Fire]

Imitate the shadow of the mysterious creature.

Upon success, one can acquire a puzzle and a gift,

along with the opportunity to make cotton candy.

 

III. Classic of the Northern Mountains

[Black Tortoise · Element of Water ]

In pairs, engage in a one-minute time-limited

fishing competition.

The winner shall receive sugar-coated haws made by

turning water into ice.

 

IV. Classic of the Western Mountains

[White Tiger · Element of Metal]

Toss a metal coin with the White Tiger.

Guess the right side or return an empty cup to obtain a puzzle fragment and also get a cup of wine.

 

V. Classic of the Central Mountains

[Element of Earth]

In pairs, collaborate in the "You Draw, I Guess" game.

The group that answers the most questions correctly

within two minutes wins.

Participants will receive a bookmark,

 and those who win two consecutive rounds

will be awarded an excellence prize.

 

VI. Classic of the Seas 1

In groups of four, turn over the bottles to move the cups.

The corresponding players will drink the beverage as a penalty, and the player opposite the losing player will obtain a puzzle.

 

VII. Classic of the Seas 2

In groups of four, players will memorize, retell, choose, imitate, and find the pictures of divine beasts in turns.

 If successful, they can obtain a puzzle.

 

 

While the aftertaste of the sumptuous feast at the dinner

has not yet faded away,

a passionate [Afterparty] dance will be grandly held,

 becoming another dazzling highlight of the dinner.

 

 Here, there is no need to care about the eyes of others.

One only needs to immerse in the ocean of music,

dance hand in hand with your partner,

or just simply enjoy this dance moment alone.

 

Longing eagerly for your arrival here,

to relish feasts and the scene so dear.

Witnessing revelries together far and wide,

in the merriment, side by side!
