Wanderer Mokke: The Mystery of Peach Blossom Spring

"The Little Mokke Knights-errant" series is a grand fantasy illustrated literary work created by the internationally renowned painter and writer Xiong Liang. With its unique ink wash style and magnificent imagination, it presents a fantastical world of oriental beauty, a mysterious forest home – the Peach Blossom Spring. Mokke are elves who live in the trees of the Peach Blossom Spring, maintaining the order of the forest and its peace. They wear hooded pullovers woven from plant fibers, with a wooden stem decoration on top of their hoods, and as they age, their foreheads grow taller.
This book is based on traditional Chinese culture and Eastern philosophy, with character inspiration drawn from "The Peach Blossom Spring," "Taiping Guangji," "Zhuangzi," "Nine Songs," and other works. All the tribes in the forest can find their prototypes in classical Chinese legends, both powerful and endearing. The illustrations emphasize line work and ink tonality, while the text is innocent, with a unique sense of humor and poetic quality. The stories are self-contained, with numerous oversized scenic paintings creating a cinematic feel, and a wealth of rich details hidden within the illustrations.
"The Little Mokke Knights-errant: The Lost Trail of Peach Blossom Spring" tells the story of how a little Mokke encounters a human girl, Xiaoyu, who accidentally strays into the Peach Blossom Spring.
