Synopsis

Ah-Cheng, a researcher at the National Taiwan Museum, stood alone in the circular theater on the third floor, reluctantly looking at the thirteen-meter-wide projection of "Kangxi Taiwan Map" on the projection screen, and immersed himself in the world of the Map. Just as Ah-Cheng was concentrating on studying the details of the Map, he accidentally fell into the Map again!!

In addition to meeting his old friend Yu Yonghe, the author of Taiwan's travelogue literature "Pihai Jiyou (Small Sea Travel Diaries)", in order to explore the mystery of the "Taipei Great Lake" during the Kangxi period, Ah-Cheng followed Yu Yonghe's ox cart team to collect sulfur, and the group went to Northern Taiwan.
