EP92 Kinmen | The Animal Counterattack

from Bao Island Storyteller: Journey to the West

Episode 92 takes us to Little Kinmen — Lieyu Island, just a short ferry from the main Kinmen island, only five or six kilometres from Xiamen, China. The island's history is heavy — underground bunkers, anti-tank obstacles still lining the beaches, artillery shell casings turned into the famous Kinmen kitchen knives — but its life force is undeniable. We eat continuation bread stuffed with a fried egg and taro ice cream made from local taro. And the story delivers the satisfying counterattack: four divine officials arrive in animal form, each one the natural predator of a rhinoceros spirit, and the thousand years of stolen moonlight is finally returned to the sky.Location: Lieyu Township, KinmenFood: Continuation Bread with Egg | Taro Ice Cream
