The beekeeper Shé Zuŏ Bīn performs a traditional spring ritual on one of the rocks. He allows the queen bees to settle on his body, and they in turn summon the worker bees. By the end, Shé Zuŏ Bīn’s entire body is covered from head to toe in bees. He is as if in a trance and stands completely still. The buzzing of the bees dominates everything. He trusts his bees completely; for a moment, they lose all that is dangerous and frightening. They are a protective shield.
