Tianbao Cave, a scenic spot within the territory of Luzhou City, Sichuan Province, is located on the cliffs of Centipede Rock in Erlang Town. The powerful and vigorous characters for 'Tianbao Cave' are carved on the cliff at the entrance. Once inside the cave, the fragrance of wine is pervasive, and the mellow aroma is overwhelming. Rows of large sealed wine jars extend neatly into the cave. Under the dim light, 5 years, 10 years, 20 years... The old wine jars and the cave walls are covered with a thick layer of wine moss. The wine jars stand quietly there, like the Terracotta Warriors unearthed, hence the nickname 'China's Terracotta Warriors of Wine Jars'. 'Guests come to the treasure cave and the wind carries them home drunk; raise a toast, and even when people leave, the road retains the fragrance.' Tianbao Cave was created for the storage and aging of Langjiu. What kind of mystery does it contain?
