A thousand year old crane returns home

As a Chinese idiom, Pinyin is Qi ā NSU ì h è Gu ī, which means nostalgia for hometown. From the postscript of SouShen.

The origin of the idiom is from "SouShen Houji" by Tao Qian of Jin Dynasty, Volume 1: "Ding Lingwei, born in the east of Liao Dynasty, learned from lingxu mountain. Later, he returned to the Liao Dynasty and gathered the Huabiao pillars of the city gate. Sometimes there are teenagers who want to shoot with a bow. The crane is flying, hovering in the air and saying, "there are birds, there are birds. Ding Lingwei has gone to his home for thousands of years. Now he returns home. The city is as old as before, and the people are not. Why don't he learn from the immortal tombs." So he went up to heaven. "
