About This Novel
Archaeologists have recently discovered many ancient documents on the East Asian continent. The place used to be sparsely populated, with venomous snakes and ferocious beasts running rampant; now it is still a vast, desolate and filthy land, with mountains of bones piled up, and old burrows of poisonous insects all over the ground. Unfortunately, they are also filled with silt. This is a relic after the flood. It is really not easy to study the ancient society here by examining the fossils underground and the ruins above ground. As for those documents - of course they were all tattered paper, with water marks, and messy, muddy and blood-stained "traces of birds and beasts". It was really difficult to see clearly. In addition, the words written on them looked like so-called hieroglyphs like ancient Egyptian characters. --It is very much like those scholars who studied hard when Napoleon first conquered Egypt. Sure enough, among these documents, several East Asian linguists examined a ragged piece of writing.
