About This Novel
A county-level theater troupe on the verge of disbanding went deep into an isolated village for a generous reward. Their mission is to rehearse an ancient local ritual that has been lost for a long time - night drama. The rules are strict: the show opens at midnight, and actors must wear special heavy masks to perform for a "special audience." However, when the gongs and drums sounded for the first time in the dead of midnight, changes quietly occurred. The mask seemed to have come to life and began to erode the wearer's sanity and memory. The empty stage was gradually filled with silent and cold "gazing". The villagers kept secrets and only repeated the ancient warning: "As soon as the gongs start, the play must be finished." The troupe members found themselves unable to leave. This scene is no longer a performance, but an unstoppable dark ritual in which humans and non-humans coexist. They no longer perform for the audience, but themselves become the most important sacrifices in the ceremony. When the final curtain is about to fall, who can tell whether it is an actor on stage or a ghost awakened by a mask and lingering for hundreds of years? The drama has begun and no one can escape.
