About This Novel
In the 1920s, Fu Sinian's secret letter pushed Oracle expert Yang Mingtiao into the fog of Anyang. There are undercurrents surging in Anyang City: Lan Baoguang, a master of counterfeit carving, cuts his sapphire knife across an oracle bone, Canadian priest Ming Yishi rides a white horse on the banks of the Huan River, Japanese Aoki's military boots step into the secret back garden, and Yang Mingtiao's ex-girlfriend Mei Bingzhi swings her sleeves on the stage and sings ancient operas, and the elders of the leprosy village on the outskirts of the city People used their fingernails to carve heavenly books on the walls... After decades and many adventures, at the moment when the moonlight penetrated the dome of the underground palace, Yang Mingtiao finally understood that the city itself was the biggest oracle bone - all living beings were the cracks carved by the ancients, and the real treasure house was hidden deep underground where the men in black were guarding.
