Tomb Raiding: Sacrificial Dust

He slept for a century. When he woke, the little wolf cub he had raised had become someone else’s guardian deity.

Zhang Mochen, the Zhang family’s last priest, fell asleep in the late Qing dynasty and woke up in the modern era. The first thing he did was search for Zhang Qiling, the boy he had raised with his own hands before they were forced apart.

Who could have guessed that his little Guanha would not only have forgotten him, but had also become the devoted guardian of another reckless young man, Wu Xie?

Holding the ever-burning bronze lamp, Zhang Mochen gazed at the icy, indifferent Zhang Qiling before him. Emotions surged in his golden eyes.

The child who used to curl up in his arms after nightmares, whom he soothed to sleep with a mind-calming bell;

The “mixed-blood” orphan he had saved from his family’s pursuit by pouring everything into the secret arts of the priestly line;

The little Guanha whose memories of him he had personally erased as he fell asleep, simply so the boy could survive…

Now looked at him as if he were a stranger.

“I’m Zhang Mochen, your priest.”

“Prove it.” Zhang Qiling’s eyes were cold, his memory gone.

The bronze bell rang. Fragments of memory stabbed at Zhang Qiling’s mind, and instinctively, he shielded Wu Xie beside him.

Zhang Mochen smiled. Good. He would see whether this upstart Third Master had better tricks, or whether he, the “ex,” knew better how to bring his lost little Guanha back to himself, bit by bit.

“The clan leader guards secrets; the priest communes with heaven and earth. Guanha, the first lesson I taught you was how to ‘break the rules.’”
