"Burning Heart [Golden Branch]" is an epic work that perfectly integrates Eastern classical aesthetics and cyberpunk. In this Dunhuang puzzle that spans thousands of years, the author depicts the ultimate game of love and redemption, destruction and rebirth with thrilling strokes.
When cultural relic restorer Shen Tingyun and Interpol police officer Jiang Yanzhi reunited in front of the gilded coffin, the gears of fate began to reverse. Those codes engraved on ice-cracked porcelain, those love poems flowing in binary Buddhist scriptures, and those mandalas blooming in the sky of Quantum Dunhuang all tell a poignant legend about forbidden love.
This is a breathtaking suspense masterpiece. Every cultural relic is a deadly puzzle, and every crack in the ice hides murderous intent. From the murals of Mogao Grottoes to the auction of Xuanyuan Pavilion, from the Dunhuang Underground Palace to Quantum Dunhuang, the author uses magnificent imagination to construct a dazzling cyber Buddhist kingdom.
Here, love is the most dangerous virus and the most powerful antibody; memory is the most deadly weapon and the most precious sacrifice. When the doomsday bell rings, when celadon rain pours down, and when ice cracks grow into Bodhi in the quantum vacuum, you will witness an ultimate redemption that spans time and space.
The story unfolds in Jiangcheng, which has an underground black market auction house for cultural relics and antique restoration studios scattered throughout the city.
There is a hidden cultural relic criminal network in the thousand-year-old ancient capital, and the two major forces are fighting overtly and covertly. On the surface, it is an antique transaction, but in fact it involves the game between cultural relics protection and transnational criminal groups.
