A thousand-year nightmare under the quicksand, a death adventure where fiction and reality intertwine. Hu Bayi was entrusted by a mysterious financial owner to go deep into the desert of the Western Regions to search for the legendary Loulan tyrant's tomb. However, the real horror came quietly from the moment everyone fell into the abyss of quicksand - they never really woke up.
On the dome of the tyrant's mausoleum, the statue of the snake god watches with a ferocious smile; the bronze bells ring to themselves, dragging everyone into an inescapable illusion. The mechanism of the ancient tomb, the curse of the tomb keeper, the resurrection of the corpse... Everything is so real, but there is also something strange about it. Hu Bayi gradually discovered that the eyes of his teammates began to become unfamiliar, and at some point, the same bronze runes as the Tyrant appeared on his palm.
Who is controlling this nightmare?
Is it a bell? Is it an astrology? Or... Themselves?
When Hu Bayi finally tore through the illusion, the real mausoleum revealed its true appearance - it was simply not something that humans could build.
Don't believe what you see.
And don't trust…your waking world.
