The moment Lin Shuyue, a cultural relic restorer, touched the bronze box in the ancient tomb of the Western Zhou Dynasty, he was swallowed up by the star map and turned into quantum dust, and he was resurrected in the execution ground of another world. Holding the body of the guilty daughter, she glimpsed the horrifying truth from under the executioner's blade - the embroidery on the cuffs of the prison officer actually coincided with the star map of the bronze box. When Xiao Jingheng, the cold palace prince, rescued her, the birthmark on her neck was glowing with the same blue light as in the box.
This Dasheng dynasty is embedded with cracks in time and space: Einstein's manuscripts are hidden in the secret room of Qintian Prison, sulfa pills are traded in the black market, and her father's future coordinates written in binary code are buried in her skull. In order to unravel the mystery surrounding the annihilation of the family, she used modern criminal investigation methods to stir up the court, but she fell into a deeper vortex: Xuanyisi hunted the "variables" that traveled through time and space. Each time the bronze box unlocked a star lock, it obliterated a parallel civilization. The torrent of data flowing in Xiao Jingheng's pupils revealed that he was actually the clone container of a person who traveled a hundred years ago.

Lin Shuyue finally realized that this time travel was a screening experiment for higher civilization: on the day when the twenty-eight constellations of stars are reorganized, she will decide whether to lock time and space and become a historical specimen, or to trigger a dimensional revolution to reshape human civilization. And the most deadly trap is the string of doomsday instructions encrypted with her own DNA deep in the bronze box she repaired with her own hands...
