"Sending a substitute can save your life, but it may also make you lose yourself."
Twenty-year-old Lin Xiaoyu has been frail and sickly since she was a child. Her mother believed the words of the goddess and gave her a "substitute" to ward off disasters. Sure enough, she was no longer sick, but she became dull and taciturn, as if she was missing a soul. She can live a normal life, but her mind goes blank during exams and her grades are always unsatisfactory.
Until she was twenty years old, her world began to collapse——
Late at night, when you close your eyes, a ferocious face approaches in the darkness;
In the dream, countless black shadows roared and chased her, as if asking for something...
The goddess said that this was her "fate" and it was time to take action. But my mother firmly opposed it and found a more powerful master to force another substitute.
This time, however, things got completely out of control.
After the substitute was sent away, Lin Xiaoyu's nightmare not only did not stop, but intensified. She began to see things that others could not see, and there were always whispers in her ears. At certain moments, she even found that she could predict the fate of strangers...
What's even more frightening is that the "substitute" seems to be back.
"You thought the things you sent away were disasters, but are the things you sent away really the things that should be gone?"
——When ancient witchcraft intersects with modern fears, when mother's love becomes a bondage, when the price of "saving life" is gradually losing oneself... Lin Xiaoyu must make a choice:
Are you continuing to escape and living in a false sense of stability?
