When Si Yuan touched the ancient jade full of cracks during his archaeological internship, he never thought that he was opening a door to the abyss of the undead.
In the world after the time travel, there is no sunlight, only gray mist lingering around every inch of the land like the breath of rotting corpses. The undead wandered around, whispering like needles piercing the membranes, and he became their hunting target.
When he first entered this place, he was just a fugitive chased by fear. The black robe was shabby and shabby, and the compass pointer on his waist was shaking wildly, as if even the direction was mocking his hesitation. But he didn't stop - not because he was brave, but because he knew that the price of stopping would be death. In this lifeless land, science has become a kind of faith, and reason is his only weapon.
The turning point happened when Yueyao appeared. Like a ray of light, she tore open a corner of the darkness and used her spiritual power to build a temporary barrier for him. The two formed an alliance and relied on each other to survive the hunting of the undead. They broke into forgotten tombs and abandoned altars side by side, looking for a way back home, but gradually discovered that the world was far more complicated than they imagined. Bai Ze, the mysterious guardian, not only prevents them from escaping, but also provides guidance in times of crisis. It's hard to tell whether his words are true or false, but they always carry some profound meaning.
Every victory comes with a price. Once they entered a forbidden area by mistake, they awakened the sleeping undead army; after a confrontation, Yueyao was seriously injured, and Si Yuan had to face a cruel fact: to leave this world, you may need to sacrifice something more important.
When reason and faith collide, when survival and sacrifice are intertwined, what should humans do?
