"The Monument of Red Dust: The Tribulation of Four Generations" is a love epic of four generations of reincarnation that spans thousands of years of time and space.
The story begins on the battlefield between gods and demons. In order to protect the common people, the heavenly soldier Xuan Ge was forced to pierce his beloved Qing Yue with a divine sword and seal her soul into the "Red Dust Monument". This tragic choice between "the most righteous" and the "beloved" has carved a curse and bondage that spans reincarnation.
In the second life, he was Lin Pan, the border guard general, and she was Gu Wan, a medical girl in troubled times. In the midst of a raging war, the two met and got to know each other at Shuofeng Pass, but they once again faced the torn apart between family and country justice and personal affection. In her third life, she was reincarnated in the Republic of China. She became Gu Wan, a scholar pursuing the truth of history. He was Jin Chen, a young man from a chamber of commerce with a complex identity. In the turbulent times, a mysterious fragment of a mortal monument draws them into a conspiracy that transcends time and space. The memories and emotions of their past lives gradually awaken in the fog.
Come to the final fourth life - a modern city where technology shines. Gu Wan and Jin Chen reunited because of an ancient inscription fragment. However, the sleeping Demon Lord "Yan" has also locked the coordinates of their souls, and the main monument of the world of mortals moved at the same time. This is the beginning of a final battle featuring modern business wars and technological mysteries, as well as a thousand-year love tribulation and a showdown between gods and demons.
The work uses the "Red Dust Monument" as a physical clue that runs through four generations, and deeply explores the eternal propositions of "love" and "righteousness". In the grand reincarnation narrative, the consistent persistence, sacrifice and choices of the protagonists in different eras are depicted, and finally the ultimate outbreak and solution of all causes and effects are ushered in on the modern stage.
