Qin Yuan never thought that the half of a ginkgo leaf left behind by his grandfather before his death would drag him into a mystery that spans a thousand years.
That leaf with gold foil hidden in its veins points not only to the snow in Kunlun Ruins and the resentment in Yun Cave, but also to the fragments of the Jiuding Diagram scattered in all directions. It is said that collecting the nine pictures can open the door to reincarnation, resurrect the dead, and make flesh and blood grow from dead bones - this has been the paranoid obsession of Professor Chen's ancestors for three generations, and it is also the reason why Qin Yuan had to embark on a dangerous journey.
When Fatty's explosive pack exploded in Changbai Mountain, Qin Yuan saw Lin Wanqiu's blue shirt behind the bronze door; in the blood of the Zhongnan Mountains, the Zhenyue Mirror reflected not only the green face of the living corpse, but also the grievances between the Qin family, the Zhao family, and the Chen family that had been entangled for three generations. The oracle bone fragments in the hands of the children of the Hu family were shockingly hot, and the word "gu" on them was gradually eroding everyone's destiny with the insidiousness of the reincarnation technique.
From the sarcophagus of the King of Dian to the Liangzhu corpse in the water, from the mother poison in Fuhao's tomb to the mirror image of the Zhongnan ground, what they pursue are the fragments, they break the institutions, they fight the resentful souls, and they also explore the human ghosts hidden in the folds of history. The snake print mark of the long-term villain follows him everywhere. The fat man's smile, late autumn's tears, and the child's timidity have all become the sharpest knives in this mystery.
The nine pictures will eventually gather together, and the bronze door will open again. But what was standing behind the door at that time, was it an old friend who had been reborn from blood, or was he himself swallowed up by obsession?
In this hideout where life and death are at stake, no one who enters the game can escape intact.
