The Secret Records of the Mountain Movers

During Beijing's damp plum-rain season, Zhang Tian, a history graduate obsessed with antiques, happens upon a mysterious old man in Panjiayuan. Along with an ancient bronze mirror, he unexpectedly acquires a book called The Secret Records of the Mountain Shifters, its pages steeped in an eerie aura. Tucked between the yellowed sheets is half a jade pendant engraved with the Big Dipper. Phrases hidden in the notes, such as “Mountain Shifters specialize in breaking mechanisms,” seem to open a door to a mysterious world. When he turns to the chapter on “Worm Valley in Southern Yunnan,” his silver hairpin suddenly grows hot, burning the words “Dust-Bead” into his skin. A storm erupts outside, and the candle flame eerily leans northwest. The hand-drawn tomb maps in the ancient book awaken the protagonist's desire for adventure. A tomb-exploring journey across history and reality is about to begin. Will Zhang Tian find a world-shaking secret, or a deadly trap?
