On a stormy night, deliveryman Shen Wansan shatters a Warring States-era jade disc in Panjiayuan. The viewers in his livestream watch as golden oracle-bone script appears on the broken pieces. It is the first sign of his ancient-vision ability awakening. To save his terminally ill younger sister, he is forced to start livestreaming “Treasure Appraisal Across Time and Space”:
First crisis: A bronze ding vessel conceals a countdown to a future nuclear bomb, while the truth about black-market boss Shen Wansan’s identity gradually comes to light.
Second twist: His younger sister, Shen Xiaoman, turns out to be a quantum clone from the year 3025, carrying the ultimate mission of preventing civilization from being reset.
Core conflict: When coins sent as livestream tips contain radioactive material and a quantum computer appears at a treasure appraisal, Shen Wansan discovers that what people call “finding a bargain” is really a race to rescue the seeds of civilization from cracks in time and space.
As the bronze sacred tree connects parallel universes, Shen Wansan triggers twenty-second-century technology during a 2025 livestream:
Use a Song-dynasty porcelain pillow to receive coordinates from the metaverse.
Use oracle-bone script prophecies to stop nanorobots running amok.
Use a blood-jade pendant as a medium to rewrite an alien civilization’s genetic code.
The final revelations:
The underground palace beneath Panjiayuan is an ark of civilization built in 2125.
Shen Xiaoman’s consciousness has already spread to the edge of the Milky Way.
Every livestream is preserving a key to reboot civilization for humanity.
Innovative features:
Integrates livestream tips with time travel: viewer likes determine branches in the timeline.
Introduces the concept of “cultural relic viruses”: damaged artifacts release cognitive contamination.
Pioneers “treasure-appraisal-style interstellar warfare”: uses a bronze jue cup to refract lasers and destroy an alien fleet.
