When the blood words "King Zhou You is not dead" appeared on the inner wall of the bronze tripod of the Warring States Period, the life of cultural relic restorer Su Ci was completely rewritten by the ancestral Tiangong brush. The blood dripping from the fingertips awakens the spirit of the artifacts that have been sleeping for three thousand years, and also reveals the secrets of the Gods that have been covered up by history - King You on the beacon tower is not playing tricks on the princes, but casting bronze containers that seal shocking secrets; the Nine Sons of the Candle Dragon in the "Shan Hai Jing" are not legends, but spiritual bodies guarding these containers. Everything they breathe turns into fire.
As serial arson cases in museums occur frequently, Lin Ye, a descendant of the guardian, breaks into her life with the ancient mission of "the guardian of the mountains and seas" and tells a truth that subverts her cognition: the "original people" in ancient times are not mythical phantoms, but the aboriginal people of the earth who were enslaved by alien gods. What is sealed in the bronzes is not the spirit, but their tampered memories; and the Tiangong brush passed down from generation to generation in the Su Ci family is the "key" that can awaken these memories. Every restoration is a re-trial of history, and every awakening accelerates the burning of one's own life.
Gu Yan, the mysterious descendant of the primitive people, the guardian conservatives who covet the fragments, the projection of gods trying to obliterate everything, the gluttonous beast that feeds on memories... All forces are fighting around the seven "Fragments of the Age of Gods". When Su Ci saw the truth that "Nuwa Mend the Sky" was actually a god repairing an energy tower in the murals of the Mogao Grottoes in Dunhuang, discovered the secret of gods feeding on human faith in the Luchena Buddha in the Longmen Grottoes, and touched the sleeping consciousness of primitive people under the glaciers of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, she finally understood: the so-called "age of the gods" was nothing but an alien civilization.
