Kamikawaki

In the autumn of the third year after the death of God, I found half a scroll of scraps by the Chishui River. The bamboo slices soaked in river mud glowed with a strange indigo color. When the fingertips touched the tadpole-shaped inscriptions, the entire river suddenly glowed with golden scales. In a trance, I saw twelve royal flags rising and falling in the waves, and the black bird embroidery on the flags turned into living creatures, passing over my eyebrows with a jade wat in its mouth. Later, I went through the classics in Taishi Pavilion and found out that this was actually the mother copy of "The Chronicles of Shenchuan" that had been lost for 800 years. Legend has it that the first generation of historians used meteorite powder mixed with dragon blood to write. Whenever the luck of the dynasty changed, the book slips would choose the owner. At this moment, the bamboo slips in front of me are undergoing changes - the mottled ink stains are swimming and reorganizing as if they have gained life, and finally condensed into three lines of bloody seal characters: "If the golden eyes appear, the emperor's star will fall." The jade seal is cracked and the king's energy is scattered When the twelve heroic monuments are soaked in blood at the same time, red water will pour into the sky." Suddenly there was a strong wind and the candle on the desk suddenly went out. The moonlight shines obliquely on the bamboo slips through the Xuan window, and a dense star map appears on the originally blank back. There is a broken sword stuck in the position of the seventh star of the Big Dipper. The carving on the sword hilt is the black bird totem of the Shenchuan Dynasty. The Kuilong bell tolls again, and the midnight drum breaks through the rain curtain. I spread out the rice paper and dipped the tip of my pen into ink mixed with stardust, and the sighs of thousands of souls came from the bottom of the Chishui River. The oaths buried by the years, the joys and sorrows soaked in history, and the truth rotting under the throne will all be revealed as the pen moves.
