Chen Shoumo never thought that among the relics left by the people's teacher's grandfather, the seemingly shabby thread-bound book "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" would actually be a living sealed book that needs to be guarded for generations.
He unintentionally unlocked the pages of the book, and saw a flash of light. What sprang out was not a beast that destroyed the world, but a red bird. This little bird was the strange bird in the Classic of Mountains and Seas, the owl.
This ancient bird is not only the "pioneer of escape" in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", but also a "radar" with its own complaint function. Its appearance means that the seal in the book has been loosened, and countless strange beasts and monsters that only exist in legends are quietly descending on modern cities, hiding in the shadows of neon lights.
From then on, Chen Shoumo's ordinary life completely collapsed. In his left hand, he held the ancient book that would automatically reveal the true names and weaknesses of the strange beasts. On his right shoulder stood the little cheating bird who could only blindly give directions and cry out when he was hungry. He was forced to become an "administrator of the Classic of Mountains and Seas".
Every time a strange beast is successfully included, the power of the ancient book will be strengthened, and the unreliable little bird Ou seems to have awakened new abilities. Chen Shoumo gradually discovered that his grandfather's death was not an accident, but a huge conspiracy aimed at tearing apart the barrier between the two worlds was quietly approaching, accompanied by the restlessness of the beasts.
Why are modern cities so revitalized? What exactly does grandpa protect? Who did the "Book of Mountains and Seas" come from?
Chen Shoumo held the brush in his hand and spread out the ancient book, with new pages waiting to be written. Opposite him, in the mist, the figure of the next strange beast was looming.
