I Handed My Phone Over to the Future

What kind of sparks will fly when a 21st-century smartphone crosses thousands of years of time and space and falls into the hands of a future interstellar archaeologist who sees circuit boards as magic arrays and apps as supernatural abilities?

Jiang Chen is an apprentice relic appraiser living on the edge of the galaxy, drowning in debt. His world is turned upside down after he picks up a smooth “black brick.”

“Ancient Qi cultivators could send their voices a thousand miles? No, that’s called a smartphone.”

“This idol has the power to destroy heaven and earth? No, that’s called a nuclear reactor.”

“A heavenly book containing the true words of the Great Dao? Come on, it’s just an introductory guide for programmers!”

Armed with common knowledge from “prehistory,” Jiang Chen deciphers and recreates one technological relic after another, artifacts that people of the future revere as miracles. He sets out to lift the fog of history and uncover the truth behind the collapse of civilization.

But behind the truth lie the cold eyes of something lurking in the depths of the universe, and a mysterious organization willing to do anything to protect its lies.

When the past is unveiled and myths are demystified, he will stand at the crossroads of civilization and make a final choice that could determine the fate of all humanity.
