An accident suddenly made twelve-year-old Shi Moyan an orphan. She was dependent on her young brother and elderly grandmother, struggling to survive in poverty and hardship.
The death of her parents was by no means an accident, and the recurring dreams in the middle of the night contained hints that she couldn't understand.

But what the archaeological shovel unearthed was not only a thousand-year-old soil layer, but also an intricate conspiracy of cultural relics and a power whirlpool involving many forces. When the secret of life and time travel quietly surfaced, and when the fog of the past collided with the disputes of reality, Shi Moyan realized that this pursuit was destined to be a game with no retreat from the beginning.
