Introduction to "Veins of Rust":
Urban planner Lin Yanzhi never thought that his grandfather, whom he had never met, would leave behind an old house full of mysteries. An unexpected inheritance drags her into the folds of time - the rusty key can open the cracks in memory, the strange symbols on the thread-bound book overlap with the scenes in her dream, and the scratches on the edge of the well perfectly match the red spots that occasionally appear on her wrist.
There are broken clues hidden in my grandfather's diary: "Antiquities will choose their owners, and blood will repay old debts." When the footsteps of midnight sounded in the empty old house, and when the names related to "Lin" emerged from history one after another, Lin Yanzhi realized that this inheritance was not a gift, but a destiny that spanned a hundred years.
Those ancient relics scattered all over the place are not only the code to unlock the family curse, but also the prey coveted by the dark forces. She must follow the tingling of her blood and piece together the truth among the whispers of antiquities: Why did her grandfather live alone all his life? What secrets does the missing visitor carry? And why did she see a life that was not her own when she touched those cold objects?
The rusty veins spread in time, one end is connected to the dusty past, and the other end is connected to her inescapable future. When the fragments of the truth finally came together, she understood: the so-called bloodline was never a shackle, but a map carved by her ancestors with their lives to guide her towards the light.
