A broken ancient mirror allows the souls of four people in two time and space to exchange - there are only seven days left, or they will be imprisoned forever if they don't return.
The modern physicist Lu Liyi is transformed into the ancient general Gu Xicheng, who holds military power but is hunted by the court; the ancient regent Xiao Qingyue is transformed into the modern researcher Mai Yue, who is at a loss in the face of the steel forest.
A bronze mirror became their only communication tool, and blood words appeared on the mirror:
"On the night of the Seven Stars, the altar must be destroyed, otherwise the two realms will be connected forever and the world will be a purgatory."
The price is - the soul of the mirror holder will be shattered into starlight.
Thirty years later, crystal flowers bloomed in both places at the same time.
In ancient times, Xiao Qingyue gave birth to "Star Descendant" Gu Nian'an. The child could calculate celestial phenomena at the age of three and promoted the industrial revolution at the age of ten.
In modern times, Lu Huaixing, Lu Liyi's daughter, was born with the ability to dream about the sea of ancient wisteria flowers.
And the "New Time Order" in the darkness is approaching quietly. They want to seize the power of the Starborn and open the door to eternal life...
This is not a time-travel novel, but a civilization watch spanning three hundred years.
When the mirror shattered and the stars sank, they chose to carve the connection into the genes of civilization - from now on, every child looking up at the stars may hear the echo of another time and space.
"We were mirror images of each other, illuminating each other's imperfections."
"Now the light has become a river, we will never meet each other, and we will never forget each other."
