A love story in troubled times that is deafening in silence.
She is the daughter of a guilty minister, who was poisoned and sent to a royal temple to become mute, and will never be able to speak.
He is a dumb sweeping monk who rings a string of bone wind chimes on the top of the tower every night to pay homage to the souls of the dead.
Two people whose voices have been taken away by the world can read the abyss in each other's eyes in silence.
Until she discovered——
The string of bone bells was made from the remains of his lover who died in battle.
And the secret message her father desperately hid points to the same bloody conspiracy.
"The wind blows like a bell, but no one knows it's an old friend coming."
When the rebirth mantra sounded, the pursuers had arrived at the foot of the tower.
He dipped his blood and wrote the last line: "I will take you away."
But she tore off her dress and used charcoal as a pen: "No, I will take you back to kill you."
"Gu Qingci, are you afraid?"
She wrote on the snow: "Afraid. But even more afraid of you ringing the bell alone."
When the mute begins to "speak", the entire Chang'an will hear the mournful cry of the bone bell.
