Eighteen hundred years are enough to turn the sea into mulberry fields, enough to turn heroes into dust, and enough to make the truth buried in layers of lies.
However, there are always some things that are more tenacious than time.
In 220 AD, Emperor Xian of the Han Dynasty Liu Xie abdicated the throne to King Cao Pi of Wei, and the Han Dynasty that lasted for more than 400 years came to an end. Historical records have characterized Cao Cao as a generational hero who "held the emperor in power to command the princes". For thousands of years, this image has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people and is almost certain.
But history is never a black and white picture.
In that troubled world where heroes were vying for the throne, in the gap between power and morality, there might be another possibility - a truth that was deliberately hidden, a promise that had been dusted by the years, and a group of guardians who would stick to it for generations.
This story begins with an ancient tomb that has been sleeping for thousands of years, with a group of young people pursuing the truth, and with a discovery that can subvert historical understanding.
When Lin Lan and his teammates stepped into that darkness, they didn't know what was waiting for them. They only know that some truths are worth pursuing, some secrets are worth guarding, and some waiting will eventually lead to answers.
Eighteen hundred years ago, someone chose to watch in the darkness.
Eighteen hundred years later, someone chose to bring light back.
This is a story about protection. Protect the truth, protect history, and protect memories that should not be forgotten.
I hope everyone who pursues the truth can find his or her own answer.
