In the first year of ancient times, the gods created humans, the world was in turmoil, and strange beasts wreaked havoc on the world. The White Tiger, Qinglong, Xuanwu, and Suzaku work together to pacify the four directions, and serve as divine beasts to guard the world and protect the people.
As time goes by, ancient legends are gradually forgotten, but those strange creatures hidden in mountains, lakes, seas, cities and countryside have not disappeared. They are either the incarnation of disaster, the aggregation of obsessions, or the misunderstood auspiciousness, leaving vague traces in the world.
"Collection of Relics from Mountains and Seas" is a strange book that records these lost legends. It not only records the unexplained strange beasts in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", but also collects folk secrets and strange stories from other places that have been lost in the long river of time. From midnight whispers in ancient temples in the mountains, to mirages on the shores of the East China Sea, from the forgotten dreams of ancient cities in the yellow sand desert, to adventures in the corners of bustling cities, every story is an exploration of the unknown, and every encounter is a testimony about good and evil, cause and effect, and redemption.
This is not only a story about gods and monsters, but also a grand picture depicting the symbiosis between man and nature, man and gods and monsters. Open it and you will step into a bizarre world, witness the truths buried in the dust of history, and listen to the joys and sorrows that span thousands of years.
