This is a fateful love story that runs in both directions in the gap between reverse time and space. It is also an epic story about the guardian of civilization.
Story summary:
Shen Buyan, a modern ancient book restorer, accidentally triggered a mysterious power and traveled to ancient times during a restoration of ancient cultural relics. He was surprised to find that every time he traveled through time, he would return to an earlier point in time.
In ancient times, he met Lu Wanwan, the female official of the Imperial Academy. The encounter between the two was a cruel dislocation: from Shen Buyan's perspective, his love for Lu Wanwan gradually deepened with each flashback; but from Lu Wanwan's perspective, her deep love for him had been unforgettable since their first encounter many years ago, and every time they reunited, she became more familiar with him than the last time, and she could foresee their destined tragic ending earlier.
Shen Buyan started from the last words of a strange woman on the execution ground, fought side by side with her, witnessed her love affair, and traced the starting point of her life, and finally discovered Lu Wanwan's true identity - an orphan from the previous dynasty and a "civilized Tibetan keeper." She endured infamy and sacrificed everything in order to preserve a group of precious classics that could reveal the truth of history and avoid war in future generations.
When Shen Buyan deciphered the cultural code she had set throughout her life and traveled to the eve of her fateful turn at the age of 14 for the last time, he did not try to change history, but completed the closed loop of love and the inheritance of civilization.
