A fool who loves with all his life, and a girl who waits with all his life. Yunmengze's world, the book of life and death, is filled with their names.
Deep in the realm of death, he knelt in the void, desperately trying to catch the dissipating light spots - that was her soul.
He is the third-generation Grand Commander, in charge of life and death, and slays evil spirits. Hidden under the mask is a heart that dares not be emotional. But eighteen years ago, he picked up a crying girl from the bluestone and never let her go again.
In order to save her, he stepped into the realm of death and exchanged his life for her soul. The three days and three nights on the Forgotten River ferry were his final confession: "What I picked up is mine. It will be mine for the rest of my life."
When she woke up, he was gone. But she held his hand and could feel the remaining warmth in it - his soul was still there, waiting for her.
The empress three hundred years ago woke up from her slumber, and there was a greater conspiracy hidden deep in the world of death. She took his Ge and a little girl with her name on her way to Chang'an. And he was deep in the realm of death, waiting for her to come back.
"I'll wait for you." This was his obsession, and it was also her way back.
