Everyone knows Zhang Qiling is the patriarch of the Zhang clan, bears the blood of the Qilin, and carries the secrets and destiny of the Zhang family, spanning a thousand years.
Everyone also knows that Hei Xiazi is elusive, hiding depths no one can fathom behind his laughter and curses.
But no one knows that long before Wu Xie got caught up in this game, Hei Xiazi had already set his sights on Zhang Qiling.
Not because of a mission, not because of the Nine Gates, but because he saw something in Zhang Qiling that was just like himself.
Eyes that had lived too long and forgotten the way home.
“Blind man here has lived for nearly a hundred years. I've seen too many people and too many things. I should've learned to let go by now.”
“But you, Zhang Qiling, why the hell does my heart ache every time I see your back?”
“I don't remember,” Zhang Qiling said, his voice as faint as the snow on Changbai Mountain.
“Then don't.” Hei Xiazi took off his sunglasses, revealing eyes that glimmered in the darkness. “I'll be your eyes from here on.”
This is a story about how two people who have “lived too long” find their way home in each other.
From the Seven Star Lu Palace to the Cloud Top Palace, from the Snake Marsh Ghost City to the Zhang Family Ancient Tower, and finally to the Ultimate beyond the Bronze Gate...
They faced every brush with death side by side, only to discover that immortality was nothing more than a long loneliness.
And the only cure for loneliness is someone willing to grow old alongside you.
Even if neither of you can grow old.
I'll give you a first review. I'm sorry that I can't stand it. The plot is very confusing and I only have a rough outline of the original work. The character relationships and appearances are also messy. It also gave me a sense of man and machine.
