The Missing Sacred Tree

The mysterious phone call received on a rainy night opened the beginning of this novel's strange and profound story. "The Bronze Sacred Tree" uses "psychic" as a guide, dragging readers into a mysterious underground world that is more gloomy than "Tomb Raiders" and more "oriental" than Cthulhu. The author's writing skills are profound, and the depiction of underground wonders and psychological horror is breathtaking. The images of bronze sacred trees, human face leaves, and distorted flesh and blood are extremely impactful. The protagonist Chen Xi's struggle from sacrifice to "living contract" and the emotional undercurrent under Lu Xue's cold mask form the tension throughout. This is not a simple adventure story, but a dark fable about pollution, contract and the meaning of existence. When "the wish to return to ruins has become dusty", all adventures become a fall into the abyss, and readers can only follow with bated breath, waiting in the endless darkness for the next glimmer of light - or complete annihilation.
