That night in the border town, iron rain fell on the city, and the dead crawled back to the world from the mass graves.
Su Yan, a young craftsman, only wanted to keep the old bronze model left by his father, but he found a last word in the ashes: Mountains and rivers have seals, and there are lives in the seals.
From the first time he reprinted a city's seals, the deepest secret of the Dayong Dynasty was revealed - the seals of the twelve states were not a magical weapon to control the country, but a life-threatening tool that used the lifespan of the people to continue the country's destiny. The canal account book, the White Tower Lantern Festival, the Northern Military Gate, the old records of the academy... Behind every peace, someone was quietly written into the "loss book".
In order to find out the death of his father, and to prevent the living from becoming a number in the accounts, Su Yan worked with Ren Qingwu, the daughter of the criminal minister in the North, and Lu Xingzhou, a storyteller in the Jianghu to break the situation.
Some people say that the world must not be in chaos, and it is worth the death of a few people.
Su Yan wanted to ask:
If mountains and rivers must rely on cannibalism to survive, should such mountains and rivers be recast?
