Under the cold law called "Eye of History", the urban IT man's ancient consciousness was forcibly stripped away and turned into an observation sample in the hands of the gods. His soul was engraved with the mark of "causal interference locking", and was projected fractal like dust to twelve humble coordinates that were annihilated in the long river of time. From the bricks and tiles of the Qin and Han Dynasties to the mist and rain in the south of the Yangtze River, from the wind and sand on the Silk Road to the smoke of modern war, his mission is to "witness" - to personally experience the most violent moments in history, but not even a sigh can change it.
At the foot of the bitter cold Great Wall in the Qin Dynasty, Prisoner Ting, armed with modern engineering thinking, could only watch as inefficiency and cruelty swallowed up lives. He tried to save his companions, but was regarded as an ant delaying the project and froze to death under the city wall. Before he died, the "invalid signature" he left on the cornerstone became the last spasm of individual dignity under absolute violence.
In Luoyang, which was turned into a ghost town by the plague in the Eastern Han Dynasty, Aheng knew the truth of isolation and disinfection, but was imprisoned by the ignorance of the times. He was unable to prevent his mentor and children from leaving, so he could only carve detailed "clinical notes" on a wooden tablet after contracting the disease. That is not a prescription, it is the most tragic inscription for mortals to fight against impermanence.
On the Nandu Road where Hu Qi of the Western Jin Dynasty trampled the mountains and rivers, the servant Hui was carrying the Cui family's classics on his back. On the long road of witnessing books being burned and abandoned, he completed his transformation from a slave to a "lightkeeper". Finally, on the bank of the Yangtze River, he hugged the "roots" of civilization tightly in his arms and sank into the turbid current together with "Yao Canon" and "Spring and Autumn".
At the snow line of death in the Pamir Plateau of the Tang Dynasty, Shi was carrying not only goods, but also prices.
