Lin Yuan, a social editor who worked overtime until late at night, picked up an ancient book that blinked between the newsstand and the trash can on the way to the last subway.
I turned to the first page and saw a beautiful illustration of mountains and rivers.
Then a line of words appeared:
"Record Book of Mountains and Seas."
Turn to the second page and see a beautiful painting of a human face, a snake body, and a strange beast.
Below the picture are two lines of text:
"Cracks appear in Jizhou Cauldron."
"The candle dragon will be on patrol soon."
People who inexplicably lose time in the "time mezzanine" of the subway;
The wedding was filled with the sound of joy and the cry of the bride, but the bride and groom were nowhere to be seen;
The residents of the ancient town collectively forgot their names, but they knelt before the same ruined temple.
Everyone said it was an illusion, until someone from the Special Office knocked on his door:
"Everything you see is real. Every one of the strange beasts in the Classic of Mountains and Seas is alive."
Lin Yuan finally realized——
The strange beasts in Shan Hai Jing are not legends, but real existences!
The Jiuding seal is breaking, the four murderers have escaped, and he is the only person who can record their truth.
