Synopsis

Only those who aren't afraid to die deserve to know. In 1945, the Seven Gates gathered at Duanchang Gorge. After that battle, the secret ceased to be a secret and became a debt paid in blood. Ye Yitian was merely the least remarkable heir of the Pi Gate, scraping by in Shencheng in Northeast China with his skill at making high-quality counterfeits. But then a damaged fragment of a hidden map from Along the River During the Qingming Festival appeared before him. Soon afterward, the authorities came calling, and several factions from the underworld followed suit. Some wanted him to restore the hidden map, some demanded the iron certificate, and others wanted him silenced forever.

The score left unsettled by the Yiyou Incident was finally called in more than half a century later. What exactly was hidden in the iron certificate? Why had the ancestors of the Seven Gates turned against one another over it? And why had the master craftsman of the Pi Gate rather alter a map than let the truth come to light? Dragged deeper and deeper into the whirlpool, Ye Yitian discovers that the ambush at Duanchang Gorge in 1945 was far more than a simple attack. The black coffin, the River of the Underworld, and the corner erased from the hidden map all point to more than a treasure. They point to something that should never be touched: a truth that has slept beneath a Northern Song underground palace to this day, with even the golden book and iron certificate serving only as a cover-up.

The underworld is still the same underworld; only its outward appearance has changed. Ye Yitian wants to walk away, but it's already too late. Someone in the shadows has chosen his path for him. The moment he restores that altered hidden map, the truth will come to light. The missing corner doesn't show a road. It shows a door. What lies behind it is something the living should never see.

Are There Any Stories Told in the First Person?

Are there any books where the protagonist narrates in first person as “I”? Like, everyone else says, “She eats breakfast,” but the book says, “I eat breakfast.” Female-oriented fiction, like [something] x me.

Do not have the protagonist find some treasure and then meet an Old Li or Old Wang who constantly mentors him, calls him a friend despite their age difference, and so on. Damn it, make it a little closer to reality. And when it comes to women, do they really have to pretend to be upright gentlemen? Do you not know what young people with money are like? Make it more realistic! Let them have some fun.
