The solitary article is unique, and the utensils have spirits.
Lu Shichen is an orphan who barely makes ends meet in college by relying on scholarships and doing odd jobs at the antique market on weekends. He thought his life would go on like this - until he bought a piece of broken porcelain at a street stall in the evening.
That piece of porcelain contained a cry for help from a thousand years ago.
From then on, his world was turned upside down.
He can touch the sleeping souls in the objects - fragments of the brush wash of Tang Dynasty poet Zhang Ruoxu, bronze mirrors and swords of Song Dynasty generals, jade bracelets of women in the Republic of China who died with hatred, silk books guarded by Han Dynasty envoys with their lives... Behind every ancient object, there is a story that has not been told, and an obsession that has not been put away.
And the voice that first woke him up is still calling——
"Save me."
In order to find the lost manuscript of Zhang Ruoxu's "Moonlit Night on the Spring River", Lu Shichen embarked on a journey that spanned a thousand years. In the mist and rain of Suzhou, beside the ancient ferry in Yangzhou, and in the dust of history, he approached the truth step by step, and also moved towards a bigger secret step by step.
Appreciating spirits is not just about artifacts, but also people's hearts.
