Lin Xuan, a 32-year-old researcher of ancient books, died in a rented house.
When he opened his eyes again, he became the young master of the Bluestone Territory in another world.
When the old man watching the funeral saw him come back from the dead, he was not surprised. He just asked in fear:
"Why... Another one is alive?"
Before he could understand the meaning of this sentence, Lin Xuan had to face a more realistic desperate situation: there were only 83 people and 12 remnants left in the territory, with less than a month of food, the city wall was on the verge of collapse, and everyone was waiting to escape.
What's even weirder is that half of the stored food has disappeared, the imperial soldiers have secretly sneaked in, the beasts in the mountains have fled en masse, and a huge blue bird is looking for him. And the fragments of "Mountains and Seas" that appeared with him actually belonged to an era that disappeared three thousand years ago.
People in this world call strange beasts monsters, hunt them down, seal them, and write them into a history full of fear.
Lin Xuan gradually discovered that "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" recorded their appearance and abilities, but did not record their real names.
Qingluan is not a pet, the nine-tailed fox is not a witch, and Xiang Liu is not a monster that only brings floods. They have family, civilization, love, and they also remember a war buried in human history.
Starting from a dilapidated city with only 83 people, Lin Xuan wants humans and beasts to sit at the same table again.
But when the tampered history is gradually restored, he must answer a more dangerous question:
If both humans and beasts have committed unforgivable sins, are they still qualified to renew the covenant?
