Qibei City lights up thousands of lanterns only once a year.
If you write a wrong word for "lamp", things outside the city will be one step closer.
On the night of the lantern festival, Lu Guanlan, an ordinary rubbing shop apprentice, found an unnumbered lamp on which his name was being written. There is also an unnamed corpse under the lamp, as well as a black card that will automatically erase the record.
The next day, Su Wangyan, the courier who grew up with him, disappeared from the city registration book, the courier book, and everyone's memory. Shopkeeper Meng didn't remember her, and the neighbors didn't recognize her. Only the half page of old paper in Lu Guanlan's hand still reminded him: this person once existed.
In order to retrieve Su Wangyan, Lu Guanlan embarked on the path of cultivating immortality for the first time.
He has no prominent bloodline, no invincible magic weapon, and can only rely on a black pen, a typobook, and memory details that will be lost every time he uses his spiritual power to track down Kaimonji, Black Well, and nine nameless cities.
He soon discovered that the really scary thing was not that someone erased a person's name, but that someone wrote "decided for you" into a rule.
Some people want to arrange a place for the deceased, some want to keep the memory of the living, and some want to change a suspension into permanent consent.
There is only one thing Lu Guanlan can do:
Before every time you write, ask yourself.
But when his name begins to fall off the old records, he must make his first real choice between retrieving Su Huanyan and keeping his place of origin.
