She can heal dreams, but she doesn't know that she is also living in a dream.
A bronze mirror, a tapir beast, a forbidden technique and a love affair buried by time.
——Whose heart is the beast in the dream?
In the thirty-second year of Daojing's reign, the emperor was haunted by nightmares and was caught in a fire in the middle of the night. Lady Yue used a bronze mirror to summon the dream beast "Mirror Tapir" to save him.
The white beast in the mirror can eat people's dreams and extend their lives, but it can't control the night since then - dreams are born in people's hearts, and so are beasts.
Many years later, a female doctor from a medical clinic walked around Sichuan, often carrying an ancient mirror in her palm.
She can cure dreams, but she never looks in the mirror.
Some say she is the owner of the mirror, others say she is the person in the mirror.
After a stormy night, Chen Jingmeng, the shopkeeper of Langhuan Bookstore, stepped into her door——
A broken tooth on the chest, heard in the mirror.
Dreams overlap, and the boundary between reality and fantasy breaks down:
The dreams of the old emperor, the prince, and the people of the world were all devoured by the same white beast.
The mirror illuminates the human heart, and dreams trap all living beings.
Some people use dreams to live, and some people use dreams to seek death.
And Ji Wei finally asked that sentence:
"Whose dream does my doctor have?"
——The mirror rises from the palace, and the dream falls into the human being.
The world is all a dream, and there are beasts in the dream.
Concept: Dreams are like a mirror, what they see is not illusion, but the abyss of the human heart. "Mirror Tapir Chronicles" reveals the cycle of "dreams are born from desire and perish from awakening" through the intertwining fate of the "Dream Doctor" and the exiled prince Chen Jingmeng. It describes how people are trapped by memory and power, and also describes how people still seek a glimmer of sober courage in the midst of illusions. The mirror tapir swallows nightmares and reflects human nature: only by looking directly at your dreams can you truly wake up.
