Story summary
When the twisted pottery figurines appeared in the Wilderness Inn, and when the sticky dark green traces reappeared, Xu Qingzhu knew that the secret of Snake Corpse Village had spread like a plague. With an uncertain future and a serious injury, she has to go with Qi Xiangjun, a young man whose identity is a mystery - he seems innocent, but he is always testing and every step is calculating.
"Staying with me is the safest thing." He smiled lightly and led her into the fog. The workers here are like living dolls, the dry wells hide mysteries, and all clues point to the turbulent Kyoto city.
From a temporary alliance of mutual suspicion to a tacit partnership of life and death, they peeled off cocoons among the strange pottery figurines and sticky traces, and jointly faced the murderous intention surging in the dark.
"After entering the city, do you want to start from the top or start from the bottom?" He put the choice in her hands, and also opened the prelude to going deep into the core of the empire's power.
When the mysterious secrets of the pottery figurines point directly to the depths of the palace, and when the mastermind behind the scenes emerges, this journey that began with suspicion and calculation will blossom into unexpected flowers amidst the light and shadow of swords.

"Then use it for a little longer, so long that... You and I forget that we are actually acting in this scene."
Intention: All things rotate, but you remain unchanged
