Synopsis
Jiang Qingyue, the leader of the righteous path in the world of immortality, and Ye Youming, the world-destroying demon, have been chasing each other for three hundred years. After a thunderstorm, they both traveled to a modern shared house. One became a rent-arrears delivery boy, and the other transformed into a tally clerk. The old enemy who had pointed his sword at the sky yesterday was fighting over the last box of discounted eggs in the supermarket, which alerted the police to mediate. The cultivation base was forcibly bound to the Tiandao system, and the novice's task was to learn to scan the code to pay, obtain five-star praise, and pass the driving school test... Ye Youming's "World Destruction Plan" was automatically translated into "Garbage Classification Plan" and was unexpectedly commended by the neighborhood committee; Jiang Qingyue's natal flying sword became the fastest knife for chopping vegetables. From casting curses on each other to stealing leftovers from each other's refrigerators, from magic weapon duels to fighting for the bathroom, the two of them lived out their thousand-year feud into trivial daily life in a shared house with a monthly rent of 3,500 yuan. Until I discovered that the entire community was full of time travellers: Aunt Wang who danced in the square was the director of Tiandao in the community, the landlord Sister Li was a rich woman who escaped from marriage in the world of cultivation, and even the stray cats were powerful monsters. And the "Countdown to Destruction" APP on Ye Youming's mobile phone turned into a "mortgage calculator" at some point. When the passage between the good and evil worlds was opened, and the cause and effect of the past life was gradually revealed, Jiang Qingyue discovered that the last page of Ye Youming's plan to destroy the world was densely written with "If Yungui falls, this world does not need to exist." It turns out that the paranoid pursuit and protection are all the secret love that has been unspeakable for three hundred years. The Taoist heart of "protecting the common people" finally realized the true meaning in the trivial daily life: protecting one person also protects the world. Intention: Deconstruct grand narratives and reconstruct Taoist heart and true feelings in ordinary daily life. Real strength is not to destroy the world, but to be willing to put down the butcher's knife and pick up the frying pan for one person; the most profound protection is not to save the world and the people, but to accompany you to grab eggs in a shared house, save a down payment, and raise children. Through the daily comedy of sand sculptures, the work explores "how love and ordinaryness can defeat obsession and paranoia", and ultimately expresses: the end of cultivating immortality is the fireworks of the world, the end of the old enemy is firewood, rice, oil and salt, and eternal romance is to replace "destruction" with "mortgage", and "chasing" with "growing old together".
