Introduction to "Cangcheng Night Record: Yinwu and Him"
In Cangcheng, which is humid all year round, death is not the end, but the beginning of another strange story.
Lin Yan, the chief medical examiner of the Municipal Public Security Bureau, was born with a pure Yin destiny. His eyes can see the underworld, and his physique attracts evil things, but he wraps himself up with the strictest rationality, and performs the lonely drama of "science first" for fifteen years in front of the dissecting table. Until a sudden death case of an internet celebrity was broadcast live, and an ancient mirror from the Republic of China, which moved three seconds slower, shattered all his self-deception.
Xie Xun, the boss of Xun Gu Zhai, is the last "night watchman" in Cangcheng. He guards the store full of ancient relics that have come to life, and he also guards a memory that spans life and death. When the resentful soul in the mirror demanded his life, with blood on his fingertips, he broke through the evil spirit and took the dying forensic doctor into his arms. "Pure Yin life, don't touch Yin objects randomly, you will die." He warned gently, but there was a glimmer in his eyes that he had been looking for for a long time.
From then on, Lin Yan's cold world broke into a warm sun that drove away all the coldness.
However, there is an undercurrent beneath the calm. Money-eating Qing Dynasty jade buckles are demanding lives in the second-hand market, swallowing up the greed of living people; elevators in CBD skyscrapers automatically stop at non-existent floors late at night, full of invisible "passengers"; babies cry through the walls every night in villages in the suburbs, and the Guanyin statue sheds blood and tears... One after another, weird murders that cannot be explained by common sense occur one after another, and all clues point to a title hidden in the shadow of history - the destiny-defying master.
"What if we can't leave?" He once asked.
"Then I'll protect you." Xie Xun answered decisively.
Intention: 1. Fight loneliness and seek connection and understanding. 2. The dialectic between fate and free will. 3. The integration of rationality and transcendence. 4. The true meaning of guardianship is respect and side by side. 5. Only by facing the shadow can you embrace the light.
