Synopsis
Chen Yu, a young man from the Department of Archeology, in order to find his mentor who lost contact after going deep into the ancient tombs of the Warring States Period half a year ago, takes the incomplete rubbings left by his mentor. Together with his calm and attentive junior sister Bai Muyan, the adventurous but proficient pathfinder Fa Xiaolinshu, and the old man Lao Mo who was entrusted by his mentor and is well versed in ancient mechanisms and Feng Shui, the four of them stepped into the uninhabited area of the northwest desert and rushed to the ancient tomb of Chudi that had been dusty for thousands of years. The tomb passage is dark and gloomy, with cinnabar witch patterns covering the stone walls. Quicksand traps and dark arrow poison mist are fortified layer by layer. Every step is filled with deadly murderous intent. What's even weirder is that they fell into an unsolvable lost path and repeatedly returned to the same section of the tomb passage. The sacrificial patterns on the murals changed strangely, as if there was an invisible force trapping them in it. There were frequent dangers along the way, and Lao Mo relied on what he had learned throughout his life to repeatedly crack the trap and protect everyone from danger; Bai Muyan carefully deciphered the ancient texts and found the key clues to move forward; Lin Shu relied on his dexterity to explore the road and eliminate danger; Chen Yu relied on his obsession with his mentor and clung to the rubbings to find the truth. The four of them supported each other, and their bond gradually deepened, and they gradually discovered that this tomb was no ordinary prince's tomb. It turns out that this is a sealed tomb guarded by wizards from the Chu Kingdom. The mentor was not in danger, but voluntarily stayed to prevent the tomb from awakening. But the tomb robbers who covet the secret treasure in the tomb have already followed, the seal is on the verge of breaking, and the ancient tomb is about to collapse. Chen Yu, Bai Muyan, Lin Shu and Lao Mo fight side by side, not only to break the seal reinforced by witchcraft prophecies, but also to fight against foreign enemies. This lost journey of life and death is not only the path to find a master, but also a journey of redemption for the four of them. (Word count: 492) Do you need me to help you fine-tune the proportion of characters and scenes to make each protagonist's characteristics more prominent, or simplify it into a shorter Jinjiang profile? Purpose: I use the story of Lost in an Ancient Tomb to tell the story of the trust and perseverance of companions in times of crisis. I also want to express awe for history, and the true heart and responsibility that we should keep in the face of temptation.
