Sixteen mysterious stone pillars are engraved with sixteen key nodes that rewrite the history of China. The ultimate trial that risks one's own existence begins here.
Shen Du accidentally broke into this weird chess game and became an unknown passer-by from various dynasties. He was forced to abide by the cruel rules: he knew the direction of official history, but he had to go against history and complete the task before he could light up the stone pillar.
On the banks of the Yishui River, he had to help Jing Ke successfully assassinate Qin, but he could not let the unified structure of Qin collapse; in front of the Xuanwu Gate, he had to stop the bloody mutiny, but still ensure Li Shimin's successful accession to the throne; in Chenqiao Station, he had to let Huang Paojia fail, but let Zhao Kuangyin safely proclaim himself emperor. From burning books and entrapping Confucians to the Reform Movement of 1898, from the Anshi Rebellion to the Battle of Yashan, there are sixteen games against the odds. Each task has contradictory hidden conditions, and every decision faces the ultimate torture of "if you change history, will you be annihilated?"
He deduces the butterfly effect between official history and variables, seeks a breaking balance in the superposition of time and space, resolves historical paradoxes with wisdom, and changes destiny without completely subverting the context. As the stone pillars light up one by one, the long river of history being reshaped will eventually reveal the ultimate truth of this trial of time and space.
Concept: The work uses sixteen key nodes that rewrite Chinese history as the stage, telling the story of the protagonist Shen Du in the trial of "going against history", deducing the butterfly effect and solving historical paradoxes in the gap between official history and variables. The work is based on the real historical context and takes "changing history without subverting the foundation of civilization" as the core. It conveys the positive values of respecting history, reverence for civilization, and breaking through with wisdom. It explores the choices and responsibilities of individuals in the current of the times, shows the diverse possibilities of Chinese civilization at different historical crossroads, promotes the excellent traditional Chinese culture, and conveys a positive attitude towards life.
