Bones Are Buried in the Tao, and Lonely Souls Are Overwhelmed by the Madness.

Lin Daiqing is the last guardian of Qingcang Mountain and a Taoist genius who comes once in a thousand years in the Lin family. Cultivate the most righteous way, suppress the most ferocious evil, and never cross the line - until she met Shen Yanzhi in the bamboo forest in the back mountain. He is a lonely soul who has been trapped for hundreds of years. He was deceived into the formation eye by her ancestors and sacrificed as a living sacrifice, and he will never be reincarnated. She didn't ask about his merits and demerits during his lifetime, or the differences between Yin and Yang. She just walked into the cold bamboo sea at dusk day after day, talked with him, listened to his poetry, and found the only echo of her half-life loneliness in his empty shadow. Gu Yanci devoted all the tenderness in the world to pave a road for her to lead to a stable world - the Hengwen Pavilion, the nourishing ginseng soup, and the river view courtyard, all of which are the destinations that women in the world dream of. But that was never what she wanted. He could give her a lifetime of glory, but he couldn't give her the resonance of her soul; he could protect her body, but he couldn't fill the desolation in her heart that had nothing to do with him. She rummaged through the Scripture Pavilion to find out the truth about the murder a hundred years ago. She rejected the fateful solution of exchanging lives for lives, improved the heaven-defying formation, and wanted to find a way to achieve both ends without anyone having to die. But her bloodline is firmly bound to the underground seal - the more she saves people, the closer she gets to death; the more she wants to have both, the more she tears herself into pieces between the two lines. One is trapped in the past, and can only empathize with her but cannot touch her. Standing in the future, one can only give her the world but cannot share her soul. No matter who she chooses, she will be disappointed, and no matter who she chooses, she will not be satisfied. But fate never gave her a chance to choose. "You have been waiting for a hundred years. What you are waiting for is not for someone to replace you. What you are waiting for is for someone to tell you that you can leave without changing." The century-old bamboo sea is proof. Three people, two relationships, nothing. Love cannot be gained, gained but lost again, lost but never forgotten. Purpose: The dignity and courage of a person to love, save and carry with all his strength under fate. Lin Daiqing has never been a weak woman pushed by fate. She knew that her ancestral precepts could not be violated, but she still walked into the bamboo sea; she knew that her bloodline was bound to the seal, and the more she saved people, the closer she would be to death, but she still improved the formation; she knew that both ways were a delusion, but she still used up her last breath. She was not defeated by fate - she walked the path she chose in her own way in the desperate situation of fate. This is not a story about "the heroine dies for love", but a story about "people still choose to burn themselves to illuminate others even though they know the outcome." Her tragedy is not that she is weak, but that she is so strong that no one can share it for her. Redemption and repayment of a century-old debt. The ancestors of the Lin family used a scam to imprison innocent people for hundreds of years. This blood debt weighs on every generation of mountain guards. Lin Daiqing was the first person to stand up and repay the debt - not by escaping by exchanging lives, but by taking positive responsibility by improving the formation. She paid off the debts of her ancestors, released Shen Yanzhi's shackles, and kept the seal for the people at the foot of the mountain. The story explores how future generations should face the sins left by their predecessors - whether to continue to hide it, or to bear it calmly. Two forms of love - soul resonance and human protection, each with its own preciousness and imperfections. Shen Yanzhi gave Lin Daiqing the resonance of the soul, but could not give her the warmth of the body; Gu Yanci gave her the stability of the world, but could not enter the deepest desolation in her heart. The story does not judge which kind of love is better, but presents the limits and regrets of both kinds of love. The real tragedy is not that you choose the wrong person, but that no matter who you choose, there are irreparable shortcomings.
