The most painful love in the world is never separated by chance, life and death, but a misstep of Yin and Yang, a difference of thought, spanning a thousand years.
At the end of the Qing Dynasty, the Qinhuai River was hazy with mist and rain, the boats were painted and the music was played, and the wind and moon were thousands of things. A gentle and kind son from an aristocratic family, an actor with clean bones from the dust, stole a moment of deep love from the shackles of the world. Regardless of the disparity in status and fear of the world's criticism, they made a sincere promise to each other and made a pact with their lives, vowing to stay together forever.
But fate is the most unkind. A journey of life and death together was completely overturned by the drug-induced jet lag.
She went to the underworld first and waited for eternity. She mistakenly believed that her deep love was a lie and her true heart was betrayed. She entered reincarnation with resentment all over her body, forgetting all her past loves and hates.
He came half a step late, wandering alone in the endless desolation of the human world and the underworld, watching the reincarnation of his beloved separated, and then gave up reincarnation, gave up the past life, and was willing to be a lonely soul free of yin and yang.
Thousands of years of vicissitudes have occurred, and the world has changed several times. The ancient ferry has become a ruin, the deserted city has become a city, neon lights have replaced candlelight, and the hustle and bustle has covered up the music. He traveled thousands of miles across mountains and rivers, endured years of loneliness, and spent his soul drifting away, searching persistently in the ups and downs of the world, just to make up for the helpless miss that year.
Reunion across thousands of years, old songs heard again, old friends still the same. The misunderstanding and estrangement in the past life, and the gentleness in this life can make up for it, but they cannot withstand the shackles of destiny that lead to different paths between humans and ghosts.
He was greedy for the perfection of staying together for the rest of his life, so he had to endure the end of his soul being destroyed; she had to bear the burden of a silent parting in exchange for the rest of her stable years.
Deep love cannot match the way of heaven, and obsession can eventually defeat fate.
A thousand-year journey, a brief reunion, all kinds of tenderness, and in the end only the mountains and seas, the evening breeze, and the empty thoughts are left.
Everyone in the world laments the joys and sorrows in the song, but no one knows that this love that spans a thousand years began with a deep love for each other and ended with no return.
Once we are separated, we are separated by thousands of years.
Purpose: Love cannot overcome the estrangement in troubled times, and hatred will eventually lose to the grace of blood and procreation.
