Xiang Wanning, who has repeatedly encountered difficulties in finding a job in Xi'an, leaned against the city wall of Yongning Gate at dusk and read the online article "Neon Yongning". A gust of sand swept across the pages of the book. She accidentally entered the book and became a cannon fodder supporting character of the same name.
This city has long been folded by the rules of the book: within the city walls, everyone plays the role of the script according to the rules, and the entanglements of love and hate, ups and downs and tribulations are all written in advance; outside the city walls, the Daming Palace and Weiyang ruins are free from the shackles of words, and the phantoms of the Tang Dynasty intersect with modern fireworks. It is a gray gap that belongs exclusively to the person who wears the book.
Others go through books to seize the male lead, seize opportunities, and change fate against the will of heaven, but Xiang Wanning only focuses on tearing up the plot.
The repetitive passers-by, the ever-shifting timeline, and the manipulated heroine of the original book constantly reminded her: this is just a fictional novel.
The stone carvings in the Forest of Steles hide broken time and space, and the evening breeze from the Bell Tower blows away the shackles of the script. She wanders among the streets and ruins of Xi'an, refusing to embark on the tragedy preset in the book.
When the puppet-like original heroine in the book breaks free from the shackles of words, and the two girls trapped in the illusion stand under the door of Yongning, they finally understand: the so-called rebirth is never about rewriting a story written by others, but about living a life that no one has written in Xi'an, where ancient and modern times overlap.
Intention: According to destiny, control one's own fate, and overcome by oneself
