Deep in the old alley, Wen You guards a small painting shop.
The literary family has adhered to the ancestral precepts for generations and will never touch the strange ancient paintings unearthed in ancient tombs and temples.
But a rubbing of a Taoist temple mural from the Ming Dynasty forcibly dragged him into the shadow painting.
The so-called shadow painting uses essence, blood and aura to paint, and the painting forms a world of its own, imprisoning the souls of the dead and hiding secrets.
Every time you step into a negative painting, the ink lines on your wrist will deepen, and your lifespan will continue to decrease.
The Painting Bone Department guards the forbidden paintings in the world, while the Yinhui Sect plunders the spiritual energy of the paintings everywhere, and the two forces are fighting endlessly.
Wen You, who is gifted with the ability to repair broken paintings, is burdened with the inescapable curse of ink marks.
Yan Ji, a solitary and solemn cinnabar skeleton painter, and Zhao Siheng, a free and easy casual cultivator who travels north and south to acquire ancient paintings, travel with him to the world of paintings one after another.
The ancient temple in the barren mountain, the secret village of the chieftain, and the conspiracy that has been buried for thousands of years slowly surfaced.
On one side is the life-threatening danger of the painting, and on the other is the endless bond of love.
It was only when he tore apart all the truth that he realized that this fate had been destined since the time of his ancestors.
————————
There are "yin paintings" between heaven and earth: in ancient times, alchemists, shamans, and Taoist monks used their own essence and blood and the aura of mountains and rivers to paint paintings. The paintings formed their own independent small worlds, which were called painting realms.
The paintings contain dead souls, ancient seals, lost secrets, and secrets from thousands of years ago.
Ordinary people see paintings only as scenery, but the skeleton painter can tear off the painting paper and step into the painting realm;
The painting environment is depleted. Frequent painting will erode the soul and leave an irreversible curse of painting marks;
There are two major forces in the world:
1. Department of Bone Paintings: The government is in hiding, gathers the orthodox bone painters, recovers and seals dangerous paintings, and prevents the evil spirits in the paintings from breaking into reality. The rules are strict;
2. Yinhuimen: The evil sect's masters forcibly plunder ancient paintings and extract the spiritual energy from the paintings to practice.
Intention: Perseverance can break the situation
