The Old Root of the Lotus Root

Under the ruins of Yanglin Village in Hanshui lies a fateful chess game that lasted for hundreds of years. The Chen, Xu, Mu, and Zhou families each used their own methods to weave shackles with human feelings, illusions, destiny, and bystanders to trap the fate of women from their hometown for generations.​ A hundred years ago, the four sisters of the first generation of the Lin family stepped forward to fight with their bodies and blood, trying to break the solid shackles. However, they were unable to eradicate the remaining roots of fate. They could only regret to seal the situation, leaving a ray of vitality and unfinished regret for future generations.​ The cycle of reincarnation turns around and the destiny is reset. The four sisters of the contemporary Lin family, scattered across the country, woke up one after another, shed the shackles of their lives, and went to their hometown to start a new chapter. The calm and transparent Lin Wan defends the situation, the strong and proud Lin Qiao defies fate, the cold and wise Lin Yao breaks through the illusion, and the gentle and pure Lin Shu cuts off the attachment.​ The four people stick together to support each other, complement each other and break the situation, dismantle the secret calculations of the four centuries-old checks and balances, and face the treacherousness of people's hearts and the heavy pressure of destiny. The predecessors stopped at breaking the wall and were trapped in the end game; the four concubines in this generation broke through the situation with their true intentions and broke the cycle of reincarnation with their obsession. They vowed to cut off the root cause of fate and overturn the ancient rules, so that the ruins can finally bloom freely and end this fateful game that has spanned a century. Purpose: This article uses the hundreds of years of fateful reincarnation in Yanglin Village of Hanshui as the background, and uses the journey of two generations of the four Lin family sisters to break through the situation to tell the story of the growth of generations of women who have broken free from the shackles of fate and cut off the shackles of class checks and balances. The predecessors broke through the wall, left roots to save their glory, and ended up trapped in the end game with regrets; in this generation, the four people gave up the fireworks and settled down, crossed the mountains and rivers to return to their hometown, and faced the dark situation of the centuries-old game between the four families and the shackles of people's hearts. The story breaks away from love entanglements and focuses on women's self-rescue, self-awakening and generational inheritance. It explains that true life-breaking is not about escaping from trouble temporarily, but about daring to face cause and effect, reckoning with the past, cutting off the root causes of reincarnation, and finally breaking away from the constraints of secular discipline and destiny, and earning a truly free and unfettered return to the world for future generations trapped in fate.
