Five hundred years ago, the Tang State of the Central Plains and the Spiritual Man joined forces and drove millions of underworld soldiers back to the North Underworld Ice Realm. Beiming was defeated, and General Nether died, but his aggrieved soul remained. He used his body and soul as a curse to seal the entire Beiming.
Five hundred years later, a jade vase from Beiming, said to be able to open the seal of Beiming, appeared in Chang'an City. A young girl, Li Yinlian, is ordered by her master to find a jade vase to drive out ghosts in Chang'an City. However, she encounters the beautiful young man Jiang Tong in a ghost house late at night.
So, they explore the ghost house together, pretend to be ghosts and steal the jade vase.
Li Yinlian: "Are you here to steal the jade vase too?"
Jiang Tong shook his head: "No. I just killed a ghost."
Li Yinlian: "Since you appeared here and killed the ghost, you are the enemy of the ghost. The enemy of the ghost is my friend. As a friend, you have to help me steal the jade vase."
Jiang Tong: "?"
They walked around Chang'an City together and visited Huahu Lake at night.
Li Yinlian took off a lotus pod, took out the lotus seeds and placed it in Jiang Tong's hand.
Jiang Tong: "What is this?"
Li Yinlian: "It's delicious!"
Jiang Tong put a lotus seed into his mouth and tried to take a bite. Bitter and astringent.
Li Yinlian stretched out her hand to peel off a lotus seed, carefully removed the lotus core, and handed it over: "How come you can't eat lotus seeds? How about eating it like this?"
Jiang Tong ate the peeled lotus seeds again: "Yeah, it's delicious!"
They met again under the flower vines in the pavilion.
Li Yinlian made a garland with dexterous fingers: "Jiang Tong, look, do you like it?"
Jiang Tong took the wreath and said, "I like it."
Li Yinlian: "Then do you like flowers or me?"
Jiang Tong: "What is liking?"
Li Yinlian: "To like means to be filled with joy when we see each other and to miss you deeply when we don't see you."
Jiang Tong: "Then I don't like this flower, but I like you."
This is probably the story of the love and hatred of a girl who was deceived and raised as a chess piece, and the story of her resistance to fate after knowing the truth.
Intention: If you don't want to be a chess piece on the chessboard, overturn the chessboard.
