In ancient times: Summon souls with banners, purify the body and spirit, guide the dead across the bridge, and chant sacred repentance scriptures.
Today: Summon souls and hang banners, guiding the dead to eternal rest.
The mysterious tradition of soul summoning has been passed down to this day, and its practitioners still make a living guiding souls across the bridge. But the method of summoning souls with banners was lost long ago, and no one knows how to use it. This mysterious ritual and extraordinary ability have become legends, and a source of regret for the Jing family.
Jing Ge, descendant of the soul summoners and future head of the Jing family, is unfortunately a cripple. People have always looked down on the disabled heir.
Yuan Tian, an unexpected guest who came to the Jing family seeking shelter, stood before Jing Ge one day and said, "Want to cross that bridge? I can help you. But you have to help me find something... the soul-summoning banner..."
Jing Ge narrowed his eyes slightly, considered it for a while, then nodded.
From then on, the disabled man had an ally to cross the bridge with...
On the other side of the bridge, what did Jing Ge finally discover his family had been doing?
He slowly rose from his wheelchair and made a "shh" gesture at Yuan Tian.
Yuan Tian stared at him in shock. "What? You can stand?"
Jing Ge only gave him a faint smile. "I can, but I mustn't."
Yuan Tian: "Why?"
Jing Ge: "If you want to know, then watch me closely."
Yuan Tian: ...
What are you scheming, you brat?
Jing Ge: ...
And you have the nerve to say that about me? You're the one who's scary!
Yuan Tian: ...
