Ye Li, a small owner of a candy shop in Hangzhou, has a secret - in her short videos on Douyin teaching people how to make green dough balls, she can always see the barrage floating past the classical Chinese text from 1893. When she returned to her ancestral home in Longquan during the Qingming Festival to pay homage to her ancestors, a gilt bronze mirror with a pear pattern pulled her into a parallel time and space: She was the daughter of the prime minister's house, but she was stuffed into the sedan chair as a marriage pawn. The celadon betrothal gift sent by her fiancé Li Xianghe contained enough uranium ore to blow up the entire city.
In order to escape her fate, she formed a deadly alliance with the border guard general Zhao Ze'an, only to discover that this conspiracy spanned three centuries: Li Xianghe was actually a survivor of World War II who traveled through time and attempted to use the flood from Jinghu Dam to flood the starting point of the Japanese invasion of China. When the bronze mirror simultaneously reflected a modern excavator and an ancient saltpeter secret tunnel, Ye Li was shocked to realize that she had already been involved in a closed loop of cause and effect - the year 1943 when her great-grandmother jumped into the river while wearing a mirror, the year 1893 when Zhao Ze'an died in battle, and the year when he woke up in 2024. They were falling apart in quantum entanglement.
"Use Douyin live broadcast to crack the code of Hu Xuanwu, and use Qingtuan glutinous rice to glue the cracks in space and time." She tore open the radiation map lining the wedding dress and threw the love jade pendant against the gear set. When the pear blossoms in the sky are falling with quantum dust, the torrential rains of the two worlds finally meet: the handsome captain in the modern ward holding the archaeological report, the scar on the side of her neck and the crack in the bronze mirror in her hand spell out the Tai Chi totem that spans thousands of years.
——What I save is not history, but us who are unwilling to accept our fate in every time and space.
Purpose: We cannot prevent heavy rains from falling in every era, but at least we can teach everyone who is exposed to the rain how to turn gunpowder smoke into glaze and burn stars in the kiln fire of history.
