Synopsis
Thousands of years ago, Chu Siqing died to save the people, but her soul was detained by the Emperor of Heaven. In order to reincarnate her, Zhongyan went deep into the Gate of Chaos to kill spirits and monsters, but his soul was infected by evil spirits. After finally completing the task, Chu Siqing's reincarnation Xin Yuqing fell into the conspiracy of the God of Cause and Effect, and suffered a tragic fate. Xin Yuqing accidentally obtained the book "Recalling the Future" and went back to the past again and again, hoping to change the fate of Li's country being occupied, but she didn't know that every time she went back, she would fall into a deeper crisis. Chu Cang's betrayal, Xia Zhaoxing's cruelty, the God of Cause and Effect is pressing every step of the way... But in Yuanjin Mountain, Zhongyan, who had only a few days left, decided to sacrifice himself and plan the plan together with Chu Yang. When Xin Yuqing looks back for the first time, the gears of the story begin to turn. Can she escape the control of the God of Cause and Effect and rewrite her own and Liguo's destiny amidst numerous crises? Intention: - A dialectical discussion of "cause and effect": breaking the fatalism of "cause and effect" and showing that cause and effect is not an absolute shackle. Even if one is burdened with a heavy past (Chu Siqing's remaining cause and effect), people can still impact the established trajectory through choice and resistance (Xin Yuqing's retrospection attempt, the sacrifice of loyal advice), and explore the game between "fate" and "subjective choice". - The value of sacrifice and protection: With the protection and ultimate sacrifice of loyal words spanning thousands of years, and Chu Yang's perseverance to his sister as the core, it interprets the weight of love and responsibility in extreme dilemmas - even if there is a disparity in power (against the God of Cause and Effect) and cruel fate, pure protection itself is the most powerful resistance to the "conspiracy". - The struggle and growth of human nature: Through Xin Yuqing's transformation from impulsive to calm in retrospect, and the painful choices when facing betrayal (Chu Cang) and death (companion sacrifice), it shows how people stick to their true hearts in desperate situations and avoid being pushed astray by cause and effect, and explores "the perseverance of human nature in difficult situations". - Resistance to "pseudo-theocratic power": The God of Cause and Effect uses rules to manipulate the destinies of others for personal gain, which is essentially an abuse of "theocratic power". The struggles of the characters in the story also imply the questioning and subversion of this unfair "authority", emphasizing that individual will should not be manipulated at will by powerful forces.
