Moon Summer Praying for River Trees

[Cruel Wild Dog × False Light White Flower | Bidirectional Parasitism × Ultimate Redemption | Bloody Fairy Tale of Albizia Flower and Black Moon] * When he was nine years old, Jiang Qi clutched a bloody albizia leaf. Under the streetlight at the alley, the girl in black reached out to him: "Come home with me?" Jiang Qi punched her: "Get out!" ——But after she disappeared, he swallowed the blood-stained saliva alone. Holding the acacia in the hand tightly is like holding on to the last moonlight before drowning. That false light became a drug he couldn't get rid of for fifteen years. * At the age of fourteen, he moved into her old house in Jiangnan. "Gentle Angel" Chen Shu cooked porridge and applied medicine for him, watching quietly as he smashed the dishes and smeared red paint on the sheets. Until he was on the verge of death from a high fever, she cut his wrists and sold blood for medicine, then disappeared without a trace when he woke up. "She thinks I'm dirty..." Jiang Qi smashed the house deed she left behind and carved curses on all the albizia trees in Qing County. * In the key class of seventeen years old, he tore her light into pieces with his own hands. "Chen Shu, the top student?" Jiang Qi overturned her desk in public: "Why are you pretending to be a holy mother!" But when she was picking up the books, she saw the unhealed scar on her wrist—— That was evidence of his selling blood. That night he knelt under the acacia tree and licked and kissed the trembling veins on the instep of her feet: "Your dark side, I will worship it as an imperial edict." * ——It turns out that they are each other's mirror monster: She survives by pretending to be warm, and the patriarchal family drains her flesh and blood; He used violence to hide his vulnerability, and the beatings from his powerful father gave rise to bone-gnawing madness. The albizia flower on her chest is the totem of his bloody childhood. The savior in his eyes is an evil spirit even more rotten than himself. * On the wedding night when he was twenty-four, he bit into pieces the blood-stained chain of her brooch: "Chen Shu, the light you fed me back then was fake." She tore open her wedding dress to reveal the hideous scars on her wrists: "But Jiang Qi, the blood I shed for you... Has always been true." * When the moonlight drowns in the dirty Xia River, The two evil spirits wearing human skin masks finally recognized each other: "Welcome home, my accomplice." Concept: At both ends of the mirror image of the abyss of human nature, the glimmer of redemption tempers the most desperate love. Two broken souls use each other as swords, tearing apart the disguise, revealing their most unbearable desires and deepest longings - it turns out that the so-called salvation is just an invitation to go to hell together.
