Introduction to the novel: "Star Bridge: 1996" An old computer bridges time and space between 1996 and 2023, making the game "Star Bridge" a "redemption channel" for two frustrated people. In 2023, Shen Zhexing, who was once a computer genius, became an "electronic nomad", living by reselling equipment and game power-up, using cynicism to hide the scars of broken ideals; in 1996, Lin Xiaonan, a small-town girl, struggled in a patriarchal family and relied on ghostwriting love letters to pay for her computer. Her computer talent was regarded as a "useless pastime", and "Star Bridge" was her only respite. When they first met, the two criticized each other as "a bric-a-brac from 1996" and "a cyberbeggar from 2023", but during their complaints, they discovered that each other was a "fugitive" hiding in the game. Gradually, he checked stock market data for her and taught her how to use "future predictions" to win school opportunities; she helped him repair out-of-print simulators and use code to fight against family injustice.

Shen Yiming, a disciple of the Shen Clan, first entered the world. At the Plum Blossom Inn, he met Hu Ruoqing, a philistine but secretly clever boss. Due to an unexpected mountain bandit robbery, the two became involved in a "debt entanglement" and were forced to go to the City of Two Swords together. On the way, they were accidentally involved in the assassination of Ouyang Wufeng, the chief disciple of Shuangjian City, and got acquainted with Li Nianchen, the illegitimate son of the leader of the Demon Cult who possessed the spiritual vein of chaos and was hunted by many forces. From encountering the top five assassins in a wilderness temple, to the secret layout of Jiuxiao City's Flower Village, to the miasma poisonous insects in Broken Soul Valley and the blood sacrifice conspiracy in Ten Thousand Gu Cave, Shen Yiming, Hu Ruoqing, Ouyang Wufeng and the Taoist priest Wang Yiyuan who joined halfway formed a temporary alliance to escort Li Nianchen all the way to avoid the encirclement and interception of the Hades Palace, Dark Wind Hall, Ten Thousand Gu Cave and other forces. They cracked the Gu gathering formation, competed for the seal of the Chaos Heart Sutra, fought fiercely with body-refining masters, and exposed the collusion between the traitors and the Demon Cult in the City of Two Swords. Amidst the flashes of swords, shadows, and conspiracies, they carved out a world of their own in the world. The story is intertwined with the youthful spirit, grievances and hidden secrets. It includes the duel between the physical body, the mortal body and the Buddhist body, as well as the exciting confrontation between the black iron heavy sword and the hidden weapon of the talisman. It also contains the moral principles of inheritance, justice and protection.
