二十四节气惊魂录
Half Sleeping Whale
The spring god "Jumang" was dismembered and suppressed in the twenty-four solar terms, and the resentment turned into a ruin that swallowed the world. Lin Qiu, an ancient book restorer, was forced to inherit the bloodline of the "Night Watcher" and get a glimpse of the bloody laws behind the almanac: the scarecrow at the beginning of spring burned the lives of relatives and friends, the soul-drawing boat at the Qingming Festival required the spines of living people, and the copper coins at the winter solstice were engraved with the death status of his parents... Every time he cracked a solar term killing pattern, his body became alienated - insect scales covered the body, bones grew vines, and the "yin-discriminating pupils" opened in the palms reflected the whispers of the evil god. Three days in the Yinxu, a blink of an eye in the world. Lin Qiu struggled with the curse for ten years, but only ten minutes passed in reality. The mute girl Awu fights alongside him with a blood-painted talisman, but she is the vessel for Jumang's resurrection; the cold-blooded and crazy leader of Wuzhu's surviving clan, Da Han, is actually his biological mother who rebelled against him. The flesh and blood token gives him the power to kill gods, but also eats away at his humanity, until the final choice emerges: End the curse with the sacrifice of 100,000 human beings, or transform into a new god and forever suppress Yin and Yang? "What the night watchman guards is not the human world, but the shackles of God." Tear open the dark side of the almanac and step into an oriental dilemma where flesh and blood and solar terms are intertwined - there are no savior heroes here, only mortals who live towards death and carve their own epitaphs in the gaps between gods and ghosts.
