Library

The historian sorted out the relics of the five assassins: the fragments of the fish intestine sword, the linen broken arm model, the soil under the Yurang Bridge, the tear scarf of Nie Zheng's sister, and the copy of the map that Jing Ke failed to send. He wrote on the bamboo slips: "Zhuan Zhu used fire to open the foundation of Wu; Yao Li used wood, and the strong wood faced the wind; Yu Rang used earth to establish the soul of the warrior; Nie Zheng used gold to fulfill his promise; Jing Ke used water to die for the hope of the world. His ambition is bright and his actions are fierce, but the wheel of history has never been changed by one thorn. What they pierced was not the body of the king, but the iron curtain called 'destiny' that has not changed for thousands of years." Finally, he closed the bamboo slip and sealed it. The camera zooms out, and the torrent of history rolls forward, but the figures of the five assassins, like stars in the dark night, will always shine in the memory of the nation. Their failure just highlights the eternity of their spirit.
