"The Second Generation of Lamps: I Help the Dead Souls Find Their Way Back" is the orthodox sequel to the hit supernatural and tender novel "The First Seven Old Drivers: It took me three years to remember after I died"! After a lapse of fifteen to twenty years, the soul-drawing man Lao Wang from the previous game was successfully redeemed and reincarnated, and the light inheritance belonging to Huaihua Village finally ushered in a new successor. From 2026 to 2030, in the Internet era where traffic is paramount, supernatural topics swept the entire Internet. No one knew that behind the popular account "Lighting the World", there was a twelve-year-old girl who could see the souls of the dead. She is Lin Weiyang, the granddaughter of Lao Wang. She has been haunted by the obsession of lonely souls invisible to ordinary people since she was a child. She lives in fear and loneliness day and night, thinking that she is an alien. It was not until she dug out her grandfather's dusty soul-drawing diary that she revealed her innate destiny. The lost souls wandering in the ruins of cities and towns and on street corners late at night, and the blood and tears of regret hidden behind urban ghost stories, are all sending silent pleas to her for help. She followed her grandfather's footsteps, lit her own soul-guiding lamp, and shuttled through the gap between yin and yang to guide the souls home and resolve their obsessions. She made a short video of her true experience, which exploded across the Internet overnight, attracting both admiration and abuse, and curiosity and redemption. But as the road to attracting souls goes deeper and deeper, Lin Weiyang is shocked to realize that some people are maliciously creating dead souls, and some are stealing the power of souls. A conspiracy to subvert the balance of yin and yang and destroy the rules of reincarnation is quietly unfolding. The girl shouldered the mission of the generation alone, going retrograde amidst the hustle and bustle of the Internet and the yin and yang crisis, fighting against the darkness with a glimmer of light, and redeeming the souls of the dead with warmth. The lights remain on and the journey home is not far away. This adventure about life, death and inheritance has just begun...

The real punishment came after Lao Wang died. The "Seven Days to Resurrection" given to him by the Judge of the Underworld was actually an illusion that stretched the seven seconds before death into three years, allowing him to repeat the evils of his life in an endless cycle. In the past three years, he still drove a taxi, raking in trouble, teasing, and taking advantage of the imaginary night. He was completely unaware that every passenger in the car was the soul of the mother and daughter who were killed by him on a rainy night. They watched his unimproved performances more than three hundred times in the dark, waiting for a sincere confession. It wasn't until the first seven nights, when the soaked mother took the girl into the car, that he saw the truth in the broken mirror - all the "living" days were just an atonement execution ground arranged in a seven-second revolving door. When he finally trembles and says "I'm sorry," eternal punishment has already begun: he will carry all the souls he has hurt until the last one forgives him. And the "loophole" that the girl secretly planted became the only glimmer of light in the darkness. This is a story about "selective amnesia". We all have nights we don't want to remember, mistakes we all pretend didn't happen. But there are no trash cans in the underworld. All "forget it" will be recorded, and all "no one saw it anyway" will become evidence in court. When Lao Wang finally said the words "I'm sorry," he discovered that his deepest fear was not ghosts, but that he finally saw his true self.

Before my grandfather died, he left no house or savings. He only gave him a rusty copper money sword, a manuscript written in blood, and one sentence: "What our family guards is not the tomb, but the door. When the door opens, Chang'an will wake up." I thought he was talking nonsense. Until the Tailing archaeological team dug up a gold needle inscribed with "Made by Li Chunfeng", and the tail of the needle actually had my grandfather's name - Zhao Shouling. That night, bells rang out from five Tang imperial tombs at the same time. The last time the Five Tombs sang together was the night before the Anshi Rebellion. I opened the "Secret Records of Kanyu of the Five Tombs" left behind by my grandfather. There was a warning written in blood on the title page: "The Five Tombs cannot be fully opened, otherwise the soul of the Tang Dynasty will be born and Chang'an will reappear." At this moment, the archaeological team sent another photo of the newly cleaned stone carvings - my name was engraved on it, and it was signed in the 22nd year of Zhenguan, 648 AD. More than 1,300 years ago, Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang predicted that I would come. Qiaoling, Jingling, Guangling, Huiling, Tailing, five imperial mausoleums, five Feng Shui tokens, a shocking layout that lasts for thousands of years. I was forced to get involved in this game that spanned time and space, only to find that the so-called "Feng Shui Master Family" was just an identity that had been reincarnated for thousands of years - each generation of Zhao Shouling was the reincarnation of the same soul. What I want to do is not to protect, but to make a choice that can change history after a thousand years.

In 2035, geological disasters occur frequently around the world. The China-led "Nuwa Project" dispatched former aerospace engineer Xie Shouzhong to drive the "Pangu" to drill in the Mariana Trench. When the depth exceeded 12,000 meters, the drill bit pierced a layer of biological horny "eggshell" - the earth was actually the egg that gave birth to the silicon-based giant beast, and the earthquake was just the giant beast turning over. After the behemoth awakened, it did not attack, but broadcast to the world through geological resonance. The Chinese team transformed "Pangu" into a translator, and AI deciphered the first sentence: "Your children are also my children." The beast showed a 4.6 Billion-year account book: The resources consumed by humans in 200 years have exceeded the total natural loss of the earth in the previous 4.5 Billion years. The compensation it demands is not resources, but an end to matricide. Humanity chooses to correct itself. China proposes "nanoscale compensation": trillions of nanorobots injected into the earth's crust to repair damaged rock formations and convert the behemoth's silicon-based metabolites into clean energy. Xie Shouzhong drove the "Pangu" to complete the final drill and implanted a chip engraved with "A Community of a Shared Future for Mankind" into the beast's nerves. The chip was directly connected to his consciousness, and he was surprised to find that the giant beast wanted to use human technology to split itself into billions of "micro-earth spirits" to coexist with China's infrastructure: city foundations, submarine optical cables, and high-speed rail tracks have all become its "organs." Humans and behemoths share neural networks, the behemoths' heartbeats power the surface, and human factories provide nutrients to the behemoths. Humans build schools, factories, and residences inside giant beasts. In the end, humans and beasts coexist harmoniously and jointly maintain a community with a shared future for mankind.
