Weird Things in Mengzhai

Summary of the story: Scholar Su Mo loses his love Xu Rou and is lured into a trap by Lei Heng, the master of Dream Weaver Studio. Dream Weaver uses "resurrecting" Xu Rou's dream creation as bait to lure Su Mo into becoming a "dream matchmaker" that provides high-quality "dream elements", but in fact it puts him in a sweet and cruel cage, constantly squeezing out the strong emotions caused by his regrets. Su Mo was addicted to fantasy at first, but soon discovered that the "resurrected" Xu Rou was perfect but empty and strange, and his own soul was gradually depleted due to constant being sucked out. After witnessing the tragic end of other dream media (Can Mengyuan) and receiving a warning from the mysterious dream returner Yun Zhi, he began to awaken. Struggling between his obsession with the phantom and his desire to survive, Su Mo struggled to resist. He unexpectedly obtained a fragment of the sorcery chapter "The Record of Mirrors and Bones: The Opening Chapter" that was suspected to be closely related to him, and through this he got a glimpse of part of the truth about the power of Mengweizhai and Lei Heng's ongoing terrible secret about Xu Rou. However, snooping leads to exposure. Su Mo was closely monitored and hunted by Mengwei Zhai. He must join hands with Yun Zhi (and other possible allies) whose identity is a mystery and who has their own purposes. At the junction of dreams and reality, he must deal with the cunning and powerful Lei Heng and his five subordinates...
