The Seven Surnames of Wangchuan

The owner of the clock shop in the old county town always stared at the stopped wall clock - he forgot about the shadow-patterned girl he saw yesterday, but he remembered the beating blood-red pattern on her hair. Chen Mo's terminal can analyze the memory code, but it doesn't understand why the reflection in the lens is always half a beat slower than reality; A Yao's memory-keeping paper figurine hides the blood of the seven surnames, and when it burns, taboos that Grandpa Shoushan has never said will emerge; and the moment Lin Wei's scissors cut the shadow pattern, the whimper of the devoured person can always be heard. When the water of the Lethe River begins to flow backwards, all the shadows are plotting to escape from the main body. "Descendants of the seventh surname, it's time to complete the contract." The two-color pupils of the ferryman Subo were half the blood of the awakened Chaos Body, and half the tears of the eighth surname ferryman. They must break into the Memory Temple of the Crystal Realm before their memories are polluted - where the truth of the former civilization is suspended, the contract scissors that balance the two worlds are hidden, and there are secrets that the shadow owner dare not let people remember: the so-called Chaos Body is just the collective obsession of the forgotten. (When your shadow begins to lie, when memory becomes a tradable commodity, the descendants of the Seven Surnames hold three keys: the code of the terminal, the shadow pattern of the scissors, and the residual warmth of the paper man.)
