The Long River of Mysterious Veins

In ancient times, Zhuanxu consolidated the divine power, and Yu the Great cut down the buildings and sealed the underworld, setting an immortal seal for the human race. In the next thousand years, the seal will need to be strengthened regularly with the destiny of the common master of the world. Duke Zhou established rituals and music, and used civilized order as a seal to create an eternal foundation. However, as the Zhou Dynasty moved eastward and the royal power declined, the heavy responsibility of maintaining heaven and earth quietly fell on the shoulders of the Jin State, the last pillar of the Ji surname. Since Duke Wen of Jin, the century-old hegemony has condensed not only military power, but also the luck of the Ji family that guards the seal. Until the Jin Dynasty was about to fall, and the pillars were decayed. On a bloody night in the Imperial Ancestral Temple, Ji Hao, a young man guarding the temple, awakened with the mark of the black bird and heard the sound of the seal breaking. On the way to escape, he had to meet the guardian Jing Wu, and even discovered that Quan Qing Zhi Boyao had colluded with the ancient demon sect and wanted to use flooded Jinyang as a sacrifice to usurp the power of the world that was about to collapse. The earth's veins are the paper, hundreds of craftsmen are the ink, and love and hate are the pens. Ji Hao and Jing Wu, together with the Confucian scholar Ziyu who is aware of the current crisis, are forced to face the ultimate backlash that has come prematurely due to the disorder in the world. Not only do they have to find their way in the troubled times of the princes' conquests, but they also need to find a way to repair the eternal seal that has spanned thousands of years and is on the verge of collapse on the ruins of the civilization system. This is a generous tragic song in which a young man reforges his path at the rupture point in history under the shadow of gods and demons. It is also a magnificent epic about how civilization is passed down through flesh and blood and awakens in the long dark night.
