Mountains and Rivers Ashes: the Mysterious Traces of Cangguan Dragon Veins

A severed dragon vein, a secret map that can change dynasties, a life and death situation that spans a thousand years. On a rainy night in 2023, the headless stone statue in Cangguan Old Mansion suddenly oozed blood, and the word "amnesty" appeared on it. Lin Yanqiu, editor of the Department of History, was forced to open a bronze box that had been passed down from generation to generation, and was involved in a shocking mystery that began in the late Sui Dynasty. The copy of the "Mountains and Rivers of the State" in the box was actually marked with the "Patricide Place" of Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty and the "Valley of Hidden Soldiers" of Li Yuan. His grandfather's dying words, "Protect the picture, don't trust the history," pushed him into a triple whirlpool: the hidden thread of Li Tang's seizure of the throne, the aftermath of Yang Guang's tyranny, Yuhua culture, and the crazy pursuit of immortality. In order to repair the broken dragon veins and prevent the outbreak of evil spirits in Guanzhong, Lin Yanqiu teamed up with astrologers Su Wanxing and Li Tang to spy on Pei Yuanshao. They were shocked every step of the way through the secret passage of Gutong Pass, the Persian caravan in Chang'an Ghost Market, the Five Elements Formation in Yaowang Valley in Zhongnan Mountain, and the bloody battlefield at Tianjin Bridge in Luoyang. Yang Guang's "Slaying the Dragon Vein" was not a tyranny, but to prevent the prophecy of "the world is dominated by women"? Is Li Shimin's Xuanwumen incident related to the missing picture? My grandfather guarded the mausoleum for sixty years. What was guarding the mausoleum was not the imperial mausoleum, but "those things" that crawled out of the ground? Lin Yanqiu must make a choice between "renewing the dragon's veins with blood and being trapped in the barrier all his life" or "letting the evil spirit awaken and leaving no one inhabited for thousands of miles". The shadow guard's magic of immortality, Wagang's remnant's secret assassinations, and the court's intrigues make every decryption a life-or-death gamble.
