Lost God

Zhao Wenchuan only changed one word. "The bride has two" became "the bride has two birds". That night, the printer spit out a red wedding card that didn't belong to any document. The manuscripts, backups, and even the memories of my colleagues began to prove: there was always only "bird" in this article, not "two". Then, a wordless book drags him into the story. At the end of the long street, two sedan chairs competed to enter the same door. Both brides are real, both marriage certificates are real, but only one name can be left in the marriage certificate. Before dawn, the one that was not written into the original book will grow feathers under the gaze of everyone and become the legendary Rakshasa bird. Only then did Zhao Wenchuan realize that the contradictory myths and legends in ancient books were not misremembered by the ancients. Every version was once a living part of the human world. As for the official history, only one is willing to stay. He couldn't change his life out of thin air, he could only verify and pursue it, expose the flaws in the lie that described people as monsters, and then cross it out with his own hands. But every time he finished a story, he had to do one final proofreading - to delete his name. The story will remember the ending, and the world will remember the people who were saved. No one will remember he came. Until later, in a story that everyone should forget about him, someone called his name.
