"The Pavilion of Strange Pets·Stories of Mountains and Seas"
In 1936, thick fog shrouded Xiafei Road in Shanghai. The body of a Japanese businessman was hung under a street lamp. In his pocket was a bronze door knocker engraved with three concentric circles - from the antique shop on the corner that specialized in "exotic pets".
Chu Nianyao was an ordinary female student until a golden three-eye mark appeared on her forehead and a name she had never heard of appeared on her palm: "C No. 19·Chu Niangui". At the same time, Ayi, a barefoot Wa girl, broke in with an injured Gu Eagle. The people who chased her were the same ones who killed Shopkeeper Feng - the traitor codenamed "Thrush".
When the three siblings met underground at Hongkou Academy, they discovered that the spiritual beasts in "The Classic of Mountains and Seas" were not legends. Spiritual veins are alive, spirit beasts are not pets, and true protection is never a sacrifice - it is to be carried alive.
"Thirty years from now, I'll be back."
This is not an ordinary novel about gods and monsters - there are Lu Xun's inscriptions, Du Yuesheng's walnuts, Pingtan's three-stringed spiritual sound, and the call of the Wa wooden drum. When the Night Parade of Hundred Ghosts starts and Yamata no Orochi awakens, the three young men use their blood and choice to protect China's last spiritual vein.
The story of Shan Hai Jing has no end. It's just begun.
