Official Description (Ad Blurb)

“Ziji Liu, a native of Nanyang, is a famous person with good moral character. After hearing about this, he plans to go there.”

"During the reign-period Taiyuan of the Jin dynasty there lived in Wu‑ling a certain fisherman. One day, as he followed the course of a stream, he became unconscious of the distance he had traveled. All at once, he came upon a grove of blossoming peach trees that lined either bank for hundreds of paces..."

For thousands of years, countless travelers have lost in the mountains, looking for the legendary paradise.

They lingered, lost their way, or died soon after.

In the description they left: It seems to be a perfect utopia.

But if this utopia is eternal, is it not another form of hell?

What is the price for the extinct Hosha kingdom, which possessed the secret of immortality that even the emperor could not hope for?

Peach blossoms wither, dead bones are all over the ground, and equinox flowers wait a thousand years to bloom

The nine hundred souls left here are longing for the arrival of the "Man for Flower Burial“.

Shuang Hua in the daytime looks forward to going to the outside world with you and taking a look at the endless stream of horses and carriages.

Shuang Hua at night hopes you bury everything…

"Can you take me to the outside world?"

The goddess in charge of the sacrifices is said to be the descendant of the mountain god who guided villagers to take refuge in the Peach Blossom Spring.

She is gentle and kind, curious about the outside world.

“The rules of the day do not apply to the night.”

A mysterious girl appears at night and has the same appearance as Shuang Hua in the daytime, but their temperaments are quite different.

Sometimes indifferent and noble, sometimes charming and affectionate.

She is the master of the Peach Blossom Spring and has the power of omniscience and omnipotence.

An amnestic girl in the village that looks related to those mysteries.

A gentle widow during the daytime, and an intrepid blade master at night.

A kind village head during the daytime, always hungry at night.

He is a hunter and butcher in the village who slaughtered the livestock.

A naughty kid in the village who like to play cricket fighting.

Japanese-style impasto style, the pursuit of the ultimate fineness.
