Destiny in Your Hands

The Last Paper Effigy Maker

Lin Xiaoman, a fine arts graduate, is forced to take over her grandfather's paper effigy shop on his deathbed, with a warning: "The last paper effigy maker must guard what shouldn't be forgotten." Just as she plans to sell it, the Republic-era student effigy she made at midnight suddenly moves—begging her to stop the demolition of the old ancestral hall. Then, Zhou Mingyuan, the "rascal" who vanished for ten years, returns to claim a "debt": her grandfather owed him an effigy to find his missing sister. When Lin is forced to pick up the bamboo strips, she uncovers the shop's secret: every effigy holds an unfulfilled wish, and her "guarding" is actually "repaying" for her grandfather. Even more terrifying—her effigies start "choosing" their owners: the elderly neighbor wants to find her late grandson, a white-collar worker seeks her lost childhood, and Zhou's sister? She's hiding in the shop's attic! The last page of her grandfather's diary has a chilling line: "Xiaoman, you're not my granddaughter. You're the one I made?"

The God Descended, Unexpectedly Sacrificed

Bai Mu, the god of Qingqiu, transforms into a fragile scholar to experience mortal life and stumbles into Taoyuan Village, which is holding a rain-summoning sacrifice due to a severe drought. The villagers, seeing him as an outsider, immediately declare him the "chosen offering" and tie him to the altar. Only Xiao Tang, the girl Bai Mu once saved, risks everything to protect him—she doesn’t know that the man she’s defending is the god of wind and rain. Bai Mu also never expected that his "mortal experience" would turn into a "sacrifice" farce, nor that he would fall in love with this girl who dares to defy the entire village for him. On the night of the sacrifice, as thunder strikes, Bai Mu’s divine power awakens, and heavy rain instantly soaks the parched land. When the villagers kneel and worship, Bai Mu takes Xiao Tang’s hand and says: "The one I want to sacrifice for has never been heaven—it’s you."
