​Qilin Story Summary

There are two types of bronze mirrors in ancient times, one is vulgar mirror, which is an ordinary mirror, and the other is divine mirror, which people can use to enter another parallel space. Both Zhuang Zhou and Tao Yuanming were masters of such mirrors. Most of the people who own the magic mirror are the royal family and nobles. It is their privilege to have the magic mirror. They can freely enter and exit the other side of the world through the mirror.


Since the mirror is the door to the two worlds, it is extremely important to guard it, so a profession called "mirror guard" flourished. And the goggle guard with the strongest martial arts in the world is named Li Ah.

Princess Su E stole the best mirror in the palace, and fled to Li Ah's location. Li Ah accepted her request and became her goggle protector. This move became the root of all troubles later.

 

In order to recover the mirror, the emperor sent Luan Ba, the second killer in the world, to lead hundreds of killers out of Beijing to kill Su E and take back the mirror. He went on a killing spree along the way, killing most of the mirror guards and taking away most of the magic mirrors. His final goal is Li Ah, the world's number one killer and number one goggle guard.

Su E travels between two parallel worlds and brings backA pair of twin babies, apparently that's her on the other sideproducts of marriage. After he entrusted the child to Li A's upbringing, he disappeared again. Li Ah is obsessed with Su E and has no complaints about it.

 

Luan Ba's army attacked Li Ah's residence, and a fierce battle broke out between the two sides. As a result, Luan Ba fell into the maze arranged by Li Ah and the mirror caster Dou Shaoqing, and finally died.

Although the threat to the world on this side has been eliminated, serious turmoil has occurred in the world on the other side. When Su E returned for the last time, her clothes were covered in blood, as if she had experienced some murder. After making love with Li A for the last time, she drowned with her two children in her arms, and the magic mirror flew away overnight, and has never been heard from since. Li A forged a magic mirror by himself, trying to escape to the Utopian world, but was killed by the broken magic mirror the moment he entered the mirror. The great mirror caster just disappeared into the shadow of history.
