Synopsis
Guardians of the Forbidden Relics
The Exodus to Taiwan
As the final battles of the Chinese Civil War rage across the mainland, a secret convoy flees under the cover of darkness—not with soldiers or civilians, but with the last remnants of an empire. Hidden beneath sacks of grain, buried within crates marked for ordinary cargo, over a thousand irreplaceable artifacts embark on a perilous journey, their fate unknown.
Among them:
The Tibetan Dragon Sutra—a sacred text written in gold, rumored to contain lost knowledge or a hidden code.
The jade Pixiu guardians—legendary protectors of wealth and fortune, now symbols of a dynasty’s last stand.
The Chenghua Chicken Cup—a delicate Ming Dynasty porcelain masterpiece, so rare it would one day be worth millions—yet destined to vanish into history.
These artifacts are no longer just relics; they are power, leverage, and national identity. Communist forces hunt them as symbols of ideological victory. Nationalist factions see them as proof of legitimacy in exile. Foreign operatives seek them for wealth and influence. And in the chaos of war, some are stolen, some are lost—and some disappear forever.
From the treacherous mountain passes of Yunnan to the lawless docks of Wuzhou, from ambushes in the jungle to a final desperate escape across the South China Sea, betrayal, deception, and loss mark every step of their exodus. The Chenghua Chicken Cup vanishes, swallowed by the chaos. The convoy is hunted, its path blocked, its mission sabotaged. And as the last ship fights its way toward Taiwan, the guardians of these forbidden relics must make an impossible choice:
What must be sacrificed?
What must be preserved?
And at what cost?
In Taiwan, a new chapter begins—not just for a people in exile, but for the treasures that now define their past. But history is never truly safe.
