In this vast world, fate always seems to be in constant cycles, and we will eventually meet the person we once met among the multitude.
For thousands of years, in this endless wasteland, we will neither meet you sooner nor later.
Hatsuki used to be a female ghost, and her name was derived from an ancient harp.
When she was still alive, living in a chaotic time, she died in war in a strange land and has since become a ghost.
Later, she met a young monk named Nameless. This eminent monk is a very pious person, and he has been cultivating in the human world for many years. Nameless possesses an innate intelligence, and despite his young age, he has already shown noble qualities. He had the ambition to study Buddhism in depth, but in turbulent times, his body was scattered all over the place due to successive wars, so he chose to transcend the souls of those who had unfortunately died.
After leaving the mountains without a name, he traveled all over the place, exploring many different places. Eventually, he came to a remote mountain village and had a chance encounter with Hatsuki.
Nameless tries all sorts of ways to guide her, but to no avail, and begs Nameless to take her back to her hometown so she can die peacefully.
However, on the way back to her hometown, her soul could not find a place to rest, so Nameless decided to place her in the guqin early moon that he had with him. In the process, she discovers that Jean has been abandoned by herself, so she places it in a corner that no one knows. Surprisingly, this guqin is made of spiritual wood, and it listens to nameless chanting every day, which gives it spirituality. When it was put into the soul of the female ghost, it actually made the koto and the female ghost become one.
From then on, Nameless would play the qin every day, and the qin would incarnate as a woman and start dancing, but eventually Nameless did not control it, leading to the failure of the practice. So, he poured all his thoughts into the piano. However, it is precisely because of his deep emotional bond with the piano that his skills are even better. The music he plays seems to reach the sky and reach the sky. Hades heard the beautiful sound of the harp in the underworld and quickly snatched it.
After the early moon was separated from her lover, Jean's voice became hoarse, and no one could play her again, but in the silence of the night, she sang sadly every night.
Subsequently, Satsuki's soul was separated from Qin and fell into reincarnation, but she eventually destroyed the noble character of the high monk and received the punishment she deserved.
Unbeknownst to her, Nameless learns that it was Hades who stole the piano after disowning her. So, on the day of the (he four sounds) that occurs once every three hundred years, he rode the wind into the Yellow Spring and entered the underworld by the way.
Unexpectedly, in the underworld, the Meng Po clan blocked the nameless way forward. She hated it, and even if the living walked towards the Yellow Spring, she would not allow him to enter the underworld. Faced with this situation, Nameless had no choice but to end Meng Po's life.
He entered the underworld to look for Ah Cha, hoping to get a harp, but unfortunately, Ah Cha extracted his soul and turned his body into a ghost cha of the underworld, known as Zhao Yan.
Since then, this world has no more names, only a former Zhao official remains, who shuttles between the underworld and the human world, pointing the way for lost souls and helping them to be freed from their pain and return to the human world as soon as possible.
Hatsuki is an affectionate woman, and although she will be snubbed by people in every life after her reincarnation, she is lonely in every life, and her fate is tragic in every life, but she prefers to endure endless pain.
In her life, she had an encounter with an old monk. The old monk told her that to solve all her predicaments, she could choose to become a monk. But if she chooses not to leave home, then there is still a brief fate between her and Nameless. In the end, she decided to stay at home, hoping only to have a rare fate with the person she loved.
Later, the old monk gave her a guqin named Early Moon and told her that it would help her find Nameless.
In this life, her name is Ah Chun, and she has the ability to observe black snow since she was a child, and every time black snow falls, it can bring bad consequences. That year, her fate changed when her father sent her father to study in a prison – she was imprisoned inside a high wall. As an adult, she became a police officer and met Zhao on the street, and together they witnessed that snow-covered night.
When she met Zhao Yan again, she realized that she had passed away, and the black snow she saw for the last time was actually a symbol of her life.
Her soul wanders in her former room, and she recounts the story between Nameless and Early Moon to Zhao Yan. She knew that Zhao Yan was nameless, but Zhao Yan had forgotten the past, and in the end, she gave the piano to Zhao Yan.
She wasn't sure if she would be able to see him again in the next life, but it was worth it for her to pay for generations of pain just to see Nameless again.
Just as in the Land of Yellow Springs, Meng Po asked Nameless at the last moment of her life, once you enter the underworld, your cultivation will turn into nothingness, do you deserve to be imprisoned in the underworld forever, just for a harp?
Nameless told her that it was worth it.
The moon in the morning eventually misleads Nameless, and even if it enters reincarnation, it does not have a good ending.
Nameless always remembers the past for the moon in the early morning.
In Soul Ferry, there are countless female characters who are at the mercy of fate, whether they are ghosts or gods, and feel helpless. Their fate is always determined after separation and reunion, and the final result is often disappointing and regretful. However, since parting is the arrangement of fate, instead of struggling in pain, it is better to face it calmly, which is both pain and experience, and because it is worth it, so be willing.
