Chinese Red Thread Novels & Stories

Cass's translation, which she qualified with three pages of methodological caveats, was: To the one who holds the thread when the thread is longest. I had read that sentence many times since Cass completed the translation in the second year after the northeast room was found. To the one who holds the thread when the thread is longest. The thread the correction ran on. The bloodline thread, the Greymoor line from before the covenant through my father's refusal and my grandmother's farmhouse to me. The network thread, from the original covenant design through the century of suppression through the rite and the chord to the Greater Network being built now. The thread of people who had contribut

My collection has been given a prominent space, and several people are already gathered around, discussing my work quietly. “Iris, this is extraordinary,” Hunter murmurs as we walk slowly through the exhibition space. “You’ve outdone yourself.” A warm glow of pride spreads through me. I glance over at my star piece, which I’ve titled “Red Thread”. It’s an image of a hand tangled in a thin red thread. The thread wraps so tightly around some of the fingers that they’re beginning to turn purple. In some spots, the thread cuts straight into the skin, beading red blood along the surface of the palm—specifically where the “life line” is. The thread eventually moves off the canvas altogether, indic

I don't know what happened, but I know Ivar is different, not as proud as before and I am curious to know the reasons for this change. As soon as the two were inside the circle, they were enveloped in several electric threads, but it seems they didn't cause physical damage. The red thread appears on Sophia's and Ivar's wrists and it is perfectly visible that they are connected. The thread has several flaws, but it still exists. Its glow is not so intense, but it is definitely strong, because if it weren't, it would have already broken. Sophia raised her hand and looked at the thread, her expression of surprise and enchantment. It was surely the first time she had experienced something like t

I wait till the two of them are gone before turning back to the red thread vendor. “Can I have that one piece?” I point at another piece that had grabbed my attention earlier but I had taken in extra care not to make it obvious. It’s two piece of silk thread, black and red, woven together beautifully and complimenting the other and with a tiny golden bell ornament at one end. Something about it calls out to me and although I do not subscribe to all this, it won’t hurt to just have a fancy piece of it sitting around in my jewelry box. ***

Threads, like tendrils of shadow, materialize around me and my body cramps involuntarily, as if I am suddenly drowning in dry ice. She begins to pull the threads, slowly at first, and then faster and faster. It hurts, it hurts so much. I try to scream, but my voice catches in my throat, not even a sound can escape my lips. The threads start to turn red. Blood red. Her grin widens and I realize that these are not threads of fabric – they are threads of my blood.

Once they were all collected, she held them and stood up, "Madam Yu, do you have a red thread?" "A red thread?" Yu Meilin gave it a thought and then suddenly started laughing, "Yes, I do. I bought a lot when my husband passed away but didn't use it all. Do you need it?" "Yes." Looking at the jade beads in her hand, Maria’s eyes were filled with joy, "These beads are of excellent quality. It would be a shame if they were to be dropped and damaged again. I know how to braid; I can string the beads back up. As long as they're not intentionally cut with a knife, they should not break again."

Behind them, the group of red bugs swarmed up. “That’s troublesome!” Claudia looked grim now. She pulled the thread tight with her hands. The threads were super powerful—their surfaces were covered with deadly energy. No one really knew what they were made of. Anyway, under Claudia’s control, the two threads became extremely scary. Patterns emerged from them and barged into the insects. “Switch!” Claudia bellowed before the red thread turned into a large web, trapping the two golden bugs. In the next second, they were captured by the web, unable to break free for now.

Mu Zi lowered her head, and replied without any good humor, "Do you think anyone is as nervous as you? Asking for gifts in the middle of the night!" Murong Cheng was scolded, but his thin lips curled up in pleasure. She hadn't braided it for Mu Zenin. So this hand rope, is unique. ...... The room was silent. Mu Zi slowly retrieved her memory, and the movements in her hand gradually became skillful. When she was braiding, her heart was quite unfavorable. Now in the hands of this method of braiding, using three red rope, if braided into a lover's knot, signifies three lifetimes, three lifetimes.

It looked similar to the Moon Goddess's red thread of fate. Sharina frowned as she stared down at the unusual color of the thread binding us together. “The bond must have been formed,” Sarah said, since a third party couldn't see the thread. “It's... purple thread,” Sharina blurted. “Purple?” Sarah's expression hardened as she turned to me. “That means you never broke your bond with Emily.” “I told you I wasn't going to,” I cut in. “Malric–” “What does the purple thread mean?” I interrupted again.

She was about to question his hurried steps when she recalled his talk about The Red Thread. Zara lifted her hand to study the line. She noticed how it looked shinier in the moon and how it was starting to appear shorter and shorter.
