Liang Zhi, a top modern game designer, traveled to ancient times and became an orphan who was exiled due to an unjust case. She was shocked to discover that the patterns of frequent weird and supernatural events in this world were exactly the same as the settings of the popular Chinese-style supernatural game Baigui Chess Game that she led and developed during her lifetime. The weaknesses of ghosts, the cracking of formations, and the salvation of spiritual bodies are all like carefully designed chessboards in a game.
Under no circumstances, Liang Zhi relied on his ultimate understanding of the "rules of the game" to regard every encounter with a ghost as a "solution". She uses the heaven and earth as her disk and all things as her children. Through layout, seduction, calculation of "qi eyes", and finding "breaking points", she accurately solves one after another supernatural events that even the local Taoist masters are helpless to deal with. In the process of surviving and solving puzzles, she met Xiao Jue, a former chess player with a mysterious identity who was also proficient in chess theory but was shackled. From the initial suspicion and testing, the two later joined forces in life and death chess games. They discovered that behind all supernatural events, there was an invisible big hand manipulating it. It seemed that someone wanted to turn the whole world into a dead game of sacrifice.
