The Secret Case of Black Fox Cave

The Black Fox Cave in Daheishan, Longtan Township, is a forbidden area regarded as the "Tiansha Cave" by the Yi villagers. Liu Facai, a bachelor, accidentally discovered the body of an unknown man while chopping a broom. He was timid and crawled to report the crime. Zhao Rong, deputy director of the County Public Security Bureau, led a team to investigate deep into the mountains, only to discover that the body contained an ancient totem jade pendant of the Yi people, and the cause of death was highly consistent with an unsolved disappearance of a herb collector ten years ago. As the investigation progresses, rumors in the village, strange warnings from the Yi elders, and secret obstructions from unknown forces follow one after another. Liu Facai is forced to be involved in the investigation because he is familiar with the mountainous terrain. From the initial fear of evading, to repeatedly discovering key clues based on life experience; Zhao Rong, while solving the mystery, uncovers his secret connection with the unsolved case ten years ago, as well as a deep emotional entanglement in his heart. The cases are nested layer by layer, and the cultural taboos of the Yi people are intertwined with the struggle of human nature. When the truth is finally revealed, not only the bad guys are punished, but Liu Facai also gets rid of his marginal status as an "old bachelor" and gains respect and love.
