During the rainy season in Shanghai in 1998, Jin Lei, a senior student in the Department of Literature and Art at Fudan University, was regarded as an outlier because he was born with double pupils and studied folk magic. He suffered setbacks in his studies, work and relationship. The stone lion in the City God's Temple suddenly wept blood, arousing the black turbidity and the soul of the guilty. Jin Lei saw through the magic soul lock at a glance, and met the policewoman Qin Min who came to investigate.
Jin Lei relied on his ancestral double-eye notes and exorcism skills to rescue the pilgrims who were harmed by the soul-locking talisman, and tracked down Wang Guixiang, an old lady who practiced northern Jiangsu witchcraft and embroidery skills, and chased him to Luojing Town to find out the truth: Wang Guixiang, in revenge for being expelled that year, teamed up with his son Li Jianguo, the person in charge of the reconstruction of the old city of the Town God's Temple, to use the five-poison poison and the soul-locking talisman to harm people, hoping to arouse the resentment of the underground sinking city. Jin Lei and Qin Min teamed up to break the poison and kill Wang Guixiang, and Li Jianguo confessed.
Jin Lei formed an exorcism team, partnered with a master of folklore, a talented painter, a poison expert, and a technical hacker, and became a special consultant to the police. Then he took over the Qingpu Mao River water poison case, and a fisherman died mysteriously. It was found out that Chen Tianxiong used the Shencheng resentful fish poison to harm people in the name of developing a tourist area in an attempt to control Shencheng's resentment. The team broke the formation, destroyed the Gu, and killed Chen Tianxiong. . . . . .
