Deep in the remote mountains of Jiangnan lies a place called Wuyaling.
Wuyaling is actually the name of a village. No one knows when it got that name. All anyone knows is that the village lies on a mountain ridge between two great mountains, its slopes riddled with sheer cliffs.
They say Wuyaling is home to vicious criminals sentenced to death. To evade the law, they all hide on the ridge.
The public security authorities know that many wanted criminals are hiding there, yet they dare not come to arrest them. Over time, the place has become a haven for fugitives.
The owner of Wuyaling is Fang Zige, whom everyone calls the village chief. No one from outside the ridge has ever seen his true face.
In short, no one knows what Wuyaling really is. All anyone can offer is the rough outline above.
