Synopsis

[Urban life]+ [treasure hunting]+ [cultivation]+ [business warfare] People don’t get rich without a windfall, and horses don’t grow fat without night fodder. This is the tearful tale of Jin Xin, a man whose Five Elements are short on gold. The Japanese gold ship sank in Lord’s Temple on Poyang Lake, the Bermuda Triangle of the East, but no one has been able to salvage it. A yellow weasel that has gained humanlike powers steals souls and asks passersby for a seal of recognition: “Fellow, do I look human to you?” Is there a dragon pearl at the heart of the Yangtze, spat out by a water dragon? Is Shi Dakai’s treasure on the Dadu River or at Dadu Crossing? … Jin Xin, the Taoist treasure hunter, will uncover these ancient mysteries one by one.
