In the late autumn of 1915 in Shanghai, the ancient well cracked and the evil paper man named Aya emerged from the well wrapped in the stench of two hundred years of siltation. She is the life-killing blade released by Zhou Xue, who was disguised as an orphan and sent to Jiang Mianyue's Tingyu Tea House - this psychic embroiderer, the requiem pattern on her wrist can actually burn her paper body, and a drop of tear can even more magically heal the old wounds in her soul.
Aya originally wanted to take Jiang Mianyue's life, but in the night when she was cutting paper and chewing on fabric, she caught a glimpse of the Manchu text "Save Me" on her embroidered handkerchief, which resonated with the mark of the word "cheap" on the back of her neck. It turned out that she was a Manchu noblewoman who was buried alive, and the hands of Jiang Mianyue's late husband's pocket watch were always pointed in her direction.
When Shen Lintang's poisonous plan, Zhou Xue's corpse oil rouge, and the Eastern Onmyoji's spiritual refining array dragged the two people into the abyss, the evil paper man put away his claws, and the psychic embroiderer pricked his fingertips - this entanglement that started with exploitation has long since become a redemption through flesh and blood. When the ancient well is reopened, the red paper lotus reflects the double shadow, which is the final chapter of their joint efforts to mend the gap between yin and yang.
