Seven hundred years ago, the "Dark Sun" came and the world was on the verge of destruction. The first-generation alliance leader signed a contract with "Heaven" on behalf of all living beings in the world, and pledged the lives of all descendants that have not yet happened in exchange for the power of "vowing to interfere with reality."
The original contract period was only three hundred years. Since then, every time there was a war, famine, or dynastic crisis, the rulers would renew the contract in the name of temporary measures, passing the cost on to more distant descendants. Hundreds of years later, people have been burdened with the national oath, military oath, debt deeds and status obligations left by their ancestors since birth.
Lu Zhaoye, a young man in the city, specializes in fulfilling the last wishes of the deceased and is known as the "sworn person". He has no household registration and no inheritance pattern that appears on everyone at birth, so he can inherit the oath of losing his master.
The story begins with a dead man who has been buried three times.
Every time a dead person is buried, he will reappear in front of Lu Zhaoye's door the next day, holding a letter addressed to "Qingshi Village" in his hand. However, Qingshi Village does not exist in the maps, county annals, and everyone's memories. Lu Zhaoye traced the deceased's last wish and found that the county government had deleted the entire mining village from the history books to avoid compensation for the mining disaster, but retained the villagers' taxes and debts.
The sealed document deeper inside was signed by the name of his sister, Lu Tingdeng, who had been missing for twelve years.
