Luo Chuan, a corpse fisherman from the Canglang River, took on a mysterious case - looking for a girl who had been thrown into the river for seven days but her body remained intact. When he sneaked into the Tiger Leaping Gorge with turbulent undercurrents, he found a female corpse wearing a moon-white cheongsam on the Ming Dynasty sacrificial stone steps: she had ancient coins in her lips, Buddhist beads wrapped around her wrists, and two blood-red carp swimming in her dark pupils. What's even more terrifying is that the string of green chalcedony beads is exactly the same as the one my mother wore when she sacrificed to the River God thirty years ago.

People drowned in the waterless land one after another in the ancient town. The victims' ankles were wrapped with blood-soaked black hair. When Luo Chuan followed the notes left by his father and went deep into the river bottom, he discovered that the so-called "River God Sacrifice" was actually a century-old blood contract between the Luo family's ancestors and the evil dragon——
