In 1932, undercurrents surged in Jinling City. Zhou Lingzhi, the only son of the Zhou family, walked in the black and white paths as a forensic doctor. When Qin Lanling, a childhood sweetheart, returns with the relics of Zhou's father who has been missing for ten years, the two are forced to be involved in a series of mysterious cases: a floating corpse in the Qinhuai River contains gold in its mouth, eighteen bronze figures in an ancient temple in Zijin Mountain weeping blood, a famous actress in a grand theater turned into bones in full view... Each case points to the lost fragment of "Tui Bei Tu". In this era of steam locomotives and soul-calling flags, Zhou Lingzhi must use a scalpel to cut through the fog, and in the dark, a pair of embroidered shoes embroidered with mandalas are waiting for them to reveal a shocking secret spanning three dynasties.
