At midnight, a white fox appears, and three bloody cases follow.
Lin Xiaotiao, a down-on-his-luck descendant of constables, slams a hand on the table: “I’ve got this in the bag!” But his ancestor, Huo Wulai, dangling from a roof beam, pours cold water on his confidence: “Dear grandson, you can’t even undo a vengeful ghost’s belt.”
A stubborn storyteller meets her sharp-tongued ancestor.
In a haunted house, he kicks a ghost away while she seals its soul. In a graveyard, he tears up a talisman while she hangs upside down to break the formation.
Behind a thousand-year-old curse lies the secret of why no Huo family man lives past twenty-five. As it turns out, the rebellious ancestor of this demon-hunting clan turned herself into a living coffin to suppress evil long ago.
