Before her mother fell to her death, she drew a Seven Killings star chart on a laboratory whiteboard. The margin call lines for thirty listed companies were arranged like a moon-devouring formation.
Three years later, Lin Shen is a food delivery rider. One early morning, he accepts an order for “Yinshi-hour vegetarian food delivery to the 88th-floor Financial Sky Hub,” and gets caught up in an occult organization hidden within the world of capital: the Moon Eater.
A bronze disc conceals a star chart; a vegetarian meal lays out a covert formation.
Living jiangshi generated by blockchain, evil-suppressing anchor chains forged from stock charts, and a quantum feng shui compass left behind by his mother...
When capital dons a Taoist robe, code becomes a dragon-slaying sword.
Lin Shen must do more than unravel the Moon Eater. He must also face the language-consciousness System his mother once activated.
This time, he isn’t the one trying to understand language. Language is trying to understand him.
