In 2025 on the southeastern coast, funeral home cleaner Liang Jiu and soul-searching anchor Li Qing were forced to cooperate due to a "corpse fraud" incident. The corpses twitching in the morgue, the urns making strange noises, the remains of sunken ships hiding secrets... Behind every strange incident, science can always reveal the truth - cinnabar generates poisonous gas when exposed to moisture, metal expands and contracts with heat, and experimental chemicals left behind by the Japanese army are responsible.
Liang Jiu's Maoshan heritage and Li Qing's bloodline of creditors gradually bring them into contact with deeper conspiracies: from the "life-extending technique" used by MLM organizations to control people's hearts, to the evidence of Japanese military germ warfare that has been dusty for centuries, to the hidden transnational organ trading chain in funeral parlors. The two were caught between science and metaphysics, only to discover that the most dangerous "ghost" is always hidden in the greed of living people.
——There are no ghosts here, only the Shura Field of the Human Heart dressed in folk customs.
