In the end of the Dharma era when spiritual energy is exhausted and evil spirits take advantage of the evil thoughts of human nature, Lin Xi, the last descendant of the Xingyuan Lin family, who is burdened with the curse of "not being able to live past thirty", lives in a shabby antique shop and struggles to survive. In a late-night conspiracy, he was forced to awaken the ancestral bronze Luogeng and Xueqin ancient jade, but unexpectedly alerted Su Ye, the amnesia-suppressing tomb beast that had guarded the Lin family for thousands of years. One person and one beast formed a life-and-death alliance under the constraints of a blood contract, using the secret of stargazing on the verge of extinction to fight against the evil spirits hiding in the shadows of modern cities - the electronic spirits spawned by live streaming rewards, the tide of resentful spirits spread by subway signals, the memory devourers parasitic on 5G base stations...
> When a gangster in the ghost market used the Lin family's relics as bait to push him into the Hundred Ghost Tower, and when Shen Xinghe, a new technological upstart, presented him with a weird pocket watch that could scan star maps, Lin Xi gradually realized that he had become a key piece in a thousand-year chess game. Only by guarding one's heart with a spark that burns away all the filth can one be able to light the last solitary lamp of vigil for this collapsed world in the Shura field of human nature.
