The old locust tree weeps its blood, and the turtle pond locks its soul. When living creatures become sacrifices to suppress evil spirits, who will protect these resentful spirits who have been trapped for thousands of years?
Urban young man Chen Qinghe returned to his hometown for a funeral, but before his grandfather passed away, he received the blood-stained "Essentials of the Earth" and the trembling compass. The seven living animal Feng Shui bureaus guard not the auspiciousness, but the evil that can swallow up the whole town - a century-old locust tree oozes juice like human blood, there is a black shadow that can drag people to drowning at the bottom of the black turtle pool, the koi in the red mist incites the yin fire that makes people spontaneously combust... Every town object is a seal, and it is also a time bomb that can explode at any time.
What's even more frightening is that there seem to be traces of human manipulation behind these changes. There is a murderous intention hidden under the elegant smile of the mysterious Mr. Wu. Uncle Ninth's calloused hands hold the truth about the bloody ritual of that year. In Lin Xiaoyue's scientific instruments, the beating data is gradually distorted into unexplainable metaphysical symbols.
When the tablets in the ancestral hall collapse and the earth's veins are about to completely lose control, Chen Qinghe must make a choice between protection and destruction: inherit his grandfather's cruel secret technique of sacrificing living animals, or risk becoming the enemy of the entire world and rewrite the bloody contract that has lasted for hundreds of years? And are those imprisoned town objects prisoners who need to be rescued, or demons waiting to bite back?
