Tian Mi, a makeup artist at a funeral home, has a secret - she can hear the corpse's last words. When the nameless corpses brought strange murmurs of "the door opened" and "catch the shadow", the handsome Taoist priest Xin Ye broke into her life with cold incense and spells. A large-scale escaping syndrome breaks out in the city. The eyes of the patients are empty, and their souls seem to have been pulled away by invisible hands.
Xin Ye's sandalwood barrier blocked the collision of shadows, and also revealed the secret of the butterfly birthmark on Tian Mi's neck: she is the judge's pen tool spirit that has been lost for hundreds of years in the underworld. Mo Wuchang, a man in black robe who has tampered with the book of life and death and extracted the fate of life, is trying to use the soul-leaving souls to open the passage of reincarnation and release the ancient resentful spirits.
From the whispers in the funeral home to the illusion at the bottom of the lake, from the fireworks on earth to the glimmer of the netherworld, Tian Mi and Xin Ye, a pen-keeper who has been keeping pens for hundreds of years, used the judge's pen as a contract. In the storm at the intersection of yin and yang, they wrote their two-way redemption and human bond in the book of life and death.
