During the Republic of China, warlords fought and tomb robbing became common. Chen Jiuye is the shopkeeper of the Peking Antique Shop. He comes from a family of inauspicious enemies and is proficient in the secrets of Feng Shui.
One day, he unexpectedly received half a volume of "The Secret Records of Heavenly Officials", which triggered a struggle among various forces and forced him to return to the world.
He formed an alliance with Shen Yanzhi, an archaeologist who had returned from studying abroad, and worked together to crack the mechanism of the ancient tomb.
"Tianguan Milu" records the secret technique of gold-touching, which can identify dragon veins, break traps, and determine Feng Shui. It is the most valuable treasure of gold-touching school captains in the past dynasties.
Based on this secret record, Chen Jiuye repeatedly broke into strange tombs, from the blood coffin locking the dragon formation to the bronze ghost breaking the wall, each step was shocking.
While his peers were helpless, he was able to accurately find the door of life. The tomb robbing circle called him a "living compass."
As the investigation deepened, it was discovered that the ancient tomb was actually related to the mysterious organization "Xuanmen" and was involved in the top ten murder cases of the Republic of China.
Xuanmen manipulates Feng Shui in order to rewrite the fate of the country, and behind it is a shocking conspiracy of the Japanese army to invade China.
He and Shen Yanzhi drove the corpse clan from western Hunan to Heishui City in Mobei to reveal the true face of Xuanmen.
In the end, he used the art of tomb robbing to counter the Japanese weapons, used Feng Shui to trap and kill enemy generals, and rewrote the fate of troubled times.
The moment he burned the secret record, he was no longer Chen Jiuye, but the person who changed his life.
