When the autopsy report revealed animal patterns from "The Classic of Mountains and Seas", modern criminal investigation rules completely collapsed. Forensic doctor Qin Ge's right eye suddenly changed into a dragon pupil when dissecting the "ghost-faced corpse", and he could see the ancient animal patterns shining inside the skull of the deceased. In order to track down the truth about the seven "drown corpses in the desert", he was forced to team up with folklore expert Su Jiuli. The bronze dagger from the Western Zhou Dynasty etched with runes in her hand could actually make the cement piles at the murder scene ooze blood beads like fish scales.
The squid that tore off people's faces in front of the live broadcast camera, the mausoleum fish nesting on the cross-sea bridge, the nine-tailed fox that caused the collective suicide of the entire office building... 496 Strange beasts from the "Book of Mountains and Seas" are awakening as the seal of the Western Zhou Dynasty disintegrates. What's even more deadly is that they can't be seen on surveillance, and the output of the DNA detector will twist itself into a snaketail fish map. The only weapon that can break the cognitive pollution is Qin Ge's right eye that continues to transform into a dragon and Su Jiuli's increasingly resurrected memory of the girl who fed the dragon.
