Shen Mobai, a corpse chaser in western Hunan, has been driving corpses for generations. He carries an ebony corpse ruler around his waist, which can connect Yin and Yang and suppress the souls of the dead. However, one day, his ebony ruler suddenly oozed blood, indicating that a century-old curse was about to awaken.
Su Wanqing, the last mourner of the Su family in western Hunan, holds a soul-breaking hairpin that can summon the souls of the dead, and her tears can briefly revive the corpse. When she met Shen Mobai, she revealed the entangled fate between them for seven lifetimes - in each lifetime, they went to the church to get married, but in each lifetime, Shen Mobai ran away from the marriage, while Su Wanqing died an unexpected death.
In this life, the curse comes again.
Shen Mobai discovered that there was an invisible red thread of fate entwined between himself and Su Wanqing, and the Su family's maid Awu, the Shen family's secret art of raising corpses, Miao Jiang's poison, Maoshan's Taoist talismans, and even the ghosts of the underworld were all involved in this grudge that spanned a century.
The ebony ruler breaks, the corpse immortal awakens, and the seven generations of enemies must finally end.
This time, will Shen Mobai continue to escape from marriage, or will he change his fate against fate?
