“Realistic thriller × folk mystery × mortuary arts”
Forensic pathologist Li Qing can see the last memories of the dead with his right eye, but he doesn’t know it’s a “seal” his grandfather bought with half his life.
“Keep your right eye shut! Don’t let it touch a dead person’s blood!”
When a corpse appears with its chest covered in ancient runes, his right eye suddenly burns like a branding iron.
The rotting corpse is smiling, and its livor mortis is spreading into the emblem of the corpse-driving sorcerers of western Hunan.
His grandfather vanishes in the night, leaving behind a blood-written warning:
“The gates of the underworld are about to open. Someone is making a coffin out of living people!”
Captain Wang Lei of the criminal investigation team points a gun at him:
“You’re always talking to the corpses… What exactly are you hiding?”
In the shadows of the morgue, Second Master, a blind mortician, lets black blood drip from the tip of his cane:
“The dragon vein the Li family severed eighty years ago… has come back to claim lives.”
He kept his eye sealed to ward off disaster for twenty years. Tonight, his right eye is the gateway to hell.
