Moche Village was founded because of the silver lode in Silver Cave, but the Yin Sha within that lode also made it dangerous. The Zuo family had guarded the lode for generations. From the moment Zuo Xiaofeng put on the wooden token bearing the crescent-moon birthmark, he was drawn into a struggle that had lasted over a century.
On one side stood the balance of yin and yang in the Twin-Vein Formation and the protective yang energy of the Pine Vein. On the other were the evil sorcerers’ vein-corroding water, the Yin Sha Formation, and all the factions coveting the heart of the silver lode. From seeking blood relatives in Wusa Prefecture to fighting Yin Sha at Gama Mountain, from an old register stolen from the memorial hall to the vein-splitting axe deep in the caves, Zuo Xiaofeng stood shoulder to shoulder with his family and Daoist Liu, foiling one plot after another to damage the vein energy amid the pines and silver light.
But when Shu Ming’s mask fell and the Secret Records of Vein Energy went missing, they finally understood: guarding the lode meant protecting not only its stability, but also the people of Moche Village’s resolve to keep greed from swallowing their hearts.
