[Supernatural Mystery × Esoteric Detective Work × Western Regions Gu Poison]
Beneath Chang'an's golden age, the dead make no sound, yet corpses speak.
Wang Yan, a young coroner who can hear corpses speak and discern the words of the dead, once spent his days in a mortuary in a daze. But when the beautiful corpse of an unrivaled courtesan draws him into a shocking mystery, he discovers that not only was her death suspicious, but her body also conceals a venomous parasite, along with a stunning secret...
To break the forbidden art, he dissects corpses to extract parasites and risks his life for clues, pursued by forces on every side as danger closes in at every turn. From Chang'an's ghost market to Dunhuang's hidden grottoes, the words of the dead are like a curse, leading him toward an even deeper conspiracy...
“The truth is in Cave Seventeen at Mogao. Don't trust the living.”
“The last thing she said before she died wasn't a declaration of love. It was a curse.”
“She said, the next one is you.”

Travel unfamiliar roads and part the fog.
