People in Xiao Town are afraid of the Xiao family mansion, saying it is a cursed and haunted house - after the massacre in the 23rd year of the Republic of China, the bronze mirrors in the house would bleed, green shadows would always float in the corridors, and even the river outside the town smelled like rust.
Shen Yanqing does not believe in evil. As a scholar specializing in the archeology of the Republic of China, he insisted on excavating the Xiao family ruins, but accidentally traveled through time and became Xiao Shutong, the thirteenth son of the Xiao family. When I woke up, the calendar on my bedside clearly printed "August 12th, the 23rd year of the Republic of China" - seven days before the massacre.
He began to search for clues in the mansion: the incomplete account books in the secret room of the study, the handkerchief embroidered with alien totems among his mother's belongings, and the bloody dagger secretly hidden by his second brother Xiao Mingzhang. Until Mo Li, a mysterious alien youth from the southwest, appeared with a piece of tattooed jade that could awaken his memory, and revealed the shocking secret: the Xiao family's wealth was obtained with the "soul of life" of the alien race; and that murderous murder was revenge that was twenty years late.
Shen Yanqing stood in the shadow of the house door, watching the dark clouds in the sky coming down: not only did he want to survive, but he also wanted to uncover the "dream secret" of the Mo Li people being imprisoned by the Xiao family - because this might be the only chance to reverse the fate of the family.
