Delivery boy Chen Yan is always troubled by "weird things" - an old clock he picked up dances on its own, and a broken porcelain bowl contains water with strange characters floating on it. Until a broken bronze mirror appears, his ordinary life is completely torn apart.
The reminder message for the rent increase has not been deleted, but the ghostly figure of the old man in blue suddenly appears in the mirror; the charterer of the village in the city died mysteriously and tragically, with the guild's blood-sucking black arrow stuck in his back; a strange text message guided him to an appointment with the old locust tree, but he was involved in a competition that spanned the three realms of humans, ghosts, and immortals.
When the bronze "Ling of the Realm" appeared in the world stained with blood, he fell from a familiar rental house into the antique "Linxu". The iron cavalry of the Zhenjie Division chased him behind him. The old woman who returned to Soul Crossing coveted his soul. Even the storyteller on the street wore a police mask. What secret is hidden in the broken jade left by Grandma Zhang in the welfare home? Why is the woman in the red dress in the mirror always peeping in the dark? What is the connection between Fatty Wang's death and the theft of the Realm Order three hundred years ago?
An ordinary person who can't even pay the rent, clutching a token that can open up the three realms, runs for his life in a world where reality and fiction are intertwined. He gradually discovered that his "eye-opening" power, the past in the orphanage, and even Grandma Zhang's death were not accidental - those weird details that he regarded as "hallucinations" had already laid the foundation for his destiny, and the "things outside the world" he saw were the fate he should bear.
When the boundaries between reality and other worlds become increasingly blurred, and when every face around him hides two appearances, Chen Yan must find out before he is swallowed up: Who is he? Where to go?
