Su Wan, an inheritor of the intangible cultural heritage of paper effigy-making, is unexpectedly drawn into a folk-rule game while trying to protect the ancient village of Ship Temple, which her grandfather defended with his life. Bound to the Paper Effigies Manifest System, she can ward off evil by crafting Zhong Kui effigies and guide the way with paper boats. The secret characters of Nushu are the key to breaking the game. Avoid the black-water monster at the Dragon Boat Festival river sacrifice; send off the royal ship and battle developers who tamper with the rules. Every stage is a gamble with death. Using her ancestral craft to call on the divine, she must save the players and keep the ancient village from being hollowed out. Her paper-cutting knife pierces the paranormal tales and protects her roots!
