I resigned from my job and returned to my hometown to open a B&B. I wanted to cure my severe anxiety disorder, but I discovered that the "windy courtyard" left by my grandmother was actually an altar to ancient gods for sacrificing living people!
Every guest who is "cured" will forget all pain, and together with part of his soul, will be swallowed up by the century-old camphor tree in the courtyard, becoming a "sacrifice" to feed the evil god of the ancient town.
And I am the new "manager" appointed by the evil god. If you sacrifice, I can live; if you don't sacrifice, it will suck my life away!
I tore up the sacrificial rules when guests left weird five-star reviews, attracting more desperate people to "deliver food." But I angered the god, and it went hunting in person, and the peaceful ancient town instantly turned into a screaming devil's cave!
The neighbor Lu Chen, who had guarded this secret for generations, handed me a blood-stained carving knife and said in a cold voice: "Either sacrifice others, or sacrifice yourself."
But I want to fight my way out of this devil's cave!
