In the twelfth month of 1937, an unusual earthquake struck deep in the Changbai Mountains. Geologist Lin Mo was ordered to assemble a fifteen-member expedition team and investigate. But the moment they crossed the snowline, they plunged into a silent abyss governed by rules: Guixu.
The snow here devours every sound.
Strange survival rules gradually came to light: Never leave footprints in the snow. Never look at your reflection in a mirror. Never answer the gaze of a stone statue. Never touch an old object with no owner… Behind every rule lay a bloody price.
As suspicion, terror, and death tore the team apart, the rules kept escalating with each passing week, and the truth was gradually laid bare:
This was no curse from the gods, but an “experiment in consciousness” built beneath the Changbai Mountains by the Japanese army.
