The former history teacher is now the underground king of antiques. He uses his knowledge to identify artifacts and his heart to measure evil.
Xu Qingya's life completely collapsed after the wedding tragedy. Unemployed, divorced, seriously ill, he was forced to step into the unfathomable antique world. Until a mysterious case came to the door: a wealthy wedding banquet, the groom disappeared, and thirteen corpses wore the same smile. The police were helpless, but a Warring States jade at the scene led to clues to the dusty smuggling dark web.
The "useless" knowledge on the podium in the past has become the sharpest knife in the darkness. He can read the thousand-year murderous intention from the patina of bronze and spell out the bloody truth from the broken porcelain pieces. From an ant who was trampled upon by others, to "Mr. Qingya" who was frightened by both black and white, he not only climbed to the pinnacle of wealth, but also climbed to the throne of corpses.
But the secret of the original smiling dead man has always been with him. When the shadow of the past finally brought back the ultimate malicious backlash, he realized that this huge gamble with his life, the moment when the winner takes all, had just arrived.
