Su Qingci, an orphan from a family of treasure appraisers in the Republic of China, relies on her family's unique skill of "porcelain hand recognition" to protect the mysterious rubbings related to Xia Yu's Nine Cauldrons and enter the dangerous world. She gathered deaf and mute mechanics, custodian officers, and returned scholars to launch a battle to defend the memory of civilization across Kyushu amid the artillery fire of warlords, the covetousness of foreign businessmen, and the pickaxes of tomb robbers. This is not only a treasure hunting adventure, but also an ultimate salvage of the roots of China.
