There's a Talkative Ancestor in My Family's Heirloom Ring

I livestream feng shui exposés and unravel a thousand-year-old conspiracy.

Lin Xiaoshu never imagined that livestreaming as an “environmental safety consultant” just to make ends meet would pull him into a bizarre mystery spanning fifty years.

What looks like a feng shui assessment of a luxury mansion is really a search for clues about his missing grandfather. When the mansion’s pagoda tree begins glowing red in the dead of night, and the seven points of a Big Dipper formation activate one after another in different corners of the city, he finally realizes the truth:

The “Earth’s Core Gate” his grandfather, Lin Jiuchuan, discovered fifty years ago is being opened again.

On one side, modern technology lets him livestream and expose the scientific flaws in building layouts.

On the other, his ancestral copper coins grow hot, sensing the strange currents flowing deep beneath the earth.

The father of the mansion’s CEO falls into a mysterious coma. A criminal investigator pursues a string of bizarre cases. His sister, born with a rare Yin constitution, teeters on the brink of death... Every clue points to the mysterious man who calls himself “junior uncle,” Chen Yan, and the ancient organization behind him known as the “Gate Openers.”

They want neither wealth nor power. They only want to use a Seven-Star Luck-Borrowing Array to gather the city’s baleful energy and knock on a “gate” that should never exist in this world.

What lies beyond it: immortality? Treasure?

Or the truth behind the trembling warning in his grandfather’s notebook: “If you see red light, leave at once”?

As the livestream camera points at the heart of the array, and the copper coins pulse in sync with the beat beneath the earth,

Lin Xiaoshu grips the three Severing-Bloodline Coins his grandfather left him:

“You want to open the gate? Did you ask the gatekeeper’s grandson first?”

“This time, I’ll use livestreaming and the occult to show the whole world your thousand-year plan.”
