In the spring of the 21st year of the Republic of China, Shen Qingtang, a student in the Department of Archeology at St. John's University, encountered a bolt from the blue when he returned home during the Qingming Festival - the 47 members of the "Jinling Shen Family", a Taosha family that had been inherited for three hundred years, were brutally wiped out overnight and their ancestral home was burned down. What was left at the scene were not traces of bullets, but wounds caused by long-lost ancient weapons. As the only survivor of his family, Shen Qingtang discovered clues to the ancient secret "Buzhou Mountain Ruins" from the "Broken Vein Notes" left behind by his father. In the process of pursuing the truth, she attracted the attention of Gu Yunshen, the son of the Shouling family. One wants to dig into history to find the truth, and the other wants to protect secrets and maintain balance. The two confront each other for the first time at the murder scene. When Shen Qingtang finally cracked the family secret room and found the ancestral "Taosha Secret Scroll", he found that the three most critical pages had long been torn out, and the last mark left by the family exterminator pointed the finger at Peiping thousands of miles away...
