In order to fulfill the family's instructions, Lin Sanjiu, the last corpse exorcist in western Hunan, accepted Su Miao, a rebellious urban girl with dyed hair and earrings, as his apprentice.
She messes with the Corpse Corps and mocks the charms as "earthy peripherals."
Until that night when the corpses transformed in a century, she hid behind him, but used the flash of her mobile phone to drive away the ancient corpses.
Lin Sanjiu discovers that Su Miao is actually a "yin evil body" that is rare to see in a century - to the demons and monsters, she is a walking panacea.
And all the strange events pointed to the mysterious Gu Master deep in Miao territory who planted the "protective Gu" when she was born and silently protected her for twenty-two years.
The corpse-evicting bell rang, and the poisonous insects hummed.
When ancient inheritance collides with modern cities, when the boundaries between yin and yang begin to loosen.
He held a mahogany sword in front of her, and she used her Yin evil body to control the Gu insects to break the situation.
"Don't be afraid," he said, his blood-stained hand holding hers for the first time, "I'll take you out of the Hundred Thousand Mountains in Western Hunan."
But she didn't know that the unspoken oath——
Use the corpse as a road and the poison as a retainer, even if the yin and yang are separated, I will protect you in this life.
