Remote and cut off from the outside world, Qingxi Village hides taboos no outsider knows about. The mountain wind wails in the dead of night, and white silk that doesn’t belong to the village is always hanging from the old locust tree. In the abandoned mud-brick house at the village entrance, faint sobs can be heard every night at the third watch.
An outsider wanders into the village.
Only then do they discover how strangely the villagers behave.
They never go out at night,
and they dare not mention the lonely grave on the back hill.
People keep vanishing under mysterious circumstances, leaving behind nothing but chaotic footprints and a pungent, bloody stench.
As the truth is gradually revealed, buried wronged souls, curses passed down through generations, and shadows that come to claim lives in the dead of night all quietly awaken in the silent mountain village.
No one knows who will disappear next.
The plot is very good
