Lin Wan, a 24-year-old folklore intern, returned to Qingwu Village, a remote mountain village where her grandmother lived, due to a research task assigned by her instructor.
There is mist here all year round, and under the old locust tree at the entrance of the village, silent old people sit every day. Grandma warned her: "Don't go up the mountain when it's dark. If you hear someone calling your name at night, don't answer."
Lin Wan has a secret - she can capture vague and abnormal light and shadow, and hear tiny and strange sounds. This is not a complete yin and yang eye, but it is enough for her to sense the "things" wandering in the corners of the village.
A wooden comb that combs your hair by itself late at night, a pair of wet embroidered shoes that appear on the doorstep on a rainy night, a shadow account that records every "sacrifice" in the past hundred years...
Lin Wan used the rational perspective of folklore to record each supernatural event. But she gradually discovered that all the stories pointed to the same place - the forbidden land behind the village, Laohuai Slope.
There, there is a secret that lasts for hundreds of years.
And she had already been involved.
