The Bianhe River in the Song Dynasty is known as the tributary of Huangquan. During the day, there are many merchant ships, and at night, hundreds of ghosts float in the water. There are countless dead bones buried under the water. The corpse fishers are this group of desperadoes walking in the Yin and Yang world. The rules are as follows: fish for corpses without looking for beauty, look at corpses without looking at their faces, and touch corpses without tears. Those who break the rules will be killed by water ghosts and have no children or grandchildren!
I am the youngest corpse fisherman on the Bianhe River. My ancestors have made a living by this business for generations. I wanted to abide by the rules and earn a living. But that day, I violated the ancestral precepts and fished out an incorruptible female corpse from the deep pool wearing a phoenix crown and Xia Pei. The body was cold but her face was rouged. Her fingers were tightly clasped with a gilt imperial waistband. The lines on the waistband actually pointed directly to the inner courtyard of the palace.
Since then, the Bianhe River has been in complete chaos! In the middle of the night, floating corpses floated in in clusters, and there were sounds of gloomy drums on the bottom of the river. Water ghosts blocked the road, and river demons demanded their lives. Even the underwater tombs that had been buried for hundreds of years were turned upside down. Behind each floating corpse, there are shocking secrets that the Song Dynasty royal family did not dare to expose, the bloody massacre caused by the officialdom, and the soul-refining conspiracy of evil cultivators.
I break the rules, fight water evil spirits, and cross the Yin River. No matter whether it is haunted by evil ghosts or overpowered by imperial power, as long as I have enough money, I will dare to go into the water and fish it out even if it is a dragon corpse sunk at the bottom of the river or a resentful soul named by Yama! A pair of corpse-catching hands scooped up all the murderous corpses in the Bianhe River, and uncovered the most shameful and dirty secrets in the prosperous age of the Song Dynasty!
