Three years ago, the 22-year-old Wang Chu Hanzhou with a different surname died in battle outside the pass, and the thirty thousand Xuanjia army was wiped out; three years later, the charlatan Chu Huai relied on his face that was very similar to the "King of Chu" to tell fortunes for ladies and ladies in Lin'an City. A series of skinning murders occurred one after another, and the deceased were all related to the bloody battle three years ago. When an old friend comes to the door with his token, when the emperor in the palace begins to doubt that he is not dead, when the old wounds in his body are urging him to die day by day - this "dead man" hiding in the shadows has to crawl out of the mountain of corpses and sea of blood, to find a way for himself, and to find an answer to the tragic defeat three years ago.
