My name is Lin Feng, and I was sent back to Yinshan Village in the mountains by my parents during the summer vacation.
This is a village that cannot be found on the map. It is as silent as a tomb during the day and is full of ghosts at night. My grandfather was indifferent and taciturn, my grandmother was extremely frightened, and my second uncle looked strange. Late at night on the first day, I was haunted by the ghost of my uncle who had been dead for three years - the ghostly shadow hanging in the window on the second floor, the shrill call against the window crack, and the dark ghost fingerprints that could not be washed away, dragged me into boundless fear.
In order to save my life, I was forced to follow my grandfather into the mass grave at the back of the mountain to look for my uncle's mutilated bones when the evil spirit was at its strongest. Cemetery roadblocks, sinister night patrols, laughing skulls, resentful corpses hiding in graves... I was shocked all the way, and I accidentally woke up the corpse king who had been sleeping for a hundred years.
Since then, the fishery in Yinshan Village has returned, and villagers have died tragically one after another, with horrible death signs and terrifying ghost handprints on their chests.
The ghost of the uncle, the ghost in the mass grave, the man-eating corpse king, the villagers who keep secrets, the secret hidden by the grandfather, the silent fear of the second uncle, the past that the grandmother hesitates to talk about... Everything points to the shocking secret that has been buried in Yinshan Village for decades.
Only then did I understand that returning to my hometown was never about visiting relatives, but about entering a prearranged death situation.
Dead people are scary, living people are more dangerous, ghosts are cruel, and people's hearts are even colder.
In this cannibal mountain village, I can only survive in the cracks of yin and yang, and step by step uncover the terrifying truth about my family and the mountain village...
