Xie Lin's fate was filled with bad luck, and he had never lived a happy life for a few days since he was a child.
In the eyes of the Xie family, he is the most useful and the one who should be pushed out to fill holes.
There was a murder in the old house, and the Xie family sent him in, hoping to use his life to suppress a well that was about to get out of control.
But no one expected that what was sealed at the bottom of the well was no ordinary evil spirit.
But Pei Wang.
Something that should have disappeared completely many years ago, cold, dangerous, and untamable, happened to follow Xie Lin out at the moment the seal collapsed.
Since then, people have died one after another, and old cases have been turned up layer by layer. The Xie family is unclean, the Xuanmen is unclean, and even Xie Lin himself has survived to this day, and it doesn't seem like he was simply destined to have bad luck.
Some people are watching him, some want to take advantage of him, and some want to drag Pei Wan back into the well and continue to be an obedient knife.
But they miscalculated one thing.
Xie Lin is not a weakling who can be manipulated by others.
Pei Wang is not something that anyone can seal or dare to touch.
One is settling accounts coldly, while the other is protecting shortcomings secretly.
Starting from the old house, from the living to the ghosts, from the family to the old society, all those who want to step on them and move up will have to kneel down to pay back their debts in the end.
This is an old game that has been buried for many years.
It's also a story about two people who are just crazy enough to join forces and bring down the entire chess game.
