A blood-red coffin, a message from the Ming Dynasty, a coffin mountain buried for thousands of years, a "snake girl" imprisoned alive...
Chen Mo, a retired geological exploration consultant, originally wanted to spend his old age peacefully in the Wushan County Cultural Relics Bureau, but was dragged into an abyss of eternal destruction by a bizarre report. Longxi Village - an isolated place hidden in a deep ditch on the south bank of Wu Gorge. When digging the foundation, villagers dug out a stone chamber filled with blood-red coffins. On the stone wall, a Ming Dynasty official wrote a final warning in scrawled handwriting: "All the twelve people traveling with me are gone. I am the only one who came out, but I am also dead. If you enter, you will not come out."
Chen Mo took his young archaeological assistant Xiao Lin to conduct an in-depth investigation, only to discover that this "coffin mountain" was far from an ordinary tomb. From the hanging coffins of the Ba people during the Warring States Period, to the cliff tombs of the Han Dynasty, to the stone coffins of the Tang Dynasty, and the red coffins of the Ming Dynasty - for thousands of years, people from different eras and ethnic groups have buried their dead here, as if the mountain itself was a huge, never-closed cemetery.
What's even weirder is that all the coffins are buried with young women. Each remains has a snake bone wrapped around its neck and is wearing a blood-red wedding dress. There is an ancient legend passed down from generation to generation in the local area - there is a "snake girl" in the mountains who cries every full moon night. Anyone who hears the cry will either go crazy or disappear.
As the investigation deepened, Chen Mo discovered that there was an unimaginable underground palace network hidden underground in Longxi Village, and those blood-red coffins were just the tip of the iceberg. In the deepest part of the underground palace, there is a giant relief carved on the entire stone wall.
