In a border town, four murders strike in quick succession: young women awaiting marriage are brutally killed late at night, dressed in red and their throats slit, while not a single possession is taken.
Rumors sweep through the town: The Ghost King is taking a bride.
Su Jingzhi, a gentle and refined tutor at the village school, stands at the scene in white robes with a sachet at his waist, chanting sutras.
Shen Yan, Left Deputy Commander of the Embroidered Uniform Guard, is ordered to investigate the murders in secret. He carefully pieces together the clues and finally identifies the culprit.
He kicks open Su Jingzhi's door and shouts, “Seize him!”
“It wasn't me,” Su Jingzhi says calmly.
Shen Yan fixes Su Jingzhi with a piercing stare and gives a derisive laugh. Slowly, he says, “I mean the other you, Su Jinfang.”
“He did nothing wrong. He's just sick... I'm the one who killed them all!”
Su Jingzhi's gentle wife, Liu Wan'er, knocks back every Embroidered Uniform Guard with a single move and cries out fiercely.
