Synopsis

The thing Liu Buyi, a fake master, regrets most in his life is learning how to “draw talismans with soy sauce” from a short video. Because the corpse that should be lying quietly in front of him is now using a soy-sauce-dipped finger to write his name on the coffin lid. Meanwhile, his half-baked beauty of a partner, An Xun, is munching on sunflower seeds and enjoying the show. “Didn't you say you had Yin-Yang Eyes?!” Liu Buyi's voice trembles. Seeing how unconcerned she looks, he almost passes out. An Xun spits out a sunflower seed shell and replies, “I told you, I can't see anything.” “Then do something!” “What's the rush!” An Xun pulls a length of rebar from behind her back. Who knows where she took it from. “I want to see if it's finished writing. What if it gets it wrong?” Liu Buyi glances at the crooked “Liu” on the coffin lid. His heart leaps into his throat, and his taut nerves are about to snap. Come to think of it, the corpse doesn't seem very literate. After writing “Liu” and “Bu,” it stops halfway through “Yi.” “Hey, Liu Buyi, hurry up and teach it!” An Xun eggs him on from the side. “If you want to teach it, you do it. I'm not teaching it!” “Don't be so stingy. It's just a name, right? Fine, I'll teach it!” As An Xun reaches out to intervene, the corpse's hand moves, completing the other half of the character “Yi.” The instant the corpse finishes writing Liu Buyi's full name, something utterly terrifying happens!
