World view: The fictional warlord period of the Republic of China, where the old and the new alternate, and ethics and barbarism coexist. The location is the closed and backward "Blackstone Town". The clan forces in the town are intertwined and believe in the ancient "Stone Buddha" totem.
*Protagonist: Gu Yanzhi. A top student in the architecture department who returned from studying abroad, he is a typical elitist. He is arrogant, mysophobic, and has a poisonous tongue. He believes in science and efficiency, and regards all traditional folk customs as the dross of ignorance.
* Core conflict: Gu Yanzhi came to Blackstone Town to survey and map ancient buildings in order to complete his family's mission, but his arrogance offended the clan. He tried to use money and power to "correct" everything here, but he didn't know that he was the alien who was about to be "corrected."
* Creative highlights: The ultimate "slap in the face" exciting prelude. How arrogant the protagonist was in the early stage, how completely he collapsed under the feudal superstition and weird atmosphere in the later stage.
