On the first night when Jiang Du was transferred to the funeral parlor for night shift, there was an old coffin engraved with charms in the morgue. The female body in the coffin was wearing a red wedding dress, and the time of death was the third year of Xianfeng.
From then on, every midnight, cries would be heard in the funeral home. Jiang Du discovered that he could "see" the death scenes of certain people three days later in his dreams. The former night watchman left behind seven polished copper coins, each one corresponding to an injustice that spanned a century.
Why was the female corpse buried alive? What exactly did the quarry owner Meng Xiazi explode? Who are the eighteen villages submerged under the reservoir waiting for to come back?
There are nine copper coins in total. Grind one, and you will get a glimpse of the last scene of the deceased before his death. When grinding to the eighth piece, people will see themselves.
This is a book that records taboos, and it is also a bill for buying your life with copper coins. Some people grind copper coins to seal the door, while others grind it to open the door. When Jiang Du reached the seventh stroke, he discovered that his last name was engraved on the tenth copper coin.
Nightcrawler, when the blue light in the crack of the door goes out, it's your turn to pay your debt.
