Introduction to the work
In the fifteenth year of the Republic of China, evil spirits suddenly emerged in Jiangcheng, and the troubled times were like darkness.
A barber shop demands his life at night, but his head is cut off without a sword; a centuries-old ancient well locks the soul and swallows eight lives in a row; a cat-faced old lady breaks into the village at night, but no one survives; the red embroidered shoes seduces the soul, and the shadow play devours the human body... One after another, strange murders occur, the forensic doctors are unable to perform autopsies, the police are helpless, and everyone is in danger.
Shen Qinghe, a descendant of Taoism who is hidden in the market, possesses orthodox Feng Shui talismans, Yin and Yang formations, and his folk skills are all practical folk tricks for exorcising evil spirits; Lu Yanzhi, the overseas detective, does not believe in ghosts and gods, but after witnessing the strangeness of Yin and Yang again and again, he is completely convinced. It completely subverts cognition; Su Lingxi, a sassy and agile disciple from the Northeast, connects yin and yang, chases ghosts, investigates secrets, and uses magic to directly target the key points of evil spirits;
The four people met by chance and formed an evil team.
They use glutinous rice and cinnabar to purify the house, peach wood talismans to suppress evil spirits, compasses to identify pulses to find evil spirits, and Buddhist mantras to transfer souls. They use the most authentic Chinese folk magic to solve bloody crimes.
Behind all the evils is the "Broken Dragon and Swallowing of Flowers" set up by the Japanese onmyoji - stealing Chinese magic, refining Yin soldiers and shikigami, and cutting off the dragon veins of Jiangcheng, in an attempt to use magic to bring disaster to the country.
In the past, the folk magician who only wanted stability, the disciple who wanted to escape the world, the detective who adhered to the legal principles, and the monk who cared about the common people have stood side by side since then.
Protect the mountains and rivers, protect the Chinese cultural heritage, and use local ancient methods to fight against external evil spirits.
