The land's feng shui is in ruins, and sinister forces haunt the countryside.
The countless uncanny happenings in this world all stem from human misdeeds, vengeful dead, or fate's backlash.
Yang Bin, a wandering fortune-teller who travels alone, is fated to a lonely, ill-starred life. He has incurred a heavy karmic debt by revealing heaven's secrets, and was born with a disability: one finger missing.
He moves between ancient towns and the countryside on one hand, and the bustling cities on the other. He does not tell fortunes for immediate gain or accept meager fees.
He only delivers his prophecies with unwavering certainty, declaring fortune or calamity in a single sentence, then quietly waits for cause and effect to take hold and settles the century-old grudges of the living.
Ancestral homes in mountain villages conceal malevolent forces; the markets and officialdom conceal deadly traps.
Feng shui curses, wronged spirits, worldly calamities, and human schemes... Every disaster of yin and yang that the naked eye cannot see appears in his divinations.
Deadly danger lurks in the bustle of daily life; calamity lies hidden in the mundane world.
A lone fortune-teller with a missing finger takes heaven's punishment upon himself and traces every disaster to its root with his prophecies.
He walks step by step along the boundary between yin and yang, standing alone to keep the balance between the two in the world.
