Wu Yanzhou was originally a down-and-out young man working in an antique shop. He rescued a mysterious homeless old man and accidentally received a dusty jade cicada as a gift. The jade cicada fused eyes, allowing him to awaken the "Dongyuan Spiritual Eye" - which can see through raw stones, identify the age of ancient artifacts, and see the "treasure light" and "evil energy" on the artifacts.
From then on, he stepped into the treasure-appraisal world where crises and opportunities coexist. He made his first pot of gold by picking up a "grey pottery paperweight" from the Qing Dynasty at a night market, but was targeted by local snakes. To save himself, he stepped into a stone gambling den and used his spiritual eyes to select a "rigid stone" that was despised by everyone.
He discovered that Yu Chan's origin was related to a lost "Bao Appraisal Sect", and that he was not the only "spiritual pupil" like him in the world. In the past, an overseas smuggling group disguised as a Confucian businessman set up a trap, but later, the descendants of a century-old treasure appraising family viewed him as a provocation. Wu Yanzhou must use his wisdom and spiritual eyes to continue to grow in collecting leaks, gambling on stones, and appraising treasures, accumulating capital and connections. He must also explore the secret behind the jade cicada and uncover a thousand-year battle for antiquities.

The "imitation" calligraphy and paintings in the museum hide the original works of Tang Bohu.
With these eyes, he was blocked by major auction houses, experts from the Forbidden City came to ask for advice, and collectors around the world doubted his life.
Until the mysterious sarcophagus at the finale of the underground auction was opened, Lin Mo's pupils shrank suddenly - the woman lying in the coffin was exactly the same as the "her" he had been entangled in his dreams for three years...
