My name is Li Zhuiyuan. I was sent back to the countryside by my mother when I was eighteen years old.
The grandfather said that people had died in the river, so don't go out at night.
The first night, the water ghost climbed onto my window sill and called my name.
The next night, she fished out a female corpse from the river, with a red rope exactly like mine tied around her wrist.
There is a secret hidden under the water in Liuhe Village.
Six years ago, the opera singer Xiao Huangying drowned in the river, her eyes were gnawed out by fish, and her resentment turned into a ghost. Six years later, I returned to this village I had never set foot in, only to find that the ghost knew me, the crazy old lady by the river stared at me and called me "evil", and the mother who raised me was not my biological child at all.
Grandpa Li Sanjiang told me that my biological mother's name is A Lian, and she is a water ghost in the river. He is not my grandfather, but my father.
What's even more frightening is that there is something even older at the bottom of the river. It is waiting, waiting for the awakening of the bloodline of a "corpse hunter", waiting for a reckoning of grievances that lasts for three generations.
Everyone around me has their own secrets - the sunny and cheerful Runsheng is my half-brother, but he fell in love with Qin Li, the descendant of the Dragon King, at the same time as me; Aunt Bailian's gentleness hides the murderous secret; every name on the female ghost Xiao Huangying's revenge list is related to me.
People say that I have access to yin and yang and can rescue the souls of the dead.
But I just want to know——
Are those eyes under the water my mother or myself?
Like to see, love to see!
