When Shen An returned to his ancestral home, he just wanted to sell the old house to pay off his debts. The moment he pushed open the attic, three blood-red rules appeared on the wall - the incense must not be cut off, the memorial tablet must not be looked at, and the cries cannot be turned back. The screen of the phone went black, and a line of words appeared: "The rules are in effect. Violators will die."
From that moment on, he was drawn into a strange world hidden beneath folk taboos. A crying widow, a female general in a shadow play, a photo studio specializing in shady betrothals... Behind every strange story, there is a set of fatal rules in operation. The "rule exploration system" in Shen An seems to be related to the secrets left by his grandfather.
Rules are the logic of killing and the key to breaking the situation. During the seven-day vigil, the incense must not be cut off - who said you must use incense when burning incense?
