Chen Gensheng has a light blue spot on his left ankle, which hurts whenever it rains. None of the men in the Chen family lived past thirty-five.
Before his death, his father left only one sentence: "Don't go to the back mountain, don't look back."
But things have already come to the door—the small footprints under the window, the black mud in the stove, and the everlasting green light on the top of the tower. Women from the Cultural Relics Bureau, brothers who are greedy for money and afraid of death, and Granny Bai who can sing funeral songs were dragged into the bureau one after another.
There are 30,000 bones under the tower and five shallow openings are sealed. The eye hidden in the mud is waiting for the descendants of the Chen family to open it.
