Investigative reporter Chen Mu returned to this isolated ancient town to find out the truth behind his father's suicide in Fenglai Town twenty years ago. The townspeople treated him with an odd kindness and a unanimous reticence. Chen Mu discovered that all the townspeople had lost some of their senses - some couldn't smell, some couldn't taste, and some couldn't hear sounds. They guard a secret related to "memory" with an amazing tacit understanding. When Chen Mu found a never-before-published picture album in his father's old residence, he realized that his father's death was not the end, but the beginning of the town's reincarnation ceremony. And he is the "carrier" selected in this round.
