Zhu Yao, who runs a stall in Nancheng's antique market, seems like an ordinary man, but he has mastered the lost orthodox art of Qimen Dunjia.
The police station is hit by one unsolvable locked-room murder after another, a bizarre series of suicides, and an eight-year-old cold case involving a corpse sunk in a reservoir!
Scientific criminal investigation is helpless. There is no evidence, and the killer is nowhere to be found!
Everyone mocks metaphysics as superstition, calling it absurd and laughable.
That is, until Zhu Yao opens his compass, determines the directions, breaks the baleful formation, and tracks down the killer!
He solves a locked-room murder in three minutes, finds a living person through the Nine Palaces, locates buried bones underwater, and uses Qimen Dunjia to deliver a deadly strike against the criminals' powerful backers!
Detective Wang Fang has her entire worldview turned upside down, and the whole police station begs him to step in!
The police catch the criminals they can see. He catches the real culprits, hidden within feng shui formations and killing without a trace!
