Lin Zhou, Shen Nianyu, and Lu Yan, three ordinary people woke up to the sound of suona and were trapped in a ghost wedding villa. Everything here is governed by secret rules: red cannot be touched, doors and windows cannot be dismantled, and eyes cannot be closed more than three times in the coffin - every rule has been tried by someone with their life.
The core secret of the villa is hidden in the seven fragments of a wedding dress.
A hundred years ago, the sixteen-year-old girl Shen Muruo was nailed alive into a coffin and married in the dark, and her real name was erased from all records. Her sister rushed into the ancestral hall to protect her and was beaten to death on the seventh pillar. Her bones were buried under the pillar foundation for a full century. The three must go through the mirror puzzle of the mirror world, the eyes-closed test of seven coffins, and the blood reincarnation of seven pillars to collect the fragments and piece together the truth.
The villain of the story is not a ghost, but a Taoist priest - an evil cultivator who parasitizes the rules of the dungeon with a bone-binding talisman array and attempts to steal the immortal body. The only way to break the situation is to find the erased true name and cover the runes with the name.
In the end, Shen Nianyu read out the three words "Chen Mu Ruo", and the century-old talisman formation collapsed. Before the ghost bride disappeared, she used Lin Zhou's vocal cords to leave her last words: "You don't have to be chosen."
This is not a ghost story. This is a story about names - erased names that require another person's life to remember.
