My name is Yu Heng, the last corpse collector in Zhenhe Village. As soon as I got into the water today, I found a red rope stuffed in the urn that Master left for me. At the end of the rope was Hei Wuchang's life-borrowing contract - the whole village was detained by ghosts, and if seven scapegoated corpses were not found within three days, we would all drown together. I was born with yin and yang eyes. I can see that every dead person has a piece of rope trailing behind his buttocks. As long as I cut it with my own hands, I can summon the soul of the dead to ask for directions. Yesterday, I cut the rope of a man who jumped off a building, and in exchange for the accurate location of suicide cases in the city, I earned three thousand per order. I just took on a big job today: someone offered me five million to salvage the Ming Dynasty corpse boat that sank at the bottom of Longyuan Lake. On the deck, I could vaguely see three hundred skeletons in official uniforms, kneeling down to me...
