In the fifteenth year of Hongwu's reign, thirty-six heads fell to the ground at the Yingtianfu execution ground. Shen Du opened his eyes and found himself kneeling in the thirty-seventh position. He is a death row prisoner named Shen Qi, with unknown charges and no memory. Before the knife fell, he heard the decapitated death row prisoner talking - a head rolled to the ground, with lips still moving. From then on, he became the first person in the Ming Dynasty who could hear the dead. Every time he listened, he got closer to the truth. But every time he meditates, he loses a piece of his memory.
