An old coffin from the Republic of China was unearthed in a village in the city. The Taoist robes in the coffin were complete, and the human form was complete - except for the bones. In place of the bones are seven green bamboo poles stretched from the inside.
Forensic doctor Shen Shen does not believe in strange powers and gods. He only believes that corpses can talk. But there were seven empty coffins in three months, dead people who had been dead for thirty years were buried on the same night, and a person who died twenty years ago appeared on the surveillance camera... All the evidence points to the most unsavory method of becoming an immortal in Taoist classics - dismemberment.
"When a superior person lifts up his body, he is called a heavenly being; when a lowly person dies, he sheds his body first, and he is called a corpse to resolve the immortality."
It turns out that the corpse's dismemberment is not about becoming an immortal, but about escaping. It turns out that behind the thousands of years of "achieving and ascending" is a harvest centered on "immortal seeds": some people are born with immortal bones, and there is no one in ten thousand; some people have set up a plan for thousands of years, farming, cutting greens, harvesting sloughs, and turning "becoming an immortal" into a farming business.
And Shen Shei's own father left an empty coffin and half a note twenty years ago - "If you see this sign, there will be no me in the coffin."
Do immortals have seeds or do they have no seeds? When the forensic doctor reaches out to the gods with his scalpel, he must personally test the answer.
