During the Qianfu period of the late Tang Dynasty, the mountains and rivers were in turmoil, and rituals and music collapsed.
Li Jun, a young man in Qinghe County who makes a living by wrapping dead people, has been dependent on his "aunt" since he was a child, guarding a wrapping shop with a faded wooden plaque, and living an inconspicuous life. What he didn't know was that his life experience contained a bloody palace tragedy eighteen years ago.
His father, who was the crown prince of the Tang Dynasty, was about to be crowned the throne, but died in a bloody night massacre jointly set up by his younger brother and the eunuchs. As an infant, he luckily escaped, and was secretly taken out of the palace wall by his father's concubine, who had a low status and therefore escaped liquidation. He remained anonymous and survived in troubled times by relying on the craft of "postmortem wrapping".
The turning point of fate begins with a "disappearing coffin".
With the meticulous eyesight trained by a wrapper, Li Jun gradually uncovered the mysterious case of corpse fraud that seemed to be evil, but he also came across the secrets that his aunt tried so hard to hide time and time again. Talismans, old documents, and a incomplete name - "Li Fuguang" pushed him to a road from which he could never turn back.
The appearance of the reclusive master Nan Hua Lao Xian opened the door for him to cultivate immortality and seek enlightenment; the mutual understanding and support of the people in the world allowed him to gradually gather an investigative team from a single wrapping craftsman. And behind every seemingly bizarre "immortal magic case", what is often pulled out are not ghosts and gods, but a web woven by human hearts and power. The end of this web points directly to the monstrous secret of the collusion between the emperor and the eunuchs in the palace.
This time, what he wants to take is not only a path to solve the case, but also a path to regain everything that should belong to him from the ruins.
