There are four taboos in performing autopsies on Dayong warriors:
The nameless corpse does not have its mouth stitched, the dead corpse does not sleep a wink, no knife is used after midnight, the corpse sent from the City God's Temple - regardless of the cause of death.
Xu Cunzhen became an apprentice in a county government office. On the first day of work, he broke all four taboos.
The female corpse fished out of the well was not drowned, but the soles of her feet were stained with the ashes of the city god. Everyone remembers that she died, but no one remembers who she was.
When the female corpse opened her eyes on the autopsy bed, Xu Cunzhen also saw the lingering dream she left behind.
From then on, every time an unjust case is cleared, he can inherit the deceased's best skill and bear an unresolved obsession.
People can lie and ghosts can deceive people.
But the wounds left by the body will not.
Until Xu Cunzhen saw his name on the Chenghuang's wish list, which he should have died nine years ago.
