In the 16th year of the Republic of China, Jiangcheng.
Private detective Lu Li takes over a bizarre murder case. The deceased was Shen Jingzhi, the owner of a drug store, with a strange rune carved on his chest. His death was peaceful but revealed an unspeakable evil aura. Lu Li investigated and discovered that this was no ordinary vendetta, but a sophisticated sacrificial ceremony. A secret sect named "Yinshan Dao" surfaced, and they attempted to summon ancient evil spirits to seize the city's lifeblood.
Lu Li was racing against the opponent with his own life. He checked for clues, found witnesses, and broke into the altar at night. Each time he was one step closer to the truth, and each time he was one step closer to hell. When he finally stood in the center of the final circle, he only had one bullet, a lame leg, and a word that he didn't have time to say.
He won.
But the price is that he will never be able to fire a gun again in his life.
