Shen Youfang, who runs a small antique shop on Pingjiang Road in Suzhou, just wants to live a peaceful life by keeping the shop. Who would have thought that after his grandfather passed away, he dug out an old leather ledger, and strange things began to plague him.
This account book is a bit evil. It doesn't need anyone to write it down. It will have light cyan words written on it by itself, specifically to write down the dead souls who can't let go of their obsessions. It turns out that his humble resting place is the buffer zone between the Yin and Yang worlds.
The Yehe Ghost Market in Changmen outside the city does not light up the lights at night and relies on the dim light of the river to do business. It not only trades old objects, but also deals with a lot of troublesome matters between yin and yang. Strange things happened one after another: drowned people at the bottom of the river were waiting to cross the river to be buried; the coffin that had been parked for twenty years had not yet been buried; the water-suppressing beast under the bridge was almost unable to hold up due to the pressure of old grievances. Shen Youfang was forced to learn to deal with supernatural troubles one after another.
Qiao Xue, a woman from the north, came to the door, bringing half a torn and old receipt, and revealed a secret that had been buried for twenty years. There is an organization called Xibaifang, which can completely erase a person from the Yin and Yang Book. Even if the person is alive, it seems as if the world has never existed.
The ghost market broker Lao Gui, the local gentleman who understands folk customs, and the enthusiastic young man Fatty all have their own thoughts surrounding the shop. Shen Youfang gradually discovered that his grandfather hurried back to Suzhou from the north, and there was a huge hidden secret behind it.
In order to understand the past of his father's generation and solve the mystery of the bronze mirror, Shen Youfang left behind his comfortable life in the south of the Yangtze River and headed north to Panjiayuan. Old accounts have been opened, and the shadow of Xibaifang is closing in step by step. On this trip, he not only wanted to comfort the wandering souls, but also to find the erased people and the truth one by one.
