The Ren family has guarded a funeral home for 130 years. A coffin is locked in its cellar.
My grandfather's dying words were: "Don't let the lamp go out. Don't unlock the coffin. I'll answer for the debt."
The night the coffin disappeared, Ren Jingzhe learned that the man inside was an admiral from the Daoguang era, the ancestor of his entire family, and a two-hundred-year-old menace.
What chills him even more is the account book: seven years ago, his grandfather personally sold their ancestor overseas.
