Marine archaeologist Shen Yuling fished out a statue with a human head and a fish body from a sunken ship in the Ming Dynasty, and also fished out a curse that has haunted her family for hundreds of years.
A storm started because of her, and a mysterious man named Cangming appeared.
He is neither human nor god, a prisoner of the deep sea and the guardian of the rules.
The ancient symbiotic contract has long been broken, and the rules of the ocean are collapsing.
He said: "Your blood is the key to restarting the ancient contract."
In the ancient and secluded fishing village, legends point to the "King of Hell" in the deep sea, and the successive strange events seem to confirm that the life-threatening curse has come true.
But Shen Yuling discovered that the truth is far more terrifying than superstition——
The so-called Poseidon is the collapse of ancient rules; the ghost fire that seduces people is the out-of-control abandoned people of the deep sea.
And Cang Ming, who pushed her into the center of the storm, was the one who finally broke the situation.
In this game with fate, is she the lamb destined to be sacrificed, or is she the key to fixing everything?
When the door to the deep sea opens again, can the contract across races usher in a different ending?
