The architectural designer went to the ancient town of Liuxi to collect the scenery. On a full moon night, he saw the strange reflection of the double moon by the ancient well. Emergency doctor Xie Nanxiang handles many bizarre death cases one after another, and unseasonable white chrysanthemums appear at the scenes. The fates of the two are unexpectedly intertwined, and they are both involved in a curse cycle that spans thousands of years.
Liu Wenyuan, a scholar from the Tang Dynasty who was sleeping at the bottom of the well, died because of his injustice, and his resentment was soaring, forming a "well of reincarnation". Shenjiazhuang has guarded this well for generations, and every sixty years a person similar to Liu Wenyuan needs to be sacrificed to appease his grievances. Now that the seventh cycle has begun, Jingran, Xie Nanxiang, Lian Chengbi, Shen Wei, Shen Mian - these people with similar faces but from different time and space are all marked as candidates for sacrifice.
From the miniature cage to the fantasy world of "Xiao Shiyilang", from modern Liuxi Town to Shenjiazhuang in the Ming Dynasty, the two struggled to survive in countless layers of time and space. The white chrysanthemum sachet is both a gift of goodwill and a mark of death, and the ancient well is both an exit and a prison. Each death begins a new cycle, and each cycle brings deeper despair.
When the full moon night comes again, the seventh sacrifice is about to be offered. Is it a tragedy that repeats for thousands of years, or is it a redemption that breaks the cycle? Between truth and illusion, they must find the real exit - deep in the ancient well that has swallowed countless lives, hides the ultimate secret that changes everything.
