When Shen Yanqiu squatted at the back door of the gambling house to fish for soy sauce meat, he discovered the secret of Mr. Xie of Qingzhu Lane - this noble man in white clothes and snow-white clothes was an innocent soul with bones and jade in his body.
In order to save his sick mother, he took over the job of digging up ashes from a mass grave, but he stepped into an old pit from twenty years ago: Xie Linzhou was the prince of Jingan whose entire family was massacred. Gu Yun used corpse poison to hide his bones, and also used Shen's mother's soul to refine his soul.
When the Phoenix Blood Curse on the back of his neck was burning, Xie Linzhou's cold fingertips pressed on his wrist: "Your mother saved me, now I will protect you."
But what does a ghost's promise count? It wasn't until the arrow pierced Xie Linzhou's back and he held his hands full of blood that he understood——
What is locked in this bone contract is not the soul, but the eyes of the kitten and the boy on the window sill of the woodshed twenty years ago.
