In the 531st year of Chongli, on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Enping Village was massacred overnight. When Shen Yiyang and his younger brother Shen Yizhang returned from the lantern festival, they saw corpses all over the city. Their adoptive father Shen Mei fell in a pool of blood, and his robe was torn open. The court determined that the crime was committed by bandits, and at the same time issued a sea arrest document - a bandit with a "half-moon birthmark on the waist" was wanted.
Five years later, the two brothers concealed their names in Hongzhou. Shen Yiyang works as an errand in the Yamen, while Shen Yizhang is frail and sick, but he keeps his hatred deep in his heart. They met Ming Shiyue, a Taoist priest who had traveled here, and An Qing, an admonisher who wanted to escape the world and clear up his grudges - each of them was burdened with an injustice and blood feud from twenty years ago.
Four unrelated people met in Hongzhou because of a haunted theft case. They discovered that the Enping Massacre, the Ming family's injustice, and the An's murder all pointed to the same person. The half-moon birthmark on the back of the waist hides a secret that no one knows...
Some people learn to be strong in blood, and some find tenderness in hatred. In the end, there are people who travel the world together, and there are people who are ancient Buddhas and green lanterns. Shanyue is speechless, it is enough to have witnessed it.
Intention: Gu Ping is also hated by the world, and the wind and moon come again in spring.
