Shen Wuwu, the immortal ancient spiritual watcher, lived for hundreds of years, leaving only wandering and forgetfulness. Every fifty years, his past would be cleared away. Only the mission of "eliminating demons and guarding spirits" was engraved in his bones and blood, and he also had a spiritual companion Qing Heng whose mouth was poisonous than a knife and whose heart was softer than tofu.
Qingheng was transformed from an ancient spiritual jade, and she accompanied Shen Wuwang through countless lonely years. Her venomous remarks were a daily routine, and her silent protection was her instinct, hiding all of Shen Wuwang's forgotten past. Lincheng, where the warlords were fighting, became another stop for the two wandering. The place was filled with turbid air, filled with evil shadows, and girls disappeared mysteriously one after another, all of which were inextricably linked to the embroidery village in the west of the city.
By chance, Shen Wuwang met Su Wanqing, the daughter of a warlord who was in decline and bent on revenge, and Qin Xiao, the warlord's adjutant who was humorous and unreliable but valued love and justice. The four of them form temporary partners and jointly investigate the strange happenings in Xiuzhuang, the corpses in the old house, and the strange diseases in the warlord's mansion, but unexpectedly they get involved in a grudge that spans a hundred years.
The mysterious embroiderer Lingxi returns with her magic, obsessed with revenge on her betrayers, and even more obsessed with making Shen Wuwu remember the past a hundred years ago. As the truth was revealed layer by layer, Shen Wuwang discovered that his bond with Lingxi was far beyond imagination. Qingheng's secret, the truth about the wake curse, and the hidden story of the betrayal gradually emerged.
The loneliness of eternity collides with the warmth of the world, good and evil are indistinguishable, and obsession is hard to break. Can Shen Wuwu find a balance between his guardian responsibilities and emotional bonds? After a century of grudges, will the ending be redemption or destruction?
Intention: The collision of eternal loneliness and the warmth of the world
