Girls from Hanlu Town, an ancient town in southwest China, have gone missing one after another. Folklorist Shen Yanshu took his students Cheng Weiyang, Lin Zhao, Jiang Chi, and the mysterious guide Su Yan to investigate an abandoned Taoist temple - the White Bone Temple.
It is said that there is a dry well in the temple, and there are many bones at the bottom of the well. Women's cries can be heard in the middle of the night. What's even weirder is that the eyes of all the dead have been gouged out.
Cheng Weiyang's left eye has been able to see things that ordinary people cannot see since he was a child. After entering Hanlu Town, her eyes began to see things they shouldn't - the future blood seeping out of the walls, her slowly rotating pupils in the mirror, and the woman in white with no facial features at the end of the corridor. And the gentle and elegant guide Su Yan seemed to know this Taoist temple very well... As if he had witnessed everything with his own eyes over the past four hundred years.
When the five people finally revealed the truth about the Bone Temple, what awaited them was not relief, but the cruelest answer——
This is not their first time here. They have come one hundred and thirty-six times.
Each time, someone sacrificed. Each time, the person who leaves alive forgets everything. But this time, Cheng Weiyang's left eye finally remembered the truth of all the cycles: she was the one who stayed voluntarily. For him.
White bones give birth to flowers, and the cycle continues endlessly. This time, can they break the four-hundred-year curse?
Or is the only way to break the curse is for someone to willingly stay and become the new curse itself?
——May your eyes only look at the living.
Concept: The deepest cage is not the Bone View, but the obsession in people's hearts; the only way out is not to escape, but to let go.
