In a small town on the Yangtze River, when the Three Gorges Dam was being built, it became a resettlement site for the reservoir area. Fifteen years after the town was relocated, a bloody box appeared in the new area of the town. Inside the box were various antiques, one of which was a root carving - a blood-red tree root carving that resembled a phoenix. In order to uncover the mystery of this root carving, Du Changan, a small town reporter, found the Phoenix buried in the Phoenix Spring at the bottom of the river between dreams and reality, and helped the Phoenix merge with him and become an immortal.
