In the hazy mountain villages in the south of the Yangtze River, there is a strange legend about the bamboo demon. Mr. Li, a wealthy man in the village, was a gambler when he was young. He also had an affair with a widow. The widow had a deep love for her, but she was defrauded of money and sex by Mr. Li. He was eventually killed by him and his body was dumped in the bamboo forest in the backyard. That bamboo forest was originally a place where spiritual energy gathered, nurturing a bamboo spirit that was about to cultivate into an immortal. However, the widow's resentment and blood polluted the spiritual energy, and the bamboo spirit could not become an immortal. It could only fall into the evil way and turn into a bamboo demon. The bamboo demon is resentful and vows to take revenge on Mr. Li and his family. It used a little trick to make Mr. Li die young. However, the bamboo demon's revenge is not over yet. It cursed Mr. Li's family to have no peace for generations, and all future generations would suffer misfortune until the Li family's bloodline was cut off. Many years later, Mr. Li's granddaughter Li Mingliang returned to his ancestral home to find out the truth in order to solve the family curse. He met the bamboo demon in the bamboo forest, but found that the bamboo demon was not entirely evil. There was a sad and beautiful past hidden behind its resentment. Can Li Minglang resolve the resentment of the bamboo demon and unlock the family's curse? This is a fantasy story about love and hate, crime and punishment, exploring greed and redemption in human nature, as well as the fate of reincarnation. The resentful spirits, family curses and hidden truths deep in the bamboo forest interweave a picture full of oriental mystery.
