Tales of Strange Mysteries

Archaeology student Xu Ming discovers a clue to his own origins in an old photograph, so he joins an expedition heading deep into the deserts of the northwest. What he expects to be a simple journey to uncover the mystery of his past turns into a fight for survival when a sudden sandstorm sweeps him into a legendary ancient trade route. There, he encounters a lost civilization that vanished a thousand years ago, and narrowly escapes with his life. Even after making it out alive, Xu Ming uncovers an even more shocking secret: his fellow travelers are all mysterious figures who had set their sights on him long ago. From then on, his world is turned upside down.
