Ancestral Niche

In that "living corpse village" forgotten by the world, love and protection are a curse passed down from generation to generation. Chen Yuan soon discovered that his family had one more "taboo" bone than the genealogy recorded. The extra "ancestor" always stood silently in front of his bed late at night, or hung upside down from the beam in an inhuman manner. It doesn't hurt, it just "protects". At the same time, Chen Yuan's keenness as a doctor allowed him to smell the smell of formalin and decaying flesh and blood hidden under the requiem incense that filled the village. Here, the deepest terror does not come from ghosts, but from the people closest to you. Parental love is to dedicate you to your more ancient "ancestors"; The love of lovers pushes you towards your destined destiny in every betrayal and protection. When the final ceremony came and Chen Yuan stood in the center of a huge formation composed of blood and bones, he understood: From the beginning, there was no redemption. All the struggle and exploration only allowed him to see his ending more clearly in the endless despair - to become a brand new corpse in this eternal reincarnation of the living corpse village, forever "guarding" future generations... Taboo bones.
