Map Secrets

During the Republic of China, Su Yan, an ancient book restorer, traveled south to Fujian and Guangdong with the "Coastal Map of Chaozhou Prefecture" in order to find his missing grandfather. This secret treasure, which consists of a main picture and three sub-pictures, contains clues to the smuggling stronghold and treasure house, and is also bound to weird folklore scams such as the "Sinking Boat Festival" and "Shark Man Festival". On the way, Su Yan gathered allies such as Lin Ye, an anti-smuggling agent, Chen Nian'an, a branch of the Chen family, and Zhou Laodao, a former Taoist priest, to form a "literary + military + medical + intellectual" expedition team. They not only have to fight against the ruthless Chen family smuggling group, but also beware of the coveting of Mr. Zhao, the agent of the great powers. In Zhanglin Ancient Port, Shenzhou Bay, Huilai Fishing Village and other places, they have to solve the mysteries of hiding corpses in oyster shells, attracting souls in lighthouses, and killing with tides. The team followed the map clues, collected sub-maps, unlocked the secrets of the jade cong and the bronze compass, and gradually uncovered the smuggling conspiracy and plundering conspiracy of the great powers behind the alienation of folk customs. From secret passages in ancestral temples to ancestral tombs under the sea, from black market puzzles to tidal cannon duels, everyone adheres to justice in the game of life and death, eventually dismantling the smuggling network and protecting the cultural context of the sea. However, they also discover that there is a broader overseas secret hidden behind the map, laying the groundwork for a new journey.
