The Seven Gates of Eddy Water

"My mother taught me to save my life with ghost stories, but I spent my whole life paying off the debt to this river." Li Mo grew up listening to his mother's "real ghost stories" - the protagonists of each story were his relatives. At the age of twenty-seven, his mother died of illness. He returned to his hometown in Shandong with the scars of the city, only to find that those childhood fears were becoming reality one by one. The embroidered shoes in the old well, the white shadow under the river bridge, the cries in the cemetery at midnight... The seven-door formation that my mother spent forty years laying down is disintegrating. As the last gatekeeper of the Li family, Li Mo must complete a redemption spanning three generations on the shore of this whirlpool where resentment has accumulated for three hundred years. This is not a horror story, it is a contract between a village and a river. When fear becomes the power of protection, inheritance becomes warm.
