Performing the Nuo Dance

Nuo opera isn't just performed for the living. It's performed for the gods and the dead, too.

My name is Tian Baosheng, and I'm the last Nuo opera master for a hundred miles around. I've spent over a decade performing rites to send off the dead, singing funeral songs through the night to guide their souls, and I've never once slipped up. That is, until an old man without an invitation showed up and asked me to perform a Nuo opera in Liuxi Village. From then on, I was swept into a string of supernatural events!

The path-clearing vanguard didn't just hack open the road to the underworld. They set off a chain of supernatural incidents that would sweep across the land.

Behind every Nuo mask are gods, and ghosts, too. I'll speak for the dead who never got to tell their stories, and sing about the evils committed by the living.

Watch as I, Tian Baosheng, don the Nuo mask and sing open the path between yin and yang, one step at a time.

Nuo opera wards off evil, and treasure hunters track down hidden relics!
