Autumn 1974, Shahudong, Chifeng, Inner Mongolia. A band of tomb raiders breaks into the rebirth altar of the Khitan high priestess, Aogu Dayuewu. A fragmentary Daoist text that should never have appeared sparks a struggle between the dead of a thousand years ago and the living of the present day.

A soul-snaring scroll of bewitching women; a bed-shaped coffin of lust that brings people to a wrongful death; two demon Daoists who were sworn enemies yet buried together in the same tomb; a secretive treasure hunter who dives underwater and holds his breath; the old white-skinned woman who loves burrowing into barren graves; a ghost island seen only once every sixty years; a concrete coffin turned upside down on a paper boat; a dead body drifting beneath the sea, turning over to bask in the moonlight; strangely dressed demons sleeping in the Eye of the Earth…

Winner of the Silver Award for Literature at the iQIYI World Conference.
