Left Eye Sees Phantoms, Heart Fills with Joy 5 is a suspenseful mystery novel steeped in the supernatural. Following the experiences of protagonists Lin Yan, Chen Ting, Wei Dongting, Zhang Yanbing, and others, it recounts a series of thrilling paranormal adventures.

In an ancient Nuo village in western Hunan, photographer Lao Zhou sees a bluish-gray "phantom shadow" clinging to a Nuo opera mask with her left eye, and is overcome by an inexplicable joy. As they investigate, they discover a talisman hidden in a shrine dating back to the Guangxu era. Deciphering the secret phrase "Five Plague Spirits Lead the Way" reveals the hidden story of a Nuo priest who summoned ghost soldiers to protect the village a century ago. At Lop Nur in Xinjiang, a geological team encounters "glowing ribbons" in the Longcheng Yardang. The leader's left eye picks up a connection between them and the location of the Loulan ruins. After tracking them for days, the team finds a stone house deep in the Yardang, covered in star charts, confirming the mysterious legend that "the priest's soul-fire points the way to water." Along Hunan's Tea Horse Road, Lin Yan, a restorer of ancient books, sees a "phantom caravan" hauling cargo at an abandoned post station. Following the fading chime of a copper bell, she unearths a diary recording how "ghost soldiers helped a merchant caravan cross the Nujiang River" during the Daoguang era. Imprints of muddy horseshoes remain among the diary's characters. These seemingly unrelated supernatural incidents appear to conceal a deeper secret, drawing readers into the protagonists' search for the truth.
