Performing the Nuo Dance

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

My name is Tian Baosheng, and I'm the last Nuo opera master within a hundred li. I've spent more than a decade performing rites to guide the dead in civil ceremonies, warding off evil in martial ceremonies, and singing funeral songs through the night to send off souls, without a single mishap. That is, until an old man showed up without an invitation and asked me to perform Nuo opera in Liuxi Village. From then on, I was swept into one supernatural incident after another!

The path-clearing vanguard didn't just hack open the road to the underworld. It set off a chain of supernatural events that spread across the land.

Behind every Nuo mask are gods, and ghosts. I'll speak for the dead who never got to tell their stories, and sing of the evil deeds of the living.

Watch as I, Tian Baosheng, don the Nuo mask and sing open the road between the living and the dead, one step at a time.

Nuo opera subdues evil, while treasure hunters seek hidden tracks!
