Story Background
Xieling Ridge, a centuries-old town sheltered by the faith of the Three Purities.
The sudden death of the wealthy Merchant Qin is like a stone thrown into deep water, stirring up all the undercurrents. At the funeral, a returned policewoman, a lone girl seeking refuge, a mysterious Taoist priest, a Gu-witch searching for her roots, and an antique dealer with a hidden pastâeach with their own secretsâgather in the eerie Qin family mansion.
Yet, the ritual of death is far from over. When the steward meets a gruesome end in a locked room, an invisible barrier descends, trapping everyone inside this coffin for the living. No one is innocent; no one can be trusted.
An ancient curse whispers, and behind the legendary Three Purities statues said to grant wishes lurks a more sinister presence. Every person who prays to the idols pays an unforeseen price. Is this a divine trial, or the cruel game of a malevolent force?
