In the Xiangjiang River basin, a land where the legend of corpse driving is passed down, the Ma family has generations guarding the orthodox corpse driving secret arts, becoming a hidden force protecting the peace of the departed souls of the region. As the current inheritor of the Ma family and the last orthodox corpse driver of Xiangjiang, after her father Ma Xiang passed away, Ma Xinyu single-handedly shouldered the entire family, taking care of her mother Li Fengying who has been chronically "bedridden" and needs huge medical expenses, pulling along her younger brother Ma Wei who is eager to go to the city for studies and full of complaints about the family's livelihood. Day by day, she barely maintains a livelihood by taking on corpse driving jobs, while constantly remembering her father's tearful last dying instructions.
