Tang Dynasty Mystery: The Nine-Story Tower

share time: 2025-12-27 00:37:35

On the outskirts of Chang'an in the Tang Dynasty, a mysterious "nine-story tower cannibal case" erupts—no one who enters the tower survives, and even coroner Su Wan's best friend vanishes without a trace. Determined to investigate, she breaks into the tower, only to awaken past-life memories: she was once a spirit maiden guarding the "Time-Reversing Jade" in the tower, burned alive for refusing to offer the treasure to the emperor for immortality. The cold and stern Junior Minister Gu Zhao, who leads the investigation, is exactly the lover who shielded her from the burning fire in her previous life. Each floor hides the obsessions of wronged souls from that year: craftsmen buried alive, silenced maids, deceived hostages of vassal states... While solving the trap-filled dead ends in the tower, they uncover the royal family's hidden conspiracy of immortality. But Su Wan finds herself retracing the same sacrificial fate as her past life—this time, can Gu Zhao rewrite their destiny?
