Mục đích là để hiến tế - thế mạng mong mang lại bình yên cho dân làng. Nhưng may mắn thay, cô gái đó sống sót phiêu bạt, lang thang ở bên ngoài và không hề biết gì về thân phận thật của mình. Cô luôn tìm mọi cách để có thể vén bức màn về thân phận, con người thật của mình, nhưng tìm mãi không có cách nào biết được, mịt mờ ẩn hiện trong màn sương, nhập nhằng giữa ký ức và hiện tại. Rồi vào một ngày nọ, có một người đàn bà xa lạ tới gặp cô, ngỏ ý mời cô về Qủy Phường - nơi ăn chơi trác táng nổi tiếng của giới nhà giàu lúc bấy giờ, để làm việc, nhưng không phải làm kỹ nữ. Cô phải giả trai thà trộn vào chốn thanh lâu đầy rẫy những hiểm nguy để điều tra, thực hiện nhiệm vụ bí mật mà người đàn bà xa lạ giao, đổi lại cô sẽ được tiết lộ bí mật về thân phận của mình...." -- ǂc excerpt of a description from various websites
"That year, in Ly An district, there was a father who was a district magistrate who had the heart to throw his illegitimate child into the flood where a school of ferocious catfish was waiting. The purpose was to sacrifice - to replace her life, hoping to bring peace to the villagers. But fortunately, the girl survived, wandering outside and did not know anything about her true identity. She always tried to find a way to lift the curtain on her identity, her true self, but could not find a way to know, vaguely hidden in the mist, confused between memory and the present. Then one day, a strange woman came to see her, offering to invite her to Quy Phuong - a famous place of debauchery for the rich at that time, to work, but not as a prostitute. She had to disguise herself as a man and blend into a brothel full of dangers to investigate and carry out a secret mission assigned by the strange woman, in return she would be revealed the secret about her identity." -- cataloger's translation
