As a panguan, a cultivator who resolves the regrets of the dead, Wen Shi has spent a thousand years ferrying the dead to their next life-yet he himself is trapped in an endless cycle of rebirth, missing both his soul and memories. When failed panguan Xie Wen answers his ad for a roommate, Wen Shi is drawn to the irritating young man despite his misgivings. But Xie Wen seems to have secrets of his own.secrets that might hold the key to ending Wen Shi's millennium of lonely wandering.
