Synopsis

During the era of the republic, the town of Changsha was guarded by nine families known as the "Old Nine Gates" (or the "Mystic Nine" Clan). They were incredibly powerful families who wield supreme power over everything in Changsha.

In year 1933, a mysterious train ended in Changsha station. The leader of the Nine Gates, Zhang Qishan (William Chan), who was also the army commander of Changsha station, started to investigate with Qi Tiezui (Ying Haoming) and they discovered a highly suspicious mine just outside of Changsha. In order to solve the mystery of the mine, they decided to engage the help of Er Yuehong (Lay Zhang), who was an opera singer that came from a family of archaeologists. However, Er Yuehong was reluctant to help them as his wife Ya Tou (Yuan Bingyan) was terminally ill. In order to procure the medicine for treating her, Zhang Qishan travelled to Beiping with Er Yuehong, Ya Tou, and Qi Tiezui, the eighth leader of the Mystic Nine; they met the young mistress of the hotel Yin Xinyue (Zhao Liying) there. The five of them later returned to Changsha and discovered how the mystery of the mine was connected to their families’ histories and the Japanese's sinister plot against Changsha.
