The game focuses on Liang the bandit and his companion Tongue. They've been commissioned for a job by an unsavory merchant where they have to escort four girls to a wealthy lord in the city of Luoyang. To do this, they'll have to pass through Huazhou, Wenxiang, and Shanzhou.

At first, Liang thinks that the girls he's escorting is going to be sold to a wealthy lord and adopted and his daughters to start a new life. However, one of the girls named "Sui" reveals the truth to Liang. It turns out that the so-called wealthy lord is a swine demon who has been devouring young ladies for more than a thousand years. Sui goes on to say that each year on his birthday, the lord has human traffickers abduct girls from Shaanxi. One of those girls has been Sui's sister.

Sui hopes to convince Liang to end the escort and instead join her in assassinating the swine demon. This is to avenge not only her sister but also all those who have perished in recent years. While Liang wants to believe what Sui is saying, her story seems to have too many inconsistencies. As they go through this journey, Liang has to gather information and learn more about the truth. Only then can he make the decisions whether to help or not.
