The capital, early Republican era.
The yin-yang master Lin Qingxian is still an ordinary man with no supernatural abilities. He commits a grave wrong by giving false testimony in a murder case.
When a vengeful spirit comes to claim his life, Lin Qingxian finally sees the light. Once lazy and unambitious, he opens his Heavenly Eye and sets out on a perilous path of yin and yang.
The capital's Eight Great Hutongs are lined with brothels, a place countless men dream of visiting.
Among them, the Shuxian House is the most famous. Its girls are both beautiful and talented, and four of its finest are caught up in a series of eerie supernatural affairs.
Called in at a critical moment, Lin Qingxian helps the four girls safely survive their ordeals.
His first disciple, Liu Erfu, may be slow-witted, but he is utterly loyal to his master and repeatedly protects him with his own body.
His second disciple, Xiao Qing, is the story's golden finger. Once a Green-Robed Maiden among the Seven Fairies, she appears at a critical moment in the middle of the story and helps Lin Qingxian defeat even stronger enemies.
