Lin Rao's husband died, and she soon followed him, her grief making her ill. But after dying, she discovered that the underworld really existed and that she carried the power of merit. She stayed there, determined to find her husband. So that he could remain in the underworld too, she gave him three lifetimes' worth of merit, hoping they could continue their relationship there.
She worked hard every day and occasionally took odd jobs at Granny Meng's shop, all to save up for a house and settle down in the underworld for good.
But when she finally bought a house and was about to surprise her husband, she found him tangled up in bed with another female ghost. Furious, she whipped them both and stormed out of the room, cutting ties with him once and for all.
She was distracted at work all day. Though she never made any serious mistakes, she frightened the surrounding ghosts, who all filed complaints against her. Her superiors had no choice but to transfer her to another department: the Eighteen Levels of Hell.
The ghosts were relieved when she left, but the junior ghost officials had plenty of grievances of their own...
