The novel mainly tells the story of Zhou Xin, a scholar who is smart, temperamental, and dashing, and falls in love with the jade-faced nine-tailed fox fairy in Qingshi Mountain, but eventually falls ill and collapses. Zhou Xin's servants and tenants successively invited Lu Dongbin, Li Tianwang, Nezha, and Erlang Shen to suppress and drive them away. The Jade-faced Fairy also invited Fairy Yunluo and Fairy Fengxiao to help fight against them. After a fierce fight, the jade-faced fox was caught by the heavenly soldiers. But because Zhou Xin had always liked Jade-faced Fox, and Jade-faced Fox had always liked Zhou Xin until his death, the immortals were moved and they became an official couple. This novel has a strong folk flavor, a bit mysterious and strange, and also very touching and beautiful. It can be regarded as a good work among the vernacular fantasy novels.
