Synopsis

No romance, a lighthearted and funny ensemble ghost-hunting story.

After defeating a host of ghosts in the underworld, the ancestors of the Liu and Han families snatch up a major project: transmigrate to ancient times and earn merit.

On the very day the project is awarded, Liu Yue is knocked unconscious in a gauntlet of attacks by the Seven Great Ghost Kings. When she wakes, she finds herself in ancient times.

Once she learns why she’s there, she plans to head back to the underworld and settle things with her ancestors in a no-holds-barred match. But it turns out she can’t go back.

Since she’s here, she might as well make the best of it. Forced to accept this absurd reality, she finds her hapless best friend, who works as a coroner at the Dali Temple.

Then she discovers she’s the long-lost twin sister of the Dali Temple’s deputy minister.

If she can accept transmigrating, what’s one little change of identity?

And so, she and her best friend join forces to start earning merit in ancient times.

After surviving a terrifying incident at an abandoned temple, her stepsister gets a sudden idea: she wants to open a theater called Ghostly Tricks.

As the name suggests, where are the ghosts supposed to come from?

Liu Yue and Han Xing try to play dumb and wriggle out of it, but who knew that seemingly harmless Liu Hanyu had a shameless side too?

She grabs both of us by the legs with her hands. “Sisters! You’re my real sisters! Starting a business is so hard! Please help me, have pity on this poor girl and all those poor ghosts!”

Sigh, what else can we do?

We’ll just have to earn merit with one hand, catch ghosts with another, build a business with a third, and solve a few cases along the way.

Sigh, why do I feel like I’ve turned into the Thousand-Armed Guanyin?

I can't remember the male or female lead's names. The cannon-fodder character is a woman named Jia Youshan. The man might be called something like Liangxin. There's a cute female supporting character whose name has something like Shuangshuang in it. They go through lots of different settings: the Cat-Faced Granny, the Saw Killer, the Old Corpse in the Mountain Village, Sadako, Silent Hill, and so on.
