Lin Shou inherits his family's ancestral funeral home and curls up inside a coffin, clutching an urn.
> A client roars from outside the door: “Give me my money back! You promised to exorcise the vengeful spirit!”
> A chilling wind rises, and a century-old evil ghost bursts out of the coffin.
> With the client about to be torn to shreds, Lin Shou improvises and fires up a grill. “Good sir, care to try this?”
> When the ghost stops to chew on skewers seasoned with resentment, Lin Shou suddenly understands:
> Exorcisms cost money for everyone else. Mine cost lives, so I need to add more ingredients!
> Later, he develops a “Rebirth Feast”: hotpot in Meng Po soup broth, sashimi made from fish of the River of Forgetfulness, and dipping sauce sweetened with flowers from the Other Shore...
> When a rift in the underworld begins swallowing the mortal realm, all the cultivators discover in terror:
> The only one who can compete with the King of Hell for business is the once-timid barbecue stall owner.
