The Xiong family on Xichuan Road in Jiannan was once a family of officials. However, the family fell into decline. Strange things happened frequently in the empty house. Doors opened and closed by themselves. There were often shouts at night, and there were even sounds of joking and playing the piano. The owner moved out, leaving Uncle Gu alone to look after the house.
Xiong Yunpeng, the nephew of the family head, once studied Taoism in Qingcheng Mountain with Baimei Taoist for more than ten years. His Taoism is profound but few people know it. He asked Uncle Gu to pay attention to strange things in the house. After Uncle Gu saw the lights flickering upstairs and informed him, Xiong Yunpeng went inside to investigate despite the dissuasion.
He bumped into Liang Chunhong's family of four having a banquet at his house. After some dealings, Xiong Yunpeng fell in love with Liang Chunhong's niece Wei Chunhong at first sight and behaved inappropriately. After that, he cared about Wei Chunhong and moved into an empty house. He was not afraid of ghosts at night. Later, he finally met Wei Chunhong. The two expressed their feelings to each other, but Liang Chunhong broke it.
Wei Chunhong left with her family, but Xiong Yunpeng moved into an empty house and still hasn't forgotten it for more than a year. During the Ghost Festival, he rescued a little monkey that was being chased by a big dog, and discovered that it was Wei Chunhong. Wei Chunhong, who was originally transformed into a spiritual monkey, was unable to stay with him because of hardships.
Two years later, Liang Chunhong's son Meng'er asked for help, saying that his father was going to be in trouble and needed to save a little monkey captured by He Jiajun. Xiong Yunpeng initially refused due to past grudges, but under Wei Chunhong's persuasion, he asked for a little monkey from He Jiajun and rescued Liang Chunhong, who turned into a monkey.
In the end, Liang Chunhong's family moved back to the empty house of Xiong's family, and the two families were harmonious. Under the guidance of Meng'er, Xiong Yunpeng passed the Jinshi examination at the age of thirty-six and became the chief minister of the cabinet.
