[Daoist master + fox spirit + crime solving + everyday life + folk traditions]
Lin Ye, the last heir of Mount Longhu, just wants to catch ghosts quietly in the city and coast through life.
Unfortunately, he’s so good at his job that he gets caught red-handed by policewoman Han Bing.
To make some extra money, he casually recruits a stunning fox spirit who’s been sealed away for a thousand years as his assistant.
She can fight, take a hit, and exorcise evil spirits. Best of all, all it takes is a lollipop to coax her into doing anything!
From then on, everything goes completely off the rails.
Investigating a bizarre murder?
Su Xiaoli: “Uncle, that bad thing smells stinky!” (She smacks it away with an airborne palm strike.)
Dealing with a vengeful evil spirit?
Lin Ye: “Xiaoli, go! Bite it!” (Su Xiaoli: “???”)
The policewoman’s worldview shatters. “Can you people investigate cases according to even the most basic rules?!”
Lin Ye calmly pulls out a talisman. “I handle what science can’t explain. I can also handle things science can explain. As for my assistant…”
He watches Su Xiaoli trying to chomp the evil spirit like it’s cotton candy and sighs. “Stop biting it! You can’t eat that!”
A last-generation Daoist master and a fox spirit who has lost a thousand years of memories join forces to uncover long-buried truths and face the impending apocalypse!
