With a pair of cloth shoes and an old travel pack, the lone protagonist wanders the world by himself.
From a night spent driving evil from an ancient village by a long river to sheltering from the rain in a wrecked boat at a ferry crossing, what corner of the world is free of strange happenings too bizarre to explain? He's seen a vengeful female ghost clinging to a coffin and weeping, and encountered wild spirits who possess corpses and haunt the living. Armed with the Taoist arts he has learned, he vanquishes demons and evil spirits, severs karmic ties, and seeks justice for the wrongfully dead.
Then one day, while passing through a border town, he runs into a blue-eyed sorcerer who speaks broken Chinese and uses dark magic to bind the souls of an entire village and raise the dead. The protagonist breaks the formation and saves the survivors, only to discover that behind this sorcerer is a sinister sect that has operated overseas for a hundred years.
From then on, his ordinary travels take on a deadly purpose. As he roams across the land, he must fight not only native demons and ghosts, but also the dark arts from beyond its borders. See how this lone wanderer uses the mystic arts of China to overcome every bizarre peril!
