Zhao Lei is a courier on the verge of being fired because he gets too many “problem packages” to deliver. Then one day, he receives a parcel addressed to “Row 3, Plot 7, West Mountain Cemetery,” with “Lord Yama” listed as the recipient. He assumes it's a prank, but a shadow appears by the grave and signs for the package, then hands him a black token. “Next time, use the underworld route for your delivery.”
Thus begins Zhao Lei's career as a courier between the worlds of the living and the dead. He delivers pills to an old Daoist on a mountaintop and receives the Handbook for Couriers of Yin and Yang. He delivers a burial robe to a ghost bride and gains eyes that can see spirits. He delivers a package to a cultivation sect, and the sect leader personally comes out to greet him! Zhao Lei exchanges the yin energy granted by the underworld for extra years of life and cures his paralyzed father. When he teaches the supervisor who gave him a hard time a lesson at the courier station, the man is suddenly haunted by a ghost. And when the Blood Demon Hall tries to seize his packages, Lord Yama sends Black and White Impermanence to his aid!
“What? The Old Lord of the Supreme wants to send a package to Flower-Fruit Mountain? No problem! I'll drive the underworld delivery van over right away!”
