Shiyi, a Taoist priest from White Crane Temple, and Nima, a monk from Demon-Subduing Temple, were both men of the mountains who should have been living ascetic lives. Instead, they stepped into the vast world of human affairs for the first time.
They arrived in a modern city where ghosts and livestreaming coexist, and demonic energy mingles with Wi-Fi.
Shiyi carries a peachwood sword, but has to learn to scan QR codes with his phone to capture demons. Nima carries a purple-gold alms bowl, but is forced to start food livestreams between ghost hunts. Zombies dance at nightclubs, while fox spirits work overtime in office towers.
Demon hunting becomes a show, and guiding ghosts to the afterlife turns into comedy.
On this exorcism journey full of twists, the ones most in need of “subduing” may be the convictions and prejudices these bickering partners carry deep inside. When a peachwood sword meets a charging cable and prayer beads encounter a smartphone, a hilarious tale of tradition and modernity, faith and daily life, is about to unfold.
It's very beautiful, go and see it! ! !
