Shen Qing, heir to Yunhe Temple, appears to be a penny-pinching “money-loving Daoist priest,” but she secretly possesses mystical arts and protects the temple and the peace of the surrounding area. By day, she haggles over repairs, gold-plates stone lions, and negotiates revenue shares with developers. By night, she wields a peachwood sword to face the Blackwater Flood Dragon, expose a soul-swapping lantern plot, and hunt down a hundred-year-old evil spirit hidden in a collection of strange tales left over from the Republican era.
