Zhu Ling was born with a pair of unusual eyes. Her right eye sees the mortal world, while her left can see the spirits of the dead.
Her birth parents considered her ill-omened and abandoned her. Zhu Shan, her grandfather, who handled funeral arrangements, took her in and raised her. The two were deeply attached.
After her grandfather died, he became an official in the underworld. She stayed at the funeral home, working as an ordinary mortician and keeping the company of the dead day after day.
Others thought she had simply inherited Zhu Shan's trade. In truth, as she prepared the dead for burial, spoke up for wronged spirits, and helped evil ghosts let go of their obsessions, she was accumulating merit for herself.
She sought no glory in her next life. She only hoped to amass enough merit to earn a position in the underworld when her time came, so she could stay by her grandfather's side forever.
Everything in this world has its cause and effect.
Whether human or ghost, in the end, none can escape the difference between good and evil.
