Taoism alone can easily lead to boredom, and making up stories based on the Taoist name is also ridiculous. The most rare thing about this book is that it combines old news from Taoist classics and interesting ghost stories. Among them are the whereabouts of royal Taoist monks in the past dynasties, the great case of the Republic of China, the burning of Baiyun Temple in An Shilin, anecdotes between Emperor Qianlong and Wang Changyue, the seventh-generation ordination lawyer of the Longmen Sect, iron cans for giving food and super-drawing prayers, and the three great ordination of "Primary Truth, Zhongji, and Celestial Immortal". All of the above become interesting interludes and realism-enhancing background to the book's main story. Story synopsis: An interesting story about how Gui Tiha Fang Qi dealt with various monster and ghost incidents, such as applying for a temporary residence permit for foreign ghosts, sterilizing a dragon that violated the family planning policy, and confronting PUA's own superiors, etc. There are major events hidden behind the small stories. The foreshadowing and reversal are all inadvertently. Volume by volume, the huge world view of Yaotijia's world unfolds. Character characteristics: The young man Gui Tiha and his female assistant who died young are caught in a bunch of goblins and ghosts catching horses every day. They are either eating melons or putting out fires.

"Enlightening the world and becoming an immortal" is a concept with strong religious and philosophical overtones. In Taoist culture, "enlightenment" is a long-term spiritual practice process. Taoist priests or believers understand the true meaning of "Tao" through the study of Taoist classics, observation and thinking of all things in nature, and self-cultivation in life. For example, in a secluded Taoist temple, Taoist priests stay away from the hustle and bustle of the world and engage in activities such as meditation and chanting to achieve spiritual purity and step by step approach the so-called "immortal" realm. However, the "immortal" here is more of a symbol of spiritual transcendence, wisdom and extremely high moral realm, rather than the image of an immortal who can soar into the clouds and ride the mist in mythology. From a broader philosophical perspective, "enlightenment in the world and becoming an immortal" can be understood as people overcoming desires and worries through constant reflection and learning in earthly life, achieving a state of spiritual freedom and personality sublimation
