After graduating from university, Ying Xu transmigrated to ancient times and became the new owner of a rundown Taoist temple on the verge of going bankrupt.
Though the temple stood in the middle of the capital, its incense burners were cold, its worshippers few, and its debts piled high.
Ying Xu, descendant of a famous family of charlatans: "…"
He rolled up his sleeves and got to work, hawking his services beneath the overpass.
Exorcise ghosts, tell fortunes, read feng shui. Make a fortune and build a comfortable life.
From curing infertility in pigs and dogs, helping livestock give birth, pretending to be a dutiful son at funerals, and casting divination for exam answers,
To building temples, gilding statues, establishing a government office, recruiting ghost soldiers, hiring protectors, and currying favor with every god he could find...
From an unknown performer on the fringes to the professional standard for all his peers...
Ying Xu: After all, my goal is to grow big and strong and make this the number one Taoist temple in Daxia!
*Set against the backdrop of Taoist mythology
Theme: As long as life endures, so does the struggle
