Xie Changfeng, the young Taoist priest of Qingfeng Temple, only wants to live a peaceful life looking after his temple. Yet one strange incident after another in the countryside keeps finding its way to his doorstep. From water ghosts demanding lives at midnight to corpses rising in old houses and evil gods causing trouble, supernatural mysteries never cease. Armed with a copper-coin sword, talisman papers, and a gourd, he descends the mountain to exorcise evil spirits. Along the way, he befriends Xiao Bai, a little fox spirit, fellow Taoist practitioners, and an elderly scholar imbued with righteous energy. The Five Manifestations Gods, the Five Immortals, and an evil straw-sandal god appear one after another. Meanwhile, a fire centipede and a Heavenly Eye Pearl hidden deep within Hongwu Dun lead to a long-buried secret. Amidst humorous banter and magical battles, the young Taoist priest gradually uncovers the conspiracy behind the demons and evil spirits, protecting the peace of the countryside.
