share time: 2025-11-22 00:30:25

Xuan Qing, an 800-year-old Taoist priest who guarded Qingxu Temple for a millennium, is forced down the mountain with half a family jade pendant when the temple is demolished by real estate developers. He plans to lie low as a "traditional Chinese doctor, but runs into Lin Xiaoman, an intern reporter haunted by evil spirits—who’s the reincarnation of the little girl he saved 500 years ago! Worse still, the demon he sealed away has escaped and is tracking him via the jade. Caught between modern chaos (not knowing how to pay with a phone, being called a fraud) and karmic ties from the past, Xuan Qing must use ancient magic to solve new problems and help Lin unlock her past life mysteries… And that half jade pendant? It seems to hold secrets about why his temple was destroyed.
