Gosh. Luckily, it's not some ghost.

Episode 01
Mister? Mister? Wake up.
Mister?
Awake?
Mister.
Easy, mister.
Who are you?
To be honest.
I'm a fairy fox of one thousand years' cultivation.
But I don't wanna be an immortal.
Only want...
What?
Only want to experience the mortal world.
Please help me fulfill my wish.
It's...
If so,
you can just go downhill.
Help you?
How?
I don't know the rules of the human world.
So I'm afraid of being hunted down
if I give myself away by accident.
Therefore, mister,
can you take me to the mortal world.
And teach me how to love people.
But...
I'd like to be your maid, serving you.
Please don't refuse me, mister.
You know,
I won't refuse a beauty.
If you're willing to serve me,
I'll be good to you.
I've my own savings.
If you're willing to marry me,
I'll make you happy at any cost.
Really?
Sure.
Liu Suifeng!
You're on an official business. But molested the girl by this chance!
I have to tell Defense Minister.
Why you came out so early?!
Just a minute.
I would know whether she is a real fox demon.
Don't fool me!
You're a lothario.
I'm clear about that!
No wonder you volunteered to be the bait
on hearing that there is some evil spirit.
You indeed have other intentions.
Don't worry.
I didn't beat her severely.
She won't die.
Moreover,
just behave yourself, okay?!
We're officials!
Officers of the Plough Department, okay?!
What are you doing?!
As the military censor judge of the Plough Department,
I've caught countless men who deliberately mystified.
But never seen real evil spirits.
Today, I gotta check
whether she has a fox tail!
You rogue!
Stop that!
Yaoguang!
Enough!
This fox demon has committed lots of crimes.
And many victims don't know how they were possessed.
So I suspect she must have some psychedelics with her.
Failed in sexual seduction, then used the drug.
I have to check that!
I'm a woman, I can do that, okay?!
Get her!
Liu!
All your fault! She has escaped!
Listen to me!
If we can't get her back...
Tell the Defense Minister, I know!
You petty mortals.
Dare humiliate me like that.
Kneel down and beg for mercy now!
Or I will go wrathful.
You demon.
We've seen your tail.
How could you petty mortals see that!
You ignorant evildoer!
You just keep a fox.
And know ventriloquism.
How dare you deliberately mystify and do thuggee!
Even falsely claimed you're a fairy fox!
Deceived innocent villagers to give you money.
So bold of you! Even death cannot atone for your crime!
Yaoguang.
Clam down.
Don't beat her so hard.
Careful, okay?
Don't hurt this beauty's face.
Shut up!
So you're actually a cheater!
God! Not only a cheater!
But an arrant cheater!
Is that Buddhist Lion Roar
or Taoist Tempest Mantra?
I've been educated.
It is of course the roaring stunt
transferred from the righteousness I've learned.
What fucking righteousness!
Shame on you.
Why don't show your tenderness this time?
I've finally understood that.
What?
A face without makeup
is the best.
How is that?
You finally understand that.
Only girls like me, who never wear makeup,
is quite real beauties.
You're just a young girl.
Talk about it when you grow up.
Hurry up!
You got her.
Senior.
I'm back.
Let's go. Go.
Kaiyang.
When did you come back?
Did you greet his lordship?
We're just back, gonna report the job.
Sis Kaiyang, let's chat later.
Okay.
The Plough Department
You're back.
Dongming.
Greetings, Defense Minister.
Good girl, Yaoguang.
Look at yourself.
Yaoguang.
You'll be his leader in the future.
He should listen to you.
Really?
Yes.
You're back.
Behave yourself.
I was fooled by Yinguang again?
Yinguang, not funny.
Screw it!
Yinguang.
You're the vice defense minister, anyway.
Can't go back on your word.
Okay.
No.
Enough.
Come to the business.
Yinguang has awesome shapeshifting.
You did a good job
in the fox case.
Wenqu.
This is the second time you take Yaoguang to do the task.
How do you feel?
Thanks to my insight,
we could arrest the fox demon this time.
Otherwise, this dude
would have been confused by that girl.
Yaoguang, you're that awesome now?
Wenqu.
Yaoguang now is still that impulsive
when dealing with the case?
Kinda rash.
Acted recklessly.
Not that careful.
Not that observant and alert...
Hey, come on!
Mind your words, okay?!
You...
You are...
I know that.
So you did this to test me?
Liu, pretended to be lazy and lecherous to...
Test me?
What cases our department deals with?
World-shaking cases.
Just an enchantress.
Don't need me, Wenqu Star, to solve it.
Surely it's a test for you.
Yaoguang.
You're one of our seven stars.
Without test,
how can we entrust you with important tasks?
I've put so much effort.
Every time I went on task with this dude,
it's always me who did a lot.
Yaoguang.
I'm satisfied with your job in this case.
Listen.
You go solve another case with Wenqu.
Then I'll allow you to handle cases alone.
Really?
Then is there any case to be handled?
You're so lucky.
There is a case for you to do right now.
What case?
A Day Ago
What happened?
My lord, there is a lunatic on the street.
Isn't this imperial censor Zheng?
Look.
Immortal.
This is an immortal.
Immortal!
Immortal.
Immortal. Immortal.
Anything weighing on your majesty's mind?
A memorial sent from the Document Office.
The magistrate of Taian County said that
a strange thing happened in his prefecture.
The imperial censor Zheng Ziwen was killed on the street.
The killer climbed up along a rope
and then disappeared in the air.
The magistrate was almost scared to death.
More resentfully,
ignorant civilians took the killer as an immortal
and kowtowed towards the sky.
Your majesty, how are you gonna deal with this thing?
I've told the Court of Judicial Review to investigate.
But such a strange case...
Your majesty.
How can you forget the Plough Department?
The Plough Department?
The thing is just like what I said.
The magistrate of Taian County reported it to the court.
His majesty told our department to go investigate it at once.
You two just came back. Should rest for a while.
But other people are not here.
And Kaiyang manages domestic affairs.
So how about...
Declining it?
I'm in. I'm in.
Yinguang, please let me go there.
I'll handle it very well.
Really?
My seniors.
You're so merciless.
I just nailed a case. Now you want me to go out again?
If so busy, I won't be able to get myself a wife.
Suifeng.
Why have to find a wife outside our department?
Look.
Our Yaoguang is quite a good girl, right?
I'm in.
Taian County
Taian Yamen
Didn't know you're coming. Sorry.
Please forgive me.
Minister Xue, we're not imperial commissioners.
No need this.
The Plough answers directly to his majesty.
Once you're outside the capital, should be imperial commissioners.
My lord, are you here for the case of
imperial censor Zheng?
Exactly.
I'm here to ask you to get together guards
to seal off the post house that Zheng has lived in.
And,
to collect relevant evidence.
I will. I will.
My lord, I'll let you know once there's any findings.
Since someone used the illusion effect
to disguise as our killer
and disappeared in the air,
it means that they wanted to make a scene
to draw attention from the Plough that manages strange and major cases.
So we gotta find out that man before people of the Plough do.
Otherwise we'll have endless troubles.
Imperial censor Zheng was killed on this street.
Maybe the clues are hidden in this noisy market.
Enjoy yourself here!
I gotta go ahead!
Miss.
How much this flower is?
Two wen.
Miss, you're so ingenious.
Your silk flower looks so lifelike.
Two wen?
What a low price.
Sir, this is too much.
No.
Fresh flower goes with the beauty.
Without the flower,
I gotta give you this instead.
My dear friends!
Open your eyes.
Hold your breath.
This is the most critical moment.
Please witness this miracle along with me!
Rise.
Don't let go of any illusion effect practitioner.
Catch them alive.
My legs.
Isn't this miraculous?
My legs.
Where are you going?
Please.
Give back my legs.
Tell me.
Should I give it back?
Yes!
-Okay, -Please.
Give back my legs!
Bravo!
Tell me, isn't this awesome?
Let's go!
Emergency!
My friends, since you love this trick so much,
I hereby decide
to show you
the biggest trick of mine!
Don't be afraid.
Look carefully.
This is a rope.
Not a snake.
However,
although you've seen snakes dancing,
have you seen any rope dancing?
No.
Alright.
Today let me perform that to all of you!
Great!
Come on.
It's really dancing.
It's crawling.
It's really crawling.
So miraculous.
The rope is dancing.
So miraculous.
Bravo!
So awesome.
Bravo!
Don't you find that weird?
Yes.
Can you let go of me first?
You're born with huge strength. A mortal like me can't bear it.
Bravo!
Let's go.
Split up!
Stop there!
What do you want?
You...
How could you...
I...
I'm just a street performer.
Why do you stop me, sir?
Miss, don't be afraid.
I don't have any bad intentions.
I just...
Help!
Miss.
I just wanna ask you a question.
I can swear to god that
I have no bad intentions towards you.
Really?
Sure.
Can't be truer.
Stop crying.
I'm always tender to women.
Seeing you crying like this,
I'll feel bad.
Be together!
Why are you here?
That brat ran so fast.
I lost him so soon.
That brat is so clever.
What should we do?
What a rare scene! You ask me questions?
The more experienced one shall be the teacher.
You're a girl.
Must be more thoughtful than me.
I'm thoughtful?
Seriously?
Well, look, shall we find more people to help us?
No more people!
You mean...
Yes. Yes.
Them!
Why are you so weird today?
No. You thought too much.
What's your name?
Why do you ask this all of a sudden?
I'm standing here.
Just for a while.
Then you can't recognize me?
Right?
Who are you?
How could you get rid of the drug so soon?!
Little girl, you're indeed not that simple!
You can use sorcery?
What sorcery?
Good men never fight with women.
And never risk their life!
See you!
Stop there!
Stop!
Who are you?
Who am I?
I'm...
I'm your closest one.
You can't recognize me?
Dad?
Impossible.
You can't be here!
Why impossible?
Look at you.
How improper!
As a girl,
running about in the martial world,
you've brought shame on our family!
I think,
I've really spoiled you!
How about...
Going home with me?
So I can teach you a good lesson.
Let's go.
That sorcery brat again.
Stop there!
Playing your trick again?
Why so angry?
You may not get married like this.
Have you seen that brat?
Stop there!
Tell me.
What's my name?
What, your name?
You don't know your name?
Have you seen that brat?
Hurry, tell me,
what's my name?
Fine. Fine.
What are you doing?
You're Yaoguang.
And yours.
My name?
Are you insane?
Liu Suifeng.
What's your biggest hobby?
Read classics.
Zither. Chess. Calligraphy. Painting.
Bullshit!
Alright. Alright.
I do like classics, zither, chess, calligraphy and painting.
But it gotta be done with beauties.
Must be with beauties.
Scum, now I know it's you.
What's going on?
Are you insane?
That brat cheated me by turning into you.
And then scared me by turning into my dad.
So how could I know if you're you?
You're so young. That's called illusion effect.
That girl.
How could she even beat her father?
What a crazy woman.
Are you done?
Keep coming after me.
Follow our superior's order. Catch him alive!
Really not a sorcery?
Not a sorcery.
But illusion effects.
The one good at this trick
can influence the other one
through the latter's moves,
language and eye contact,
thus makes him trapped in illusions.
The reason why he turned his back on you
is he didn't know you.
Didn't know your family.
So he just said that vaguely.
I'm your closest one.
Dad?
Yes.
He didn't turn his face to me
until I said dad.
If he's really the killer,
why he showed off
by performing on the crime scene?
