In this historical fantasy danmei (Boys’ Love), a monk with amnesia and two raggedy paper dolls inhabited by a dragon and a ghost embark on a journey to reclaim their former glory. But can they endure each other long enough to find what they seek?

Under the pale glow of dawn, Xue Xian—once a mighty dragon, now a handmade paper effigy—is moments away from being exorcised. The worst part? He doesn’t see it coming. Spellbound into his form alongside the ever-irritating Jiang Shining—a restless ghost caught up in the dragon's misfortunes—the two must navigate a perilous path to settle long-standing scores.

Enter Xuanmin, an enigmatic monk drawn to the ruins of Jiang Manor by the lingering traces of a sinister curse. Finding two crude paper figures he surmises to be evil spirits, he tosses them into his pouch, taking the dragon and ghost along for the ride. Furious at his new predicament, Xue Xian swears revenge: If he must suffer this journey, he’ll make sure the aloof monk suffers right alongside him.

Thus begins an unusual pilgrimage, where three unlikely companions—an exiled dragon, a restless ghost, and a monk without a past—must unravel the tangled mysteries of their fates.
