In the Qing Dynasty, after failing to become the top scholar in the imperial examinations more than ten times, Zhu Xiucai (Huang Baiming) angered his father to death and his wife to death. He also committed suicide by hanging himself in a temple. As a result, he could not be reincarnated, and his soul was attached to the hemp rope he used when he committed suicide. Time came to the 1980s. Hong Kong high school girls Lin Xiaohua (Li Lizhen), Lin Qingqing (Luo Mingzhu) and Yan Ruyu (Lin Shanshan) encountered a storm on their summer trip. To avoid the rain, they broke into the temple where Zhu Xiucai committed suicide. After the rain, Lin Qingqing brought the hemp rope with Zhu Xiucai's soul into the room in a panic, causing screams. However, as the communication deepened, they gradually became friends with Zhu Xiucai, and through each other's encouragement, they became more clear about the next path to take - of course, there were many jokes in the process.
