Based on a short story in Strange Tales from a Lonely Studio, the film tells the story of a scholar who dreams of becoming an immortal all day long. He likes to relax, hates work and loves to read books about seeking immortality and practicing Buddhism. One day, he was addicted to reading. In his illusion, he went to Sanqing Temple on the mountain and worshipped an old Taoist as his teacher. The old Taoist priest gave him an axe and told him to go up the mountain to cut wood tomorrow. Day after day, Wang Qi couldn't eat any bitter food, so he wanted to sneak home, ignoring the two old Taoist priests who came to San Customs. He was busy hiding and saw them coming through the wall. Wang Qi was surprised. He asked the master to teach him how to walk through the wall, which is also considered as glad you came. Finally, he learned how to walk through the wall. The old mage advised him not to use it for evil, or the magic would fail. After returning home, he ignored his wife's advice and planned to use it to steal things. As a result, the magic failed and his head was hit against the wall.
Cheng Zhi, the artistic director of this film, is a well-known old artist, which needs no more introduction. Another Mr. Liu Yilong is the famous Kunqu Opera Little Face. The scholar couldn't stand chopping wood, so he ran and sang, "I ran away ...! "Later, when he showed off to his wife, he sang:" Go through the wall, I will go through the wall and run with it! " Wait, these Kunqu operas are all directed by Liu Yilong.
The whole movie is full of humor, among which the most classic passage is the story of learning the art of walking through walls and enjoying the moon and drinking with Chang 'e, and the fairy tale is vividly interpreted with childish puppets.
