One day, Taoist Yimei was invited by people from a neighboring town to catch ghosts. Because the plague was spreading in the neighboring town, zombies appeared from time to time. Taoist Yimei took Ahao and the little zombie and set off.

Behind-the-scenes production
In Hong Kong, the traditional Maoshan zombie film has been repeatedly imitated by many imitators without innovation, and has gradually lost its audience. In order to prevent Hong Kong zombie movies from running out of tricks, Lin Zhengying would end his own life.
While maintaining the interest of local folklore, he made such films by integrating Western vampires and zombies into Hong Kong zombie films.
The filming of "The Taoist with One Eyebrow" took a year, and the crew had to work for more than 8 hours a day. During the filming, they also needed to build high platforms and plant banana trees. Once the work started, they couldn't stop. Moreover, there are more than 30 high platforms, all of which are made of heavy wood.
