In a serene and ancient place stands an old Taoist temple that has weathered the vicissitudes of time. The temple is surrounded by towering trees, as if telling ancient stories. The walls of the temple are covered with moss, which are the marks left by time. Not far from the temple, there is a quaint little village where the villagers live a simple and peaceful life.

This little village has a long history. Generations of villagers have passed down ancient skills and traditions. Every year on Halloween, it is the liveliest time in this little village. The villagers will busily make various pumpkin lanterns and use them to decorate their houses and streets to drive away evil spirits and welcome a new beginning.

This year on Halloween, the entire little village is immersed in a joyous atmosphere. The villagers are all busy, picking the biggest and roundest pumpkins and carving various exquisite patterns with sharp knives. Some pumpkin lanterns are carved with cute grimaces, some with mysterious symbols, and some with beautiful flowers. These pumpkin lanterns are shining with a warm and mysterious light under the night lights.

Just when the villagers are busily making pumpkin lanterns, He Xiangu, the Taoist deity, happens to pass by this little village. He Xiangu is wearing a light blue long dress with a white ribbon tied around her waist. Her long hair cascades down her shoulders like a waterfall. Her face is beautiful and gentle, and her eyes reveal wisdom and compassion. He Xiangu is attracted by the lively atmosphere of this little village. She strolls on the streets of the village and admires the pumpkin lanterns made by the villagers.

Suddenly, He Xiangu's eyes are attracted by a particularly beautiful pumpkin lantern. This pumpkin lantern is round and full in shape, with exquisite patterns carved on it, exuding a mysterious aura. He Xiangu curiously approaches and observes this pumpkin lantern carefully. At the moment when she gets close to the pumpkin lantern, suddenly a dazzling light emits from the pumpkin lantern.

He Xiangu widens her eyes in surprise. She feels a powerful force emanating from the pumpkin lantern. She carefully reaches out her hand and gently touches the pumpkin lantern. When her finger touches the surface of the pumpkin lantern, she feels a warm air current flowing into her body along her finger. He Xiangu closes her eyes and feels this force with her heart.

After a moment, He Xiangu opens her eyes. She discovers that there is an ancient immortal law manual hidden in the pumpkin lantern. This manual is emitting a golden light and is covered with mysterious symbols and patterns. He Xiangu knows that this manual must be of extraordinary value. She carefully takes the manual out of the pumpkin lantern and holds it in her hand.

He Xiangu carefully flips through this immortal law manual and is deeply attracted by its contents. This manual records many ancient immortal laws and wisdom. These immortal laws and wisdom can help people obtain inner peace and strength and also help people better understand the mysteries of nature and the universe. He Xiangu decides to give this manual to the Taoists in the Taoist temple and let them continue to inherit the wisdom of Taoism.

He Xiangu takes the immortal law manual and comes to the Taoist temple. When the Taoists in the temple see He Xiangu, they all respectfully salute. He Xiangu hands the immortal law manual to the abbot of the Taoist temple and says, "I found this manual in a pumpkin lantern. I believe it must be of extraordinary value. I hope you can study this manual well and pass on the wisdom of Taoism."

The abbot of the Taoist temple takes the manual and says gratefully, "Thank you, Immortal He, for giving us this manual. We will definitely study it well and carry forward the wisdom of Taoism." He Xiangu smiles and nods, then turns and leaves the Taoist temple.

From then on, the Taoists in the Taoist temple began to seriously study this immortal law manual. Through continuous learning and practice, they gradually understood the mysteries within it. These immortal laws and wisdom not only helped them improve their cultivation realms but also solved many problems in their lives.

In this process, the wisdom of Taoism gradually spread to the entire little village. The villagers began to learn Taoist thoughts and methods. They learned how to maintain inner peace and kindness and how to live in harmony with nature. The life of the little village became more beautiful and happy.

And that ancient immortal law manual has also become a precious treasure of the Taoist temple and the little village. It witnessed the kindness and wisdom of He Xiangu and also witnessed the inheritance and development of Taoism. Whenever Halloween comes, the villagers will make more pumpkin lanterns, hoping to find treasures like that immortal law manual again.

Taoist thought emphasizes following nature and living in harmony. He Xiangu's actions precisely reflect this thought. After finding the immortal law manual, she did not keep it for herself but chose to give it to the Taoists in the Taoist temple and let them continue to inherit the wisdom of Taoism. This selfless act not only reflects He Xiangu's noble character but also reflects the core values of Taoism.

In this mysterious and fantastical story, the pumpkin lantern has become a bridge connecting He Xiangu and the villagers. It not only brings joy and surprise but also brings wisdom and hope. And the appearance of He Xiangu makes this story full of warmth and touch. With her actions, she interprets the wisdom and compassion of Taoism and also brings more beauty and happiness to this world.
