About This Novel
A blockbuster work by Meng Zhentapir, the author of "Onmyoji". It took 17 years and 2,600 pieces of manuscript paper to complete the masterpiece. Chen Kaige (director of "Farewell My Concubine"), Wang Huiling (Ang Lee's screenwriter), and many Chinese and Japanese stars will jointly create a movie of the same name that will be released at the end of the year. The sky and the sea are crossing eastward, the city of Chang'an is in turbulent waters, and the ghost feast begins. The black cat of Jinwu Guard Liu Yunqiao's family suddenly began to speak human words. The Taoist priest who rushed to drive away the monster was so frightened that he almost went crazy. Chunqin, the young and pretty wife of Liu Yunqiao, turned into an old woman with gray hair and chicken skin in front of everyone. While singing "Qingping Diao Ci", she danced in a similar way to Yang Guifei. Kukai, an eminent monk who traveled to the Tang Dynasty from Japan, and Bai Juyi, who sought inspiration for the song "Song of Everlasting Sorrow", together uncovered the mystery of the demon incident and the death of Concubine Yang. All the resentment of monsters comes from spells and from human hearts.

A demon cat that speaks human language Turning the city of Chang'an upside down The poet Bai Letian and the monk Kukai join forces to investigate the case A picture of the prosperous Tang Dynasty slowly unfolds




The love tragedy is fake, but Bai Juyi's deep affection in the Song of Everlasting Sorrow is real.




Legend of the Demon Cat, boring but immersive, a great article, recommended, very brain-burning!




This is not Black Cat, this is Wolverine
