Burning Rhinoceros

About This Novel
The book is divided into six short stories, namely: "Fox Lamp", "Sound of the Sea", "Huaian Terrace", "Epiphyllum Wine", "Flowers on the Wall" and "Heaven and Earth Prison". They are all stories related to mysterious people. The story originates from an ancient legend. It is said that all you need to do is take the pen soaked in spring rain, the ink in the hot summer sun, the paper blown by the autumn wind, and the inkstone covered in winter snow. Use this pen, ink, paper and inkstone to write down the knots in your heart, and burn them in the fire. Within a few days, a mysterious man appeared in front of the person who made the wish. Legend has it that those mysterious people are men, women, and children, such as an eight-year-old child, and an eighty-year-old white-haired old man. There are beautiful girls and there are suave young men. They all have different ages, looks, personalities, and even their magic skills are different. The only thing they have in common is that they are dressed strangely, and you can tell at a glance that they come from a foreign land. At the same time, these mysterious people have several silver rings on their wrists, ankles, or necks. The silver rings jingle and have a flawless luster. If you see a traveler of various shapes passing by your door in a hurry on a starry night, carrying a sack on his back and jingling silver rings on his hands and feet, then he is a mysterious person who is rushing to fulfill other people's wishes.

Like it very much
Can you continue writing? It's really good and many people want to see the sequel. I also really like every story in it. They are all so touching that I cried. I hope everyone can read such a good book, and I hope the story of this book can continue.
The little monster is very kind. Although it knows that Xiao Pu is not the person it originally knew, it still wants to save her. She is also a very good girl.
Seeing me always moved me to tears. The only thing that can transcend life, death and time is lovesickness!
A child without parents has long been the head of the family. How could Xiao Pu miss his parents? He just feels sorry for his grandma and doesn't want her to be sad about it.
It was so touching that it made me cry
The stories are all very well written and made me cry.
I highly recommend this book. Ah Chen's writing skills are very deep. The work does not follow the popular path. The story is warm and healing, but there is still a touch of regret lingering in my heart. After reading it, I was deeply inspired. Every word in it seems to be natural, with its own charm hidden deep inside. The characters laugh and curse, and are self-contained. It is difficult to think of who could write such a story.
Impermanence
Every story is wonderful. People in the world are ignorant and bring harm to others; but they are also sincere and kind, making people lovable. Everyone walks in the world without rehearsals or scripts. They live their own lives, whether they are sad or happy, whether they are successful in officialdom, ordinary or miserable. The so-called salvation can only be a change of one's own character. Once you figure it out, you will be open-minded!
I hope kind people can be treated with kindness
Man is really a complex creature, both good and evil, both irresistible and timid. As for the spirits, they may appear to be scary, but in fact they are the most innocent at heart. They don't know how to calculate and simply trust others. The fox's name is Hu Yingzhi, who was named by a child named Xiaoqi. Yingzhi just wanted to accompany her, so he came to visit her every night, but he got himself killed. It was originally a kind act, but in the eyes of humans, it was deliberately deceiving. Some people are like this, full of fear of unknown things, and just want to get rid of them quickly, even though the other person has done nothing bad. But this is so unfair to him. He gave him wine in return but poison. It's not wrong to be kind. I hope that the little monster will be treated gently in the next life and meet someone who will cherish him.
The old woman's love for her granddaughter is true. Even at such an old age, she is still seeking medical treatment. She doesn't even dare to open the door for fear that they will take away her granddaughter's life. It is not easy.
The author's writing is so good, the stories are all novel and interesting, and very beautiful.
I like the first chapter the most, it's very touching.
