Mountain secrets, folklore, serial murders, and ghostly hearts! Local "monster reasoning", Mr. Bai Ze, a scholar of the Republic of China, reveals the truth behind the skin of ghosts! A game within a game, a game within a game, a case within a case, a secret room within a secret room, and no one survives in a series of twists and turns!
You must have heard of similar legends about monsters that catch sleepless children, a river god who controls the ups and downs of the river, and a fox fairy who can predict good and bad luck. Mr. Bai Ze is a folklorist who specializes in the study of legends of monsters from various places. He is keen to explore the buried historical events from the details of legends of monsters.
In the eleventh year of the Republic of China (1922), Mr. Bai Ze's good friend Tao Fangbi accidentally found a handwritten novel about ghosts and ghosts, "The Ghost Story of Shura". I thought it was just a horrifying story, but I unexpectedly discovered that its contents were surprisingly consistent with several unsolved mysteries from more than fifty years ago. And the last "no survivors" case was even more detailed -
In the ancient temple on the top of the mountain, the suspension bridge broke and became an isolated island in the clouds; visitors came at dusk and died in the secret room; on a thunderstorm night, no one survived... Only the Shura ghost, who came and went without a trace, disappeared in the morning mist.
Tao Fangbi studied for a long time but gained nothing. It happened that Mr. Bai Ze "escaped from marriage" to Nanjing. The two of them followed the pictures to discover a game within a game, a game within a game, and a case within a case.
Reader comments
It combines suspense reasoning with folk tales, spans 50 years, and solves cases through the fragments of a novel. It has both narrative tricks and character reasoning. In addition, the description of the social conditions and food of the Republic of China is also relatively high, which is indeed good.
I particularly like the descriptions of various monsters in it. It seems that I can really see those mysterious monsters. The process of Mr. Bai Ze and his friends solving the mystery based on a handwritten fantasy novel is also very exciting, full of thrills and wisdom. As mentioned in the book, "mountain secrets, folklore, serial murders, and ghostly hearts", it is really enjoyable to read!
It is a rare reasoning book suitable for repeated reading and consideration.
