The Twelve Immortals X

[Not recommended for readers with low tolerance for disturbing content] [Not a feel-good story + suspense + oppressive horror + realism] In an old residential compound near Beijing lives a group of unusual "people." The compound's elderly security guard strikes a deal with Zhuang Yan, who has been reincarnating for ages with memories of his past lives. If Zhuang Yan can help send the "people" in the compound on their way, he will be freed from the torment of time, memories, and reincarnation. From then on, Zhuang Yan joins forces with Meng Po, ruler of the Yellow Springs, to guide wronged souls to peace. Along the way, Zhuang Yan meets Su Li, a little girl abused by her mother and tricked by her uncle into a ghost marriage; Xiaobai, a pregnant cat brutally killed by humans; Young Master Tang, rotting and crawling with maggots by the banks of the River of Forgetfulness, still waiting for a promise to be kept; the predecessors tortured to death by the Japanese in the Unit 731 laboratory; the nine-tailed Cixi, who plunged the Qing Dynasty into chaos; Gesang, a serf in Tibet before liberation, whose every organ was sacrificed to the gods and Buddhas; an orphan girl bullied to death by her husband's family, all working together; In the end, everyone realizes that the so-called Inferno is none other than this boundless, worldly human realm. This is my first book. I want to write it the way I want to.
