This is a collection of Chinese stories that everyone should read. There are folk anecdotes that have been passed down for thousands of years: from the sorcerer who can "stack the Taoist method" and travel thousands of miles in a day but is repaid for his betrayal, to Chen Shiniang who is willing to sacrifice her life to save the people and finally ascends to immortality; from the master of Qinggong Yanzi Li San who uses three tiles to cross the Yellow River, to the painter Wu Daozi who paints donkeys to live and swallows to fly...
You will read about the ten brothers who each showed their extraordinary powers and wisdom to fight Qin Shihuang; you can also meet Pei Du who picked up gold and returned it without hesitation, and finally repaid his official duties well to the Duke of Jin. There are interesting stories about gods and ghosts here: Taishan stone can be used as a town house to ward off evil spirits, Zhong Kui catches ghosts to ensure safety, and Yue Lao pulls strings to seal marriages; there are also legends about mortals: the oil seller keeps his word and reincarnates to pay off debts for cattle, the righteous tiger serves relatives to repay kindness and guards the tomb, and even a fried dough stick hides the people's rejection of traitors and the memory of loyalty. These stories are hidden behind tea and meals in the streets and alleys. Whether you want to feel the whims and wonders of the ancients, or find warmth and strength in the stories, this book can accompany you in a fragmented time, into the vivid folk world, and understand the spirit of the Chinese people.
