Chun Sheng Lu: the Days Spent with Uncle Ying

The Republic of China was in turmoil, with warlords separatist rule, starvation and death everywhere, resentment growing, and ghosts from all directions taking the opportunity to cause trouble. Chun Sheng, an orphan from a water town in the south of the Yangtze River, was rescued by Lin Zhengying, a descendant of Maoshan who was hiding among the people, during a zombie catastrophe on a rainy night. From then on, he studied under a teacher and embarked on the mysterious path of "distinguishing qi, drawing talismans, and resolving grievances." Uncle Ying is also a strange person in folk customs. Drawing talismans is like waving a brush, chanting mantras is like singing, the peach wood sword cuts off evil spirits, and the ink pipe binds ghosts. Although he does not have the power to reach the sky, he uses his righteousness and superb skills to carve out a pure land for the people in troubled times. Chun Sheng followed Uncle Ying as he traveled around the world, from the cries of water ghosts in Qingxi Town to the invasion of foreign evil spirits in the Shanghai Concession; from the awakening of the Corpse King in the Corpse Expulsion Ridge in western Hunan, to the weird dragon veins in Beiping City. Along the way, he witnessed many strange things: floating corpses in the water town with combed hair and necks, resentful souls of ancient houses with embroidery that kill people, invulnerable golden corpse kings, and Japanese invaders' evil magic that uses dragon veins to cause trouble. Every demon subduing is a resistance to the injustice of the world; every salvation is a compassion for the suffering of all living beings. Chunsheng grew up from an apprentice who was afraid of ghosts to a gentleman who dared to use his yang energy to fight against the thousand-year-old corpse demon, while Uncle Ying spent his life practicing the belief of "keeping integrity and avoiding evil". The relationship between master and apprentice, the righteousness of family and country, and the warmth of the world were intertwined in the storm of the Republic of China, and the "Chunshenglu", which recorded countless strange things and truths, eventually became the most touching inheritance in the troubled times. This is a suspenseful horror epic rooted in folk customs. There is no systematic blessing, only good people's hearts and good techniques. See how Uncle Ying and his disciples used their meager efforts to dispel the haze in the dark age of warlords and Japanese invaders, so that justice and warmth can flourish in the Yin and Yang worlds.
