Dream of Red Mansions Sequel: the Disabled Monk Returns to the Stone

This sequel follows Cao Xueqin's first 80 chapters and focuses on Baoyu's fall and awakening after the fall of the Jia family. In the past, Master Yihong was imprisoned, experienced the confiscation of his home, separated his relatives and friends, and felt the harshness of the world. It lays out in detail the tragic process of "Suddenly the building collapsed like a lama" and the final ending of "the vast white land fell and the earth was really clean". It deeply explores the inevitability of fate and individual struggle, the illusion of love and spiritual liberation, the decline of the aristocracy and the glory of human nature in desperate situations. It is not only a tragic family epic, but also a spiritual epic in which a "stubborn stone" completes its final experience in the human world and finally "channels" enlightenment.
