Liaozhai Judge novel introduction
Lu Xiuyuan, an online editor, passed away suddenly and accidentally became the seventh judge of the Liaozhai Review Division in the Underworld. He held the judge's seal and retried all the old cases in "Strange Stories from a Liaozhai" three hundred years ago.
From the embroiderer Shen Xiang who was wronged for 300 years in the Painted Skin Case, to the fox fairy Su Jiu who had the temple property occupied for 400 years; from the smiling fox girl Ying Ning who was punished until her soul disappeared, to the sea maiden Ah Ha who was completely wiped out of existence. He tore apart the narrative filter of the original text, retrieved those neglected and distorted souls, and wrote a just judgment for them that was three hundred years late.
But every trial consumes his possibility of returning to the world. The mysterious disappearance of the first six judges also hides an abyss that he has never seen.
