Please, Please, Please: Folk Taoist Arts Plus Horror
Something about a Taoist priest who knows magic arts and solves all kinds of supernatural cases among ordinary people. I’d prefer it to feel grounded and connected to everyday life. The key elements: folk traditions, Maoshan Taoism, and horror, really terrifying horror.

Feng Shui and Physiognomy with Theoretical Foundations, No Womanizing, and Supernatural Elements
Please recommend stories about feng shui, face reading, the supernatural, and ghost hunting, with a solid theoretical basis and no messy romances. I want a protagonist who can show off, paranormal mysteries, a fixed team, an overarching plot, and standalone cases. Add some humor, too, and touching cases that’ll make you laugh and cry. Something like "Chief Medical Officer".

The advantage of this book is that it has a stable atmosphere, is logical, and is not exaggerated. There is no forced cheating or mindless scares. Instead, it relies on traditional elements such as paper figures, ink marks, red lines, and hidden cuts to slowly build suspense. The protagonist is dealing with strange things while tracing the whereabouts of his old friend. The plot progresses layer by layer, and the foreshadowing is naturally buried. The emotions of the characters are real, the protagonist is calm and restrained, not impulsive or holy, the rhythm of the story is relaxed and moderate, and the more you read, the more immersive you feel. It is a very interesting Chinese suspense novel.
This book is a solid Chinese-style folklore suspense, with the secret technique of paper-cutting as the core, and the settings such as identifying names through the underworld and paper demons haunting people are grounded and not exaggerated. The protagonist Chen Zhi is haunted by inexplicable blackness. He follows the paper man and ink marks to trace the mystery of his deceased relative Chen Mo. The atmosphere is cold and restrained, and the more you read, the more immersive it becomes.
Very good, I added bookshelves, but there are too few, so I can only continue to update them.
It's very interesting to read, it really gives you a sense of déjà vu in Chinese horror. I particularly like supernatural novels related to paper figures. The stories and plots are connected one after another. I highly recommend it.

It's very interesting. The plot is not something that can be guessed at a glance. It feels very imaginative and has a good atmosphere. If you like paper-cut horror, you can jump right in. Highly recommended.
Chen Zhi's fight for life is so touching and full of foreshadowing
Paper-cutting to extend one's life is too good, and the folkloric and supernatural atmosphere is full of it, not bad, not bad
I really like this kind of Chinese suspense and supernatural novel [The Bird Eater]. The setting of paper cutting to suppress the house and the underworld cutting to claim life is so innovative. It perfectly combines traditional folklore with a sense of horror, and it immediately catches the eye.
It has a strong sense of immersion and looks good
