[Folk taboos + rules-based horror + satisfying face-slapping + one heroine or no heroine] Don’t go inheriting an old country house on a whim! Especially one where sobbing can be heard in the middle of the night and a creepy bronze mirror sits inside!
I’m Lin Mo. After inheriting my grandfather’s old house, I was plunged into utter desperation: the lights stopped working, my phone had no signal, and a ghost bride in red came knocking every night. On top of that, there was a whole host of terrifying folk taboos.
Never step on a grave in a mass burial ground. Never look a paper funeral figure in the eyes. The Li family’s dark arts target anyone who tries to uncover the truth!
Using the folk rituals and supernatural techniques passed down by my ancestors, I drove off corpse monsters, broke the paper figures’ evil spells, and face-slapped the Li family bullies, gradually exposing the injustice behind Su Wan’s drowning and the secret my grandfather had kept hidden.
It turned out the folk taboos the villagers avoided at all costs were actually life-saving charms, and the seemingly eerie events were cries from the wronged!
No cheap plot tricks, no saintly protagonist, and every chapter is packed with excitement. This ordinary person’s fight to survive the supernatural will keep you hooked!
The content is detailed and the author writes very well. Looking forward to more works.
