Lin Xiuyuan transmigrates into Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio, becoming the tenth person to transmigrate.
The first nine already have three-foot-high grass growing over their graves.
He has no golden finger, only two things: a mind that refuses to believe in the supernatural, and a modern scientific education.
The fox demon Bai Xiaolian unleashes three hundred years of seductive arts. He takes her pulse and diagnoses her: "Hyperthyroidism, iodine deficiency, and nervous exhaustion."
A painted-skin ghost changes her face in the middle of the night. He picks up a bottle of strong liquor and lime slurry: "Fungal infection. Disinfect it first."
Yingning laughs until she is shaking like a flower in the wind. He analyzes her: "Intermittent hysteria. I recommend acupuncture."
A netherworld officer oversteps his authority to seize a soul? Lin Xiuyuan turns around and points out a loophole in the document's approval signatures, sending the arrest warrant back for review on the spot.
The demons and monsters of the world are dumbfounded. Why isn't this man afraid?
Lin Xiuyuan: "What is there to fear? Everything has a cause. Demons and monsters are just illnesses, when you get right down to it."
Only Bai Xiaolian knows that every time this scholar, who firmly believes "there are no ghosts in the world," writes an Analysis Report on the Causes of Anomalous Phenomena, he somehow manages to exorcise demons and monsters by sheer accident.
Until one day, he uncovers the cause of death of the first nine transmigrators.
On the cold, impersonal list, the tenth name is his own.
Either die according to the script, or flip the table.
When I was a kid, I used to watch the ghosts and the atmosphere in the Liao Zhai TV series. After reading this novel, I felt it was a bit too funny. The atmosphere was perfect and I could learn knowledge.
