   The story has such a powerful aftereffect that it keeps you up at night; every line is chilling. It's not the kind of jump scares that startle you, but rather it slowly drags you into a cold, dark abyss. After reading it, you'll find that fear is hidden in the details, and the more you reflect on it, the more your scalp tingles.

    Here are a few new short stories. "The Yin Contract Man" is adapted from my own true experience. "The Ghost Bride" was abandoned because I wasn't as brave as I was later; the scene was far more oppressive than my later experiences, so I stopped writing it. The story in that story was inspired by that experience. "The Ghost Village" is purely fictional. You can check them out if you're interested. As for why I had this experience, I won't go into details; it's the 21st century…you all know [laughs]

    "That's right." He dusted himself off, looking at Bai Su and Chen Xi. "I'm Lin Ci's boyfriend." He paused, then smiled, a hint of madness in his smile. "The Gu poison on her was from me." Chen Xi's eyes sharpened instantly. "What exactly do you want?" "Me?" Shen Xu lowered his head and smiled, a smile tinged with sadness and obsession. "Of course, it's to resurrect my sister." He raised his head, his eyes becoming somewhat vacant. "She loved opera since she was little. Isn't it strange for a Miao person to love opera?" "My parents thought so too." His voice trailed off. "I begged them for so long, and finally they agreed to send my sister to learn opera." "But…" He suddenly laughed, his laughter filled with despair. "My sister died on her way to learn opera. Haha… Aren't I happy? I killed my sister with my own hands!" Bai Su looked at him, a chill running down her spine. This man had gone mad. Just then, Bai Su suddenly felt someone tug at her sleeve. She turned around and saw Chen Xi. Chen Xi gave her a look, signaling her to run. Bai Su immediately understood. They were no match for Shen Xu. "Trying to run?" Shen Xu seemed to have expected this. He raised his head, his eyes coldly fixed on them. "No way!" With a wave of his hand, the Gu worms on the ground surged forward like a tide, blocking their path. "You've been discovered," Chen Xi said in a low voice.
