    Northeast China's shamanic tale, a blend of folklore, the supernatural, and hilarious everyday life, 22 chapters released so far, grab it if you're looking for something to read. A gluttonous shaman versus a cowardly, adorable bodyguard—this pair of shamans could make me laugh for a year! "Roast chicken, fatty meat, candy, pastries—whatever smells good, I'll eat! The more fragrant the offering, the fiercer I'll protect it!" This one is called Huang Men Ji (Braised Chicken). The other is called Mang Wuji (Wild Wuji), who shrinks into a tiny huddle at the slightest gust of wind rustling the window paper. These are my family's two protective shamans—a gluttonous bandit and a cowardly, adorable bodyguard. Daily scene: Huang Men Ji squats on the stove demanding "crooked-necked little phoenix" (roast chicken) and "two bottles of 'Halaqi' (a type of slang term for spicy food), while Mang Wuji cowers in the corner. But when they actually fight, they can withstand the attacks of a thousand-year-old cult leader, run to find reinforcements, and even go to the underworld to snatch souls.
