    "This humble Taoist priest has done some calculations, and according to the divination results of @DouchengEightMaster..." Shanzi deliberately dragged out his words, tapping his thumb on his knuckles, "This place is heavy with yin energy, and weak with yang fire. Boss, if you want your business to last, you'll need to add some 'ingredients'." Biaozi's heart tightened, but he smiled and said, "What do you mean, Taoist priest? Our bathhouse uses a boiler and running water, how can it be heavy with yin energy?" Shanzi walked to the counter, stretched out two fingers, and gently rubbed the cuff of the blue shirt, a playful smile playing on his lips: "This shirt has been tainted by something it shouldn't have. Boss, this isn't a business opening, it's more like inviting a god but having a hard time sending him away. However..." He changed his tone, a sly glint in his eyes, "This humble Taoist priest can help you resolve this, but the divination fee..." "Money is no problem!" Biaozi patted his chest. "As long as our bathhouse can operate safely and make a lot of money, any amount is fine! Commander, bring the Taoist priest some tea!" The commander hurriedly went to pour water, but his hand trembled so much that half of the tea spilled.

    The first one isn't just about Cthulhu. The second one is a classic; when it comes to classic horror and suspense, Stephen King's books are a must-read. Three, four, five, six—the first suspense book I read when I was in school was by Cai Jun. I didn't expect that Tomato would have it. It's like a blast from the past. It's still relevant even now. Except for the last one. It's not scary, not supernatural, and not particularly suspenseful; it's just a friend's book that I brought along.

    Ye Ling, a hardworking office worker at a hospital, does the most tiring jobs every day, yet suffers the anxiety of a drug dealer, only to be paid a pittance. Her resentment is greater than any ghost's; she could easily support ten evil sword immortals… Until one day, she felt her vision double, as if she were seeing something else… Damn it, it really is a ghost! Her anxiety finally died… Ye Ling works like a slave, earning barely enough to feed herself, and now even ghosts are trying to scare her! "If I can't handle it, I'll just avoid it!" She thought. "I'm done serving you! Damn it, this lousy hospital is better off gone!" And so, Ye Ling left, abandoning what everyone considered a respectable job, and returned to her hometown… Luckily, she met a handsome ghost there, someone she could date, someone she could flirt with, since there was no responsibility involved (not really); so Ye Ling flirted with him whenever she had free time, but this male ghost was aloof and unapproachable. "Hmph, are ghosts this hard to deal with these days?" She thought. Until one day, the icy male ghost's disguise was exposed—damn it, he wasn't a ghost after all!
