- 101 The Language of the Three Corpses 三尸语 You’ve heard of people who died with their eyes open, but have you ever heard of a dead person whose mouth wouldn’t close?

No Way Out, So I Opened a Shop to Read Feng Shui and Catch Ghosts 没活路了，我开个店看风水捉捉鬼
The evil ghost’s face grew even more hideous and terrifying. Its skin began to peel away, revealing bright red muscle and stark white bone beneath. The flames in its eyes blazed more fiercely, as if they were about to shoot out.

- 103 What's Wrong with a Paper Effigy Shop That Reads Feng Shui and Catches Ghosts? 纸扎店怎么了也看风水也抓鬼 The evil ghost’s skin was an eerie bluish-black, its eyes blood-red, and black mist poured from its mouth. Its teeth were as sharp as knives, still stained with blood. Chen Yu was so terrified by the sight that he couldn’t move. All he could do was watch as the evil ghost slowly closed in on him. The evil ghost stretched out its long, slender claws, their nails sharp as hooks, and lightly traced Chen Yu’s face. A stinging pain flashed across his skin, and a streak of blood appeared.

- 104 Even Ghosts Get a System 鬼也会有系统 Ghosts and monsters are divided into different ranks according to how they came into being and the strength of their abilities. The lowest rank is “Wandering Spirits.” They are usually formed from people who died with deep resentment, and their powers are weak. They can only frighten people by causing minor supernatural phenomena, such as making lights flicker or producing strange sounds. The next rank is “Vengeful Ghosts.” These spirits often died violent deaths and harbor profound resentment. 1Reads—Score—Shelves

He was 23, and had been idling away his days in the shop since he was 18. He was a terrible student, had no lofty ambitions for the future, and lived like a contented couch potato. Lin Yu spent his days tinkering with the paper figures and horses in the shop, occasionally chatting with the village elders. Life was as calm as still water. Then one evening, that peace was broken.
