No. 81 on the Yellow Springs Road 黄泉路81号

Tales of a Spirit Medium 出马异闻录
From the professional perspective of a spirit-medium disciple, let me explain: How do possessing spirits take control of a medium? When possession occurs, is it the spirit itself that arrives, or one of its disciples? What abilities does a spirit-medium disciple have when not possessed? How should common ghosts encountered in daily life be dealt with? How can someone with no spiritual training draw talismans properly?

My Ancestral Shrine Connects the Three Realms, and All Beings Bow to the Heavenly Venerable 我家堂单连三界,众生叩首拜天尊
They were demolishing my family’s old home in Northeast China when I dug up an eerie ancestral register. Written densely in black ink on red paper were names like “Black Granny” and “Chang Tianlong,” and even “Emperor of Fengdu” and “King Ksitigarbha.” The demolition crew mocked me for my feudal superstition. That very night, every one of them died mysteriously. With no other choice, I set out an incense burner and made offerings. Then golden light rippled across the register: “The Age of Dharma

Because the corpse that should be lying quietly in front of him is now using a soy-sauce-dipped finger to write his name on the coffin lid. Meanwhile, his half-baked beauty of a partner, An Xun, is munching on sunflower seeds and enjoying the show. “Didn't you say you had Yin-Yang Eyes?!” Liu Buyi's voice trembles.
