I'm looking for stories about the supernatural and folk traditions, such as spirit mediums, head-shaving barbers, corpse retrievers, and corpse-driving craftsmen. No need for Maoshan Taoist stories, since they're mostly like Uncle Jiu. I want highly rated stories. It doesn't matter whether they're finished, as long as they're good.

Reader note
A completed novel that I stumbled across by chance, set in a northeastern rural area. It begins with the difficult birth of the heroine. She was naughty and courageous in childhood, and often encountered strange things that other children could not encounter. In her dreams, she would receive messages from her ancestors and immortals, and some dreams would also correspond to changes in reality. The rhythm of the story is gentle, and the short stories are connected in series to grow, without any overly scary scenes.

The autobiography of a Taoist priest from Qingcheng Mountain tells the story of how he and his three brothers went to solve supernatural events, spirits, monsters, ghosts, etc. There is no heroine, no emotional line, the storyline is too detailed, the spells, and the techniques are quite professional. It also involves some consecration, ordinary people practicing, spell teaching, etc. You can judge the authenticity of the story by yourself. . .

When the rules and strange stories are wrapped in opera skins - you will die if you sing the wrong lyrics, you will die if you walk on the wrong stage, or you will even die if you applaud at the wrong time. Pei Qixian, who was holding the ancestral Nuo noodle in his hand, sneered: "What a coincidence, I specialize in treating haunted theaters." While others cautiously followed the rules, he tampered with the text of the play: "The King of Hell's order? Today I want to order the play of the King of Hell!"
