   ## The First Taboo in Folk Customs: Buried Alive Seven Times Before the Age of Nine, Just to Survive in Death Zones. On the eve of my ninth birthday, my grandfather had a rough stone coffin made and buried me deep in a mass grave. This was our family rule. From the age of three, every year before my birthday, my grandfather would prepare a different coffin for me: willow, cypress, sandalwood… until this cold stone coffin of the seventh year. The bottom of the coffin was filled with chicken bones, and then a layer of old square-holed copper coins was scattered on it. After I lay down inside, my grandfather covered me with a yellow sutra soaked in his blood, on which were densely covered small, purplish-black characters, all of them scriptures for rebirth and admonitory sayings. The coffin was sealed, and I was buried three feet deep. The first year, I was buried for only two hours. When I was dug out, my little face was blue and purple, and I was almost suffocating. My grandfather's eyes were deep: "If you are really buried alive, you must survive!" From then on, he strictly taught me the secret technique of breath-holding, helping me struggle to survive in that suffocating death zone. Year after year, the time within the coffin grew ever longer… This year, the stone coffin remained buried for a full three days. Yet, upon emerging from the ground, there was no birthday celebration. Grandpa silently led me through a day of wandering, finally stopping before a grand, secluded mansion—a plaque bearing the character "Cao" hung high above the gate. He stared at the vermilion gate, his voice hoarse: "They… finally made their move." I stood in the unfamiliar shadows, bearing the chilling breath and deathly endurance honed within me over seven years in the coffin, far exceeding that of a child. What kind of desperate situation would Grandpa, who had painstakingly orchestrated this long, arduous living burial, ultimately force me to… survive? Seven years of trials within the coffin, death forging a path to life. This taboo had only just begun.

   "Seventy-Two Transformations of the Earthly Fiends" is a classic supernatural tale. The protagonist earns a Shentong Express (a type of Chinese transit card) for each demon he kills. The author's writing is truly impressive; the scenes depicting gods, ghosts, and demons are incredibly vivid. It's a story of a small-time detective solving cases, without any cheap gimmicks or face-slapping moments. It relies purely on logical reasoning and keen observation to unravel cases from the smallest details, making it a very tightly paced police procedural.
