After reading A Dream in Red Mansions, I wrote a short story based on my feelings, but they are definitely not the characters in "The Story of the Stone".
Please read the introduction:
It is said that peach blossoms express sadness, but who would have thought that the peach blossom spirit would be blessed by misfortune and become a beautiful woman. She married a Taoist priest who catches monsters. She thought her life would be comfortable, but unexpectedly the peach blossom seal lost its spell...
I really answered that sentence. Those who saw through it escaped into Buddhism. Those who were obsessed with it lost their lives in vain.
