[Chinese-style subtle horror, infinite strange tales]
Unhinged, beautiful male ghost gong x Frail, cool, reserved young shou
The Lin family's paper effigy shop in Longyin Town.
The elderly Mr. Lin, past the age of fifty, died, leaving his only son behind.
Before he died, he'd accepted a job and left it unfinished.
His poor, unlucky son
fell seriously ill. When he woke up, he found his father's corpse and the whole mess left behind.
The Wang family in town was marrying off their daughter.
They needed one wedding sedan chair, two paper horses, four boxes of dowry, and four bearers,
plus one matchmaker and two accompanying musicians.
The job was due in three days.
Lin Qisui stared at the colorful paper, frames, and paste scattered across the floor, and froze.
Paper effigies? He had no idea how to make them.
What should he do?
Naturally, he'd just have to wing it.
That night, Lin Qisui worked by lamplight when a man in blue suddenly showed up at his door.
"Close the shop after dark. No lamps at night. Don't make paper effigies after dark, and don't see the dead during the day."
"Lin Qisui, didn't you read the notes your father left behind?"
Lin Qisui looked up and saw a man of bewitching, ghostly beauty standing before him.
"I did," he said calmly, glancing at Mr. Lin, who lay in the coffin behind him.
"I just asked my father what to do if I can't finish the job."
The man raised an eyebrow. "And what did he say?"
Lin Qisui was about to answer when, out of the corner of his eye, he noticed that the man... had no feet!
His expression darkened, but the man smiled.
"Don't be scared, kid. Before your father died, he entrusted you to me."
"It's our first meeting. I'm Xie Changxi, a traveling doctor."
Lin Qisui nodded politely, then said,
"He said a doctor surnamed Xie would come by, and that he was good at making paper effigies."
Xie Changxi: ...

I'm really speechless about the direction of this plot [Split] Aren't we going to deal with Jing Yan? Why are we fighting with our own people [Split] I'm speechless if it's fake [Split] [Split]
After thinking about it, if I had not forgotten that promise back then, nothing would have happened later.
Really! Xie Yangui cleaned the little Qi Sui and gave it to him! Hahaha 🌈
I don't know why, but I can quite understand the villain going crazy.
Finished spreading flowers! So reluctant to part with it!
It should be he...😭 (*꒦ິ⌓꒦ີ)
Finished spreading flowers ~ a very beautiful and more than addictive article! !

It's such a clichéd plot, does it have to be a scene where you pretend to be different?
