[Sweet, flirtatious young widow x cold-faced, devoted male ghost]
Ruan Yuan prayed for forty-nine days before the tomb containing her fallen husband's clothes and armor. Who could have expected that night she'd be climbed into bed by her husband's ghost?
Eyes wide, she let him do as he pleased, thinking she'd had a sensual dream.
The next day, the playboy from the Zhao household tried to force her to marry him, but was suddenly struck by an evil spirit.
That night, the same man appeared in her home again and pressed her beneath him.
She whispered, "Husband, have you come back?"
They talked all night and decided to set off for Kunlun Mountain in search of the Immortal's Cauldron, hoping to use it to bring Han Zhi back to life.
But once they left Peach Blossom Hollow, all they saw was a living hell. They also met a foul-mouthed Daoist who kept suspecting that Ruan Yuan was possessed.
He wasn't wrong. There was a ghost with her, and it was her husband.
At the foot of Kunlun Mountain, Han Zhi carried Ruan Yuan, who had lost her memory after falling off a cliff, back to Peach Blossom Hollow. "My dear, I'll take you home."
They planted flowers in spring, watched the stars on summer nights, admired the leaves in autumn, and brewed tea in winter.
As the saying goes: Beneath Peach Blossom Hollow lie the loyal dead; in the Nuwa Shrine, souls find their way home.
