The Lamp That Illuminates the World of Yin and Yang

"The Lantern of the Yin Man: The Lamp that Illuminates the Yin and Yang Realms" is set in a small town in western Hunan at the end of the Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. It tells the bizarre experience of Shen Qingdeng, the ancestral ghost man. Yin walkers are special beings who walk in the gap between yin and yang. They rely on a thousand-year-old "soul lamp" to communicate between life and death, extradite lost ghosts, and maintain the balance between the two worlds. Shen Qingdeng has inherited the secret skills of lanterns and walking in the underworld since he was a child, but because of a childhood disaster, he is afraid of the underworld and just wants to live a stable life in the small town. However, a sudden serial disappearance broke the calm - the residents of the town disappeared one after another at midnight, leaving only a faint trace of black ash at the scene, and the missing persons were all related to a banned "Yinhe Festival" a hundred years ago. As the investigation deepened, Shen Qingdeng was forced to relight the soul lamp and step into the dangerous underworld. He discovered that behind the disappearance, there was a huge conspiracy that spanned Yin and Yang: someone wanted to use the Yin River Festival to open the passage between Yin and Yang, use human sacrifices to awaken the sealed evil gods of the Yin world, and seize the power of immortality. Along the way, he encounters all kinds of ghosts: the obsessive embroidery ghost, the Yin soldiers guarding the secret treasure, and the shadow monsters who feed on lies; he also gets to know partners with strange powers: A Yao, an orphan girl who can channel spirits, Xuan Yangzi, an old Taoist priest who knows the secrets of Yin and Yang, and Qin Feng, a corpse exorcist with a mysterious identity.
