With no other choice, you agreed to his demand, thinking of sorting this matter out later. Still, little did you two expect, that turned out to be the last time you met until you'd meet again after your deaths, for you then followed the young lady to Jiangnan following her marriage. "On your way back from Dongfu, you met your lover, Tian Liu, who then took you aside for a tryst before he quietly took the golden hairpin you were still wearing. He wanted it for a token of engagement, although he wanted only to tell you sometime later about it, not knowing that it was, in fact, an item that you took without your young lady's permission. One day, Tian Liu had a bad luck in a gambling house and lost all his money, but he was desperate to wi

Out of the wandering spirits and ghosts in this vicinity of Tangshan, there were seven female ghosts who were known as the Seven Sisters of Tangshan. This female ghost is the youngest of them.

There were terrible floods every year then at the Huan Xiang River that the main bridge of the town of Yahongqiao (the name of a place; literally the Bridge of Abundant Birds) would be flushed away by the strong current every time. Every year the town would have to rebuild the bridge. But without the bridge ready, some people began offering services of ferrying people across the river. Business began to boom for them. Then one day, a merchant took a ride on one of these ferries and accidentally dropped the counterweight of his weighing scale into the water. But strangely, the counterweight floated on the surface of the water instead of sinking. Some onlookers witnessed this and the me

The money will be yours if you dare to come to collect it at night. But if you are afraid of coming here at night, I will take back the money tomorrow.' The walls of the factory were still not completed then, and we could see the gravestones clustered around the vicinity outside the compound of the factory. But to drain water out of the construction site, the workers had dug a hole under the walls of the compound and had a metal grill installed. The rainwater from the compound flows through this drain that led into the graveyard. This caused a hole to appear at one of the graves just beside the channel. At that time, the gates of the factory were blocked by heaps of building materials. If someone
