THIS ADVENTURE IS DOWNRIGHT HAUNTING!The egotistical dragon Xue Xian and the memory-wiped monk Xuanmin are still stuck together—and so are the many mysteries trailing in their wake. Their ghostly companion, Jiang Shining, seeks peace for his departed parents, but first he must find the last of his living kin. Meanwhile, Lu Nianqi, now empowered and burning for answers, is determined to uncover the truth behind the deadly tomb on Fentou Island that took his brother’s life.
The party’s quest takes a bizarre turn when they hitch a ride with a troupe of theatrical ghosts—only to end up in a cursed village overrun with restless spirits. The deeper they dig, the more the threads begin to tangle…and point toward a single origin.
Why does everything seem to circle back to Xue Xian’s downfall? And what role does the enigmatic monk at his side truly play? One thing’s for sure: If they don’t kill each other first, they just might uncover the truth.
In this historical fantasy danmei (Boys’ Love), a monk with amnesia and two raggedy paper dolls inhabited by a dragon and a ghost embark on a journey to reclaim their former glory. But can they endure each other long enough to find what they seek?
Under the blue glow of dawn, Xue Xian—former dragon and current paper doll—is mere moments away from being kidnapped and exorcized. Except, Xue Xian has no idea! Instead, he’s cursed to be trapped in the form of a hideous paper doll alongside the bickering Jiang Shining, a former ghost indebted to assist Xue Xian in reclaiming his lost glory and, ultimately, avenging the wrongs inflicted upon him.
So when a monk with amnesia named Xuanmin—hot on the trail of an unknown curse—arrives at the burnt ruins of Jiang Manor, he quickly finds the source. Putting off the exorcism for his return, Xuanmin unceremoniously stuffs two crude paper dolls inside his pouch and heads back, none the wiser. Furious, Xue Xian grumpily stews in captivity and declares a new vow: To turn this high-minded monk’s life into a living hell!
Trapped as a traveling trio, they must suffer one another’s company while seeking answers to their growing list of questions: Will Jiang Shining be able to fulfill the unfinished business that tethers him to this mortal coil? Will Xue Xian be able to crack Xuanmin’s icy demeanor, and will he like what he finds if he does? More importantly still, who even is Xuanmin?
