鬼戀俠情 (Guilian Xiaqing)

Synopsis:

(This might be the first of the five novels that are collectively known as The New Legend of Chu Liuxiang – see ‘Note’ on the main page of Book 4 – The Legend of the Bat.)

Zuo Qinghou was a famous martial artist in the Jiangnan region and the master of Cup-Throwing Manor. His beloved daughter, Zuo Mingzhu, died after contracting a strange disease. In the meantime, another young maiden, Shi Yin, also died from illness. At the moment of Shi Yin’s death, Zuo Mingzhu suddenly returned to life and claimed that she was Shi Yin. It seemed that if Shi Yin’s spirit has possessed Zuo Mingzhu’s body. Zuo Qinghou asked his close friend, Chu Liuxiang, to help him resolve the bizarre case.

Through his calm and wit, Chu Liuxiang gradually unraveled the mystery and learned the intricate love story involving young men and women from feuding influential families in Wulin.
