About The Ghost Story: Lotus the Beauty
"Hua Gu Zi": An Sheng is a very kind-hearted gentleman. Once, he gave birth to an old musk deer by chance. The old musk deer's daughter, Hua Gu Zi, deeply remembered the favor of saving his life. One day, An Sheng got lost in the woods and accidentally broke into a maze set up by a snake spirit, where he unfortunately died. In order to repay her kindness, Hua Gu Zi killed the snake spirit and saved An Sheng. "The Third Lady of Lotus": Teacher Zong Xiangruo loved lotus very much, but he accidentally married a fox girl who had cultivated into a spirit. The fox girl was suppressed by the wandering monk and was imprisoned. Zong Xiangruo couldn't bear to see the fox girl suffer, so he begged the monk to release the fox girl. In order to repay Zong Xiangruo, the fox girl led Zong Xiangruo to find the Third Lady of Lotus, whom he had been dreaming about, and facilitated a beautiful marriage.
