@x1ngwu It’s a hollowed out human skin from a dead human isn’t it?
@x1ngwu Were there any recorded instances of demonic possession in Chinese literature?
@x1ngwu Who’s the guy looking in?
@x1ngwu I am reading this novel, hmm, there are many sexy activities. I like the story of a guy who makes love with skeleton ghost and fox demon.
