This work is part of the larger corpus of "Sou Shen Ji" (or "Records of the Search for Spirits"), which blends folklore, mythology, and anecdotes from various periods of Chinese history. The primary focus of these volumes is on the supernatural interactions between humans and spirits, gods, and mythical creatures, illustrating the profound beliefs and cultural values of the time. The content within these volumes features a tapestry of stories that include heroic deeds, the consequences of vengeance, themes of filial piety, and encounters with gods and demons. Characters range from skilled archers and noble kings to supernatural beings and common folk, each exhibiting traits and moral dilemmas that reflect the values of ancient Chinese society.
