After Gu Yu escaped the abusive orphanage, he was chased and hid in an abandoned village.
When the original villagers saw him, they were not angry at all; instead, they felt sympathy for him and agreed to adopt him.
He thought he could finally live like other children, with parents who loved and cared for him.
But then—
The fat dad taught him how to write an essay, and he wrote a short, sharp ghost story that scared the Chinese teacher so badly she didn’t sleep all night.
The beautiful mom taught him how to make a hand-copied poster, and he stamped seven or eight bloody handprints on it, frightening the art teacher so much that she almost had a seizure.
...
Anyone who had bullied Gu Yu would be plagued by nightmares that night, chased by all kinds of ghosts for eight streets.
Even after discovering that the family in the village was all a little off, Gu Yu still loved them deeply.
Then one day, Gu Yu brought his partner home.
His partner was a Taoist priest, and on his first visit, he almost pulled out his ghost-catching gear and took out the whole family.
#Parents who can’t even solve elementary school math problems are top-tier ghosts whose names alone can make humans piss themselves#
#Later, the little Taoist gave the parents gifts: ten thousand gold-and-silver paper ingots, and 365 pairs of incense and candles per elder per year#
