Xin An, a famous surgeon from a traditional Chinese medicine family with a bright future, had been secretly murdered for breaking a fake medicine deal. When he woke up again, he was in another world.

Her face was covered with strange veined patterns cursed by the Beast God and evaded by her clansmen like a plague. This was not the worst case scenario. The clan had made a rule that if she was unable to find a partner that could accept her within half a year, she had to leave this place!

The Ghost Festival in Medieval China
Author: Stephen F. Teiser
Publisher: Princeton University Press
ISBN: 0691222177
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 295
Book Description
Largely unstudied until now, the religious festivals that attracted Chinese people from all walks of life provide the most instructive examples of the interaction between Chinese forms of social life and the Indian tradition of Buddhism. Stephen Teiser examines one of the most important of such annual celebrations. He provides a comprehensive interpretation of the festivities of the seventh lunar month, in which laypeople presented offerings to Buddhist monks to gain salvation for their ancestors. Teiser uncovers a wide range of sources, many translated or analyzed for the first time in any language, to demonstrate how the symbolism, rituals, and mythology of the ghost festival pervaded the social landscape of medieval China.

Getting an Heir
Author: Ann Waltner
Publisher: University of Hawaii Press
ISBN: 0824879953
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 249
Book Description
The need for heirs in any traditional society is a compelling one. In traditional China, where inheritance and notions of filiality depended on the production of progeny, the need was nearly absolute. As Ann Waltner makes clear in this broadly researched study of adoption in the late Ming and early Ch'ing periods, the getting of an heir was a complex, even paradoxical undertaking. Although adoption involving persons of the same surname was the only arrangement ritually and legally sanctioned in Chinese society, adoption of persons of a different surname was a relatively common practice. Using medical and ritual texts, legal codes, local gazetteers, biography, and fiction, Waltner examines the multiple dimensions of the practice of adoption and identifies not only the dominant ideology prohibiting adoption across surname lines, but also a parallel discourse justifying the practice.

Category : Religion
Languages : en

Part II on Buddhism deals with Indian, Chinese, Tibetan, and Japanese treatments of karma.
