About this title

Synopsis

国风式寓言短篇故事集,用奇幻志怪讲述浅显易懂的道理。 《人蛊》中以人身为祭吊死在桃花树的爷爷,看似离奇惊怖,实则是爷爷对后辈温暖且沉重的爱意。无论爷爷变成什么样子,他永远都不会伤害自己的家人,会永远地守护着他们。 《人蛇恋》里张九的父亲是方圆百里内有名的养蛇人,但他却私底下与一条竹叶青好上了。面对人妖殊途的禁忌之恋,张九、张九的父亲以及竹叶青,又该何去何从？ 《五花肉之神》里人人都想得到的五花肉秘方,最后不过一句"人间有味是清欢"。湘爷说做菜跟过日子一样,有时候盐多一点,有时候糖多一点,各有各的好,各有各的苦。不过,从那个春天起,湘爷身后就多了一条尾巴。 《猪圈里的狐仙》人人都以为深山的老屋里拴着的是一只狐狸,却不知道众口铄金、三人成虎,说的人多了,狐狸也能变成人,同样人也能变成被圈养在猪圈里的畜生。 …… 故事里的妖精鬼怪没有传统意义上的可怕与超能力,他们如普通人一般单纯、弱小、善良、天真、相信人间有真情。 每个属于生灵们的悲欢离合都让人既新奇又感慨,世间万物真假虚实,充满奇幻与未知……
