Summary
Xie Lian was incurably stupid.
It was the only conclusion he could come to, after waking and dying and waking and dying and waking and dying.
How had he managed to convince himself that there was more to the rest of his life than this?
He’d already lost track of the number of times he’d reawakened here back in the coffin.
Had he ever actually left the coffin?Or:
After the events of canon, Xie Lian finds himself back in the coffin. This turn of events is generally unwelcome and unpleasant.

Summary
Well, Xie Lian certainly feels fine. His spiritual energy reserves remain untouched. His physical form, as healthy as ever. And his mind, unfettered and free of worldly disturbances.
There was only one slight… nuisance.
He couldn’t seem to stop speaking today.
Xie Lian gets afflicted with a particularly troublesome truth-telling curse from a malicious spirit. Hua Cheng deals with it.

Xie Lian finds Yin Yu at the small reflecting pond behind Paradise Manor.
"Yin Yu," he says gently, sitting next to him.
"Your Highness."
"Could you tell me what San Lang was like, before he found me again? How did you two meet?"
Yin Yu looks down into the pond, watching the ripples distort his face.
"It's a long story," he says quietly, and begins.Or: how Yin Yu met Hua Cheng, how the two of them met Black Water, and what Yin Yu learned about unconditional love and revenge along the way.

Summary
Hua Cheng lowers his hand, and both Feng Xin and Mu Qing crash to the floor. Feng Xin winds up with rugburn on his cheekbone and a dislocated shoulder, getting the better end of the deal than Mu Qing, whose nose is gushing blood between his fingers. Payback for earlier, at least—but his satisfaction is short-lived when Xie Lian hiccups a sob on the divan and then breaks into a string of rapid cries so panicked they sound painful. He slaps at the cushions of the divan, terror escalating, eyes wide open.
“Help, help, help, help,” he gasps between cries. “Help me. Help me. Please. Please!”
When a tongueless spirit appears in the south and curses ghosts, gods, and mortals alike with catatonia, Hua Cheng, Mu Qing, and Feng Xin must work together to solve the mystery behind the curse and save Xie Lian from the horrors ravaging his mind.
They may never find a cure, however, if the villagers plagued by the spirit don’t stop lying to them at every turn.
