Now Brother Huma finally doesn't run around anymore, but Brother Huma doesn't recognize Granny or Little Hongtang,” says the little girl....One night, in his dream, Hu Ma hears a faint voice coming from the smoke of a burning incense stick.“Once they discover we are Reincarnators, they will perform soul extraction and strip our bones, refining us until not even a trace is left...”“They believe we are Yin Ghosts!”
