Whether in the book or in the play, the endless monsters not only add danger and difficulty to the protagonist's team's adventure, but also help create mystery and tension. We can't help but ask, are these magical creatures that appear in the ghost blowing lights real? What do they all look like in reality? If it is not real, is there a prototype in reality? Next, let me take you closer to these amazing animals and learn about them:
(In order to take care of everyone's reading and viewing order, the ranking is in no particular order, I will try to interpret it according to the order in which the animals appear in the Ghost Blowing Lantern series)
1. Brother Rat
Brother Rat is probably the first animal to appear in the book. The story of Brother Mouse and Grandfather Hu in the second chapter of "Jingjie Ancient City" is impressive, and the story content is a bit like the strange talk in Liaozhai Zhiyi. Although Brother Rat is not a beast of prey, he is quite humane and suffers with the grandfather of the Hu family. The rat brother here is just an ordinary house mouse, and the author's description here adds a layer of "human nature" to the ordinary house mouse. According to modern scientific research, mice do have a relatively high IQ, and their ability to survive is also among the best animals in nature. Of course, the rats mentioned in the book smoking and eating together with people, such as such a situation, can not be verified.

In Ghost Blowing Lights, the fire ladybug is supposed to be an image created by combining the phosphorus fire emitted by the corpse with the legend of the rotten fire, and at the moment of contact, it will immediately burst into flames and burn any creatures that come into contact. Fire ladybugs should actually be the light emitted by the phosphorus inside the corpse, and the legend says that it is not a ladybird but a firefly, called a rotten firefly.

Corpse incense konjac is a perennial herb of the Tiannanxing family, also known as "corpse flower", giant konjac, and it also has a more vivid name "corpse stink konjac". Legend has it that the "corpse incense konjac flower" is the evil ghost guarding The treasure of King Solomon, and this flower will create all kinds of illusions to confuse people and even kill each other. Wild giant flower konjac grows only in the rainforests of Sumatra, Indonesia. Today, the number of artificially cultivated giant flower konjac has gradually increased, making the giant flower konjac no longer a rare and rare plant. Botanists have found that giant konjac flowers only once every 7 years on average, and the time of each flowering is very short, only about two or three days. Once pollination is complete, the tall inflorescence shaft and huge Buds of the Giant Konjac collapse and begin to decay. When the bright red fruit ripens, the inflorescence axis and buddha buds are completely decayed. Ripe brightly colored fruits are devoured by the bird and spread with their droppings. In 2003, a corpse-scented konjac plant in the Bourbonne Garden in Germany broke the Guinness World Record with a height of 2.74 meters, and on October 20, 2005, the Wilhelma Zoo and Botanical Garden in Stuttgar, Germany, once again broke the record and planted a giant flower konjac with a flower height of 2.91 meters.
