Features: This book includes two full-length stories, "Terracotta Warriors" and "The Beauty of Manchukuo—Kawashima Yoshiko." "Terracotta Warriors" depicts a tripartite love story originating from the Terracotta Army of the Qin Dynasty. Three thousand years ago, Meng Tianfang, the imperial physician of Qin Shi Huang, fell in love with Dong'er, a child girl seeking an elixir of immortality. Due to the exposure of their secret love, Dong'er was sacrificed in the terracotta workshop, and Meng Tianfang was sealed as a terracotta statue with clay. In the 1930s, the Terracotta Warrior Meng Tianfang, imbued with the elixir, was resurrected. He encountered Zhu Lili, an actress who bore a striking resemblance to Dong'er, and the two faced life-and-death struggles with tomb raiders, rekindling their love. In the 1980s, Meng Tianfang, now a working archaeologist, renewed his romance with a pure-hearted Japanese girl. "The Beauty of Manchukuo—Kawashima Yoshiko" reenacts the enigmatic life of the female spy, "The Flower of Evil," Kawashima Yoshiko.
