Features: The "Comprehensive Collection of Chinese Riddles" series is compiled into separate volumes by category. The collection is rich in riddle materials and contains a large amount of information, making it particularly suitable for riddle enthusiasts with a strong interest in riddles and folk literature scholars specializing in Chinese riddles. Additionally, the total word count of the entire series exceeds 2 million, resulting in a relatively high overall price. Purchasing the complete set would cost over 100 yuan in RMB, placing a significant financial burden on readers, making it difficult for the books to reach ordinary households. Riddles fall under the category of folk literature, and guessing riddles has long been one of the popular and refined cultural entertainment activities enjoyed by the Chinese people. It is highly beneficial for physical and mental health and should be widely promoted to further flourish and develop. To make riddle activities more accessible and truly integrate them into the leisure lives of the general public, more popular and engaging riddle books suitable for all ages should be provided. Some riddle creators have made extremely difficult riddles that are more suited for appreciation than guessing. If these riddles were created by others, these creators might not be able to solve them either. Those overly obscure riddles cannot be popularized among the broader riddle-loving audience and are only suitable for a small group of riddle enthusiasts to enjoy. Therefore, such riddles are not included in this book.
