About the story

The novel talks about the adventures of a retired soldier Hu Bayi and his friends find mysterious ancient tombs in Northeast China, Xinjiang, Yunnan, Tibet, etc. The author divided tomb robbers into several factions and Ghost Blowing Candle is one of them. The members of this faction will burn a candle in the southeast corner of the tomb once entering in. When the candle dies, he must go out immediately and turn back everything he find because they believe that it means that the ghost of this tomb doesn't want you to rob.

And I also hope that Hollywood can really understand it and don't change the novel into an odd one.

Ghost here means 鬼(Gui 3) in Chinese. In Chinese's mind, once people died, people will become 鬼.
