Demons and Gods in Ming: Starting with Erlang Shen
In the fortieth year of the Jiajing reign, the Tartars invade the border and firewood and rice grow expensive, yet a legend has spread through the capital:
If three sticks of incense are lit before the stove, a poor family can obtain warmth for one night.
Some say it is the Stove God manifesting, some say it is the Great Emperor Huaguang descending, and others say it is sorcery at work.
Only Gu Wen knows that this so-called miracle is nothing more than him sitting before the stove and distributing fire to one household after another.
Until one day, the Stove God says to him in a dream:
“Young man, there is just too much incense here. This old man really can’t take it all in.”
