Things get worse when Danny finds out he’ll have to share his room with her, and she took the top bunk!

Märchen bildet in China kein streng gesondertes Gebiet. Von den Ammengeschichten und Fabeln bis zu Göttermythen, Sagen und Novellen sind die Grenzen durchaus schwankend. Das Wunderbare gehört für China noch zum natürlichen Weltlauf, so dass hier sich keine scharfe Grenze ziehen lässt. In Schansi lebte ein Scholar, dem war es in der Gesellschaft der anderen zu lärmend. Darum schlug er seine Wohnung in einem Buddhistentempel auf. Er hatte jedoch sehr darunter zu leiden, dass in dem Raum Wanzen, Mücken und Flöhe in großer Zahl waren, so dass er die ganze Nacht nicht schlafen konnte.

He is journeying with a trade caravan bound for Lhasa when a detour brings them to a valley hidden between mountain passes. On the icy planks of a wooden bridge, a monk sits in contemplation. Closer inspection reveals that the monk is dead, apparently of a self-inflicted wound. His robes are rent, revealing a strange symbol painted on his chest.

Императорский Китай, XV век. Тань Юньсянь — аристократка, и ее судьба, как судьбы тысяч других дочерей чиновников, предопределена: однообразная жизнь во внутренних покоях, невыносимые мучения от бинтования ног, а затем — брак по договоренности и непременная обязанность родить сына. Но после смерти матери отец отправляет юную Юньсянь к своим родителям-врачам, и там, под руководством бабушки, девочка с головой погружается в изучение медицины. Согласно конфуцианскому канону врачу-мужчине нельзя видеть женщин, а женщине-врачу — соприкасаться с кровью, но кто-то же должен исцелять женские недуги!
