Juan Shuliang, who lived in the Xiashui district, was a foolish and craven coward.
One day, he was hurrying on his journey in the moonlight. When he lowered his head, he saw his own shadow behind him and thought it was an evil ghost crouching on the ground. He grew very nervous. Then, when he lifted his head, he saw his own hair and thought it was another ghost standing there.
Believing that two ghosts were following him, Juan Shuliang was scared out of his wits and started to run. He ran wildly without stopping. Upon arriving home, he died from fright and exhaustion.
