Description

Xiao Gui never believed what the villagers said about his family name Gui or Ghost being unlucky. After his mother disappeared, he thought maybe they were right. A chance to live and study kung fu at Shaolin Temple could be a way of changing his fate. It will require extraordinary strength and determination. Will he be able to change his life if he masters the kung fu at the 1500-year-old temple of Shaolin? How will he find his mother who disappeared from their small village in Henan province when China is one of the largest countries in the world? Xiao Gui has to do something in a world that appears to be filled with unfairness and cruelty.
