Looking for a novel, I forgot the name

The background of the story should be in the Republic of China. It was about the male protagonist who seemed to be a carpenter (not sure). He went to work in a village and the people in the village liked him. However, he lived in an abandoned mansion in the village. There was a female ghost in this house. The female ghost was the lover of the male protagonist in his previous life. The villagers looked very simple, but they were very bad. They wanted to make the female protagonist, the female ghost, die. There was a popular play in the village. It was to hang from a very high stool with white flour. After watching this play at night, one would go home without looking back. The villagers used this play to harm the female protagonist, and the male protagonist went to save her. Later on, he told the story of the male lead and the female lead in their previous lives, and the plot of what human shares they used to make dice.
That was about all that he remembered. He didn't know if he could find it.
