Strange Records of Bureau 749

Have you ever wondered whether, beneath the modern city’s towering skyscrapers, ancient and unsolved mysteries still lie in wait? Xiao Lang, a rookie investigator and former ordinary patrol officer, is pulled into a “haunted building murder case” and forced to join National Bureau 749, a secret agency hidden within the government that specializes in supernatural incidents. Carrying half of his family’s inherited Book of Yin Talismans and bearing the mysterious “spirit-splitting” constitution, he becomes a key pawn in a struggle between powerful factions. A conspiracy to transform a river dragon into a true dragon, a living corpse trapped beneath the river for a hundred years, an immortal thousand-year-old corpse cultivating immortality in an ancient tomb, the White Lotus Holy Mother’s reincarnation scheme, an ancient immortal ship hidden deep in the Helan Mountains… From the alleys of Rongcheng to the secret realms of Lushan, from the struggle for influence across the Taiwan Strait to infiltration by foreign supernatural agencies, and then to the apocalypse, the scope of the story keeps expanding. Meanwhile, within Bureau 749, the ideological war between the “Eradication” and “Coexistence” factions has reached the brink of a cliff. When his lover trades a thousand years of cultivation to give him a sliver of hope, and the immortal cultivation civilization fades away in the face of the ultimate truth, Xiao Lang must make one final choice: follow power into eternal nothingness, or protect the brief but genuine warmth of the human world? This is more than a collection of strange urban tales. It is the ultimate epic of Bureau 749, a story of “falling and flying,” of “love and immortality.”
