Tomato Has a True God
I’m looking for stories like "Asakura-kun Is a Saint on the Outside and a Demon on the Inside". Look at my reading time: I’ve earned the right to have an opinion.

I personally highly recommend this book. The numerous incantations and explanations of Yi Jing (I Ching) knowledge used in the book were not written by consulting materials; they must have been possessed by the author himself. The section on Yao Qing's discourse on Taoism, seemingly an answer to 12 fellow Taoists, is actually a way to clear up the doubts of us ordinary mortals.
This book felt like a realistic novel based on the author's own experiences from beginning to end. While some exaggeration is certainly used, everything about Taoism feels incredibly real: fortune telling, feng shui, palmistry, talismans, invoking spirits, and even detailed information about the underworld. It even made me want to become an apprentice!
Honestly, it's so exciting! The more you read, the more exciting it gets, it feels so real. But some of the stories seem a bit surreal, a little strange, but I can't quite put my finger on it. Also, aren't the spells and such written a little too clearly? 🤭🤭🤭 Update soon!!! I've read up to chapter 337. His understanding of the Dao is practically unsolvable, with comprehensive depth and breadth.
The content is terrifying; the plot isn't just scary, it's chilling! The ghost-catching methods are too realistic and simplistic! (Unlike other similar works, it deviates far from the Taoist school, which is a source of concern.) Feng shui and divination each have their own professional explanations!
A typical homebody, driven by curiosity about metaphysics, discovered this book through a short video platform. Once hooked, she couldn't put it down. Aside from the incantations, which she dared not read in their entirety, she read every reader's comment. After nearly a month of dedicated reading, she finally finished it.
This is a fantastic book, it's a pity it's not more popular yet. I think its biggest highlight is its popular science aspect, which helps ordinary people like us better understand Taoism, and some of the knowledge is even applicable in daily life (such as sleep paralysis). The book's insights into the world, its views on life, and its wisdom on human relationships are all very beneficial.
This is real Taoist writing!!! The more you read, the more professional it becomes!!!
Although the language isn't particularly ornate, every sentence is captivating, making me feel as if I were there, as if I could become a little Taoist priest exorcising ghosts any second. The storyline is complete and relatable, and the sense of immersion is strong, so the senior brother could have more scenes exorcising ghosts. When walking at night, can I use hand seals to dispel bad luck? "
I've read more than half of it. It's a great read, full of Taoist knowledge, which broadens the horizons of those of us who enjoy metaphysics. The incantations and mantras are quite realistic. Although there are storylines added, they feel very natural to the story, unlike some Taoist novels that are unrealistic and fantastical. It's a very good book.
It's incredibly authentic, almost like the author's own autobiography. Reading this book introduced me to so many things I didn't know before, it was truly astonishing and broadened my knowledge. It's also very interesting and humorous. I really love this book and hope the author continues writing! 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
