In this world, archaeology is as popular as being an internet celebrity is today. Zhang Lin suddenly transmigrates and finds a storyteller's System in his hands. All he has to do is tell stories to receive all kinds of rewards.
"The iron-willed soldier, the opera virtuoso, the mysterious old man with a cane, and the King of Hell, the prodigal, and the smiling Buddha."
"Here in old Changsha, there are nine families who make a living digging up ancient tombs. People call them the Old Nine Gates."
"The Upper Three Gates are respectable, the Middle Three Gates are a little shady, and the Lower Three Gates come from merchant families."
"It all began fifty years ago, when the old master of the Wu family encountered that blood corpse tomb at Biaozi Ridge."
Zhang Lin reveals the secrets of the Old Nine Gates right from the start. Then,
"When the Qilin goes berserk, even corpse puppets have to kneel. King Mu sought immortality, but it was all an empty dream!"
"The ten-year pact is almost here. Will the one who made the promise still be waiting before the Bronze Gate?"
He goes on to reveal the ten most terrifying ancient tombs, the ten greatest tomb-raiding techniques, and the ten strangest monsters found in tombs. From the tomb-raiding sects of the north and south, the Moving Mountains, Relocating Mounds, Touching Gold, and Unloading Ridges, to all kinds of little-known tales, he brings them to light through his storytelling.
Little by little, Zhang Lin also uncovers the deepest secrets: the true stories buried by history!
What the heck is "to the nineteenth"? Is it some kind of popping candy? How many chapters have been skipped?
That's incredibly imaginative! I'm truly impressed.
I'm here to give the author some encouragement! (I haven't read the plot yet, I'll give it a more accurate rating later, but I'll start with four stars.)
