Please don't recommend female-oriented romance novels. I don't read those, thanks. Are there any stories about people sent to the countryside in southern China? Most period novels seem to be set in the northeast. Are there any set in the southwest or south?

It has nothing to do with thieves or tomb raiding, nor with variety shows or martial arts; it's just a story about the daily life of educated youth sent to the countryside during their time of cultivation in Northeast China. The villains are foxes, hedgehogs, rats, snakes, and weasels. It's a pretty good read, quite smooth. The story is starting to turn from daily life into a mundane chronicle. If the author doesn't add more chapters and develop more plot events, the book is doomed.
This is the first time I've read a novel where the protagonist, Pinghe, voluntarily goes to the countryside. Unlike other novels of the same genre, there's no beginning about how he hates his family, empties his family's possessions, or goes to the countryside. There's also no extensive description of what happens during his journey. I personally like this kind of beginning.
This is a very good novel. Although it's a crossover between TV series and movies, it only borrows the background. The main characters have their own lives and lifestyles. It's not about the protagonist being a nanny, a womanizer, or trying to belittle the original characters to show off or indulge in self-delusion. Keep it up! I'll keep following it! (PS: The author updates so fast, I can't keep up! 😂)
This novel is so well-written! It features a space-time ability, medical skills, martial arts prowess, and a humble character who quietly amasses wealth. This kind of novel is engaging, unlike those other novels where characters with spatial abilities go on a rampage, collecting gold and jewels from all over the world – that's too fantastical and uninteresting.
The author is incredibly intelligent. I'll say it three times: incredibly intelligent. The entire story is logically sound and demonstrates a deep understanding of human relationships. Once you start reading, you won't be able to stop. I give it a 5-star recommendation.
A truly excellent book, its title is a shame; a change to the title would easily give it a rating of over 9.0. No dull moments, the plot flows smoothly and tightly, with a captivating and interconnected storyline. The characters are well-developed. A truly rare gem!
It's a combination of educated youth going to the countryside and tomb raiding, which is quite interesting. Although there are a few minor bugs, it's still quite readable. It's just a bit short and the updates are too slow. I hope the author will continue to work hard and write better and better. Later it was discovered that it had nothing to do with tomb raiding... A story about going to the countryside to cultivate Taoism?
The logic is sound, but it's frustrating and depressing to read. The protagonist is a reincarnated person with a system and many skills. Sigh, I'll see how it develops. I'll give the author four stars and try to get it to 8.0 As encouragement!
This book is quite good. Here's a suggestion for your reference: you could consider incorporating elements of the universe, like Hong Kong supernatural films, taking a trip to America, and perhaps incorporating elements of Silent Hill. The ending could be about ascension.
It's a great read, with a historical setting, cultivation elements, and tomb raiding. But if the title is about tomb raiding, there should be some tomb raiding, right? There aren't many tomb raiding elements in the book right now. Is it because they're focusing on development for now and waiting for reform and opening up before making any big moves?
