[Transmigration + Southern Song + alternate history + deduction + solving crimes]
Yang Chenfeng, a 28-year-old modern engineer, wakes up to find that his soul has transmigrated into the body of a 15-year-old tavern worker in Jiangning Prefecture, in the sixteenth year of the Guangxi era of the Southern Song in a parallel universe.
To make matters worse, shortly after transmigrating, he stumbles into prison and becomes a suspect in the poisoning of a prince.
This is nothing like the transmigration stories where you become the protagonist!
But there’s no need to panic. With his superb powers of deduction, honed by reading detective novels in his past life, and help from his uncle, he clears his name.
He thinks he can finally head to Wudang to learn martial arts, but then the criminal he is investigating mysteriously commits suicide.
An engineer in the Song,
A murder case grips Jiangning.
Uncovering secrets, seeking his past,
He roams freely through the martial world.
The art style is unique, and the character portrayals are also quite good. In terms of the three main elements of a novel—plot and characters—the background story of this book is excellent, and the main character is also well-developed so far.
The beginning of this book is just setting the stage; the real investigation begins around chapter 40, starting with the first case. It only gets interesting after that. The foreshadowing is explained later on, making it a very good book, especially among historical mystery novels.
It's so good and so moving! I hope there will be more books like this. The plot is excellent, the concept is ingenious, and the background and character settings completely captivated me. It's a truly exceptional book.
I don't know what to say. I just like this book. It feels real, yet it also feels like a wild fantasy. But this book truly touched my heart.
The characters are vividly portrayed, with appropriate detail.
This book left a deep impression on me, and I look forward to more great works from the author.
This is amazing! I haven't encountered such a captivating novel in ages!
The plot is exciting, the structure is clear, and the characters are rich in imagination.
This book is engaging, with a tight plot and no unnecessary details. It is truly a superior work, and I thank the author for their hard work in presenting such a wonderful book to all readers.
Unfortunately, the poster lacks cultural knowledge; all they can say is "awesome!"
