【Modern suspense + reborn comeback + livestream face-slapping】
The greatest practitioner of a thousand-year-old Daoist art from Mount Longhu was reborn as a college student who had taken her own life after being bullied. Lin Qingci looked at the bruises around her neck in the mirror, then turned around and placed the Five Ghosts Curse on the campus belle.
As the whole internet mocked the idea of the supernatural, she set up a tripod, turned on a ring light, and said, “Hey, everyone! Today, I’m taking you to see something thrilling.”
A skeletal hand crawling out of a locust-wood comb. A corpse in a wedding dress, hanging upside down from the ceiling of a haunted house. A headless troll drifting across the comments, visible through the livestream camera. A million viewers saw it with their own eyes: the ghosts on her livestream were more convincing than the fake eyelashes on the influencer next door.
The Special Affairs Bureau pulled the surveillance footage in the middle of the night. Shen Yanzhi stared at the girl on screen, drawing talismans with lipstick. The cinnabar mole on his Adam’s apple burned faintly. “Investigate her family back eighteen generations.”
At midnight, a blood-red comment appeared right on schedule: 【Streamer, dare to take this job?】
At the end of a corridor in an abandoned hospital, a faceless nurse pushed a blood-soaked IV stand closer and closer. Lin Qingci tossed out three Five Emperor Coins to seal off the escape route. Suddenly, golden special effects burst across the livestream:

“Ding!”
The gong rang throughout the underworld. From the shadows, a pale hand reached out and crushed the evil spirit’s skull. Shen Yanzhi loosened his blood-soaked tie, and the soul-binding rope around his wrist coiled around her ankle. “Miss Lin, how many times do I have to remind you that you need a license to practice?”
When the moon of the fifteenth night of the seventh lunar month turned crimson, Lin Qingci leaped onto the Ghost King’s coffin, using her livestream tripod as a springboard.
As the ninth thunder tribulation shattered a thousand-year-old seal, the whole internet watched her bite her tongue and smear blood on the camera. “A scientific guide to catching ghosts”
