Chen Mo just wanted to make enough to get by.
When he inherited the dilapidated old house and funeral shop in the south of town, he thought this was all life had in store for him: muddle through funeral arrangements, draw a few crude talismans, and somehow scrape by.
Then he took on the Li family’s funeral in the south of town.
After he burned a pair of creepy, unpainted paper mourners, footsteps, wet with midnight rain, came knocking on the old house’s door.
Bloodstained crock rims, eyeless paper figures, strange noises from inside coffins, suffocating, deep-purple grinning faces... One uncanny, sinister incident after another dragged Chen Mo into a dark vortex beyond anything he had ever imagined.
Forced to open the battered Hundred Explanations of Yin Talismans left behind by Uncle Wang, he came face-to-face with the dangerous backlash and forbidden power hidden behind the talismans.
The icy, violent power of the Evil God House-Warding Talisman, the pure, cool touch of the Spirit-Calming Talisman, the Ghost-Eye Stone’s ability to peer into secrets, the ancient Nuo dance performed in a costume from a dry well... In this eerie world where the “Darkening” had arrived, yang was waning, yin was growing, and evil spirits were on the rise, Chen Mo realized that Uncle Wang had taught him barely the basics.
To survive, and to protect the gifted yet naive girl by his side, he had to travel this path of talismans, rife with deadly evil and backlash, using his battered body as fuel and his will as fire, struggling onward at the edge of life and death.
It's well written, but don't waste your remaining blood everywhere.
Very novel and pretty
Very beautiful, come on💪
This book has a female protagonist and the plot is closer to reality
It's really beautiful and makes people want to watch it.
It's still pretty, but a little bit poisonous.
The pace is fast, I hope the protagonist will become more and more powerful
Good looking, good luck to the author
Be more detailed. The writing is good. The description of the ghosts should be more detailed.
The pace of this book may be a bit weird in the early stages, but once the protagonist really learns his abilities, the writing is quite good. Just don't be a eunuch.
