Zhao Chen, a modern history major who couldn't be bothered with college, unexpectedly scores a copy of The Maoshan Secret Records and a Spirit-Suppressing Jade. But at the height of his excitement, a truck sends him flying. His soul transmigrates to the Kaiyuan era of the High Tang, and he becomes “Zhao Dogshit,” a down-and-out pauper on the verge of starving to death outside Chang'an. He plans to keep his head down and scrape by, but soon discovers his golden finger holds hidden surprises: The Maoshan Secret Records lets him draw talismans to ward off evil, read the land, and tell fortunes; the Spirit-Suppressing Jade can store items and warn him of danger, and even comes with half a bottle of cola and a lighter. This transmigration is off to a solid start!
