In the neon city "Luojiu" where incense is computing power, talismans are codes, and underworld is in the clouds, the working-class version of Zhong Kui relies on a stylus and a data hoist. Between catching ghosts, taking private orders, and fighting the platform's commission, he accidentally opens a behind-the-scenes loophole in the "Tian Tiao Algorithm" and is involved in a black comedy about karma being quantified, freedom being optimized, and absurdity being everyday life.
Cyber weirdness + black humor + light intrigue; the case advances at a fast pace, and cold jokes and gags are often used to resolve the sense of oppression.
City: Luojiu (city group on the ninth floor of Luojing), the buildings are like towers, the temples are the computer rooms, and the city god is the municipal AI. The fog at night is cooling water vapor, and incense is the fuel for edge computing.
Economy: Karma credit K-Score affects everything; HellCoin is issued by HellCoin, incense is the computing power token, and yellow paper is a one-time key.
Technological principles:
Talisman = executable script, the strokes are the sequence of instructions, and a wrong stroke will trigger the "paper storm" exception.
Mantra = voice agreement. If the pitch is wrong, it will go out of tune and trigger an unknown process.
Bagua Firewall and Leibu Law Enforcement serve as network police, and Yin and Yang routes converge at the Naihe Bridge node.
Supernatural means supernormal computing: ghosts are fragments of off-net personalities or malicious net programs, and possessions are like unauthorized processes occupying interfaces.
