Strange Tales from a Chinese Studio, strong female lead, transmigration into a world of the supernatural, invincible in heaven and earth. I transmigrated into a defenseless female paper effigy maker, and everyone was waiting for my shop to go under.
But then...
With a few quick strokes, I can craft a paper figure that solves mysterious cases between the living and the dead. Give a paper horse a pair of eyes, and it can gallop along the road to the Underworld.
An evil Taoist sets up a formation for a hundred ghosts to wreak havoc at night?
Sorry, my army of Ghost Marshals from the Netherworld has already bundled him off to be reincarnated.
A royal relative has been poisoned by a deadly toxin? No problem. The Merit-Bearing Golden Lotus I burn can cleanse all karmic burdens.
While they’re still fighting over power, I’ve already used my god-tier paper-crafting skills to amass boundless merit, earning the reverence of the bigwigs in all three realms.
Don’t ask why I’m so powerful. The answer is simple: I have great results and heaps of merit, so I can walk sideways all over the Underworld!
The central hook: Rising from the most overlooked profession, paper effigy maker, to become someone revered throughout the three realms. The immense satisfaction of playing the pig to eat the tiger.
