Keeper of the Folklore Museum

After his family falls into decline, antique dealer Lin Tianming arrives in the rumor-filled Renjia Town with the [Spirit Artifact Collector System], which he activated by chance. He takes over the town's most haunted shop, right next to the funeral home. He has no intention of opening a store or doing business. Instead, he insists on creating an unprecedented “folklore museum.”

When Uncle Nine first meets him, he decides the young man is on the wrong path, relying on external objects and bound to bring disaster upon himself.

Yet when vengeful spirits wreak havoc and zombies come knocking, everyone sees what happens:

A bloodstained opera robe transforms into the phantom of a famous performer, whose plaintive song makes every ghost weep;

A silent compass becomes a sharp-tongued guide, locating dragon veins and burial sites while pointing the way to safety;

Even a cursed coffin from the West is inscribed with talismans on the inside and used to fight the enemy with its own methods, becoming the museum's prized exhibit.

Lin Tianming doesn't cultivate spells. He cultivates a heart for “things.” With his spirit-seeing eyes, he examines the joys and sorrows of ages past; with clever hands and a craftsman's care, he resolves century-old grievances. His museum doesn't shelter lifeless objects, but spirits from the past, each waiting to be heard and healed.

When evil cultivators covet his collection, great demons close in, and even the earth-shattering calamity of a collapsing dragon vein descends, Uncle Nine wields his peachwood sword and calls upon the righteous energy of heaven and earth. Lin Tianming stands in his museum, with countless spirits awakening behind him.

He smiles. “Don't be afraid. We've got quite a collection here.”

This is the story of a restorer who uses cultural relics to tell a tale, showing how warmth can tame horror and how a legacy can bring chaos to an end.
