My name is Yang Ling, codenamed Xiaoyang, 28 years old, file number 749-07-1997, and a registered blood member of Bureau 749.
I was born in a Miao village in western Hunan, and was later adopted by the 749 Bureau. I have known since I was a child that my family has a special past - my ancestors were the last generation of exorcists in the late Qing Dynasty. This bloodline has left the most unique imprint on me: the purity of cinnabar in my blood is as high as 92%, and it can awaken sleeping ancient magic weapons. It seems that I am born with some kind of bond with those old objects.
The turning point was when I was 12 years old. No one could activate the bronze compass in the Bureau that had been suppressed for many years. However, when I accidentally touched it with the blood of my fingertips, I watched the Bagua lines on the copper plate light up little by little. From that day on, I became the only person who could control this compass, and I officially embarked on the road of dealing with evil spirits.
But I also have a problem that I can't get rid of: I trust my intuition too much. Every time I encounter a strange taboo object, I can't help but want to reach out and touch it. I know I might get hurt, but I still can't control it. For this reason, I suffered a lot in the mission. In the bureau's medical file, my injury record is probably ranked among the top three.
