An alternate-history setting with a wuxia veneer and a comedic heart. It's a shadow-puppet show of martial arts fantasy set in the real world, and its sole purpose is to entertain and amuse.
A written story aiming for the effect of making people laugh, with a focus on wild, irreverent comedy.
You don't need to think too hard to enjoy it, but you can read it with your brain switched on, too.
Random crossovers + internet memes + anime + wuxia + comedy + classic movie and novel quotes + sheer mischief.
It's all about wild ideas, with no politics, entertainment-industry gossip, or other sensitive internet topics. The story is meant to spread positive energy, so readers, please don't take anything personally. Any resemblance is purely coincidental.
A young gigolo named Fan Binbin, who nearly got that very name, becomes the useless young master's useless pageboy to save his childhood sweetheart from being forced to take clients. But then he gets caught up in a series of deadly martial-arts-world incidents involving the "Black and White Fiends." To put an end to the bloodshed and settle all the feuds, the young master and his pageboy team up as the "Useless Brothers" and get into one absurd, hilarious scrape after another.
The martial arts world isn't just about grudges and fighting. It's also about pretending to be crazy without actually being stupid, and a ragtag leading cast that's genuinely foolish...
Though I personally feel this book is about to go off the rails, as the title says, I'll do my best to save it. I hope readers will bear with me.
