My name is Lu Ping'an, an “ordinary” shopkeeper who just wants to lie flat in my general store.
The good news: I’m not only an expert in Qimen Dunjia, I’m also the sole guardian stationed at a dragon-vein nexus.
The bad news: A burst pipe upstairs drove my cool, sharp-eyed, and somewhat violent policewoman neighbor into my home.
I can’t live like this!
I casually send three thugs flying, then have to tell her it was “self-defense.”
I glare at a feng shui master until he coughs up blood, then have to explain that it was “heatstroke.”
I sneak into an ancient tomb to investigate its formation, then have to lie that I went for “a walk to aid digestion.”
I wanted to hide in plain sight, but I happen to live next to a crime-solving maniac.
Lin Wanqing: (slaps a pair of handcuffs on the table) “Lu Ping'an, you call this believing in science?”
Me: (shrugs helplessly) “Officer, this really is quantum physics.”
Wait, I’m a celestial master. How did I become the prime suspect?!
