My name is Li Changming. The reason is simple: every fortune-teller said I was doomed to die young and had brought death to all my relatives... So I named myself Li Changming, meaning “Li Longlife.”
Ever since the day I was born, disaster kept striking our family. My eldest uncle was hit by a car and killed. My father was crushed by a boulder that fell from the sky at the mine. My mother choked to death while eating. Grandma consulted a fortune-teller, who said I was a calamity sent from the heavens and that if I wasn't killed, the Li family would have no descendants. So she tried to push me into the river to drown me, but before she could, she slipped and fell in herself, drowning.
It seems... I really am a walking disaster. So I ran. I ran and ran until I reached a desolate mountain. There,
I met my master...
