The uncanny has returned, and forbidden horrors have descended. As ancient gods open their eyes amid the ruins, human civilization flickers like a candle in the wind. And I, Chu Ning, the only “normal person” at Qingshan Psychiatric Hospital, have just three problems to deal with:
One: When will they fix the leaking roof?
Two: What do we do when the cafeteria budget runs short again?
Three: Patient No. 8, who calls himself the “Lord of Ten Thousand Demons,” has clogged the toilet again.
Then one day, a mysterious organization calling itself the “Dragon Shield Foundation” shows up. Without a word, they wire over a huge sum of money and send in a construction crew that claims it can “build an aircraft carrier on-site.”
Chu Ning (thinking): Everything about this is suspicious. These people must be after something, probably the new Patient No. 27. Fine, I’ll take the money and fix up the hospital first. Let’s see what they’re up to. If they cause trouble, I can test out the new electric restraints.
The human-protection organization Dragon Shield (trembling): He took the money! This is a divine trial! Fixing the roof is mending the “Wound of Heaven”! Unclogging the toilet is clearing the “filth of reincarnation”! Every move he makes is a divine revelation containing the supreme Dao!
And so, the most outrageous misunderstanding in the world was born.
Chu Ning only wants to be a conscientious, frugal director, but without even realizing it, he becomes the one and only god on Earth, suppressing the gods and demons of all creation and striking fear into every forbidden being.
