After the death of the old Taoist priest, Ningde's life became increasingly difficult. One day when he saw someone on the street posting a notice saying "Heavy reward for finding a relative", he had an idea - he took out the jade pendant with the word "Ning" on his body, imitated the storyteller's story about recognizing a relative, and sent a letter to all the sects, families and dynasties in Jiuzhou who were ranked high:
"I am your lost child, and I have a jade pendant to prove it. I have been in poverty recently, so I beg you to sponsor the travel expenses to come and recognize my relatives. If I can make it, I will give you a generous reward. PS: If it is not convenient for you to claim it, you can also sponsor some spiritual stones. No matter how much you want, anyone who comes is welcome. PS: Don't ask why I gave it to so many families. The question is that I don't know whose family I belong to."

The greatest charm of this work is that it redefines "lazy".
The protagonist's "laziness" is not an escape, but an ultimate philosophy of efficiency - only doing the most important things and only exerting force at critical moments. When everyone thought he was useless, he used the least actions to achieve the greatest results.
The novel tears apart the blind worship of "diligence" in the world, and makes people think: is the real strength one who is too busy to touch the ground, or one who can see the essence clearly and hit the target with one blow?
The declaration "I am not a waste" is the self-justification of an underestimated person. When laziness becomes a disguise for great wisdom and foolishness, this work transcends the category of counterattack and cool writing and becomes a fable about introspection and awakening.
