(Pure romance, not danmei)
Synopsis:
She transmigrates and finds herself in the final years of the Shang Dynasty.
After Lady Yin, who has been pregnant for three years, saves her, Ming Chi has nowhere else to go, so she stays by Lady Yin’s side to care for her.
After Nezha is born, Ming Chi stays by his side to look after him.
There are many versions of Nezha’s legend in history and in television dramas, and Ming Chi never makes irrational judgments about anyone or anything.
Chentang Pass lies near the East Sea, and many boys and girls have gone missing there since childhood.
The East Sea, relying on its power over the waters, runs rampant and oppresses the fishermen.
After obtaining his magical weapons, Nezha bathes in the East Sea, throwing its waters into turmoil.
He kills the Sea Yaksha and Ao Bing, the Third Prince of the East Sea, then pulls out Ao Bing’s dragon sinews to make a belt for Li Jing.
Ming Chi realizes that the world she is in is a world of mythology.
And she is a modern high school student, raised on a scientific education.
The plot of an animated story she once watched on television is unfolding right before her eyes.
To keep the Dragon King of the East Sea from taking his anger out on Chentang Pass, Li Jing forces Nezha to take his own life.
Nezha cuts the flesh from his body to return it to his father, and scrapes away his bones to return them to his mother.
Taiyi Zhenren gathers his soul and gives him a body made of lotus flowers.
To rebuild Nezha’s body, he needs the people’s worship and offerings of incense.
Ming Chi joins Lady Yin in building a temple for Nezha and urging the people to worship him.
But Li Jing believes Nezha does not deserve the people’s reverence, so he suppresses the temple.
This nearly causes Nezha’s rebuilt body to fail.
With no other choice, Ming Chi leaves Chentang Pass at Lady Yin’s request and goes elsewhere, using her money to build temples for Nezha.
Ming Chi burns incense for him for three years, praying sincerely every day.
She thinks there is nothing wrong with calling Nezha a hero who fought against feudalism and patriarchy.
