"If the rules cannot tolerate me, I will drag the rules - and the people who make them - into hell."
Lu Chen died on the rainy night when he failed for the fifth time.
A hanging rope ended his twenty-three years of struggle and humiliation.
When he opened his eyes again, he was back seven days ago.
What was wrapped around his neck was the hemp rope that ended his life.
Only this time, the rope "came alive".
It can see the "causal thread" wrapped around everyone:
The murderous intention of the rich man is dark red, the bribes accepted by the proctor are muddy, and the unwillingness of the failed scholars is dark.
And Lu Chen's own thread had already become a knot.
"Want revenge?"
The rope whispered in his ear, sounding like a serpent's message.
"Exchange your life for their lives."
So——
In the rural examination room, he drew cursed runes on the test paper.
During Li Mansion's exorcism ritual, he used peach wood dolls to attract thousands of resentful spirits.
When his enemy turned into pus in front of everyone, Lu Chen held fifty taels of blood-stained silver and turned around to walk towards a darker road.
This road is called "the deceitful road".
Skin refining, meat refining, organ refining, blood transfusion, marrow refining - every step is accompanied by flesh and blood distortion and endless pain.
Manipulate spells, transfer cause and effect, plunder life spans, dismember corpses and ascend to immortality - every step of the way is to climb up on the bones of others.
The cult in Weixiang wanted to use him as a sacrifice, so he built the entire altar into his own cave.
The righteous heavenly master wanted to crush him to ashes, so he let the thirty-six righteous gods collectively degenerate into evil spirits.
