I Have a Volume of Shangqing Book

These days, no one has a side job. Liu Yuan's side job is to travel to the Southern Dynasties to become a Taoist priest. There is no system, no invincible cultivation, and no destiny. He was just an ordinary person. He took with him a mutilated Shangqing book, a few Yunzhuan scripts that sometimes worked and sometimes failed to work, and a piece of rebar that he picked up. With Zhao Chengyang's name, he broke into a world where county records were not recorded and dead people spoke. Mass graves, ghost counties, life extensions, ghost deeds, cannibalism in deserted villages... There are troubled times here, and there are also monsters. Some people feed living people to evil spirits, some kill people just for a morsel of food, and some debts have been buried for decades and still refuse to be broken up even after death. Liu Yuan would not turn a bad situation into a good one, and no one would tell him the truth. He will be afraid, get hurt, make wrong judgments, and when his life is really at stake, he will grab the only thing he can hold on to and fight to survive. But gradually, he discovered that the hanged man remembered the modern year, and the ancient evil spirits also knew things that did not belong to this era. Those old cases buried in the county annals are being replayed in two eras at the same time. Some ghosts can be saved. Some people are more difficult to deal with than ghosts. And that scroll of Shangqing Shu seems to be just teaching an ordinary person how to live his or her own life in a troubled world, between ghosts, gods, and human hearts. Why rely on the ladder when you can become your own wings?
