My left eye sees every side of the world; my right sees evil spirits and ghosts.
I’m Zhang Yunling, the ninth-generation evil-suppressing master. I should be pretty incredible...
But the reality is… my family’s ancestral art of evil suppression is lost, my parents have vanished under mysterious circumstances, and my grandfather ran off with all the money, leaving me buried in loan-shark debt. I’m so broke I pay for meals with hell money. And just after I get out of the police station, a sentient scalpel stabs straight through my chest.
As I hover on the brink of death, two shadows drift out of the ancient painting in the hall.
“Hey, Zhang Yunling, you finally kicked the bucket.”
“The Zhang family’s nine-aperture virtuous heart and invulnerable body make them immortal, but you were born with one aperture missing. No wonder you got stabbed.”
“Good thing you got stabbed! It filled in the aperture you were missing!”
One stab breaks the curse, and all nine apertures open!
The Black-Gold Evil-Suppressing Token recognizes me as its master. The complete art of evil suppression is poured into my mind, and the Wuchang manifestation takes form around me!
From then on…
I, Zhang Yunling, have Wuchang at my side, and all evil bows before me.
A murderous evil-spirit scalpel, an ancient painting of a ghost bride who marries men, a notebook that turns on its owner, a ghost snake that devours shadows, a sound-stealing bird that takes people’s voices…
An evil doll obsessed with perfection, a postman who delivers bad luck, a graduation photo with one extra person, a coat that peels off people’s skin, a phonograph that cries at midnight, a family portrait where the faces have disappeared, a pillow that makes nightmares come true…
And the strangest one of all: an hourglass that reverses time. Every time it turns, someone vanishes without a sound.
Unheard-of horrors are watching you from the shadows.
I’m Zhang Yunling, and I deal exclusively with the most dangerous evil.
If you’ve run into something supernatural, don’t come to me. I charge a lot.
(But you can click in and watch. I look pretty cool when I’m taking down evil spirits.)
The setting is novel and I'm hooked. I've finished reading the author's other two books.
Chapter 18, 19. Just start fighting openly and openly on the street. This is modern society.
Very good looking, highly recommended
