1981, the Ten Thousand Mountains of Western Hunan.
“Lu Qing! If you can’t come up with a hundred yuan, this forest land of yours is mine!” the village bully shouted arrogantly.
Lu Qing gently stroked the century-old black centipede poking its head out of his sleeve, his eyes glinting with amusement. “Sure. Just don’t expect to live long enough to take it.”
That very night, the bully was so scared he wet himself, then became a eunuch overnight and fell to his knees begging for mercy.
Using the ancestral Miao frontier’s miraculous arts in his mind, Lu Qing tames the Five Poisons with secret medicines and turns them into hunting companions.
Centuries-old ginseng and top-grade reishi mushrooms are easy to find when venomous insects follow their scent. Wild boar kings and blind bears are taken down with a single spray of venom from a poisonous python!
In this golden age, Lu Qing spends his days roaming the mountains with the Five Poisons, eating and drinking to his heart’s content, and his nights renovating his grand tile-roofed house.
Before long, the aloof educated youth and the neighbor’s sister-in-law have both set their sights on Lu Qing….

In 1981, the village bully,

Listening to this book makes my head hurt. It can be called a classic, so classic.
