Chen Ling went to the hospital for a menstrual disorder. Who could have guessed she'd be struck by disaster out of nowhere? When she opened her eyes, she had become a lovelorn farm girl with a miserable fate in the Da Gui Dynasty.
The original owner had sold herself into servitude to fund her fiance's studies, only for him to break off their engagement after passing the county-level scholar exam. Unable to bear the blow, she jumped into a well to end her life.
Chen Ling said, “Someone else can have this romance drama. I'm not taking over for her. I want to go back to the modern world.” She tried drowning, hanging herself, and jumping off a cliff, but none of them worked!
That night, Black and White Impermanence appeared and told Chen Ling her allotted lifespan wasn't over, so she mustn't try to kill herself again. They explained that she had been given another body because the two brothers had mistakenly taken the wrong soul and couldn't return it. To make amends, they would add ten years to her lifespan.
Chen Ling refused and wanted to appeal to Yama and Lady Houtu. Somehow, they tricked her into becoming a soul-catching officer of the Underworld instead.
So by day, she farms and makes money. By night, she roams between the realms with a soul-catching rope, capturing wandering spirits and getting little ghosts to run small errands for her.
She thought her days would pass peacefully, catching ghosts and making money, but she never expected this world to be far more dangerous and complicated than she'd imagined...
The story has a relaxed rhythm, the characters are vivid and three-dimensional, and there is no suspended plot.
It's great, the next episode will be even more exciting
