    The opening chapter is pure Chinese horror, the horror atmosphere is well rendered, and it always gives people the fear of being picked up, and the result is. . . No more spoilers. A truly supernatural and ghost-haunted Mugen flow, with cheats but a restrained, growth-oriented protagonist. The elements of zombies are generally not scary, they are exciting, but in this zombie dungeon, you can first play the toilet to see ghosts. It is like the horror stories I read when I was a child. It has a very retro sense of horror, and it is exciting to see real ghosts!

[A little horror + a whole lot of comedy + no female lead, no romance] When I was a kid, I took a nighttime shortcut and saw a weasel worshipping the moon. Remembering a story my grandma had told me, I worried it might ask me to grant it a title, so, on a whim, I shouted at it first: “Weasel! Do I look more like a person or a god to you?” The weasel froze for a moment, then said I looked like a dumbass! But from that day on, I really did become an idio 29.3kReads9.1Score2.7kShelves

    It's both scary and funny. I wouldn't dare keep watching it if it didn't include gags. I watch it for a while and take a break. Chinese horror is really scary [crying]

What’s truly frightening are the things people can’t get past in their hearts. All I do is help them say what needs to be said and settle their debts once and for all.

    It's super good. The first part has Northeastern language in it. It's very interesting. The second part is not to mention. I've already finished the third one and I'm currently finishing the fourth one (the second one is at 7🐈 called Yin Yang Craftsman). The fourth one doesn't like to watch the lightning protection of the two male protagonists. The eighth part is full of work. I will regret it if I don't read it. The other ones are also super good. I will introduce them one by one [KISS]
