The plot is perfectly crafted, neither rushed nor drawn out, making for a relaxed and enjoyable read, like savoring a fine vintage wine, its unique flavor flowing gently between the lines. These days, whether you're a student or a young person, everyone has their share of pressure, right? This book is a haven from the hustle and bustle. I remember when I first started reading it, I was living the monotonous life of online classes, every day repetitive and boring. But since discovering this book, reading a chapter or two each day is like enjoying tea with an old friend in my leisure time—the serene joy is indescribable. The author is incredibly dedicated, sometimes writing until 1 or 2 AM just to bring us three updates a day. Sometimes, even after finishing early, they'll add extra chapters, giving us readers a little surprise. Keep in mind, this author is only in their twenties, yet so hardworking and responsible—how could such a good book be anything less than excellent? Some people might give up after the third chapter, but I want to say that sometimes you just need to persevere a little longer and read a book attentively; you might reap unexpected surprises. I was a little disappointed at first, but I persisted, and it turned out the book didn't disappoint. It brought rich rewards for my perseverance. So, reading sometimes requires persistence and trust in the author. When things are so good up to the beginning, a sudden turn of events might mean a surprise is waiting for you; it just depends on whether you can continue reading and discover it attentively. I believe this book will only get better, and the author will eventually become famous. At least in my heart, this book is already the most attractive and enjoyable work I've ever read.

    Guys, give my own story a try! It's not mindless action or melodramatic plot; it's just some eerie stories from Sichuan during the Republican era, interspersed with Sichuan cuisine and old tales of the Gelaohui (a secret society). If you think it's passable, please recommend and support it. Thank you so much!
