   🌟Both are great!!! ①The male lead is visiting his ancestors' graves🧎, but he mistakes one ancestor for another, taking a female ghost for his own ancestor; there are supernatural elements. ②The male lead doesn't follow traditional ghost-catching methods; he uses whatever is most useful. The female lead has a natural ability to see ghosts; they are a perfect match for ghost-catching.

    I can't stand any male protagonist flirting with other women in male-oriented novels; I have extremely high standards of moral and psychological purity. The first book features a decisive and highly intelligent male protagonist whose master is a powerful figure in Sichuan (a powerful figure in charge of supernatural events). He's liked the female protagonist since childhood, but she often makes him do chores and squanders his allowance, leaving him without money for cigarettes and forcing him to roll his own. However, if anyone harms her, he'll ensure that person's entire family is executed and buried in a terrible place—you'll see when you read it. The second book, which I recommended before, features a male protagonist who was King Zhou in his past life, and a female protagonist who was Daji in hers.

    The female protagonist is thrown into a horror/supernatural novel by an unreliable system. The system throws down a "strategy guide," leading her to believe it's a romance novel [laughs]. Mini-lesson: As a wealthy heiress, she's the type to be pursued and fawned over, not the other way around. So, at Red Moon Campus, a boy with bandages wrapped around his face laughs as he turns the campus into a living hell, reveling in the terror. Then, "she jumps out, points at him arrogantly, and says: 'I think you're pretty good-looking, so I'll give you a chance to pursue me.' Pretty good-looking? The boy, with his ghostly beauty, is quite surprised! The monsters lurking in the shadows are waiting for this reckless woman to be devoured, but then the plot seems to take a strange turn…"

Rural areas are vast and sparsely populated, with too little human presence to suppress what lurks beneath the ground. That's why ghost stories and strange legends keep cropping up.

    It's completely finished. Many plot points were cut due to sensitivities, but the romance is incredibly sweet. The female lead accompanies the male lead from childhood to adulthood. Later, the male lead leaves for several years to protect her. A supporting female character has always liked the male lead, but he only sees her as a friend. They later enter into a fake marriage, not out of love but to gain power for revenge. The male lead is absolutely devoted, and the second female lead is extremely envious of the female lead. The plot is also very thrilling and exciting, definitely worth watching.
