   The Emperor of Fengdu was very "thoughtful," providing her with the necessary ID card and household registration for her "forgery." Aside from that, he didn't give her a single coin. Seeing an official reward notice of 20,000 yuan, she accepted the job and indeed received the reward. Knowing the money wouldn't run away, Shi Yi's mood improved considerably. However, the thought of not having dinner that night and meals for the next six days made her melancholy again. Should she go back to the underworld and stay for six days before coming back up? Shi Yi was a person with exceptional execution skills; the moment the idea formed in her mind, she felt it was feasible. She left the police station and went straight to the public restroom a hundred meters away, found an empty stall, closed the door, and tore open a gate to the underworld with her bare hands. But as soon as her figure appeared near the Bridge of Helplessness, a powerful force transported her to the Emperor of Fengdu's three-story villa with a yard.

    Don't be fooled by the title! Wow, this book really does have a certain something special about it. I suspect the author is genuinely trying to teach us something. The feng shui, witchcraft, yin-yang, eight trigrams, and Taoist incantations are truly amazing. I even suspect the author is a Taoist priest. And the book really lives up to that feeling—the plot is fast-paced, the female lead is incredibly strong, and there's no romantic pairing.

    These are all books about metaphysics and ghost hunting, highly recommended! 🔥🔥🔥 1. The female protagonist, a combination of live streaming and offline activities, slept for 1500 years. Upon arriving in the human world, she only received two pieces of ghost money from the Emperor of Fengdu. To avoid starving, she had to catch bad guys for rewards, live streaming her fortune telling. When she encountered someone doing something wrong, she would call the police and even use a sewing machine to get them to do it. Even the police would stake out her live stream to boost their sales. 2. The non-live streaming protagonist has a great personality. She's skilled and confident in face reading, fortune telling, and feng shui. Each short story is very interesting. 3. It focuses more on justice, friendship, and family. At first, you might think the second brother is a psychologically twisted cannon fodder villain, but he turns out to be a loyal and loving person who cherishes his sister. 4. Ji He is the number one metaphysician in the cultivation world, only one step away from ascension, but she inevitably fails her tribulation. 😂 She thought she was doomed, but when she opened her eyes, she had become Ji He in another world. She's still a nobody, and to make a living, she has to rely on her skills to tell fortunes online for those she meets.

As a result, the female lead learned metaphysical skills, returned home to save her critically ill mother, changed her short-lived older brother, saved her mentally challenged younger brother, and exposed her fake grandmother. Her blindly obedient father had been mistaking a thief for his mother for many years, causing the entire eldest son's family to suffer a tragic fate.
