   Female protagonist: Lan Lu. Her identity is a thousand-year-old ghost immortal. This book is composed of a series of supernatural events, with a coherent plot and excellent writing. Male protagonist: Shu Yuzhou, Lan Lu's adopted grandson. On Qingming Festival, he went back to his hometown to burn paper money at the graves of the wrong people, and his fate with Lan Lu began from there. Because Lan Lu is a thousand-year-old ghost immortal with powerful cultivation, the male protagonist, under her guidance, gradually becomes stronger and solves one supernatural event after another. The second novel is the best post-apocalyptic novel I've ever read. The male protagonist is bitten to death by a zombie at the beginning and becomes a zombie himself. The book ends there. (Not really.) After being bitten by a zombie, the male protagonist dies for a while, then comes back to life. Moreover, he can control himself and become a zombie. He can also switch between human and zombie forms. Then he awakens the ability to absorb energy, allowing him to kill zombies and absorb their blood energy to strengthen his own zombie form's physical abilities. Later, it was discovered that the zombies' brains contained a crystal core, similar to the inner core of a demon beast in fantasy novels. Consuming this brain crystal core could transform the protagonist into an evolved being, strengthening his human form. It could also awaken different superpowers in humans. In other words, the protagonist would have a powerful physical body in his zombie form and powerful superpowers in his human form. Let's see how the protagonist and his followers treat the zombie crystal core like candy [thinking] and how they develop and expand their post-apocalyptic survivor camp! [Thinking][thinking]
