   Reader note

   The first book is highly recommended, with the author updating three chapters daily!! Initially, the protagonist only wanted to take an exam and agreed to come to the Daomu Biji world. To ensure the protagonist wouldn't die in the Daomu Biji world, the system created a virtual environment for the protagonist to practice in before entering the real world, making up for any regrets. The plot is also hilarious. The second book, I would call it the new "Nanpai Sanshu"!! The characters are all well-developed, and the protagonist himself has flesh and blood, not forced into the protagonist group (the young Wu Fang). He also has his own unpleasant side. The third book is super funny!! It's been continuously serialized. At first, the protagonist came to the Daomu Biji world to live a retired life, but as everyone knows, it's impossible to truly retire. He encounters the strongest character and Hei Xiazi at the beginning and gets caught up in their schemes… The fourth book, as the title suggests, is about the protagonist playing a game and thinking everyone is an NPC. Some parts are hilarious, and some are quite heartbreaking; it's worth recommending. The fifth book is for girls!! It's also very worth reading! Arriving in Hangzhou, the protagonist encounters Hei Xiazi. To survive, he has his fortune told by Hei Xiazi. Later, he tries to find Wu Xie, only to discover that Wu Xie is a reincarnated character from the Sand Sea series, hahaha!

    It's not finished yet, so I'm not entirely sure, but currently there's no romance. I highly recommend the first book, which follows the Nine Gates storyline. The author just started writing the second part, and it's very good. I wonder if it will develop into a romance novel. The second book's protagonist thinks he's in a holographic game and has two accounts: one opens a strange tales shop in Hangzhou, becoming the mysterious boss Wu Xie talks about, and the other becomes Xiao Ge's (a character from a popular Chinese novel) master. It's still very good so far. The third book is one I recently read, focusing on family relationships within the Nine Gates (in my opinion, I don't ship any characters). There's very little tomb raiding perspective, and it's more of a heartwarming slice-of-life story (I'm looking for something like this, please recommend some). The fourth book is about the Zhang family's chosen one from a thousand years ago finally returning from an infinite flow world, only to find that the Zhang family has long since fallen, so he embarks on a journey to find his clan. It's about Xiao Ge. Personally, I think the second volume isn't as good as the first (this one is also family-oriented, but it has a tomb raiding perspective; the tomb raiding perspective gradually diminishes in the later parts of the first volume, which focuses on rebuilding the Zhang family). I strongly recommend the first book; I can't find a substitute right now, it's incredibly good!!!

    🌈🌈These two are fanfictions of the Tomb Raider Chronicles series that I read before. They're not romantic pairings, but the plots are quite engaging. In the first book, the male protagonist, Wang Ze, is given a highly poisonous drug by the Wang family; even eating a rice dumpling will cause it to corrode from the inside out. It's very good, very good! The relationship between the protagonist and the female lead is a love-hate one. [Thumbs up][Thumbs up][Thumbs up]
