Deep within the folds where the Yangtze River intersects with the Wushan and Huaying Mountains lies the Yongxing Coal Mine. In the winter of 1989, a gas explosion awakened the "Heart-Cleansing" ability of Tang Shouzhuo, an orphan of miners, allowing him to sketch fragments of the *Zhuangzi* (a Buddhist scripture) on the mine walls. As the Three Gorges Dam was built, the Xianheliang stone carvings fell into slumber, and a ferryman arrived riding the waves, his free-spirited movements echoing through the bronze. From the mine to the city, from a worker suffering from pneumoconiosis to a light rail blueprint, Tang Shouzhuo's journey of "Heart-Cleansing" blossoms in the magical reality of the mountain city, composing a legendary tale of cultivation for ordinary people.

    These two books are absolutely buried by Tomato Music. The author's writing is superb. The first book is an infinite flow story, and the beginning is incredibly exciting, fresh, and engaging. If you don't like the beginning, you can still read to the middle; the middle part is truly tear-jerking. If you like angst, you should definitely check it out. The author has tons of foreshadowing and is incredibly skilled at writing foreshadowing and angst. Near the end, I was like, "Holy crap!" The foreshadowing was so numerous it gave me goosebumps. This author has definitely risen to god-like status. His second book has a fresh theme and super, super, super good writing. On the surface, it's a lighthearted and enjoyable story about a master and disciple achieving immortality, but underneath, the angst keeps piling up until it becomes tiresome. I've already reread both books three times. If you don't like the beginning of the second book, stop and read the middle and the end; the writing is super, super good. Actually, I feel he could be in the top 10 of the best-selling books, but unfortunately, he doesn't work hard enough. He owes me 2000 extra chapters.

    Reader note

    This is my first book recommendation, and it's truly a great book, but unfortunately, the ratings are low. Fan Jin, the protagonist of the classic Chinese novel *The Scholars*, finds a strange book in his youth after passing the imperial examinations. He learns of his destiny and begins a life of aimless idleness. The characters in the book suddenly realize they are characters within the book, and their fates change—truly, "Only today do I know who I am." No system, no female lead, slow-paced. P. S.: Reading this book can yield some philosophical insights.
